What the 49ers said after losing to the Jaguars

The ers got Brock Purdy back after a two-week absence but turnovers and missed opportunities were too much to overcome in losing to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday at Levi s Stadium Now the ers are - and headed to Los Angeles on a short week for Thursday night s showdown against the Rams who also are - after rallying past the Colts on Sunday San Francisco ers quarterback Brock Purdy runs with the ball while looking for an open receiver in the second quarter of their NFL battle at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara Calif on Sunday Sept Jose Carlos Fajardo Bay Area News Group It was the first event without star defensive end Nick Bosa who suffered a knee injury in last Sunday s - win over the Arizona Cardinals Purdy passed for yards and two touchdowns but completed of attempts and was intercepted twice He also fumbled once Christian McCaffrey caught six passes for yards and rushed times for yards Rickey Pearsall had four catches for yards before leaving the event after aggravating a knee injury Here s what the Niners had to say about the loss Kyle Shanahan On the club s potency level I thought our power was fine I think rhythm was tough allegedly with the four turnovers and I think we had one punt in each half It s tough to overcome those four turnovers and then you give up a punt return for a touchdown and then we didn t get any But still had a chance to win that had the ball with two and a half minutes left down five I believe around the yard-line But then had another turnover On Purdy s play We ve all got to do better He had a few good plays in current times but we all got to do better the present day On Purdy being rusty after missing two weeks I saw specific inconsistency with our whole offense We moved the ball but really killed ourself on four different turnovers Two were fumbles and two were picks One was off a tip One was just out of reach of Christian McCaffrey is what it looked like On challenging a rd and call in the first half I thought it had a chance to be reversible So we took our shot on it It was a huge momentum change there And thought it was worth taking it On ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh and Jags head coach Liam Coen exchanging words after the competition presumably about Saleh suggesting Jacksonville steals signs Saleh tried it up but I don t see what happened so I m not sure Don t think you should be that sensitive about it But is what it is I m not to worry about it On the severity of Rickey Pearsall s knee injury We re not sure yet On if there is anything the special teams can do better Yeah tackle the guy On Upton Stout s interception which was wiped out when he was called for defensive pass interference It looked like a hell of a play San Francisco ers head coach Kyle Shanahan talks to NFL referee Clete Blakeman in the second quarter of their NFL event at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara Calif on Sunday Sept Jose Carlos Fajardo Bay Area News Group On the defense s first championship without injured Nick Bosa I have to watch the tape and I know we didn t get any sacks and stuff but you know I thought their main thing was they ran the ball They got various explosives in the run encounter especially I think they got a yard or something like that So I think that is tough to generate pass rush whey they are depending on the run like that And it looked like they had way too multiple quick throws that that we need to be more competitive on The quarterback got the ball out of his hands fast and when you do that there s not a great number of opportunities for sacks On the Jaguars being a trap competition with the match against the Rams on Thursday We didn t think it was a trap championship at all We knew they were a good company and we knew we d have to play really well and regardless of what we did playing-wise when you have four turnovers and get zero that s kind of obsolete but you can t let one become two We got a battle here in four days Guys got to get home get to sleep start recovering right away and we ll get the players in on Tuesday On games without an interception dating to last season We got to catch one We ve had our hands on to me at least one each championship When we get an opportunity to do it we got to make sure to come down with it On the not scoring in the red zone We had two chances in the red zone that I believe we should have scored on We didn t get it done but I believe it was there On Purdy s five turnovers in two games It s two games so there s no absolute to what the challenge is Turnovers happen On if it was a strategy to suggest the Jaguars steal signs and get their coaching staff angry Yeah really we don t totally care if coaches are pissed off I mean that s has no effect on a championship So I think Saleh was paying him a big compliment what they re good at doing It s not illegal Stated nothing is illegal about it I think when you use the word sign stealing and what headlines get with those type of words I think then the perception of that becomes wrong and I don t think that was the goal On any updates to try and agreement or sign another defensive lineman to replace Bosa Yeah you don t replace Bosa Brock Purdy On the four offensive turnovers I mean we can t do it it s the NFL and it starts with me Throwing better balls and being smart with the ball and I just got to be better But outside of that like as an offense like it s something that we harp on every single day and our organization knows it offense requirements to protect the ball defense demands to go take it That s our thing And so in the present day the offense we just we didn t succeed in that area It hurts It s the NFL man If you give the ball away like that teams are going to capitalize on it and Jaguars did so On how he felt physically I felt good Thought I was able to go out and play quarterback and give our unit a chance So that s that On his mechanics possibly being a little off because of his toe injury I m not really sure I think just getting back out there and throwing and getting into a rhythm you know being down two weeks coming back and feeling out my body and everything obviously how my toe feels And so honestly I don t know the answer to that but I m gonna watch this film look at my mechanics and be real with myself and try to fix that San Francisco ers quarterback Brock Purdy walks off the field after fumbling the ball in the fourth quarter of their NFL contest at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara Calif on Sunday Sept The Jacksonville Jaguars defeated the San Francisco ers - Jose Carlos Fajardo Bay Area News Group On pounding the grass in frustration after his fourth quarter fumble It was just the whole thing you know for us to turn the ball over like that throughout the championship and then have a chance to win the competition at the end our defense just played their butt off and gave us a chance And then you know we get the ball rolling and then we had an opportunity to possibly take a shot and go deep and and then obviously the ball goes on the ground And I just I was mad over everything the opportunity we had right there to get back in the encounter what we had done all day for myself with the ball Just frustrated in the moment for sure On not scoring touchdowns in red zone situations It s tight windows And you know you ve got to capitalize when there s an opportunity down there in the red zone Those are crucial plays and drives And you know obviously we can settle for a field goal and be smart with the ball but at the same time like if there s an opportunity to tally we ve got to do that Especially pull away and to put pressure on the other association so that s the stuff that we have to be better at as an offense and start with quarterback with myself We ve got to be better Speaker So voting question when it comes to how you felt getting back out there did you feel that you were kind of settling back into being in contest time action and maybe that contributed at all to like the mistakes that were made and then you had a few new faces out there that have become what you know that are now wide receivers with you guys that weren t out there when you were healthy Did that at all I know Kendrick talked about the fact that he kind of blamed himself for dropping the ball Do you think either of those things kind of contributed On chemistry with a largely new group of receivers We re in the NFL you can go out practice get our reps in and go out in the competition and get ready to roll There s no other excuse We ve just got to keep moving together and you know making sure the operation the plays we re playing together those are things that we re just going to have to continue to grow together with It s nothing really more than that but we ll be just fine I know it s early in the season and this one sucks but we re going to learn from our mistakes We got a quick turnaround and we ll be ready to roll On a short week to prepare for the Rams Any Thursday night battle is perpetually a little tough when you only have you know three days really to get ready and let your body get back into it and try to heal up quick and then go out and perform and win an NFL match It s not easy but I know we can do it We ve done before and we re all hungry The vibe in that locker room is we just want to get out and play again and clean clean things up So we re gonna take it one day at a time Fred Warner On the play of the defense We took too long to get going That first half was was not good enough You know the explosive runs leaky yardage I think in the second half it was it was better but still not up to our standard You know guys need to know where they re fitting getting on and off blocks making tackles wrapping up We obviously need to be better on that going into this week On the possible of it being a trap competition No not at all I think you know that s a great football association right there And we didn t play good enough to win that meeting at all You know the fact that we were even still in that contest you know down five with an opportunity to win it Having been down - at that point in the turnover battle and allowing the special teams touchdown you would have thought that we d be getting blown out by to at that point right On bouncing back We gotta find techniques on defense to take the ball away We gotta play way better run defense And luckily it s a short week so we get to correct that right away On playing without Bosa Obviously we knew the challenges without having Nick out there But I wouldn t say there was a certain feel out there that was noticeable I mean of discipline you want one of your best players to be out there but I don t know if they event planned us any different If we play together all on the field we ll get exactly what we need Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Travis Hunter leaps to catch a pass against the San Francisco ers in the second quarter of their NFL challenge at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara Calif on Sunday Sept Jose Carlos Fajardo Bay Area News Group Jose Carlos Fajardo Bay Area News Group On how the group should react to the loss Short term memory You ve got to put it behind you but you need to learn from why did we lose this competition We ve got to clean things up on all three phases and we ll give ourselves plenty of chances to win going forward This is the first contest The band played without Nick How do you feel like the organization came from generating pressure without him Christian McCaffrey On what s next for the offense I think just move on you know We lost in the current era We didn t play good enough We made a bunch of mistakes all over the field and still had a chance to win you know With an early week match coming up you just correct the mistakes And a lot of these mistakes are super uncharacteristic and we gotta just look ourselves in the mirror and move on because it s a quick turnaround It was just a bad challenge all around and exited to move on from it On red zone struggles I think overall we re close We got to gel a little bit better together but we are close This is a tight tight league and the room for error is very slim All the mistakes are correctable There s little things here and there that once we start rolling we can start getting going again I m excited for that On how the organization will handle its first loss of the season I ve never been a part of an undefeated company I think one squad has You lose in this league and when you lose it s about how you respond Everybody in that locker room has lost before Everyone in the locker room s maybe not played their best and as a association we ve not played our best but the beauty is we play in four days With quick turnarounds you just flush it and move on and get better You can t hang your head You got to just learn from the tape Whether you re young or old you learn from the tape and keep moving and get better and come out ready to roll on Thursday San Francisco ers fans cheer for their gang in the first quarter of their NFL championship at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara Calif on Sunday Sept Jose Carlos Fajardo Bay Area News Group On the struggles of the run competition We re close It s not good on paper and I put a lot of that on me It takes all to run the ball But we are close and I feel really confident in our guys and we just got to keep truckin On the turnovers It happens At the end of the day we turned the ball over four times and still had a chance to win at the end there So you can t harp on anything that s happened in the past whether it s good or bad From a athlete s mindset it s next play You re fight or flight in a meeting and so your emotions can t get too high and can t get too down because you never know what play could be the one that changes it You ve just got to keep your head in On if Purdy was still not fully healthy I didn t get the sense at all We myself included had a lot of drops for him too You know when you have those kind of plays it can get put on the quarterback But I thought he did a great job out there
