San Francisco 49er's Christian McCaffrey scored four touchdowns which vaulted the 49ers toward a 35-16 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
McCaffrey nearly matched the franchise's single-game touchdown record, but a potential fifth score was denied at the 2-yard line on a 2-yard run in the final minutes, and rather than give him the ball again, coach Kyle Shanahan called for a Brock Purdy sneak from inside the 1 to cap the scoring spree.
"Honestly I had no idea until I came in here he had four touchdowns," Shanahan said in his press conference. "I'm kind of shocked. Now I kind of feel bad."
Quarterback Brock Purdy set a franchise record himself, completing 20-of-21 (283 yards) and starting 13-of-13. He remains unbeaten in regular-season starts, and has gone 211 consecutive passes without an interception.
The win secured a 4-0 record for only the fifth time in franchise history.
The 49ers end their three-game homestand next Sunday night when the Dallas Cowboys return to the site of their divisional-playoff loss, 19-12, on Jan. 22.
