San Francisco’s Week 3 win over Arizona stayed perfect at 3-0, built on a late-game kick by Eddy Pineiro, a breakout performance from Ricky Pearsall, and a throttling defensive effort led by Fred Warner. Pineiro answered Week 2 nerves with precise 38- and 51-yard field goals and a clutch 35-yard winner as time expired, easing the start-of-season kicker anxiety for SF. Pearsall totaled 117 yards on eight catches, including a pivotal 34-yard fourth-down connection that sparked SF’s TD drive.

The defense didn’t miss a beat without Nick Bosa, holding Kyler Murray and Arizona to 13 points and 3.8 rushing yards per carry. Warner anchored that unit with 11 tackles and key plays, while Shanahan’s decision to go for broke on fourth down late pointed to a playoff-contender mentality in a tight, season-opening grind.

Eddy Piñeiro starred in his Levi’s Stadium debut, drilling four kicks and delivering a 35-yard game-winner to lift the 49ers past Arizona. San Francisco moves to 3-0 and turns the page on Jake Moody, whose Week 1 struggles helped precipitate his release and Bears practice-squad move.

Public reaction followed, with fans cheering the kicker upgrade while the 49ers eye looming tests against Jacksonville and a Week 5 date with the Rams to stay atop the NFC West.

Detroit blitzed Chicago at Ford Field as the Bears drop to 0-2, with Caleb Williams flashing but penalized and turnover-prone. Rome Odunze erupted for 7 grabs, 128 yards and 2 TDs, signaling a fantasy spike. Chicago's secondary and pass rush faltered after Jaylon Johnson left, while Detroit's offense clicked behind Goff's clean day.

The game spotlighted penalties, miscues and coaching decisions that fantasy managers will weigh as Chicago recalibrates for Week 3.
