Browns stun 49ers 19-17, hand San Francisco its first loss and QB Brock Purdy his first as starter

Associated Press  

CLEVELAND — From dominant to defeated — in less than a week. Brock Purdy suffered his first loss as a starter and the Niners had their regular-season winning streak stopped at 15 when rookie kicker Jake Moody missed a 41-yard field goal with six seconds remaining, giving the Cleveland Browns an unexpected 19-17 win on Sunday. We haven’t lost in a long time in the regular season, so it hurts a lot more.” Dustin Hopkins kicked four field goals for the Browns — the last with 1:40 left, capping a drive helped by a disputed unnecessary roughness call against San Francisco. But Cleveland’s top-ranked defense was more than up to the task, and the 49ers were short-handed in the second half without playmakers Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel, who both went out with injuries. There are plays that we didn’t make.” Despite being without McCaffrey and Samuel, Purdy made a couple big throws on San Francisco’s final drive and positioned the ball in the middle of the field for Moody, who pushed his attempt to the right.
