Almost everything went right for the San Francisco 49ers in the first half of their season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Even their mistakes worked out.
With San Francisco leading, 17-0 in the second quarter, quarterback Brock Purdy fumbled the ball on a sack by Steelers All-Pro T.J. Watt. Watt got his hands on the ball after it came loose. But Purdy made sure that San Francisco maintained possession.
Purdy hit the turf on his back with his legs up in the air and the ball pinned between his lower back and the ground. Watt reached out to grab it. But Purdy wasn't giving it up. He reached with both hands below his back to secure the ball. Watt, a 252-pound former Defensive Player of the Year, couldn't pry it away.
