Jimmy Garoppolo really wishes he had one pass back on Thursday night.
Garoppolo’s San Francisco 49ers had a 1st-and-10 at the Tennessee Titans 40-yard line early in the second quarter of their game. Kyle Juszczyk was lined up in the slot and ran a wheel route. The Titans blew the coverage, leading Juszczyk to be wide-open.
Jimmy G just badly missed him and threw an incompletion.
The terrible thing for Garoppolo is that he had a clean pocket too. It’s not like he had defenders in his face or hitting him when he released the ball. He just straight up missed Juszczyk.
San Francisco settled for a field goal on the possession. The Niners should have had an easy six instead.
