The Cardinals didn’t need long to jump out to a lead at home on Sunday.
James Conner’s two-yard touchdown run capped a seven-play, 75-yard game-opening drive against the 49ers. Matt Prater’s extra point pushed the Cardinals lead to 7-0 with just over four minutes off the clock in Arizona.
The biggest play of the drive came on a Kyler Murray pass to tight end Trey McBride. McBride picked up 38 yards on the play and Murray moved the ball inside the 10-yard-line with a 12-yard run a couple of plays later.
The 49ers will now try to answer that score with one of their own.
