49ers Coach Kyle Shanahan Faces Another Disciple in Game Against Cardinals Coach Mike LaFleur
Mike LaFleur faces his former mentor as Arizona seeks a 2-1 start and San Francisco tries to stay unbeaten behind Brock Purdy.
- On Sunday, the 2-0 San Francisco 49ers visit the 1-1 Arizona Cardinals, marking the first time 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan faces his former assistant, Arizona head coach Mike LaFleur, as a head coach.
- LaFleur worked under Shanahan for seven seasons across Cleveland, Atlanta, and San Francisco; all three NFC West rivals now run offensive schemes derived from Shanahan's playbook.
- San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy leads the NFL by completing 80.4% of his passes after the 49ers opened the season with back-to-back wins by at least 20 points.
- During his Wednesday evaluation, LaFleur called the 49ers a "dang good football team," as the Cardinals aim to rebound after allowing three touchdown passes in last week's loss to Seattle.
- San Francisco seeks its 10th 3-0 start in the Super Bowl era, though the Cardinals hold a 38-31 advantage in the all-time series heading into Sunday's division matchup.
