Studs and duds from 49ers’ 37-8 thumping of Packers

We’re running out of superlatives to describe how dominating the 49ers can be. 

Stud: TE George Kittle

As crazy as it sounds, when an offense’s best player comes back from injury, that offense looks a lot better. That was certainly the case Sunday night when Kittle returned to the lineup for San Francisco. Kittle missed the last two weeks with a bone chip in his ankle. He was targeted six times for six receptions, 129 yards and a touchdown. Kittle had receptions of 19, 22, and 61 yards with the longest resulting in a game-sealing touchdown. The touchdown came two plays after Green Bay got within 15 points and had a chance to sneak back into the contest.
