49ers showcase strong offense in 38-17 win over Raiders

Summary

The San Francisco 49ers defeated the Raiders 38-17 on November 9 at Levi's Stadium. The game highlighted the 49ers' offensive capabilities but also revealed weaknesses in their defense, particularly with zero sacks recorded against Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins. Defensive tackle DeForest Buckner and linebacker Nick Bosa, both key players, were unable to produce the expected defensive pressure, contributing to a disappointing performance despite the victory. Head coach Kyle Shanahan acknowledged the team's potential but emphasized the need for improvement.
