The 49ers and Bengals keep the regular season rolling in Week 2 with an NFC-AFC battle.
San Francisco enters Sunday with a 1-0 start to the season after cruising to an easy road win over Tampa Bay. The 49ers humiliated Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston, forcing three interceptions and returning two for touchdowns in the 31-17 win. Offensively, San Francisco does have some work to do. George Kittle logged eight receptions but it was an otherwise quiet day for the 49er offense. Jimmy Garoppolo had a touchdown and an interception and San Francisco had just 98 yards and 32 carries.
