49ers unable to keep up with Bills in 34-24 loss
Kendrick Bourne caught a pass from Nick Mullens and celebrated an apparent touchdown that would have kept the San Francisco 49ers in the gameDECEMBER 8, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Mixed performance in defeat Mullens completed 26 of 39 passes for 316 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions in the 49ers' 34-24 loss to the Bills on Monday night.
Impact The third-year quarterback extended what has become a familiar statistical pattern, putting together serviceable fantasy numbers that are marred by interceptions. On Monday night, Mullens' mistakes were particularly ill-timed, as both of his picks came in the second half with San Francisco down by multiple scores and attempting to mount a comeback. The second interception, which came in the end zone with 7:05 remaining, short-circuited an impressive eight-play, 70-yard march. Mullens now has six interceptions in the last four games, blemishing what has otherwise been strong play on his part. Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) is in Arizona with the team and reportedly has an outside chance of returning for a Week 14 matchup with Washington, but a decision on his status may not come until later in the week. If he ultimately needs at least one more week to recover, Mullens figures to retain the starting job over C.J. Beathard for Sunday's contest.

Throws for 252 yards vs. Rams Mullens completed 24 of 25 pass attempts for 252 yards and an interception during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Rams.
Impact Mullens completed an impressive 69 percent of his attempts and averaged a respectable 7.2 yards per attempt. He failed to throw a touchdown pass while throwing an interception and taking two sacks, but he orchestrated the drive that resulted in the game-winning field goal for his first taste of victory since Week 3. Mullens is expected to start again next Monday against the Bills but seems unlikely to produce impressive fantasy totals.
