Frank Gore rushes for 97 yards, including a 14-yard touchdown, as the San Francisco 49ers get off to a fast start and never take their foot off the gas, beating down their NFC West rivals, 33-16. Alex Smith throws for 216 yards and two touchdowns, hitting Michael Crabtree with one of the prettiest throws of the day, a 58-yarder that helps put the game out of reach for the struggling Cardinals.
