KANSAS CITY (KRON) — The San Francisco 49ers extend their perfect preseason record to three following a 27-17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday.

There has been a lot of buzz about 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo after his performance at Arrowhead Stadium.

Garoppolo completed 14 of 20 for 188 yards, including a 20-yard touchdown pass to running back Matt Breida.

He finished the game with no interceptions.

It was a very different story five nights ago, though, when Garoppolo completed just 1 of 6 for zero yards Monday night against the Denver Broncos.

But after tonight’s glimpse of “the old Jimmy”, he is proving that he’s more than ready for the regular-season opener on Sept. 8 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The 49ers will host the Los Angeles Chargers on Aug. 29 for their final preseason match up.
