VIDEO: Jimmy Garoppolo Hits Dante Pettis on Game-Winning TD for 49ers
By Ryan Flores
Jimmy Garoppolo is flat out clutch. With just 1:20 left to go in the fourth quarter, the San Francisco 49ers quarterback threw an amazing bullet pass in tight coverage to Dante Pettis to give the 49ers the lead, 24-20, against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

It was far from a perfect day for Garoppolo, as he threw for 277 yards with two interceptions, but he stepped up when it mattered most, and helped get his team to a 3-0 record. Unfortunately for the Steelers, Mason Rudolph was unable to complete the comeback, forcing Pittsburgh to fall to an unexpected 0-3 on the season.
