Mike LaFleur faces his former mentor as Arizona seeks a 2-1 start and San Francisco tries to stay unbeaten behind Brock Purdy.
- On Sunday, the 2-0 San Francisco 49ers visit the 1-1 Arizona Cardinals, marking the first time head coach Kyle Shanahan faces his former assistant Mike LaFleur as Arizona's head coach.
- LaFleur worked under Shanahan for seven seasons in Cleveland, Atlanta, and San Francisco; now all three NFC West rivals run offensive schemes derived from Shanahan's playbook.
- San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy leads the NFL by completing 80.4% of his passes, while the 49ers offense enters firing on all cylinders after consecutive blowout victories.
- During Wednesday's evaluation, LaFleur called the 49ers a "dang good football team," as the Cardinals seek rebound after allowing three touchdown passes in last week's loss to Seattle.
- While the Cardinals lead the all-time series 38-31, San Francisco seeks its 10th 3-0 start in the Super Bowl era after opening with back-to-back wins by at least 20 points.
