A 33-30 Monday Night Football loss at Lambeau Field. The 49ers fall to 1-5 in their best game of the year.

How it unfolded

The 49ers built a 17-13 lead behind a Beathard touchdown to Goodwin and a Kittle touchdown. The Packers answered with Rodgers throws to Adams. Both teams traded touchdowns into the second half. The 49ers added another touchdown drive to take a 30-23 lead with under five minutes left. Rodgers drove the Packers for the tying touchdown to Adams. The 49ers' next possession went three-and-out. The Packers drove for Crosby's 27-yard winner as time expired.

The turning point

The 49ers' three-and-out with under three minutes left. With the Packers having tied it at 30-30 and the 49ers needing only to manage the clock to get into field-goal range, the failure to get a first down gave Rodgers the ball back with enough time to drive for the winning field goal.

By the numbers

Beathard 16-of-23 for 245 with two TDs (his career-best). Rodgers 25-of-46 for 425 with two TDs. Adams 10 catches for 132 with two TDs. Breida 17 carries for 61. Kittle 4 catches for 80 with a TD. Goodwin 4 for 83 with a TD.

Personnel watch

Beathard in his career-best game producing 245 yards and two TDs. Kittle's first 80-yard game. Rodgers in his usual late-game form. The kind of Monday-night primetime performance the rookie quarterback put together that, despite the loss, gave the this rebuilding year something to build from.

What it means

1-5 with the Rams coming up at home next week. The Monday-night primetime loss is the kind of close result that, despite the record, suggests the 49ers' offense can still produce against good defenses. The Rams are 5-0 and will be the next test.
