SANTA CLARA – Now that the 49ers emphatically held serve on their home field, they’ll look to parlay Sunday’s 27-14 win over Tampa Bay into more success entering this season’s most daunting stretch.They certainly are in prime shape for it, judging from quarterback Brock Purdy’s statistically impressive air show, running back Christian McCaffrey’s rediscovered scoring knack and the defense’s prowess that might have to forge ahead without safety Talanoa Hufanga.For the second straight season, the 49ers (7-3) have just a four-day turnaround after playing the Bucs before visiting the Seattle Seahawks, this time for a Thanksgiving night affair with first place on the line. After that comes an NFC Championship Game rematch Dec. 3 at the conference-leading Philadelphia Eagles, before a Dec. 10 return to Levi’s Stadium to face the Seahawks and possibly decide the NFC West.The Bucs (4-6) offered a nice tune-up, especially for Purdy, who won his starting debut against them and Tom Brady...
