Do the 49ers run the same defense we ran?

It looks like it to me. Why is there's so much better? My guess is all of their guys tackle better and have way better awareness.
Richard Shermans old and slow. he was slow as a rookie, but he has ball skills and intelligence. We have two Corners that are faster and more athletic, so why arent they as good?

Their DLine is 10 times better ours. That alone will make a huge difference on the secondary play.

Bosa's not special. he's good, no better than d-law. we just need better dt play to keep the linebackers clean. we also need Jaylons mind to catch up with his athleticism.

It’s called heart. Miles and miles of heart as Gene Hackman would say in the Replacements.

Draft picks they nailed

2019 - Bosa, Greenlaw
2018 - Warner, Moore
2017 - Thomas
2016 - Buckner
2015 - Armstead, Tartt
2014 - Ward

All home grown and on cheap contracts mostly.

Throw in a few free agents and trades in Dee Ford, Sherman, Day.

There is your reason for success

Swap coaching staffs. Swap results.

Coaching and interior of the dline are the biggest differences.

we also need smart Db s with Ball skills. It doesnt have to be coverage or ball skills. Find a guy who can do both. We also need to become a top tackling team.

Their defensive line is ridiculous. Almost any defensive scheme will work with a insanely good d line. There’s nothing special about their scheme.

They play to their strength.... they can rush the passer but also stop the run at the same time.

I said it before I always thought we were a man defense. We have the guys on the back end that can cover.

when we sent pressure this year vs the eagles (first game) and rams we dominated those games.

when we sat back in that cover 3 shell against the bears jets and bills... and philly the second game we got shredded.

against good offenses we sent pressure against bad ones we let them pick us apart. Go figure.

I’m not saying we have the 49ers talent on d at all but scheme has a lot to do with it
