SF is gonna try and run the ball down our throats.

Therefore— I leave my CBs in man to man and bring everybody else up into the box and run blitz the hell out of their OL early downs. Put a DB on Kittle all game long.

If they audible out of run looks early… no problem. Man up on the outside and stunt, twist, and blitz em to death. Make it so the only options that look good are deep routes, and trust your rush to get Purdy off his spot or get crushed.

I would rather risk giving up a big play, and put the game on our top CBs— than laying back and trusting this front 7 to be able to stop the run on their own.

Get aggressive. Up the tempo. Sell out to slow down the run. Make them beat your secondary man to man to move the ball

Plan, we actually have game plans?? We're the only team that seemingly just recycles the same game plan from week to week!!!

Sounds like a good plan. However, will our coaches have the same idea or just keep doing what they're doing? Guess, we'll find out.
dang my dear lol without seeing this, we're on the same page!! If nothing changes, nothing changes!!

Sounds good

But this is what they will do.
