We should be passing on 70% of our downs

Why, exactly? Fozzy had 71 yards on 6 carries at the half. That's averaging nearly 12 YPC.

and stewart had 5 for 9.  fozzy also fumbled once, and one of his runs that went for like 15 was because the niners were just in a prevent defense.  we're passing more this half and the niners haven't had a prayer

okay, what happens if we face a team like the broncos when our oline has trouble blocking and wrs have trouble getting open? You going to go out there with a towel yourself and mop up cam's brains up? Running keeps the defense honest, even if it isn't working you don't abandon it completely.

when did i suggest abandoning it completely?  we passed the ball well last week though

I do agree that we should pass more this season than we did last year. I say about 54% pass instead of 49% like it was last year. Giving a defense a balanced attack, makes our offense deadly but I do get annoyed when we run Tolbert or Fozzy straight down the teeth of a defense.

There is no other team like the Broncos, nobody else has that many legit pass rushers with a completely talented secondary to match it.

Been thinking this, we have done a good job rebuilding the receiving core which is where the talent is but we want to focus on pounding the rock with a good RB who cant stay healthy consistently and a couple of utility guy RBs.

Its backwards......

Olsen, Funch, KB, Ginn, Philly

They are the better unit. Time to start using them. I didnt even know Funchess was playing midway threw the first half and he was camp MVP. If KB and Olsen dont make those plays Niners could have took the game over. The run game kinda holds the offense back for this team, to many runs for no gain and loss of yards. It just doesnt work the way it should.

Yeah Cam threw a lot today but it was more due to the circumstances of the game rather than the actually game plan coming in.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
