Now that we have a passing game..(sort of) will the running game improve?


Awesomeness!!

There was a play in the first half when the 49ers literally had 10 people in the box. Davidson/Fox let Moore go a little in the second, and the 49ers couldn't stuff the box anymore, but we still really couldn't get going on the ground. Do you think with Moores performance today the Rams will respect Gettis and Lefell, opening up the run for us?

I do not think this game will cause them to play us all that differently, no.

If Moore does well again... we may start seeing different looks, letting our RBs get going.

Part of the problem is how we are handling formations & what plays we are running out of them. it is still somewhat obvious when we are going to run or pass, but it was a bit better this game at least

Let's put it this way: Moore showed he could move the ball through the air well enough last year. Did that stop defenses from stacking the box this year and forcing Moore to beat us with the pass? Nope.

Until we can consistently move the ball through the air week-in and week-out, I think most defenses are going to focus on stopping the run.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
