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

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.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.

      Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.

      Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
