If Hudson is back, Murray should have time to carve them up on blitzes.

I haven't seen it recently but first 3 weeks SF was in the bottom 5 in the NFL in % of pass plays blitzed. We'll see where they are now with injuries but at the beginning of the season they were not blitzing that much.

I don't recall it one way or another in the first game the first game was about them containing on the edge and not letting Kyler get outside.

I think they will blitz very little. The book on us is to play zone, try to get us to dink and dunk. Rush 3 or 4. The last half of last year, we struggled mightily against it. Rarely saw man coverage.

This year, we have been getting big plays even against zone. I saw a stat on here a couple of weeks ago that Kyler was torching the blitz this season.

We will win if we can force them to blitz to get pressure and disrupt Kyler.

Mike White quarterbacked the Jets to a win over one of the top teams in the AFC, Trevor Simien quarterbacked the Saints to a win over what some are calling the best team in the NFC, led by the GOAT. I hope Murray can play, but if not I think Colt McCoy more than hold his own and lead Arizona to a win over the 49ers.

I agree with you but even if I didn't I would just because of your avatar.

Loved me some Terry Metcalf, favorite player of all time!

I believe this team is better well rounded and can compete without KM, with colt at QB. May be wrong, but that is what I believe - get well soon unicorn

Colt isn't half the passer that KM is and doesn't keep the D honest with the threat of running.

But I hope we can compete.

Those are 2 great updates... Give us Hudson and Justin Murray/Garcia back as well. I have heard they are hopeful on Hudson - any word on the other 2?
