Understandable, but this WR core/Maxx/Chase, he really doesn’t have to.
Our very own @SoonerLou did too lol.They swore up and down all offseason that Trent Sherfield was going to be great and that he was underutilized by the Cardinals.
49ers fan base is upset that he's not being used enough either, lol.
I was shocked at how much time Murray had last week at times.
I find it hard to gripe over 5th WRs. 5th CB? Sure I will since those guys usually end up playing.
Yea but he's still not as accurate as he was before (close to 80% through 1st 2 weeks I believe)
49ers pass rush > Rams pass rush imo.
AJ/Moore/Kirk's recent injury history is why it was a concern for me and plus he was great on special teams.
Did we watch the same game?
Agreed. But there’s a big difference between what he’s done this year running verses last year. He can spring a big running game on a team here and there and still not come anywhere close to last years rushing attempts/totals.
I think Kyler is running about where he should. Maybe if the passing game isn't going he'll need to take off a bit more, but I think 20-30 yards per game is the sweet spot.
Donald is by far the best DL in the league and it's not even close. He looked very ordinary against the Cardinals though, and I saw a number of instances where he was single blocked and he made nothing happen.
Also I think the rover back position they are using Ramsey at limits his effectiveness.
“If he wants to get out of the pocket, he’s going to get out of the pocket whether he retreats back 10 yards,” he told reporters Thursday. “I think guys throw that out, where keeping him in the pocket. Well, this guy’s elusive enough. He’s probably the fastest guy on the field. So, if he wants to get out, he’s going to get out.”
We see that regularly. Even when he is not pressured, he moves to create time, to allow routes to develop down the field and also perhaps to increase his field vision.
Ryan noted Murray isn’t moving to try and run this season. But that is where a slight change in the offensive game plan could lead to big rushing numbers from Murray.
“When you see quarterbacks break out of the pocket, your natural reaction is the guys running with the ball, so I have to go up and get him,” Ryans explained. “But you have to understand, with Kyler, what’s been our main focus all week is talking about plastering and coverage because he’s not escaping to run per se. He’s escaping to hit the big explosive play, so our guys have to be disciplined, stay back in coverage and we’ll come up after he crosses the line of scrimmage.”
Kyler Murray could see more running opportunities vs. 49ers
49ers DC DeMeco Ryans says his coverage guys need to stick to their receivers until Murray crosses the line of scrimmage. There will be open field to run,cardswire.usatoday.com
I still believe this is a game where Kyler is going to have run quite a bit
It takes like a minute to research my guy lol https://www.google.com/amp/s/niners...njury-report-raheem-mostert-deebo-samuel/amp/
6 to 8 weeks means he's either back to play us or just misses our game.
