I'ts now the 2Q. 49ers now use 11 (3WR) personnel to run the ball, the first time this game. Outside zone left vs ARI's nickel.


Skule won't be able to reach the wide 9 DE but he can still push him outwards to widen interior gaps. Nevermind, Richburg got tossed aside.


Skule/Richburg lose on their blocks. No gain. At this point in the game, the 49ers are down 16-7. In their previous drive they scored a TD using five straight passes. They move away from the run for the rest of the game.


The plays shown illustrate that the run game did not struggle because of any one player. Everyone doesn't have to win their run block, they can stalemate, but they cannot outright lose. Sometimes it was a bad play from the 49er, sometimes it was a good play from the defender. What the 49ers did not do much this game was use presnep jet/orbit motion to help create better angles or generate misdirection. I guess that just wasn't in the gameplan for this week.

I seem to remember the 49ers hard counting late in the first half or early in the second half. I think. But basically by hard counting, Jimmy was able to pull the DLinemen into a neutral zone encroachment penalty several times. I think this play above illustrates the AZ DLinemen really keying on and trying to anticipate the snap count and really trying to gap-penetrate and screw up that OZ run blocking scheme. In other words, I don't think Richburg was overpowered, but rather that the AZ dlinemen were really doing their best to anticipate and time the snap count to beat the OLinemen to their blocking spot.

Also, if you notice in the endzone view one of the LB's (the left one) steps to the playside right before the snap, almost anticipating the play side direction. I thought that was interesting, as though they may have had some tells's that indicated where the play was going to go.

Seattle said they were able to pick up on some of our calls and pretty much knew where the ball was going.

Argh! I remember that interview. So I agree. I think if you play your division rivals and don't do some work to hid your audibles, you'll get that stuff. In addition to what everybody has said on this thread, I think seattles DLine and AZ's DLine aren't sub par. I know AZ's defense is ranked low, but I still think their DLine has the talent to be the top have of NFL defenses, it's their defensive backfield that's their weak spot, in my opinion. Thank god we don't play AZ later in the season. They are getting pretty good as the season has moved forward.

jd, any thoughts on why ARI opened the game with nearly all man coverage, then in the 2nd half went predominantly zone? Did ARI out think themselves? "If we keep playing man, Kyle will make adjustments and beat us. Better change things up"

I think it was because the screens and PA were gashing them. We'd either run receivers out of the screen side of the field or vertical and stress their LB's and S's while they were biting on anything that looked like a run

I dunno about that.. There was one screen pass thrown in the first half, that 50+ yarder to RJames in the first half and that wasn't a conventional screen play. Unless I'm missing some screen pass plays that were successful (in the 1st half) that got ARI out of playing man? The 49er offense didn't do jack until that 50+ yarder to James. No screen passes in the first half after that.
At the start of the 2nd half, ARI came out playing zone all the way down the field, then Juice got a nice screen pass once they got in the red zone. So I don't think screen passes got ARI away from man. They just decided to start playing zone coming out of the halftime break.

well, that one screen pass play did wreck their defense for a huge gain. Maybe they felt that it became a liability if they were too predictable? Maybe it was in the gameplan to show one thing in one half and another in the 2nd half to anticipate Kyle making an adjustment?

We did gash them several times vs man coverage right before the half too. Two big completions to Samuel and Sanders that I showed in the last video.

They may have also wanted more flexibility in disguise of blitzes. They ran a lot of fire zones with different personnel in the 2nd half.

The bolded makes more sense than the one screen pass that ARI got hit with. I don't think playing predominantly zone against Kyle/Jimmy is good plan unless the defense can apply quick pressure with four rushers. Yeah lots of fire zone in the 2nd half, lots of Cover 1 blitz in the first half. Lots of 5 man rushes in general for ARI. ARI's blitz % in this game had gotta be over 50% (5+ rushers).

I'm just curious, I've been trying to do some stuff on twitter but have found the fruit to not be there too much. What's the big value for me in doing this? Not meaning this in a mean way, truly curious. I've posted videos before and I get barely any traffic off of it. Like, less than 50 views.

id say every little bit helps. every little bit of exposure helps. then you have things like, re-tweets, maybe some follows, etc. it all compounds.

i personally would like to see them posted, as i'd be one of the people to re-tweet them to my following base

Yeah. Be patient and keep hustling. I subscribed to your youtube. All it takes is the right person to subscribe, like, and holler your vids out to others who carry a lot of weight.

In 5 years, maybe we see your name in the NFL Edge Matchup staff credits.

You get one story for the rest of the year, I'll read it around February. It'll be called, "A funny thing happened on the way to the 6th trophy"

If we win the superbowl... you really should tell a "bedtime story" themed season recap.

That really would be hilarious.....maybe I'll do that regardless of how the season turns out

ARI threw a ton of zone coverage at the 49ers in the 2nd half, and to change things up a little on a 1st & 10 in the 3Q, they rush 3 and drop 8. This is on the drive that ended with the Bourne TD catch.
Dwelley lines up out wide and initially no one lines up over him.


Mostert motions into the slot and the CB widens to align over Dwelley to show a presnap read of zone coverage.
4 Verticals vs Cover 3 (3 deep, 5 underneath, 3 rushers). This is a good playcall vs Cover3.


A QB working 4 verticals should always initially look to where he doesn't want to throw. Jimmy takes the snap and looks to his right. This will move the blue middle deep safety towards that side of the field. McG getting put on skates.


With the deep safety shaded over to the wide side of the field, it's time to work the other side of the field. Juice is open, but Jimmy has to evade the pocket due to McG getting pushed back.


Bourne does a good job of cutting off his route and working towards Jimmy. Jimmy winding up targeting Bourne.

lol I'm trying to get in some Jimmy cutups before you do all of them before me. I've been getting the run game cuts most the year. Just do your thing. If we double up it's cool. I think when I post one play in a post it's a bit easier to talk about the play in this messageboard thread format.

Oh most definitely is. I appreciate you carrying the weight here. Myvtrafgic monitoring shows that the majority of those watching my stuff dont come from the forum here so I'm trying to cover stuff for those who aren't able to see all your great stuff. I'm hoping to cover some defensive adjustments tomorrow after I finish the offensive stuff.

I want to show the difference in how we contained Drake from week 9 to week 11 and how we held Murray to under 5 YPA

I could see you were up really really late last night posting on this thread just trying to get the one up on Jonnydel.

Nothing beats such fierce competition so the rest of us WZ posters get the best play analysis. Love your effort guys!
Did any of you guys see Grant Cohan's attempt at this recently? It's hilariously retarded.
