Who do you trust offense or defense?

I trust Jimmy but I hope the defense can get it done also.
Offense in the 2nd half of the year. Defense in the 1st half of the year. But really we just need to win by more and not let it come down to this.

Right now - I trust the offense more. Still need to get players back on defense to be trust worthy.

This! Couldn't have said it any better.

I chose offense with 1:30 left just like 89% of those who voted. However, there is a bit of a mystery to which defense shows up today. Niners defense ended the season 2nd in the league on 3rd down only behind the Patriots. The Patriots D was giving up a league low 24% and the Niners finished at 33% on 3rd down. The Niners D the last 5 games was giving up around 50% on 3rd down though. We haven't had Kwon Alexander, Jaquiski Tartt and Dee Ford all on the field together since Halloween. I also read an article stating that when Alexander, Ford and Bosa have been on the field together, opposing QB's had a QBR of 3.0.

Getting Dee and Kwon back for this game could put this defense over the top. If that is the case, we very well could end up watching our Niners field our 1st half season defense and our 2nd half season offense at the game today. I don't know about the rest of this board but I am super f**king hyped for today. I hope we lay the smackdown on these Vikings and it doesn't have to come down to a last minute drive.

Both
Honestly, either. If I had to choose, I'd pick offer se because it's a better story to have the offense March down the field for the game winning drive. But I think the D could lay down the big stop if need be too.
Tough, tough, tough. It depends on the situation but if push were to come to shove I'd say offense with Shanahan.

Depends on how many TO left and where do you start the drive.
For once, it's about a 50/50 split for me.
I've lost confidence in this defense lately.
As long as Ahkilla Drfense doesn't play we got a real shot. I don't trust employee #23
Defense has been extreme average the last few weeks. 4 rushing 7 zone has been found out. Teams play short ball on us all the way to the ennd zone. Pitch and catch. Saleh has no answer. So we need the o to seperate from other teams this playoff run -- make them stop playing in 4th quarter.

It comes down to this question: who do you trust more, shanny or queueball?

The poll makes it pretty clear.
Definitely Jimmy to get the job done. He's been amazing in the 4th quarter this year, so I'd rather have him on the field than the defense.

The team. Have we had a punt or kick return TD this season? Today is the day. Lol
