It's annoying to watch. Hopefully they tighten up.
But yeah... When they offense is putting up 30 points per game, the defense doesn't have to carry the team like they did in previous years.
I hear you. I was ecstatic on the first couple of drives when they were pressing the line. Then they got the two-score lead and he went back to vanilla. I understand why that makes sense, but it doesn't mean I like.
He did not. The most vanilla defense he called was that last drive when the game was over. People called for blitzes, tight coverage, stunts, and the Cards lead by their very good QB and OL had an answer for everything. Our DBs are bad, and to play tight coverage any longer, well the score would have been very different as the 49ers offense would have needed to win a shootout. Trade for some better DBs that can at least have better reaction times to double moves, and Wilks might can do more with his defense.
