49ers and Harbaugh owned Green Bay when McCarthy ran Green Bay, I can see a repeat of that this next weekend - as Harbaugh and Kyle's offenses are both run heavy offenses.

Dan Quinn runs an aggressive defense that plays nickel as its base package and plays man coverage.

we have guys that can beat man coverage (assuming we give Qb time) and we can power through them in their base nickel package.

That works and revolves around Parsons who is a beast. I expect us to hit him once or twice every single snap. They know us better know. In the end will w=be if Purdy has enough protection.
I feel The 49ers PACK is going to have a Big Sunday night.

Purdy Aiyuk CMC Kittle
Pass rush gotta learn how to get home this game
49ers shocks the world

If the Dallas defense isn't scoring for them that offense is mid

only 2 teams have allowed less yards/play than the 49ers (Browns and ravens)
Trap game?
Our pass rush had to account for the Cards run game and Dobbs ability to run to the outside. Can't just go get sacks like the fans would want. I think Bosa and the defense played it right. Bad defense showed up on a couple of drives but for most of the game it was sound.

The Cowboys don't seemed to have as good a run game so far as the Cards. But still have to account for Dak running outside. It's almost like playing against Dobbs gave our guys practice against Dak.

Niners 33-23
I hate to be a wet blanket pessimist, but the Cowboys defense is on a historic pace. These guys are playing better than the 2002 Bucs. They are terrifying.

Look, I'm always this way. I expect the Cowboys to win because (a) it hurts less if they do, and (b) I see the film and see how great that defense is, even with the loss to the Cardinals. But I'll say this: if we beat them, there is NO question that we are the best team in the NFL, and only injuries and strange flukes will prevent us from winning the Super Bowl.

We need to run the ball, and we need to trust that Brock will continue to make the right decisions, and that Dak will revert when he faces a great defense.

True but the Cowboys defense has scored almost as much as they've allowed. That's a scary defense. But maybe the secret to beating them is a QB who doesn't choke under pressure. Well, we got one of those.
That cowboys defense has faced the 20th, 25th, 26th & 38th ranked QB's this season. They are good but how good are they really? We'll find out Sunday night.

Yep, even though it will be a challenge for us against them, it will be a much bigger challenge for them against us.

they have a huge playmaking D. They play a high reward/high risk D which makes them look great against inferior competition. But they are ways to take advantage of them. In run game they get aggressive and overpursue and them playing man coverage allows our guys to take advantage because little Deebo and Aiyuk can all beat man coverage. Ill add Jennings there too

I hope Deebo and Jennings are healed and good to go
