What i'm interested in this evening:
- How does the defense look schematically compared to last season
- Can the defense stop the run
- Will Deebo be able to get open (Sauce is a tough matchup for Aiyuk with no offseason) and has his offseason participation lit a spark in him
- Contributions from Mason and then the rookies
- Will Purdy play like did last year or are we going to see what we saw in the pre-season
This feels like a Kittle game TBH with NY's secondary.
- How the defense looks. This is a big one with a rookie DC and Brandon Staley chiming in.
- Right side of OL.
- The CBs in both base and nickel. Who is the third CB? Is Demo playing RCB in base then goes into slot when in nickel with (who?) coming in to play RCB?
- The workload on CMC. Most of us wanted some of his carries to go to Mason last season. To prolong CMC's career, I hope this year is a bit different and there's another RB that can help out.
- The safeties. It's a young group. If Rodgers has time, how do they hold up in coverage?
