SANTA CLARA — The 49ers got back to basics by stifling the New York Jets' ground game in their 32-19 win on "Monday Night Football," and the defensive line collectively believes this only is the beginning. Stopping the run was important to defensive end Nick Bosa, especially after the unit's less-than-superior performance in that area across the 2023 NFL season. The star pass rusher was pleased the group only allowed the Jets to tally 68 total yards on the ground in the 2024 regular-season opener. "If we can stop the run like that, we'll obviously clean up more things and we will have a lot more rush ops in the future," Bosa said after the game at Levi's Stadium. "... That's just our main focus every year because if you make teams one dimensional, it's huge. ... "We take a lot of pride in it, and last year we weren't as good as we needed to be so we had to improve."
