1) For all of that vaunted offensive firepower, they only scored 13. Were the 49ers that bad on offense, or were our boys playing that well on D?
2) Judging from the comments, we once again were on the back side of the T/O curve. Did we have any RB's available to replace AK after he was obviosly struggling?
3) How did the O line look vs. Bosa and friends? Was AD under pressure or was he just undecisive in getting rid of the ball?
4) What did the DAs D line pressure look like? What about the playcalling from PC?

Thanks for your feedback.

1) The defense was playing great. The 49er's offense put up its lowest yardage total of the entire season.

2) I wouldn't say Kamara was struggling, per se. Search out the two fumbles. Both came on plays where the 49er's defense held him up on a tackle while subsequent players either punched the ball out or laid their helmet right on the ball. They were both perfectly executed defensive plays.

3) I don't think the offensive line looked that bad, but once again penalties hurt. We had two opportunities of 1st and goal inside their five yard line and came away with zero points.

4) The playcalling by Carmichael on those previous plays was horrible as far as I'm concerned. As for DA's side, the defensive pressure was good and helped keep some of those weapons from making big plays.
