Packers versus 49ers, What We Know!

Week 12 - 49ers 37 - Packer 8, looks like a good old fashion BUTT KICK!

1 - Our coach, Matt LaFleur going against a protege, Kyle Shanahan.  The LaFleur family is staying with his brothers family (WHO, coaches with the 49ers, AWKWARD!)  Our rookie coach, is going against a coach with 4 years experience.

2 - Stats from game:

Rodgers - 20 for 33 for 104 yards and 1 TD
Garoppolo - 14 for 20 for 253 yards & 2 TD's

This is NOT a typical Rodgers game - THIS MUST improve!

Davante Adams - 7 receptions - 43 yards - 1 TD
George Kittle - 6 receptions 129 yards - 1 TD

Adams MUST win this battle!

Running:
Williams - 11 for 45 yards - 0 TD
Jones - 13 for 38 yards - 0 TD

Mostert - 6 for 45 - 1 TD
Coleman - 11 for 39 - 1 TD
Wilson - 2 for 27 - 0 TD

Fairly even, but NO TD's for Pack. Jones & Williams MUST get into the end zone!

Defense:

Packers 3 sacks & 49ers 5 sacks, PACKERS will will sack battle!

Turnovers - Packers - 1 fumble & 0 interceptions
                     49ers - 0 fumble & 0 interceptions

Total Yards - Packers - Rush 117 & Pass 119 = 236 total yards
                       49ers - Rush 112 & Pass 253 = 365 total yards

Packers Defense was NOT that bad, but 37 points is too much.  In fact, the offense with 236 totals yards probably put too much pressure on the Packer D!

A look at the series chart:

Packers - 11 total series - 1 Fumble - 6 Punts - 2 Downs - 1 TD - 1 End of Game
49ers - 11 total series - 7 scores 4 TD's & 3 FG's - 4 Punts

First time Packers had ball Rodgers fumble & 49ers score on short field!  Out of 11 series for the 49ers, 7 lead to scores - THAT IS NOT GOOD!

Packers had 5 of 11 series end in 3 & out punts!  That is NOT GOOD!

So, win the turnover battle, sustain long drives with shorts passes, a solid running game & play action passes!  Take a few long shots to keep 49er defense honest!  And, ATTACK on offense & defense!!!

Lot's to improve on!  THREE keys:

1 - Aaron Rodgers
2 - Pressure Garoppolo!
3 - Matt LaFleur - GOOD decisions & quality play calling!!

Go Back Go!
