My two cents, I think it can play out like this---If they double cover VD- either Crabtree or Boldin will be open, if they double cover Crabtree- either VD or Boldin will be open, if they double cover Boldin- either VD or Crabtree will be open.
I dont think the Seahawks do much Double Covering
do they need to? we can hate them and the head coach but are they that good back there , they do not have to double anyone?
The one team that hurt them was Indianapolis and they really didn't play a team that really has two good to great WRs. They were so focused on stopping Wayne that Hilton ripped them for 140s yards, it is a possibility. Plus, they will also have to account for Manningham, I would counter their defense with a scheme that features quick slants and getting the ball out quickly, so that pass protection is not an issue. Also, if they want to drop back people to cover the quick slants, (sound effect, lol) whamoo!!!, Gore can get them running up the middle, or we can throw the bomb to Davis. The best medicine for the 49ers, if I was Kaepernick and the rest of the 9ers, is not to get intimidated. From my perspective, I wouldn't look at them as playing a team with only one loss, I would stress if I were the 49ers of looking at myself, rather than the seahawks. I believe if the 49ers can correct their internal issues/misques/mistakes/penalties and playing with a style that they are not accustomed to, and really looking at their selves in terms of their capabilities and what they can bring to the table, they certainly can beat the seahawks. If I was the 49ers coach, this would be the game that I would be doing film study very intensively this week, with a bunch of over nighters, and many a pot of coffee. That's the one thing with Walsh that I missed, I remembered always seeing Walsh on the side lines televised, with his bloodshot eyes and the players just completely dominating their opponents, because Walsh had already won the battle before the battle was even fought. GO 49ERS!!!
