Denver drove right down the field and scored a TD on the first drive against our first team D like it was nothing with a QB that had 1 career snap. Nice sack by Bowman gets erased by a hold on Ward. That wasn't impressive.
First drive on offense was a 3 and out.
Nice play by Ried on a horrible pass.
2 crappy drives and 2 punts. 1 good drive TD for the starters.
Turnovers were bad.
Don't care about points in the 2nd half when scrubs are playing.
49ers offense
2nd in total ypg 405
1st in rush ypg 210
17th in pass ypg 195
All against the 1st and 3rd ranked deafenses from last year.
It's only pre season, and both offenses and defenses for all teams are vanilla, but to be anything but optimistic at this point would seem to be trying to find something wrong. The 49ers have also held their own and then some in the first half of both games.
Are there issues? Yes, but there are for most teams.
