According to NFL Football Stats, Team Ranking (link below), so far in 2019, the Niners have a 42.86% of scoring TDs when in the redzone. This is 27th of all NFL teams after three games. Last year, the team had redzone TDs of 41.18% through 16 games. That was last in the NFL. Of the great job the offense does in moving the ball between the twenties, redzone TDs still seem to be something to improve upon. In the Steelers games, chances for scoring died due to poor player execution and fumbles. Still, perhaps this is still an issue for Kyle to work on.
Wilson has provided better redzone running, but will he be active when Coleman returns?
Why doesn't Juice run the short yardage plays?
Why do few of the Niners passes from the redzone attack the endzone itself?
Are redzone plays too concerned with trickery?
Do complex plays cause the offense to tense up when near the goalline?
Does the team need even more redzone work although it was emphasized during training camp?

When you turn the ball over 3 times in the redzone that hurts your numbers. Also had penalties negate multiple touchdowns. The plays are there, they just have to execute and not turn it over. No change is needed.
This. Execution by the players
As the reps increase between Jimmy and his team around him, and it's now passed the 3rd game of the season, I expect those mistakes to clear out and we should have as mistake free football as possible. Precision and timing offense always take a couple of games to get in synch and gear up to what their true abilities are during the season. So far, even with all the mistakes, this looks like a much better team than last years.
