that's an MVP candidate RB, in a KS run game, putting up clown car rush totals per game
the run game has been broken, and it has a knock on effect on the rest of what we do

Have we thrown a back shoulder since Jennings v Giants?
I concur to this. The first 5 games, all wins, the 49ers were dominant in the run game. Really strong.
Game 1 - 188 team yards rushing
Game 2 - 159 team yards rushing
Game 3 - 141 team yards rushing
Game 4 - 124 team yards rushing
Game 5 - 170 team yards rushing
Game 6 - 108 team yards rushing / respectable but less than their previous average
Of 157
Game 7 - 65 team yards rushing / almost 100 team yards below average
Game 8 - 113 team yards rushing/ respectable but well below the team average. I believe Trent being back in the lineup could help get the running game back. Problem is the depth.
BP will be fine. He has the skills to succeed here, hope Kyle has a better game plan for week 10. He has to get this offense clicking again and keep defenses guessing. The first 5 games were so amazing. It seems like he needs to elevate his play calling and get the players in position to succeed. That and BP needs to forget what happened in the 3 losses and bounce back.
Gonna be a tough game v the Jags. ETN is a beast and Lawrence is looking better. The 49ers don't have that "unbeatable" stigma anymore. It is GONE. Opponents now know the 49ers can be beat and that confidence goes a LONG way.
Let's get back on track
And Brock had half of those "rushing yards."
I know. I said "team rushing yards". I like many others see the ship as headed in the right direction. Brock isn't Superman but he played like it during the win streak.
Need the running game back and the team still has a shot this year. "A chip and a chair" if you know what I mean. BP shouldn't be asked to do it all. Lighten the load, run better plays and get the other RB's on the team involved. We got this!
Love the optimism!

Turning the ball over too often also has a big effect on what we do.

Amen! Love being able to feel this way. Been since Young since I believed we stood a chance for number 6. Nope Garcia never did it for me hahaha. He didn't give me those feels but he was decent.

Because of bad decision making. Mitchell was still open for a TD even though they were trailing. QB has to execute and make better decisions.

The only reason 113 team rushing yards in week 8 seems respectable is because Purdy had, what, 60 rushing yards?
Our running backs averaged 3.3 yards per carry. That did not and will not get the job done.
That, plus the game 6 total was down because TW was playing on one leg. To make matters worse, McKivitz has been a disappointment in run blocking all season.
A fully healthy Trent impacts every area of the offense. If Banks misses time after the bye, and TW can't go, the offense will have big trouble.
Im not sure how anyone can see Mckivits as a disappointment. He's playing exactly to his draft status or more. We just didn't put an emphasis on the OL outside of Trent and Banks.
Our center is probably our best healthy lineman but I've never thought he's worth a long term deal. Playing well so far but he's rough sometimes.

He is what we thought he was - a somewhat better pass protector than McGlinchey. We hoped he would be a better RBLK than he has shown to date, but he is rated 20 points than McGlinchey. To me, the RBLK is a disappointment. Let's hope for improvement in the second half of the season.
Combine that with the fact Burford has shown little improvement from last year and your point about a failure to emphasize the OL stands out.

This. gotta be able to pull it out and win all styles of games. the opportunities were there and he just dropped the ball. hopefully next time he doesn't

Moore should get a shot at RG. He'd be better inside. Play Felciano and Moore and see how things go.

That play wasn't going to work even if he had completed the pass to Mitchell. It was supposed to be a running play and we had a lineman downfield which would have nullified the TD.

He was downfield because Brock waited too long to pull the trigger.

This is the same feel/implosion after the Denver game last year. Have faith in Kyle and Brock! What's the point in being so negative especially when Kyle has proven he can turn around a season before.
