1. Aggressive Pass Rush
The 49ers rely on Brock Purdy’s efficiency and quick decision-making. If we bring relentless pressure and disrupt his rhythm, we can force him into mistakes. The key is making him uncomfortable in the pocket early. If we can get to him and force quick, pressured throws, it could lead to turnovers and stop drives before they start.
2. Tight Man Coverage on Key Weapons
Even if McCaffrey is limited or out, they’ve still got Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, and George Kittle. Seattle’s secondary needs to bring its A-game, using tight man-to-man coverage to shut down their big-play options. Blanketing these receivers will limit Purdy’s targets and keep him in check.
3. Attack the 49ers’ Linebackers with Mismatches
San Francisco’s linebackers are quick, but they can be stretched. Using pre-snap motion, tight ends, and slot receivers can create mismatches and force the linebackers into tough spots. Attacking the middle of the field can keep the 49ers on their heels and open lanes for our playmakers.
4. Establish Our Own Fast, Physical Tempo
We need to play fast, physical football right from the start. Bringing physicality early – especially with our O-line pushing their defensive front – sets the tone. Establishing our ground game will keep San Francisco’s defense honest and create space for play-action passes to get explosive downfield plays.
5. Capitalize on Every Scoring Opportunity
Against the 49ers, touchdowns are a must. No settling for field goals. When we get to the red zone, we need creativity and precision – whether it’s sending Metcalf on jump balls or finding Lockett in tight windows. Make every drive count and keep the momentum rolling.
6. Defensive Discipline and Force Turnovers
The 49ers are a well-coached team that rarely beats itself, so we need to stay disciplined and capitalize on any small mistakes they make. Our defense must play smart, stay aggressive, and go for turnovers. A couple of key picks or fumbles could be game-changers.
If we hit them hard from the get-go, control the line, and keep their offense under pressure, we can take this game. It’s all about setting the tone early, not backing down, and playing with intensity for all four quarters. Let’s go out there and show the 49ers who runs the NFC West!
