Coach Talk

49erFaithful
Hey, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by utterly dominating Canadian all star at the wide receiver position (44.85 points to 7.05).
Canadian all star
Well, we can't really complain about a shortage of opportunities this time, can we? Our pass-catching corps (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 23 times in Week 2. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group reeled in just 14 receptions.
