2011 49ers
82 rush attempts in the redzone AVG 2.1
2012 Falcons
81 rush attempts in the redzone AVG 2.2
Michael Turner and Jacquizz Rodgers were somehow better than Gore and the 49ers.
49ers were over 20% in the percentage of passes in the redzone that ended up as TDs in 2009 and 2010.
The drop to 15% in 2011 goes beyond Alex Smith. It was actually 1 point worse than what Smith did in 2006.
