We have a winner. 42.3% of plays w/ at least 8 men in box. League average is 23.3% @MarkusEricsson: @PFF Gore?

Little troubling, but it was in a totally different offense we will ahve in KC.
There are a couple of reasons to put 8 men in the box. You might do it because you don't respect the QB. Or you might be forced to do it if you can't stop the run with 7. San Francisco has a pretty powerful run blocking line.

According to PFF, San Francisco had the #1 and #2 run blocking tackles in the league. They had the #3 and #5 run blocking guards. And the weak link was the Branden Albert of centers at #10.
