"learning the system" is a bad excuse for running backs, and it's a bad excuse for an edge rusher. If Nick Bosa can walk into SF and make an impact, a vet like Clark could do so here. He simply has underperformed so far. He's got some time to remedy that. He's hurt, but at least he finally had an impact game.

I don't get this "he needs to learn the system shit either. In the off-season they were saying how much they love the new system, because you can just go out and play and not worry about much.
