I theorized that the Bills had so much success on the ground for 2 reasons. 1) Allen is a physical freak and we really needed Willie Gay. 2) Spags was willing to allow him to run a bit if it meant negating his arm. He wasn’t going to let Allen torch us.
The Ravens game confirmed that for me. It was the opposite. We dared Jackson to make throws and he couldn’t.
The run game for the 49ers is much more traditional (not through a unicorn athlete at QB) which I think works better for us. Especially for a guy like Bolton.

Harbaugh was an idiot in this game. They should have run heavy all game with Jackson and Edwards. Edwards had several carries only. Lamar mostly ran on scrambles.
They were never beating the Chiefs with a pass heavy attack. Maybe if Andrews was healthier but he wasn't.
