What do you think McVay has up his sleeve for the Niners? I listened to his interview and, while he did say he'd rest some players, he didn't say he was sitting them all. I still think he wants to get 1) the win, 2) Gurley the rushing title and MVP and 3) the scoring title.
I think we'll see Gurley and Goff for at least the first half with heavy dose of the run (with Gurley and Brown) mixed in with a few screens. Those are safe plays for Goff that will keep the clock running, shorten the game and keep Garoppolo off the field. There might be some quick passes sprinkled in but I wouldn't expect any deep balls that are going to force Jared to hold the ball too long. McVay learned from the Eagles game what can happen there. We'll probably be without Barron, Ogletree, maybe Whitworth and anyone else who is ailing. The second half will probably belong to Malcolm Brown and I'm sure he'll get his share of totes in the first half. What do you think he has in store?
