Breaking down the box score: The numbers say the 49ers shut down Tampa Bay

Now that we have actual San Francisco 49ers game film, we can use analytics and stats to take a deeper dive into the box score. I was talking to my buddy from Bleeding Green Nation, Michael Kist, who did something similar on the Eagles offense. In today’s world, stats like completion percentage, total yards, tackles, and so many more don’t come close to telling the truth about what really happened during the game. For example, Tarvarius Moore was second on the team in tackles, but only one of those was a “stop,” so that doesn’t mean he had a good game.
