“Now, it was Daniel Jones, not Matthew Stafford. But the creativity in coverage was apparent, as was the decision to blitz a bit more aggressively, as the Giants were doing the same to the 49ers’ offense.
Wilks’ decision to use five down linemen this season — the best group being Bosa-Armstead-Hargrave-Kinlaw-Jackson — has paid massive dividends. It all but assures one-on-one matchups all along the line. Hargrave seems to win almost all of those reps, and often decisively against the center.”
