The 49ers are gearing up for their second showdown against the Arizona Cardinals.
DeMeco Ryans’ defense held Arizona to a season-low in points scored and total yards during their Week 5 matchup. Then, after the bye, they stumbled guarding Michael Pittman Jr at home. But the Niners looked like a competent football team last week. They were notably led by Jimmy Garoppolo’s homecoming heroics. The offensive line kept Garoppolo clean and tormented the Bears’ defensive line.
Ryans talked about Armstead moving inside on base downs below.
Is keeping Armstead inside somewhat a function of DT Javon Kinlaw not being available?
