Finally, regular season talk. There are a lot of questions surrounding the San Francisco 49ers defense heading into 2019. Here are four questions that the team will look to answer over the first month of the season, starting Week 1 against Tampa Bay.
Will pressures and turnovers continue?
In four preseason games, the defense averaged 12 pressures a game and had three interceptions. The defense didn’t face a Patrick Mahomes offense every series, but they also didn’t roll out on the field with Deion Sanders and Charles Haley on the field.
This will be the best defense the 49ers field in some time.
