Football Master Class: Niners Run Game - OutsiderFan - 01-23-2020

If you like to understand the schematics and strategy behind what creates results on the football field, are interested in the run game in particular, and have 18 minutes to spare, you're welcome. The guy on this YouTube channel does All 22 video breakdowns after every Niners game. His video analyzing the runs employed against the Packers in the NFC Championship game is frankly mesmerizing. It almost makes you think Shanahan is slowly building his schematic mastery to culminate in a prolific offensive explosion in the Super Bowl.

The Niners have run on an absurd 75% of their offensive snaps through two playoff games. It's so unnerving that many football pundits are bought in to questioning Garoppolo as a result. Of course, the Niners have play action passes set up off all those runs. When throws start coming off what were runs against the Vikings and Packers, Chiefs defenders will become confused about what their eyes see and be hesitant in their reactions.

Wait. You mean to tell me that Stanford's power running game isn't akin to what the 'Niners do?

Okay, sarcasm aside - the two running games are not comparable. Lex probably thinks that's fine - that Stanford's (telegraphed) power running game is good enough for Stanford. I disagree. Give me an offense that keeps the D on its heels and uncertain/hesitant, and you're pretty far down the road of "very good offense."

That is one unnerving analysis. Would love to see Stanford's running game do that.

RE: Football Master Class: Niners Run Game - OutsiderFan - 01-23-2020

Shanahan's run game is nothing at all like Stanford's, and I wasn't trying to compare the two even a little bit.

RE: Football Master Class: Niners Run Game - cardcrimson - 01-23-2020

I thought that back in the day, our blocking schemes were pretty sophisticated. I think I recall a commentator mentioning the point that we were so hard to defend, because you never knew where the block was going to come from, and it always came. . . .

I'm not sure why we'd want a complex running scheme. I mean, it's not like we have a bunch of smart guys on the team. And, of course, our offense has been beyond reproach...and...you get the point.

I’ve been calling for Stanford to bring someone over from the Niners for some time now. But guess what, they don’t listen to me. Guess again , they don’t listen to you either.

Hey Teejers, sarcasm aside, I’ve been calling for Stanford to bring someone over from the Niners for some time now. But guess what, they don’t listen to me. Guess again , they don’t listen to you either.

I wonder if the fact that we had three true freshmen starters on the offensive line at one point might have affected how many wrinkles we could throw to our blocking schemes?

What was it . . . ? 25K in the stands for the ND game, with more than half rooting for the South Benders?

They better start listening to somebody because there is going to be nothing left.

Austin Hooper has thoughts on Kyle Shanahan's ability to scheme and call plays. From May 2019:
