Garoppolo's TD pass was to George Kittle who was open by ten yards BECAUSE GAROPPOLO LOOKED OFF THE DEFENSE. Remember that, Cardinal quarterbacks.
I'd ask other people in the Stanford program to look at that play to Kittle. To me, that's a prime example of scheming a player open. Wow, was that an impressive play from conception to completion.
Here's the play:

Key was selling the fake, which got all the linemen flowing left, and James pulling the linebacker (Preston Smith) with him. Smith had a free avenue to the Garopolo, but I suspect if he had taken it, Garopolo would have dumped the ball off to James, who would have had a lot of grass ahead of him.
