The CBs are not weak, nor are the Safeties or Linebackers. The DL is. That is the problem 100%.

It is exacerbated by a DC who is DB-oriented and likes to blitz. The rush and coverage are not working well together and the greatest advantage the Niners have - Warner and Greenlaw in zone coverage - is compromised when they rush 5-6.

When you can't even get to the QB when you rush 6, with a DL that is suppose to get pressure with 4, something is really, really wrong.

I don't know how the issue is not Steve Wilks. That's really the only meaningfully different denominator from the last few years of largely top tier defense.

They struggled a bit early with Ryans in ‘21.  Let’s hope they figure it out.  Wilks isn’t going anywhere.

Personnel wise, DBacks is their weak link defensively.  Safeties play run well.  But lack speed. 

D line was supposed to be their strength.  I mean, weren’t you saying just 2 weeks ago that this was the best roster in 49er history? 

I expect Lynch to trade for a DB.

I’m not disagreeing with you on Wilks. But they better adjust. Or he better adjust. Cause I don’t think he’s going to get fired. Niners knew his background and tendencies coming in. Maybe just a bad fit…..
