This is something I find interesting.
In your normal game, SF seems to want to start Armstead at DE, get ahead of the sticks, and then put Ford in to pin his ears back.
But if they do that this game, they’re never going to get a good enough rush on Mahomes. Take Ford off the field and we aren’t even remotely worried anymore outside of Bosa.
So does SF start Ford and play him at a snap count in which he hasn’t most of the year? Maybe, but now you’re looking at an opportunity for KC to run right at him.
