It's impossible to "crowd the middle of the field" and defend the outside run. Our slowest RB, Tevin Coleman, runs a 4.40 40.
Green Bay sat on every slant, every DIG route, and played a bear front but couldn't stop the outside run because of it. They're corners, safeties, and linebackers were constantly getting pinned inside.

Chiefs stopped Derrick Henry from their base 4-3 and nickel packages. They won't run a 'bear front' against SF.
