And Chenal - might be our best LB against the run when he's on it, and I could see them rotating him in to overload their OL. If we plug the gaps well and bring Deebo down early, I think we're 90% there.
I feel more confident than all the other playoff games this year...which makes me nervous.

Here's how much our perspective has been thrown off.
"Attack Bolton in coverage" you say...
Our linebackers against SF in the previous Super Bowl were Anthony Hitchens, Reggie Ragland and Damien Wilson.
Bolton is SUBSTANTIALLY better than all three of those guys in coverage. Kid ran a 4.6.
