The 49ers have given a league worst 32 runs of 10 plus and 11 of over 20 yards this season. The Saints on the other hand of a league low 1 run of over 20 yards and are 30th in the NFL with 3 runs of 10 plus yards.
The Saints are on pace for 30 rushes of 10yards and 2 runs of 40 yards. Compare that to the 2009 and 2011 seasons when the Saints had 51 and 54 runs of 10 plus yards and 14 runs of 20 plus yards both of those seasons
Yes the 49ers rush defense is bad. But some of the credit should go to the teams and RB they faced liked David Johnson, Erizkel Elliot and Leshon McCoy. Plus they faced alot of teams that mobile QB that used the read option.
My worst fear about this game is that the Saints will be try to establish the run and a have few drives that go for 7 to 9 plays 30 to 40 yards and stall around the 49ers 40 yard line cause of a run that stuffed for a 3 yard loss or Brees pass on 3rd down after running the ball on 1st and 2nd down gets batted down at the line of scrimage. And Kapernick will make a play where scramble for like 60 yard run or threw a 80 yard td pas on a broken play. And then Brees frustrated threw a pick on a forced threw cause the Saints are not letting him threw on first down at all cause there trying to establish the run and at halftime were down 21-6
