00:00 I have the mantra, do something different and do it well.
00:06 The Ravens were really good at that when they had their running quarterback and they just
00:10 designed a lot of runs.
00:11 Most teams did not face that very much.
00:13 They're not built to defend it very much.
00:15 And the same thing is true in this case.
00:17 The difference, though, is what I was saying.
00:18 Steve Spagnuolo and this Kansas City Chiefs defense, they've played a ton of teams that
00:22 use two backs out on the field this year, more than I think they've got the second highest
00:27 number of plays against them from two back sets.
00:31 So they're well conditioned against this.
00:33 They faced it a lot.
00:34 They haven't had a lot of success, but they're really good at getting their linebackers flowing
00:38 to cover the run game on the perimeter.
00:42 And that's exactly where the 49ers like to attack with Christian McCaffrey.
00:45 So I think what's going to end up happening here, and we'll talk about it in the next
00:48 segment when I get to Debo Samuel, I think that we're going to see Kyle Shanahan feel
00:54 the need to get a little bit more creative in the run game because all the McCaffrey,
01:00 McCaffrey, McCaffrey, first, second down in the first half of the game is not maybe gaining
01:04 as many yards as he wants them to.
01:06 So he's probably going to mix in a little bit more Debo Samuel as a rusher in this game,
01:10 in my opinion, to kind of create an X factor to give the Chiefs something different to
01:15 look at.
