2011 49ers had a nice easy schedule and was hitting the turnover lottery that season.
Offense being retrograde at time had a lot to do with holdout and system change, Injuries at WR, offensive line pass blocking was not good and neither was run blocking actually, RG and RT specifically. And the genius HC and his offense ability should be questioned after the past 2 49ers seasons.
Gore went from 4 catches a game to 1.
Redzone offense or near the redzone sucked. It was who cares, we'll kick a FG.
In 2010 the 49ers led the NFL in QB Rating in the Redzone 112.8
They fired the original OC Singletary had recruited and opened up the offense with Smith in shotgun more. Sing still sabotaged himself by playing Troy Smith.
Look at how Smith finished 2010. Last 8 games *1 left with injury *1 came in in 4Q
1638 Yards 12 TD 5 INT
And Frank Gore hurt his hip and was out in Week 11 on.
2015 KC > 2011 SF
But in 2011 it was free pass to playoffs an division win. 1st things 1st is getting past DEN.
