"Stop the run, and we can have some fun" was coined by former 49ers player Arden Key, emphasizing the importance of run defense for a successful pass rush.
Despite a strong 2022 season where the 49ers' run defense was ranked No. 2, the 2023 unit has drastically declined, landing at No. 26 in run defense.
With defensive tackle Javon Hargrave likely out for the season due to a torn triceps, the 49ers face significant challenges against powerful running backs.
Nick Bosa stated that the 49ers are adjusting their schemes after conceding 244 rushing yards over two games, indicating a need for strategic changes.
