5 years agoThe San Francisco 49ers Defense showed up in Week 3 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, helping the team remain undefeated. The Niners offense committed five turnovers but the defense played exceptionally well, recording two sacks and forcing two turnovers (one interception, one fumble recovery). Aside from a 76-yard touchdown catch-and-run by Steelers receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, the defense harassed unproven quarterback Mason Rudolph all day and kept the scuffling offense in the game. Through three contests, the 49ers defense has improved noticeably and could be a deep streamer in Week 5 against a leaky Cleveland Browns offensive line after emerging from their bye week.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
