49ers Defense Struggles In Week 9 Loss
3 years agoThe San Francisco 49ers defense failed to stop James Conner during a 31-17 Week 9 loss against the Arizona Cardinals, surrendering three total touchdowns to the fifth-year running back on Sunday. The 49ers failed to force a turnover and recorded two sacks in an otherwise lackluster performance against back-up quarterback Colt McCoy, who threw for nearly 250 yards and a touchdown. This defensive unit in San Francisco is not the same as years past, meaning they can be faded in most fantasy leagues, as their inability to stop opposing offenses is becoming a liability. A difficult divisional matchup against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 10 means the 49ers D/ST can be dropped to league waiver wires.
