Notice we shut them down completely in the first quarter. I think 49'ers ended up with -6 yards of total offense in the first quarter. But as soon as the 49'ers stopped going 3 and out and their drives started getting longer, the defense began getting worse. This was even more evident in the second half when we started turning the ball over and punting. The defense was out there a lot with very little rest on the sidelines.

I said after the lost to the Panthers that we had a conditioning issue. Our defense shouldn't tire this easily.
