Description

The San Francisco Forty-Niners have unexpectedly shifted their focus from a passing game to a powerful rushing attack, ranking eighth in Expected Points Added per play since week seven. This dramatic improvement, attributed to the return of tight end George Kittle and improved play from Dominick Puni, has boosted their rushing success rate to third in the NFL. This newfound strength on the ground is crucial for controlling the games pace and scoring points, potentially making the Forty-Niners a surprise contender in the playoffs.
