But teams are playing us different and doing things differently, and we need to adjust a little better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sorensen responded on October 8, saying that he didn\u2019t think that was the case.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think it was something we didn\u2019t adjust. We started changing some of the calls, and we did mix up, whether it was two-high or brought pressure,\u201d\u00a0Sorensen said. \u201cI thought we talked about it on the sideline, what happened on that one play, and I don\u2019t think it was really any breakdown or miscommunication on not adjusting late because we were changing things up and getting different looks with our shell, and with bringing different types of pressures as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whether or not it was due to adjustments,\u00a0the 49ers\u00a0defense deserves some leeway. Even 49ers head coach\u00a0Kyle Shanahan\u00a0knows the team gave up too many turnovers to win the game.<\/p>\n<h2>49ers HC Backs RB, Explains Turnovers<\/h2>\n<p>During his post-game press conference, Shanahan was asked about\u00a0RB Jordan Mason\u00a0allowing\u00a0QB Brock Purdy\u00a0to be disrupted during his last interception.<\/p>\n<p>According to Shanahan, Mason had no real chance as the Cardinals overloaded the blitz on that side. If anything,\u00a0the Niners HC\u00a0said that Purdy has to get the ball out faster.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, they had a blitz. We had two guys, when two guys blitz the back that means you\u2019re hot and we\u2019ve just got to get rid of the ball quicker,\u201d\u00a0Shanahan said.\u00a0\u201c\u2026 We all had our part. We had four possessions in the second half and we had three turnovers and one turnover on down. To make it come down to the last turnover is the easier way out. But that\u2019s not the case.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s that comment that should somewhat exonerate the defense. While the 49ers only gave up the ball in their own territory once, asking the defense to consistently make big stops in a tight game can be too much to ask.<\/p>\n<h2>Purdy Speaks on Complimentary Football<\/h2>\n<p>In the same vein as Bosa\u2019s comments, Purdy also understands that the 49ers are not doing themselves favors right now. In a recent press conference, the 49ers QB said that San Francisco is not playing\u00a0complementary football.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a team sport,\u201d\u00a0Purdy said on October 8. \u201cSo, for four quarters, when the defense gets a stop for us as an offense, it\u2019s like, \u2018All right, let\u2019s pick it up and go put points on the board.\u2019 And vice versa, when we\u2019re rolling, defense gets a stop, special teams do their thing, that\u2019s complementary football. That\u2019s how you win in this league.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>San Francisco has a short turnaround before facing the\u00a0Seattle Seahawks\u00a0on October 10, so they\u2019ll have an immediate chance to get back to complementary football.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>49ers DC Disagrees with Nick Bosa\u2019s Call-Out of Defense The\u00a0San Francisco 49ers\u00a0collapsed against the\u00a0Arizona Cardinals, but Nick Bosa and Nick Sorensen aren\u2019t seeing eye-to-eye on it.
