This counts any drive where they get to or start on the 49ers 49 yard line or closer. Also worth noting 10 points came from an int return for a TD and a field goal set up by a long kick return. Other noteworthy things:

Five of the drives were ended by turnovers.

Three of the drives were ended by turnover on downs.

Only ONE drive ended due to a missed field goal.

Two drives resulted in a touchdown, two drives resulted in a field goal. The final two were punts.

As much hate as Wilkes has gotten (which I’ve given him a lot of admittedly), it should be noted how good our defense has been once they cross into our territory. A strong example of bend, don’t break. Is this due to our players’ talent or because of coaching? Someone smarter than me will have to tell you. I just noticed quite a few possessions going into our territory that ended up amounting to not much.

    This defense was great when Wilks got here.
