It's hardly a gimmick. Read options have been around for a while, just nobody bother to use them.

Re: how do we stop 49ers vaunted pistol offense?
The first few times Kaepernick hands it off, Ngata clobbers him.....everytime he hands off or runs you hit him, and hit him hard. We are a physical team.....it gives us a chance to be more physical.

Re: how do we stop 49ers vaunted pistol offense?
question: If you look at the teams the 49ers played after Kaep became starter and compare them to who the Ravens had to play during that time period, who do you think is more tested right now?

Re: how do we stop 49ers vaunted pistol offense?
we need to take the lead, not bs through the first quarter running 10/12 times on first down and then going wild in the second half. we need to keep the pedal to the metal and score and force kap to throw the ball. im 100% sure our D wont fold like the falcons

Re: how do we stop 49ers vaunted pistol offense?
just finished watching some 9ner game footage. Just at first glance i would say the obvious, play contain with the outside linebackers. But what i would add to this is bringing up the corners particularly when they come out in these two back sets. What cant be overstated is how well their o line is playing in space. their guards really get a hat on a head with down field blocking.
Lets be pro active rather than reactive to this read option crap by blitzing a nickel.
This might sound crazy but i would like to see them bring the strong safety in the box to play press, then blitz Jimmy Smith from the slot every now and again. i haven't watched nearly enough film on Kapernick but i see him making a lot of passes on crossing routes and comebacks. Routes where guys are partially or fully squared up on the ball. i want to see his receivers forced into making over the shoulder/head receptions in man coverage with one deep safety.

If the Ravens can jump out to an early lead and force the 9ers into obvious passing situations, it would go a long way to neutralizing the read option. Easier said than done, however.

Re: how do we stop 49ers vaunted pistol offense?
Just wanted to bring this thread back up. I feel like we should be analyzing their offense more. I think our offense just needs to do what they do against their defense, but where we really need our masterminds focusing their attention during the lead-up to this game is how do we stop that Pistol offense with their read-option. I don't think it's unstoppable, but I'm curious about more ideas for stopping it. I keep reading 49ers fans say that what the Seahawks did to stop them won't work again because the real reason their offense stalled in that game was due to fatigue from the previous week. Anybody buy that?
