Well, that is kind of the point of the defense. The defense relies on creativity to generate pressure. Clay Matthews is the only guy that can lineup and consistently beat an opponent one-on-one, though they even get creative with him. I did like what I saw from Mike Daniels, though. He’s somebody to keep an eye on next season.
The defense played as well as it could. After Kaepernick's scramble on the last drive, the defense ran out of gas. Right now, the 49ers are a level above Green Bay. I don’t know if you want to get into labels and whatnot, but they are better. The Packers have descended a level since 2011. Some of it is defense. Some of it is offensive line. A lot of it is the inability to stay healthy.
