The San Francisco 49ers seemed a step slow at times during their Week 2 loss to the Carolina Panthers, and it was brought up to offensive coordinator Curtis Modkins on Tuesday. Specifically, he was asked if the heat was an issue that led to what appeared to be a slower pace:
“No, I wouldn’t say it’s heat. You know, the thing about how we operate is, whatever the pace is, we control it. So, if we decide to go really fast, it’s on us. If we decide to slow it down, it’s on us. So, the tempo in this offense, whatever it is, we control it.
