This past Sunday versus the Los Angeles Chargers we saw glimpses of what the San Francisco 49ers could be defensively. I noticed several adjustments since the Chiefs game that put our defensive talent in better position to be successful. I also saw better performance from our trio of linebackers, Reuben Foster, Fred Warner, and Malcolm Smith. Against the Chiefs, Smith was a disaster, he was slow to the point of attack and often looked out of position. Against the Chargers, he played well at SAM. The combo of Foster and Warner are the focus for this article.
