00:00 I think the Niners come out and have a lot of success early on in this game offensively.

00:08 I think they're going to be able to do what they want to do here in some aspects of this

00:13 game because because when they go to pass the football, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers blitz

00:18 at the third highest rate of any defense in the NFL.

00:21 They allow the most yards per attempt on blitzes in large part because they rank fourth worst

00:28 in yards after the catch when teams complete passes when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are blitzing.

00:35 And where do the 49ers live?

00:37 They live for yards after the catch.

00:39 They rank fourth most yards after the catch on blitzes.

00:42 Brock Purdy doesn't have a huge target depth on blitzes, averages 7.7 yards per attempt.

00:48 But when he is being blitzed, they rack up the yak and that's something that the Bucs

00:53 allow a ton of.

00:55 I think that the Bucs are not going to have a lot of success at getting to him.

00:58 Purdy actually ranks top five in both EPA success and yards per attempt when he is being

01:04 blitzed.

01:05 So I think we're going to have a good day for Brock Purdy.

01:08 I think he's going to play well here, have a high yards per attempt average.

01:12 I do think CMC gets another touchdown on the board here.

01:17 But more than anything, I just think that the Niners are going to be able to get out

01:20 early in this game and force Baker Mayfield and company to try to play catch up.
