The Monday Night Football battle could be a low-scoring affair because of the NFC West rivals’ stout defenses and struggling offenses.
SANTA CLARA — It’s common knowledge that Rams coach Sean McVay and San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan worked together as assistants in Washington, but that likely won’t stop the ESPN broadcast from mentioning it a few times during the Monday Night Football matchup between NFC West rivals.
Shanahan is known for his highly productive rushing scheme and for leading the 49ers to a Super Bowl appearance in 2020. McVay instantly had success with his heavy use of 11 personnel and guided the Rams to a Super Bowl title last season. But the 49ers have star edge rusher Nick Bosa on their side, and he’ll face a Rams’ offensive line that will be without its starting guards.
“I think everyone was just like, ‘Holy crap,’ ” Edwards recalled. “You wouldn’t expect a receiver to generate that type of power, but he did. He’s giving us another element to our offense.”
