DB depth shines
The secondary was the biggest question mark on the 49ers’ roster heading into the year. Now it appears to be one of the team’s strong points. Emmanuel Moseley started across from Richard Sherman. Ahkello Witherspoon got some run as well in his first game back at full strength. All three corners were exceptional. So was slot corner K’Waun Williams. Jimmie Ward had two terrific pass breakups, and a tremendous tackle in the red zone to keep the Packers from scoring in the third quarter. Jaquiski Tartt added half a sack to expand the role the secondary played. Shining against Aaron Rodgers isn’t easy, but the 49ers defensive backs were superb in holding Rodgers to his second-fewest passing yards ever in a game he started and attempted at least 15 throws.
