Garoppolo may need to do more in Super Bowl

After riding their running backs through two playoff games, the 49ers may need Jimmy Garoppolo to do more in the Super Bowl, writes Neil Greenberg:

“San Francisco scored six more points per game than expected on passing plays during the regular season after factoring in the down, distance and field position of each attempt, per data from TruMedia. The 49ers scored three fewer points per game than expected on rushing plays. During the postseason, however, the 49ers have scored six more points than expected on running plays, which is unlikely to continue. Only the 2017 Philadelphia Eagles have exceeded that mark in a Super Bowl over the past 17 years.”
