49ers Aim to Halt Dual-Threat QBs, Prepare for Thursday Night Football Showdown

The San Francisco 49ers are preparing to face the New York Giants and quarterback Daniel Jones, who poses a challenge as a dual-threat quarterback. The 49ers have historically struggled against dual-threat quarterbacks, and they aim to change that narrative in Week 3. Head coach Kyle Shanahan and defensive coordinator Steve Wilks acknowledge Jones' athleticism and ability to run, as well as his improvement as a pocket passer. Defensive end Nick Bosa, who has yet to record a sack this season, is expected to play a crucial role in containing Jones. The 49ers are favored to win, but the dual-threat ability of Jones could make the game closer than expected.
