SANTA CLARA – History? Yeah, the 49ers have some with the Dallas Cowboys. Some of the greatest NFC playoff battles, in fact.

The 49ers, under first-year coordinator Steve Wilks, are yielding touchdowns on 2/3 of red-zone drives, possessions that typically see opponents chip away against zone coverage before man-to-man defense is summoned.
