Pierce being "just" 6/37 is because only the end zone can stop him on a 1-yd TD dive. I comped him to Emmitt Smith a couple weeks ago. I think he is a younger version of that. Sharp cuts, change of direction, probably comes from young legs. Oddly, pretty good tread left since Florida somehow didn't overuse him.
Jump ball to Nico Collins drew the DPI to set up the score. EZ fades aren't really my jam, but Collins is a match-up nightmare. Not really sure the 49ers are gameplanning for Collins in a preseason game, so that may not be there as much once these games count.
Earlier in the drive, Charles Omenihu had a personal foul diving at Davis Mills kneecap. Not cool, man. Fomer Texan not holding anything back.
