About these numbers

The 49ers' interception touchdown is counted as a Patriots interception, not as a 49ers possession. Possessions that ended with the clock running out at the half or the end of the game aren't counted.

Personnel groupings, average depth of target and pass rate over expected appear when the tracking feed is connected.
