No seriously I'm worried...

That being said, luckily Brock gets rid of the ball pretty quickly.....and more importantly knows how to protect himself from hard hits.. if he doesn't avoid them.

Hope they can somehow gel early on.

Every time we mention it we are thrown stats about how good they were last year. I trust my eyes on game day lol

I can see where you are coming from. When you watch all the 49ers games from beginning to end but only watch highlights of every other team in the NFL, its easy to build a false narrative about how bad or good your team actually is. This is exactly the reason why comparing efficiency stats with other teams is a better way to judge your own team. It is impossible to watch every snap of every team every week unless you have no job and no life outside of football.

Especially when it really matters. You can be the consensus #1 OL of all time but you're not going to play that way every minute of every game.

Like Joe Montana from the 86' recap: "Joe Montana isn't always great. But he's always great when he needs to be."

Tier 1 OL's can be the same way because they have the talent to do so. You're not going to quantify that with average-based stats.

Is giving up a 35% pressure rate in the SB being great when you need to be?

Tier 1 qbs are the ones that can't be quantified with average based stats.

Exactly right. No different than the b***hing about drafting. They aren't perfect but they are better than most.

For real. The #1 o line gave up 2 sacks in the SB while the #1 pass rush got no sacks.

Nice comments guys..Critical thinking is so much better than toxic positivity 👏

I only really watch good teams against a perceived weakness to really know how we are. The Oline last year proves we were great at times and blew at others. This year don't get me started lol. If we want to be great again someday we need to be solid at all position groups, not great at all groups but solid. Not feeling that way this year yet.

Are you saying that the 49ers o line 30.9% pressure rate looked worse than the eagles o line 31.6% pressure rate? I thought a pressure was a pressure or can one be worse than another?

Agree, OLines don't have to be great every down, just ALL third downs.

I think - at least for the OLine - and the Zone blocking, durabililty aguments the OLine talent. Hopefully I'm right and that on 3rd downs and money downs (goal line situations) this developing OLine will be great on those money downs. Next year I want some talent injecten into that OLine - at least a first round level talent as a future replacement for Trent, and for Brock's health. Last thing I want to happen is for Brock to retire prematurely like Andrew Luck.
I would be interested in 3rd and medium-long pass pro stats. I wonder what it would reveal as far as sack% and pressure rate around the league.

Last year it was we were not good in pass pro vs good Dlines. Look to the playoffs and you can see when we faced Dallas and Philly. I know the Purdy injury was a bad call with our back up TE against Haason Reddick. Run blocking we were good.

This year if we get an injury on the line look out which is what I was pointing out.

Not agreeing with that but we have a weakness look at last yrs film. We were good with the run game not pass pro, this year not so much so far. We shall see as the season progresses.

All you need to study is what happens once we get up by 10. LOL
