49ers Offensive Line

I watched game last night, looking to see how the IOL performed against a NYG crew that is not known for a strong DL, apart from Dexter Lawrence.

Burford looked slow, rusty, heavy. Not much improvement from Colby.

Hennessy had a pretty good game. Good in PP but just adequate in run blocking.

Puni was the highlight. He looked almost back to his 2024 form.

The big test will come next week against a strong, agile Ram front.

Brian Burns leads the league in sacks. They have a good d-line.

Other than McKivitz looking terrible like he had cement cleats on a couple of sacks etc.

This O-line impressed me run it down the Giants throat. Though it is pretty obvious that Kittle is the key to the running game.

Giants have the worst run D in the league.

Yes, Burns is good, and we saw that with the struggles McKivitz had with him. However, Lawrence is the only DT that will scare anybody on the pass rush. He can be moved in the run game as Puni demonstrated several times. The rest are lower tier guys.

Yep.

The Rams rotate three guys at DT. Each one is better than what our IOL faced last Sunday except for Dexter Lawrence and he can be doubled teamed. He also wears down in the second half due to overuse.
