This makes me even more concerned about our Dline (after the Rams game). The graph just confirms what I thought about Oline. But the Dline should've been eating, a lot verses the Rams and should again verses the Patriots.

Completely disagree it's a "closing window" for this team - not when you have a QB like Purdy along with the overall talent on both sides of the ball.

I dunno amigo....

I still think you can make an argument that LT has been a bigger issue than RT.....plus the runs to the right side have looked cleaner than the runs to the left side......

When I watch these other games I see something called a "pocket." The games on TNF, SNF, MNF or YouTube Sunday Ticket. I can't believe how bad our line is. It's like a total collapse on a lot of plays. Most of the other NFL lines aren't like this if you watch. I'm actually shocked at how good they are. Look at the Cowboys line last night. Much better than ours. Puni is great. TW when he is in shape. Banks is pretty good when healthy. But man the C and RT are horrific. They completely blow up our whole line.

I've noticed that this year too...Hold outs suck... I thought TW would have been fine due to how long he's played but that is incorrect.

According to Pro Football Focus, McKivitz finished Sunday's game with a 42.8 pass-blocking grade and allowed five pressures, three hurries, a QB hit, and a sack on 43 pass-blocking snaps.

Digging deeper. McKivitz had 20 true pass-blocking sets and finished with a worse pass-blocking grade of 36.3. McKivitz's true pass efficiency was a team-low 84.4.

One common thing with bad players- they don't get better. They usually get worse. My guess is because teams know you are a weak link so they attack you more, the more bad film you have out there. Good players at least flash, have dominant games mixed in with bad games, or good games mixed in with bad.

Seeing that they are trying trying Spencer Burford at Tackle..

It made think about where Daniel Brunskill is...if he's available and how he's doing.

Seems he's not *available* and doing fine on both fronts.


Edit-

These guys are gonna get Purdy killed

Oline is worthless!!!!

Playing like butt cheeks

You expecting these dudes to get open for the WR's? Purdy has time today to work. For the season they've been down but today it ain't them lol.

I think we can make the playoffs, but I can't see this line as it is after 4 games holding up against playoff defenses very well.

The Rams aren't exactly a pass rushing juggernaut and they were still able to continually get pressure on Purdy. Then you had several whiffed blocks in the run game that resulted in either no gain or a loss.

If you want to argue that they've played well, be my guest.

those ends on the rams have looked good multiple times...they might be better then we thought....

side note

We have heard from multiple player how complex the running and blocking scheme is for the 49ers, it is quite possible you can't just drop in any rookie center and get the calls right.

It is super easy to say "get better players", it is a completely different thing to find the guy who can do what is being asked.

I really think the future of the 49er line should be a mix of finding these "rare" dudes who can move and think the way the 49ers seem to need, then RETAIN THEM. If you can't just restock them...retain them. Take Puni for example, hey look we plugged a hole....do we let him leave in 3 years, to start this process again?

I hope Nugent is the answer and they are crash coursing him in what he needs to know to take over the position at the latest next year.
