  • Oct 20 David Lombardi (X) The 49ers have such a good pass-rushing foundation, which they didn’t have last season when they were extremely Bosa-dependent. They should still keep layering their depth as much as possible.

• INJ David Lombardi (X) DEN SEA SF Keion WhiteDL Mykel WilliamsDL Osa OdighizuwaDL Oct 9
  The Seahawks' O-line ranks down at #26 in pass-block win rate, #24 in run-block win rate. Point of interest: RG, where Seattle is running a time share between backups Christian Haynes and Beau Stephens (starter Anthony Bradford is on IR). Keion White has lined up everywhere for the 49ers — but has been particularly disruptive out of a 3-tech working vs LG (Grey Zabel). Might Mykel Williams supplement White and Osa Odighizuwa with shifts inside to work against Haynes and Stephens at that RG spot? 49ers took notable strides at DE vs Denver. They collectively rushed the passer better than I'd ever seen in a Bosa-less game. Mykel's return puts a bigger spotlight on run defense — and Seattle's ground game has struggled — but pass rushing against the interior, where the Seahawks have questions, will be huge element to determine Sunday's outcome. Because interior pressure leads to takeaways Show all
