The San Francisco 49ers offensive line has been under scrutiny, often seen as a weak link in the team's setup. However, recent analysis suggests that their struggles may not be as severe as perceived. With key players returning, such as Trent Williams, who serves as the anchor of the line, expectations are high for improvement.

Brock Purdy's playing style last season, particularly his tendency to hold onto the ball longer, has raised concerns about the line's pass protection. Yet, overall, the O-line's performance is expected to rebound, especially with a more robust unit and a potential shift in play calling that could alleviate some pressure.
