The San Francisco 49ers have invested a TON in their defensive line — not just four first round picks in the last four years (including Rueben Foster), but even adding a separate pass rush coach (Chris Kiffin) specifically to help with the anemic results.
Before Monday night, they still didn’t have much to show for it this season. After six games, San Francisco is tied for 21st in the league for forced fumbles (4), and 22nd in the league in sacks, with 12.
But three of those sacks came against Green Bay, which has one of the league’s best QBs and (per Geoff Schwartz) a top-six offensive line.
