The 49ers' offense is slowly catching up to their defense that’s playing lights out. Since Week 10, which was after the bye week and when they’ve had a chance to fully acclimate Christian McCaffrey into the offense, the offense is second in DVOA only to the Chiefs. San Francisco is also fifth in EPA per play, which tells you they’re generating explosive plays.
It’s not like the Niners are playing the bottom of the barrel. The Commanders were a top-10 defense coming into last week. The 49ers have the Jimmy’s and Joe’s, but it’s the down-to-down execution, blocking, and process from Brock Purdy that’s aided them during this winning streak.
