The San Francisco 49ers’ O-line is earning its stripes this season, and the big-time show Sunday night had more than a few moments when the collective shined—complemented by their more famous co-worker, George Kittle.

The protection provided for Jimmy Garoppolo wasn’t an overwhelming wall, of course. Still, the steady output for the entire game made it easy to overlook and assume it was simply big guys blocking other big guys. But then, the highlights—albeit from Garoppolo and the receivers—had moments where you clearly see the front doing a standup job.

Notice the blitz pickup there?

Weston Richburgh, Michael Person, Laken Tomlinson, Justin Skule, Mike McGlinchey, and Daniel Brunskill: Solid gold, gang.
