The 49ers are a 3.5-point favorite in this week's game, likely leading to a rushing game script.Given their underlying traits and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the 49ers to run on 45.5% of their opportunities: the 5th-greatest frequency among all teams this week.Windy weather conditions (like the 16-mph being called for in this game) generally cause worse passing efficiency, lower air volume, and higher run volume.The 49ers offensive line ranks as the 7th-best in the league last year in run blocking.
