With a 14-point advantage, the 49ers are heavily favored in this week's game, suggesting much more of a focus on running than their typical approach.The leading projections forecast the San Francisco 49ers as the 4th-most run-focused team on the slate this week with a 50.4% run rate, accounting for their underlying traits and matchup dynamics.As it relates to executing run-blocking assignments (and the impact it has on all run game statistics), the O-line of the 49ers grades out as the 7th-best in the league last year.The Washington Commanders defensive ends rank as the 8th-worst collection of DEs in football this year when it comes to stopping the run.
