The comparison of these D-Lines really ain’t one. If Lane and Mailata can hold MAGA Bosa to a minimum, the rest of that line is food, and the run game goin eat.

Also, Trent Williams might be one of the best linemen in football, but he can’t block everybody.

Your mistake is thinking sacks are the only thing by which a defensive line should be judged.

To wit:

The Eagles have the better pass rush, accumulating a league-high 70 sacks and a stellar sack percentage of over 11%, while the 49ers ranked around the middle of the pack with a 6.91% sack rate.
However, the 49ers are, by far, the better run defense, allowing just 77.7 yards per game and 3.4 yards per attempt, both of which rank second in the NFL, while the Eagles give up 121.6 yards per game on the ground, as well as 4.6 yards per attempt, which ranks 24th in the NFL.

Your list for the niners doesn't even include Arik Armstead. So not exactly an accurate of view of the d-line, considering he is the 2nd best lineman on the team.

Philly's running success really relies on Hurts being able to create in off schedule situations. If the expectation is that they're gonna be able to line up and blow the Niners off the ball in traditional running situations, they are in for a rude awakening.

Eagles win 34-27.

Let's get back to the superbowl!

Sweat and Reddick have become a great duo

On the other side of the ball - NFC ranks:

49ers offense:
3rd in YPG (365.6), 4th in PPG (26.5)

Eagles defense:
2nd in YPG allowed (301.5), 4th in PPG allowed (20.2)

Turnover differential:
SF: +13 (1st)
PHI: +8 (3rd)

VERY even match-up. Two superpowers collide!
