San Francisco has kept Brock Purdy from being sacked in each of the team's first three games this season. Since 1990, only three other NFL teams have gone through their opening three contests without allowing a sack.

Expanded Detail

Brock Purdy has not been sacked in San Francisco's first three games this season. The 49ers' protection has prevented opposing defenses from bringing him down. According to the material, since 1990, just three other NFL clubs have opened a season with three straight games without allowing a sack. That places San Francisco's start in rare company.

Context

This milestone may draw attention to offensive line play and quarterback protection, affecting 49ers fans, fantasy football managers, and analysts who track sacks. A clean pocket could help Purdy's confidence and production, which may influence how opponents scheme against San Francisco. Broader audiences might see it as a reminder that quarterback success often depends on teammates, though three games is a small sample and impact could remain limited.
