Prescott faces elite 49ers pass rush despite sack avoidance; Cowboys tackles rank 3rd/4th in blown-block rate.

Prescott, like Kirk Cousins, does not take sacks, but he will face significant pressure from the 49ers' elite pass rush. The 49ers lead the league in sack percentage on offense at 3% (Raiders second at 3.2%, Cowboys fifth at 3.8%), and Dallas ranks eighth in pressure rate allowed. The Cowboys' tackles rank third and fourth in blown-block rate among players with 350+ snaps (5.3% and 5.2% combined for eight sacks), compared to 49ers tackles Colton McKivitz (2.3%) and Trent Williams (2%). Prescott will be under pressure to keep pace with Brock Purdy in a game where Dallas may fall behind early.
