Brock Purdy has been kept clean this season, but Denver's front will be a litmus test for where the 49ers offensive line actually is. Purdy's elusiveness and mobility, and how frequently he can extend plays with his legs before the Denver pass rush gets to him, will be a factor.

Purdy faces first real pass-rush test against Denver's blitz-heavy defense.

Purdy has been kept clean through three games (zero sacks, four negative plays allowed), but Denver's pass rush will be his first real test. Denver ranks 19th in pressure rate (22.6%) but blitzes on 33.1% of dropbacks (ninth-highest), led by Zach Allen with three sacks. Purdy's elusiveness and mobility to extend plays with his legs before Denver's front gets to him will be a critical factor in determining whether the 49ers' offensive line can maintain its perfect start.
