People talk about how the Ravens had two 1st round tackles playing a good level... but look at the Niners. They have two 1st round tackles, plus Iupati, who's a first rounder... and Solari coaching them up. They can maul people up front. It's certainly hasn't hurt them. Even if Alex Smith flames out, the next guy will be in a great situation. Just like Kaepernick was.

Ironic thing that even behind that great O-line, Alex Smith still took the most sacks in the league and still managed to get injured.
