In the words of the iconic Yogi Berra, “It’s getting late early.”

The San Francisco 49ers are coming off back-to-back losses against the Carolina Panthers and Seattle Seahawks, respectively, after an opening-week win against the Los Angeles Rams.

While the team has averaged just over 24 points during this early season stretch, the numbers don’t tell the true story. The 49ers offense has struggled in nearly every major measurable category when the games are still in doubt.

And it isn’t going to get any easier with Dallas Cowboys’ Ezekiel Elliott, Dak Prescott, Dez Bryant and company paying a visit to Levi’s Stadium this week.

While the 49ers defense will undoubtedly have it’s hands full slowing down the Cowboys offense, the offense needs to step up, make plays, sustain drives, and find lanes for the running game.

Hera are the five steps the 49ers offense need to take to send Dallas away with a loos in Week 4.
