The San Francisco 49ers lost their 13th straight game on Sunday, this time dropping a 41-13 decision on the road against the Atlanta Falcons.
The San Francisco 49ers face a daunting task this Sunday in Atlanta as they take on the high-scoring Falcons in the Georgia Dome. It's not likely the 49ers will snap their 12-game losing streak, especially without two starters on offense. Both wide receiver Torrey Smith and offensive lineman Joe Staley didn't practice this week, and the two players are listed as out and doubtful, respectively, for Week 15's game. Otherwise, the San Francisco roster looks relatively healthy for its matchup with the long-time NFC West Division foe from the East Coast.
The 49ers are far from the playoffs as they try to end a franchise-record 12-game losing streak in Sunday's game against the Falcons.

The year was 1983, and the San Francisco 49ers weren't the Team of the Decade just yet. In fact, after winning the Super Bowl for the first time in 1981, the 49ers slipped well back under .500 in the strike-shortened 1982 regular season and missed the playoffs. Thus, the following season was a big one for the San Francisco organization: Would the 49ers drift back into obscurity or would the team remain relevant in the NFC power hierarchy? One of the craziest games of 1983 was a road game in Atlanta against the Falcons, the 1980 and 1982 NFC West Division champions. Here's what happened.

Riding a 12-game losing streak isn't a good thing for the San Francisco 49ers as they prepare for a Week 15 matchup in Atlanta against the Falcons. Tied for first place in the NFC South Division and possessing the top scoring offense in the NFL, the Falcons present a daunting challenge for the 49ers right now.

It's a sad time for San Francisco 49er fans.
With a 17-3 halftime lead over the New York Jets, it looked as though the San Francisco 49ers were going to break an 11-game losing streak on Sunday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. Alas, a team that has forgotten how to win fell apart in the second half, allowing the Jets to tie the score and eventually win on overtime.
As the San Francisco 49ers approach a home game in Week 14 against the New York Jets this Sunday, the team is relatively healthy. That's good news for a team that is 1-11 and trying to avoid setting a franchise-worst mark for losses in a single season. The Jets matchup may be the last good chance for the 49ers to win another game in 2016.

The San Francisco 49ers are having a forgettable season this year, losers of 11 straight games. As the team prepares to host the New York Jets this Sunday, though, there is some good news for the team. Wide receiver Torrey Smith was announced as the Niners' nominee for the 2016 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year, annually given to the NFL player best exemplifying a commitment to philanthropy and community involvement.
After playing on Monday Night Football in Week 13, the New York Jets will travel to San Francisco take on the 49ers at Levi's Stadium in Week 14. That means the Jets will be on short rest, while the 49ers have an extra day to prepare for their guests. San Francisco has an 11-game losing streak, and this may be the team's last chance for a second win in 2016.

The San Francisco 49ers lost on the road to the Chicago Bears, 26-6, on a day when the once-proud organization quarterback tradition took a major hit. The 49ers totaled just six yards net passing in the loss, resulting in a franchise record no team with Head Coach Chip Kelly should be setting.
The San Francisco 49ers have a bad defense this season, and part of the problem has been a lot of injuries. Not only did the 49ers lose the heart and soul of the defense (NaVorro Bowman) earlier this year to a season-ending injury, but linebacker Aaron Lynch has been absent for most of the season due to suspension and injury. The S.F. organization has not been able to fill this void, and Lynch is still questionable for Sunday's game in Chicago.
