The San Francisco 49ers have won two straight and find themselves with another year-end surge. A year ago, the 49ers won five straight and six of their last seven to close the season at 6-10. This year, they have improved to 4-10 with a chance to maybe swing one more win before the season wraps. And even if they do lose these final two games, confidence is growing.
Each week, we run our site FanPulse to see how confident 49ers fans are. It’s been up and down for much of this year, but each of the past three weeks the confidence has risen, and fan confidence is the highest it’s been since Jimmy Garoppolo hurt.
