SANTA CLARA — There’s something to be said about the ball bouncing your way, and for much of this season, it hasn’t for the 49ers.
They’re last in the NFL in takeaways with just five. The second-to-last team, the Baltimore Ravens, are in the double digits with 11.
49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh is in disbelief regarding the low amount of takeaways, calling it an anomaly that has sunk the team to 4-10.
"I’ve never seen it like this before in my life, where the ball just sits on the ground, and the bounces that other teams have gotten the drops,” Saleh said Thursday.
