SANTA CLARA – Hosting the last-place Arizona Cardinals on a fall afternoon is — sigh — not nearly as seductive as a prime-time showdown with the Seattle Seahawks.
That’s not to say fireworks, turnovers, big plays and overtime won’t be in store again Sunday at Levi’s Stadium.
Still licking widespread wounds after Monday night’s 27-24 loss to the Seahawks, the 49ers certainly can draw inspiration on the threat of a two-game losing streak.
