Half of the 49ers season is over and the 49ers are currently sitting near the bottom of the league at 1-7. Only the Cleveland Browns (0-9) can stop the 49ers from getting the #1 pick of the 2017 NFL Draft. They lost 41-23 against the New Orleans Saints and their defense continues to put up poor performances. This was the 7th straight week that the defense has allowed an opposing RB to gain 100 yards rushing. That happens to be a NFL record.
In a recurring theme, the RBs facing the 49ers defense had a field day. Mark Ingram ran for 158 yards and Tim Hightower ran for 87 yards.
