For the last two seasons, the 49ers have found themselves under .500 through the first seven weeks of the season, both times coming off of a brutal loss with the back stretch of the schedule looming as the calendar gets ready to flip towards November.
Whatever the old adage is about, “It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish,” is something these 49ers must have taken to heart, as they have played some of their most inspired football from the month of November on over the last two seasons.
Since the start of the 2021 season, the 49ers are 12-3 in games played in November, December, and January.
