The San Francisco 49ers are currently on a three-game losing streak, a trend they are looking to stop as soon as possible.
Their most recent loss was a blowout, falling 31-17 to the Cincinnati Bengals.
After this game, head coach Kyle Shanahan made his feelings very clear, opening up about the loss.
According to reporter Rob Lowder, Shanahan said, “This isn’t on any coach or side of the ball,” adding, “We haven’t scored over 20 points in three weeks, too.
” Shanahan seems to understand that the 49ers’ struggles are not tied to one specific player or coach.
Their struggles have seemingly been across the board, resulting in losses to teams that they weren’t expecting, including a loss against the Cleveland Browns.
For a team expected to contend for first place in the NFC, the 49ers’ recent efforts have been surprising.
Brock Purdy quickly became a fan favorite last year thanks to his dominant play, but during the 49ers’ skid, he threw more interceptions than touchdown passes.
This results in poor performance from the offense, which appears to have been the case early in the season.
Hopefully this team will regain form for the rest of the season, hopefully making it to the playoffs.
Their next three opponents are the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Seattle Seahawks, one of their division rivals.
Each of these three teams presents a unique challenge for the 49ers, potentially putting them in an even more difficult situation.
