Well, at least they have that new quarterback.
Six days after their 16-game nightmare was briefly interrupted by positive news - the acquisition of Jimmy Garoppolo - the 49ers went back to their regularly scheduled losing.
A week after becoming the first team in franchise history to start 0-8, the 49ers stumbled deeper into ignominy with a 20-10 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday at Levi’s Stadium.
Garoppolo served as the No. 2 quarterback and didn’t play because he’s just learning the playbook. Looking ahead, the 49ers aren’t eager for Garoppolo to start behind a leaky offensive line that’s currently missing Pro Bowl left tackle Joe Staley and what they witnessed Sunday surely solidified that stance.
