For the fourth time this season, the San Francisco 49ers have found themselves with a lead in the fourth quarter against an NFC West opponent.
The most recent instance was in Week 6 when the 49ers had a 23-17 lead in Seattle entering the fourth before beating the Seahawks 36-24 last month. Unfortunately, the same script wasn’t followed on Sunday, as Seattle overcame a fourth-quarter deficit to upset the 49ers, 20-17.
Despite the four fourth-quarter leads in the division, the 49ers fell to 1-3 in the NFC West with the loss on Sunday.
