The 49ers should know exactly where they need to improve heading into the offseason.
Sunday’s season finale against the Los Angeles Rams, a 48-32 blowout loss, typified the team’s struggles throughout their 4-12 season.
San Francisco, with no takeaways on the day, broke the NFL record for the fewest in a season with seven. And, they committed four turnovers, giving them a minus-25 turnover differential, tied for the 10th-worst mark in NFL history.
On the bright side, Sunday’s defeat ensured the 49ers will have the No. 2 pick in the draft, perhaps a defender who could help generate more turnovers or another building block for coach Kyle Shanahan’s offense.
