The San Francisco 49ers continue searching for their first win, but another loss will bring some history. If the 49ers lose to the New York Giants in Week 10, they will drop to 0-10. No real surprise with that, but with the loss it would appear they will be officially eliminated from playoff contention.
Joe Ferreira does a ton of research on tiebreaker rules, and he sees no tiebreakers favoring the 49ers if they don’t win on Sunday. This is not entirely shocking, but it is also notable that they would be the earliest team eliminated since the Denver Broncos in 1967.
