San Francisco 49ers: 5 biggest disappointments from 2018 season

Remember back at the start of the 2018 season how so many of us were thinking the San Francisco 49ers were going to legitimately contend for a playoff berth and possibly a trip to the Super Bowl?

Well, yeah. Those predictions didn’t age well.

At 4-11, the Niners’ season is essentially over. Sure, there’s one more game in Week 17 against the playoff-bound Los Angeles Rams, who’ll need to secure a win to ensure a first-round bye week in the postseason. So they won’t be resting their starters like this time a year ago, and considering how decimated by injury San Francisco is, it might be best to get into the offseason as quickly as possible.
