The 49ers need to find a way to close games better

The San Francisco 49ers pulled off a 30-24 victory over the Dallas Cowboys last Sunday, improving to 4-4 ahead of their bye week, which comes at a much-needed time as the team nurses a number of injuries.

It was a game where the 49ers came out slow, losing 10-6 at halftime, but exploded with a 21-point third quarter to give the team a comfortable lead heading into the final quarter.

But, as the team has done on numerous occasions this year, the 49ers found themselves in a competitive game in the final moments, as Dallas sprung back with two touchdown drives in the fourth to put themselves within one score, even getting the ball back with 3:05 left with a chance to win the game.
