31. San Francisco 49ers 1-8 (31)

When considering nobody was really giving them much of a shot on the road against the Arizona Cardinals, the San Francisco 49ers have to be kicking themselves for falling just short of what would have turned out to be quite the upset win. Instead, the team continues to search for their first win since opening weekend as the 49ers have now lost eight games in a row.

As mentioned numerous times over the last couple of weeks, there’s only so much Colin Kaepernick can do on his own with this terrible offense as the quarterback led the team in passing and rushing once again. Unless someone else decides to step it up on offense to help Kaepernick out, the 49ers most likely won’t see that losing streak come to an end any time soon.

Chip Kelly knew he was taking over a terrible team when he joined San Francisco in the offseason, but not even the head coach could have predicted things would be this bad in 2016. And if the last eight games wasn’t already frustrating enough for the 49ers, chances are high that streak is going to increase to nine with a game against the New England Patriots scheduled for next Sunday.

With all due respect to Kelly and his team, there’s no chance San Francisco is going to find a way to win that one.
