However, that win came after a bye week.
Every other team has lost the week after playing San Francisco. NFL teams are 0-15 this season in that scenario. The 49ers would like to think the reason is they've had a lasting impact on their opponents.
"It could be a coincidence, but we like to think not, so we'll take it that way," head coach Kyle Shanahan said of the record in December.
San Francisco becomes the first team to watch its opponents go winless in the week immediately following matchups.
"I guess we're beating them up good," linebacker Fred Warner said of the streak.
Below is a list of the results of teams in the week following a game against the 49ers:
- Week 2: Bears, L at Packers, 27-10
- Week 3: Seahawks, L vs. Falcons, 27-23
- Week 4: Broncos, L at Raiders, 32-23
