NFL Power Rankings: Looking at All 32 Teams Entering Week 15
By Peter Panacy
The 49ers coughed up a 14-point lead for the third time this season, falling to the scuffling New York Jets 23-17 in overtime.
As has been the case almost all season, the Niners second-half woes surfaced in glaring light. San Francisco’s defense let second-year quarterback Bryce Petty engineer a Jets comeback, and 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick simply collapsed in response.
Kap’s four-week stretch of better-than-average play seems like a distant memory now.
CBS Sports’ Jason La Canfora reported general manager Trent Baalke could be ousted after this season is through, which puts head coach Chip Kelly into a precarious position as well.
Baalke’s possible departure might be the only thing San Francisco fans have to look forward to this offseason.
That, and a high pick in the 2017 NFL Draft.
