Another collapse sends reeling 49ers to 12th straight loss
SANTA CLARA, Calif. — With two touchdowns in the first five minutes against the reeling New York Jets, the San Francisco 49ers looked poised to finally get their first win since the season opener.
Then for the rest of the game, they became the same old Niners and extended their franchise-record losing streak to 12 games.
Bilal Powell scored on a 19-yard run after New York stopped Carlos Hyde on fourth-and-short to open overtime and the Jets dealt the 49ers perhaps their most disheartening loss of a lost season with a 23-17 victory on Sunday.
