Team Grades: 49ers Get Walloped In Pittsburgh On Both Sides Of The Ball
So much for the nice Week 1 win for the San Francisco 49ers. It took just one road trip to knock the team back down to earth. The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the 49ers, 43-18, in a game that wasn't even that close. San Francisco didn't score a touchdown until the fourth quarter when the game was already out of hand, and defensively, the team gave up four TDs in the first half to fall behind, 29-3. Yes, it was that kind of day for the 49ers, and it raises a lot of questions for Week 3.
