NFL team season
The 2016 San Francisco 49ers season was the franchise's 67th season in the National Football League , the 71st overall, the third playing its home games at Levi's Stadium , and the only season under head coach Chip Kelly . The season saw the 49ers attempting to rebound from their 5–11 record the previous year , but finished 2–14, with their only wins coming against their division rival Los Angeles Rams . The 49ers also nearly became the first team (and only the second since the AFL–NFL Merger in 1970) since the 2001 Carolina Panthers to win their opener and lose the remainder of their games, prior to the 49ers' Week 16 win over the Rams. The 49ers' record was their worst since 2004 , when they also finished 2–14 (both wins that season were against the Arizona Cardinals ). The 49ers' 1–7 home record tied the worst home record in franchise history (not including the strike-shortened 1982 season ). As a result, the 49ers fired Kelly and general manager Trent Baalke .[1]
The 49ers defense also set an NFL record by allowing a 100-yard rusher in seven straight games and easily finished last in the league in rush defense.
Offseason [ ] Coaching changes [ ] After the 2015 season ended, the 49ers fired Jim Tomsula as head coach .[2] Philadelphia Eagles and had been fired after a disappointing 7–9 Eagles season .[3]
