We knew after Week 17 that San Francisco would have four East Coast trips. One of their missions east will include back-to-back showdowns with the New York clubs. The 49ers had two separate instances last season where they played back-to-back games in Eastern Time, and they stayed in that time zone on both occasions. There’s an overwhelming likelihood they’ll do the same thing this year between the Jets and Giants games. It’s worth noting the 49ers were 2-0 and averaged 44.5 points per game in those contests.
