With just two games left to play, San Fran is on pace to allow a whopping 496 points this season, which would be the fourth-most of any team in history. They will get a good chance to slow that pace during a Week 16 rematch with the Los Angeles Rams, a squad they blanked in Week 1 for their only win of this season. Not only was it the Niners' lone victory, but it was also their only time holding an opponent below 23 points.
