The San Francisco 49ers hit the road again in Week 8 for an interconference battle with the Houston Texans on Sunday at NRG Stadium, and Kyle Shanahan’s fell 26-15, dropping from a three-way tie for first place in the NFC West to third.
San Francisco really struggled to do anything that they wanted to on offense or defense in this game, looking overmatched on both sides of the ball.
