The San Francisco 49ers are currently on their third starting quarterback of the 2022 NFL season.
In conditions like these, it’s traditionally challenging to keep an offense clicking when the quarterback situation seems like a revolving door.
With a team as well-rounded as the 49ers, however, they have been able to power through injuries and continue to win games.
With tonight’s win over the #Seahawks, the #49ers have won the NFC West. They’ve clinched a playoff spot.

After their win over the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday Night Football last night, the 49ers became the second team to clinch a playoff spot, second to the Philadelphia Eagles.
With this victory, the 49ers reached ten wins for the third time in the past four seasons.
Looking Ahead For the 49ers
The 49ers have won seven straight games, and hold the longest active win streak in the NFL.
They are peaking at the right time and will be a dangerous team in the postseason.
To finish their 2022 regular season campaign, the 49ers will play the Washington Commanders, Las Vegas Raiders, and Arizona Cardinals.
Those three teams have a combined record of 16-22-1, leaving the door wide open for the 49ers to win the rest of their games.
Although it will be nearly impossible for them to surpass the Eagles as the NFC’s number one overall seed, the 49ers are playing some of their best football now.
They have the best defense in the league, and with their new quarterback Brock Purdy, they have a fighting chance to beat any team that comes their way.
Will the 49ers hoist the Lombardi when all is said and done?
