NFL power rankings, Week 11: Steelers rise, Eagles fall

42. Somehow the 49ers stayed in their game against the Patriots, but ultimately lost their ninth-straight game of the season. Chip Kelly’s brilliant scheme has resulted in San Francisco being outscored by 109 points, second-worst only to Cleveland. Tom Brady lit up the worn out defense in the fourth quarter, leading his team to 17 points to seal the victory. Colin Kaepernick’s restructured contract appears to signal the end of the former franchise quarterback’s tenure out west. Who takes a chance on him, I don’t know. Perhaps Andy Reid tries to recreate him in Kansas City behind Alex Smith. <p>Next Week: Four of the 49ers last six games will be on the road, starting with Miami next weekend. Kelly will be scheming around his former players Kiko Alonso and Byron Maxwell, who played for him last season in Philadelphia. Look for Jay Ajayi to have a massive game against this 49ers defensive line, which has allowed 13 rushing touchdowns and averaged 180 rushing yards per game.</p> <p>Playoff hopes: With Cleveland being eliminated, the 49ers are next-up to be eliminated from the playoffs. Chip Kelly will have the opportunity to draft Deshaun Watson with the projected second-overall pick and build his offense around a quarterback who can extend plays from outside the pocket.</p>. 1-9.
