Both the 49ers (3-3) and the Patriots (2-3) are on the outside looking in at the playoff picture, a year after both teams won their respective divisions. New England hasn't missed the playoffs in over a decade, and they haven't had a losing record in 20 years. The 49ers don't have the same recent history of sustained excellence, but they entered the season with Super Bowl Or Bust expectations after losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV.
