San Francisco 49ers Schedule 2022: Opponents, Dates, Times, TV Streams and Final Record Predictions
Last season, the San Francisco 49ers were one field goal from making it to the Super Bowl for the second time in three years. The Niners made mistakes against their division rivals in the fourth quarter of the NFC Championship game after leading the Rams by two touchdowns. In the fourth period, San Francisco gave up 13 straight points to Los Angeles and lost 20-17.
The 49ers still have one significant obstacle to overcome going into the season, even with Jimmy Garoppolo still on the roster and 2021 first-round selection Trey Lance likely prepared to take over. The Niners should still be a good chance to play important games through December, and maybe long beyond that, even with the unresolved internal mess.
However, given that their schedule is among the toughest in the NFL this season, it won’t be too simple. San Francisco will need to defeat the following opponents in order to return to the postseason.

San Francisco 49ers final record prediction
With a.533 opponent winning percentage from the previous season, the 49ers’ schedule for the 2022 campaign is among the toughest in the league. With the Seahawks in turmoil and the Cardinals an enigma following a strong start to the 2021 season, the NFC West may not be as difficult a chore as it has been in the past.
However, the Rams are still the best team in the division and have just won the Super Bowl. The 49ers’ future at quarterback will determine whether they succeed or fail as a club. We predict the 49ers to finish the season 12-5.
