The 49ers are at a scheduling disadvantage, but not in Week 1

Both teams playing in Mexico City got hit with this unfortunate schedule setup. As we mentioned at the top, the 49ers have to head to Mexico City in Week 11 before returning to the Bay Area to face the Seahawks in Week 12. Seattle will be coming off a Week 11 bye before that game.

In Minnesota’s case, the Vikings will face the Falcons in Week 12, and Atlanta will be coming off a Week 11 bye.
