The 49ers’ hot start to the 2023 season continued Sunday when they knocked off the Cardinals 35-16 at Levi’s Stadium. They’re now 4-0 to start their quest of avenging a second-consecutive NFC championship game loss. San Francisco’s strong first four games has former Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan believing the team can make some history.
In an appearance with Kay Adams on her show, ‘Up & Adams,’ Lewan threw out the idea that the 49ers would not only beat the Cowboys in Week 5, but would actually win the rest of their games.

And then I’ll come on this show and be like ‘hey, we finally lost. Thank God, I can start to think logically.’ But I think the Niners right now, in my mind, they’re going 17-0.”
A 17-0 run by the 49ers would be pretty remarkable considering the daunting schedule they have ahead of them. Five of their remaining opponents are presently in the playoffs after four weeks. They also have a gauntlet late in the year where they go to Seattle on a short week, then visit the Eagles before heading home to face the Seahawks again.
They’ll certainly earn it if they wind up becoming the first team to win 17 regular-season games. There’s a long way to go until then though, and their first step is getting past the Cowboys at home in Week 5.
