Whoa, a win: 49ers end skid with victory over Giants

Sorry, 2008 Lions, the 2017 49ers won't be joining your infamous and lonely club this season. On Sunday, the 49ers accomplished something they last managed Christmas Eve, a mere 325 days earlier, by winning a game. San Francisco's 31-21 victory over the Giants at Levi's Stadium improved its record to 1-9 and ensured it wouldn't join those Lions as a second franchise to have an 0-16 season. How did the 49ers' first home win since Sept. 12, 2016, feel? After reporters entered the postgame locker room, they witnessed a huge dark area on the carpet where players had dumped a bucket of water on Kyle Shanahan and boogied around him to celebrate his first victory as a head coach.
