NFL Week One is in the books. Now, it's time to look forward to Week Two.
The New Orleans Saints survived its NFC Championship rematch with the Minnesota Vikings, and the San Francisco 49ers got thumped by the Seattle Seahawks.
The Saints played an ugly game but at least they didn't lose like Dallas, Indianapolis, San Diego, and Atlanta.
San Francisco, on the other hand, played an ugly game and there were no redeeming qualities about it.

The 49ers are looking to break that streak and avoid digging themselves a 0-2 hole.
