SANTA CLARA, Calif.—Christian McCaffrey ran for the go-ahead touchdown with 7:54 to play, and the San Francisco 49ers beat the Los Angeles Chargers 22–16 Sunday night, Nov. 13, in their first game back from a bye week.
The Niners (5–4) returned from the midseason break as healthy as they’ve been all season on offense and with hopes of making a second-half run. Their performance against the short-handed Chargers (5–4) was a slog at times but proved to be just enough to come out on top.
