The 2025 NFL schedule is notably favorable for the San Francisco 49ers, as they face no opponents coming off a bye week, unlike the previous season where they contended with four such teams. This advantage, combined with an easier schedule featuring teams that finished last in their divisions, positions the 49ers as favorites in many matchups. The season kicks off with a crucial game against the Seattle Seahawks, and throughout the season, the 49ers will benefit from several rest advantages, particularly against teams like the Tennessee Titans and Carolina Panthers.
