According to Josh Dubow of the Associated Press, the 49ers had failed on 50 consecutive third-and-16-plus situations before that final drive.
I don't know about 50.
But this version counts it as third and 15 or more yards. Cause if you think of it, probably no team has ever been in 3rd and
16 50 times.

The #49ers converted two 3rd down attempts of 15+ yards on their game-winning drive. It’s only the second time in the last 40 seasons that a team converted multiple 3rd or 4th down attempts of 15+ yards on a game-winning drive, per @EliasSports
The other team: The Cleveland Browns on Nov. 4, 1984.
Before converting the two third-and-16s on the game-winning drive, the #49ers were 0-for-20 on the year on third and 15 or more yards.
