One of them resulted in a crucial goal-line stop by the Cardinals' defense.
Other notable fourth-down opportunities consisted of a failed sneak from fullback Kyle Juszczyk and a pass tipped at the line of scrimmage on a late fourth quarter drive that would have given San Francisco an opportunity to tie the game.
Failing to score more than 10 points in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, the 49ers' offense was neutralized by four failed conversions, oftentimes in Arizona territory.
