I would add this is back to back West Coast to East (3.5 to 4 hour flight) for 49ers as well.
Teams who played back to back road game did not fare well the second week in the past.
I checked that out and they've actually done it 3 times recently. 2011, 2013 and 2014 (all under Harbaugh)--back to back road wins East of the Mississippi. They had better teams then, but like you said, it is hard to do.
In the Pete Carroll era, Seattle has failed to do it in several attempts and 2018 Rams failed to do it last year.
The Chargers haven't done it since 2011 (that's as far back as i went).
So the 49ers are an outlier and they did it with one coach who is long gone.
