The thing is, defense didn't win that game. Vernon Davis played like men among boys. The 4th Q turned into the TEs show. |
Bad defense allowed that. Don't know why they were blitzing and playing man-to-man. Really bad decisions by the Greg Williams. Guess they were going for broke. Surprised, usually they play zone/prevent. 49ers D and special teams did there job with those turnovers. The last one by Sproles was bad though. He wasn't stripped or hit hard, it just seem like he lost the grip on the ball. 5 turnovers, horrible game by the Saints. A lot contact allowed by the refs for the 49er defensive backs. Probably has to do with that defensive rep they built this year, and of course home field advantage.
Too bad about the Broncos as well, would have been entertaining to see them go far. Very few gave them a chance against the Steelers, they already did more than most expected.
Good games tomorrow as well, Baltimore should take it. Giants and Packers should be entertaining; think the Gmen can come away with it.
