Rams kept getting screwed over by the refs. "Screwed over" isn't quite the right word, since they technically DID commit the penalties that negated such beauties as an 80 yard completion and a successful 53 yard FG. Also, the refs were incompetent enough to realize that they needed to add 1:20 or so to the clock in the first half, and then never bother to notice that the time was never actually added on. It's the only tie I've ever seen, and it was...something.
Overall, this week left a sour taste in my mouth. Three starting QBs go out with concussions, a fairly crappy record for me, and the Chiefs are playing tonight. Hopefully at least Smith and Cutler come back by next week, or the hyped MNF matchup won't be anywhere near as fun. |
You mean they screwed themselves. The wide receiver needed to be on the line or the tackle needed to declare himself eligible. One or the other screwed up.
As for the delay of game on the FG attempt, I'm still not sure why Fisher didn't call a timeout with the clock running down. Each team gets 2 timeouts in OT, so you can chalk that one up to the HC.
49ers D was definitely shaky coming off that bye week, which is why they gave up 14 quick points, but after they played decently (barring that 80yd pass that came back).
Offense was very shaky after Smith went out. Kaepernick was completely missing wide receivers with his throws. To be expected from a second year player who basically comes in for wildcat running plays. He played better in the second half. In OT Akers missed a very makeable 41yd FG. He's not quite up to the Pro Bowl level he was last year. He's been used less often this year though.
With Smith back (hopefully), and the defense over their bye week jitters they should play much better next week. At he has an extra day to rest up since it's MNF.
