[QUOTE="nopantsyet, post: 578616, member: 3109"] Turned on the Giants/49ers game right as the 49ers scored their first comeback touchdown. Not having seen the first half of the game, my response was that the Giants were playing stupid ball. God knows plays get blown and touchdown passes get dropped. Heck, I'm a New England/Red Sox fan--I know all about blown games. :) The FG doesn't even warrant comment, but the string of personal fouls (on both teams) was ridiculous. If Williams hadn't played into Owens three times (!) that's 45 yards more the 49ers would have had to move the ball. in a 1000+ yard game, that's significant. But--and I think here's where the real loss was--the 49ers had them beat from the first comeback touchdown. For whatever reason they were so clearly broken down psychologically. It wasn't until the final missed conversion that I thought they might pull it together. And the Saturday games were disappointing more because they were just not good games. I was glad to see the Jets playing as strong a game as they did against NE to at least console our (stupid ball) loss. [/QUOTE]
