Super Bowl XLVII: San Francisco 49ers Vs Baltimore Ravens (Sunday, Feb. 3rd, 2013)

Random thoughts:

1. Good game. A game of two halves.

2. National Anthem-Whitney's is still the best.

3. Best ad-Paul Harvey's Farmer.

4. Remember where you heard this-Talk in NO about moving the SB to Sat. night in prime time. $$$$$$ is making this decision.

 

IMO Farmers ad went on WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too long...<ugh>

 

i'm glad you mentioned this because those 2 plays (in addition to some others where he wasn't working real hard to get open) really hurt the niners last night. that game could have gone either way and a starting WR dogging it on several plays can make all the difference.

and this is why i just said earlier this week that i would have rather had a 'much-less talented but much better football player' like Chris Carter or Hines Ward than Randy Moss any day of the week.

 

I agree on randy, no better than a number 3 at this point. And where did i say sf had no story lines? But show me one as compelling as rays retirement

 

There were missed calls on both sides like the hit on flacco out bounds that wouldve resulted in a 1st down and a good chance at more points.

I doubt god really wanted ray to win but he sure took the over cause the blackout made that possible.

 

YES PLEASE!!!

 

Congrats to Baltimore Ravens, Super Bowl Champions.

 

The refs missed a lot of calls and they also let them play. What about the Falcons player getting held no call that was missed. Your team lost in the first half not just this play. The int, fumble and the ravens TD kickoff, and the big 53 yard pass for a TD.

 

That was a clean hit, as was the time that bal was hit with a roughing call on us that shouldn't have been called. I just can't see how you could watch that and not think the officiating was terrible and had a big impact

 

oh crap i just re watched the game wearing some of these



boy did the niners get robbed by the refs lmao :icon_rolleyes:

 

I've seen that play several times, it was legal contact within 5 yards. Not calling ticky tack is one thing, letting blatant things go is another

 

well, i'm sure there are a LOT of niner fans that agreed with that non-call but are having a hissy fit about this non-call but i doubt ICECOLD is one of them. he's pretty objective.

 

mullet, the receiver RAN INTO the cornerback last night. it was incidental contact.

and just because the atlanta play was within 5 yards, it doesn't mean he was allowed to HOLD the receiver.

i wanted to wait to bring up this discussion until the hardcore homer niner fans had a few days to simmer down but the cat is out of the bag now.

if you have a problem with the play last night, then objectively you should also have a problem with the atlanta play.

 

Mullet that was not a clean hit on flacco. Not even close.


Face it .. that call at the end is like #7 on the list of top 10 reasons the niners lost the SB

 

Exactly. It was an outside pass yet the WR tried to go insid which means he screwed up the pattern or was trying get seperation.

 

the way harbaugh immediately started yelling at the refs and the fact that Kaep just heaved it up within a millisecond and the fact that crabtree didn't even look like he was interested in running the route after the initial contact, i personally think the actual play call from the sideline was to try and draw a flag because the niners wanted a fresh set of downs. crabtree just didn't sell it well enough and the refs weren't buying it.

 

Mullet would be a perfect Seahawks fan.

 

Some Niners fans just have to face the fact that kaepernick wont be kissing his arms on a float this year.
