49ers get the long TD pass, XP takes the lead to 9, so that one is over. Less than 22 minutes of game time left

The Pats are legitimately the only team I see get called for intentional grounding. Goff had one that should have been called earlier too. It's to the degree I don't even know what a rule is that I was sure I knew ten years ago.

I don't even get the point of the rule to be honest. Just seems so arbitrary and even more arbitrarily enforced.

In this league this year I have no idea how Clay Matthews wasn’t flagged for nearly ripping Goff’s head off.

Wow, San Francisco with a timeout, somehow has time expire on an incompletion, so they lose without even trying the 61 yard FG

Take the ball out of the endzone to lose the two minute warning and you fumble and lose the game, lol.

That was an ugly ending. The center hiked the ball over Beathard’s head, so all he could do after recovering the ball was attempt a desperation heave.
Ah, thanks. I had on the other game and couldn't figure out how they burned 7 seconds on an incompletion

Wow, Todd Gurley has a legit shot at breaking the single season NFL touchdown record this year, and he took one for the team and took a knee instead of going into the end zone. Well done Todd. Impressive stuff.

Gurley should have gone down sooner (or gone OOB), a Packers player did try to rip it out.
