Rams vs 49ers

[RedAlice]

Both calls are going to be debated and no one is ever going to agree.

I have seen all the screen caps, all the arguments, and I believe both calls were correct. A Niner fan may think different

Fact is, the game was not decided on that drive.

I think we got screwed on the Crabtree catch, but at the same time you guys got screwed a good amount of times throughout the game. Overall it was a very poorly officiated game, one of the worst I seen this year.

Most certainly not the worst I have seen this year. Not even close.

I also don't believe either of our teams can blame refs for anything in this game. Both had some pretty weak play and many opps to own the game. This one is all on the play and the coaches, not the refs. For both teams.

I don't beleive it should've been this close - Rams had plenty of opps to get ahead that they did not capitilize on. Same for Niners.

This is like watching my two creepy uncles fight (one of which dates 16yo's...regardless of sex...and the other's a swinger).

:laugh:
pehawk for the win!!!!

I thought the officials were horrible and I am not even pinning the loss on them. Horrible o-line play was the reason, I believe, we lost. To me, the worst call of the day was when they called back that punt return TD the Rams should of had also Boger trying to explain it made it worse. By far I'd say him and his crew are the worst in the NFL.

Nice picture but Kap regained possession after that and lost the ball again I'm the pile.

yeah i thought the crabtree catch was a TD.. it definitely broke the plane.. atleast thats how ive always understood it.

 

[NINEster]

The benefit of the doubt you have to give to the refs with the Crabtree non TD is that with the Calvin Johnson one step/football move rule instituted a few years ago, it's hard to pin down with any authority what a catch is anymore.

I think that's a TD by 2010 rules.

So, all the Niner fans agree the refs were wrong.

Rams boards are bringing up this:

Guess there many disputed calls this game.


I still say nothing in this game was because of a ref call.

I agree Red this game was lost due to a very pathetic online and QB play on by niners. The rams deserve the win hands down that d line was impressive. Congrats. I remember back in the day my niners could never beat the la rams in candlestick but they seem to beat me on the road. This game was a defense dream the better team won today.

Is that why you are so irritating?

Kaepernick also claims he never called Lamarr Houston the N-Word. He is a proven liar.

:lol:

Ahhhh, a GREAT Monday morning.

Gratz Alice and Rams fans on the win. Niners didn't deserve it.

Not making an excuse as Niners got a big call in their favor on the Gore fumble, but I really need to know how that Crabtree catch wasn't a TD. Nearly the entire ball was over the goal line when he made the catch.

Not complaining...I'd honestly like an explanation that makes sense. It seems like the spent so much time looking whether he caught the ball that they didn't look at WHERE he initially caught the ball.

"Not complaining". Um, OK. (not that Hawks fans don't do the exact same thing, cuz we do)

 

[Hasselbeck]

We lost from a goal line fumble. The same team that beat SEA. Dont get too full of yourself. Its nice to win, enjoy it while it lasts, but once we get healthy, without a doubt we will make the wild card. Cardinals arent scaring anybody in the playoffs.

At the end of the year, your name still is still relevant.

It shouldn't have been ruled a catch to begin with. Crabtree never had control IMO.

Jerome Boger's crew is up there with Triplette's though on the pantheon of shit officiating.

Crabtree's catch wasn't a TD....not even close.

I guess if I was a Niner fan I would have wanted that call, but the only thing I thought they were reviewing was if it was a catch, and whether he got out of bounds. But he didn't possess the ball and complete the process of the catch until the ball was out of the end zone. I thought that was actually an easy call to make.

Now, I do believe there was an 85% chance that Kaepernick DID break the plane before fumbling. And I was just waiting for the refs to signal that it was a TD. When they gave the ball to us, and after seeing the replay, I realized that it was definitely not going to be overturned.

I don't really see how 49er fans could be upset with the refs in this game.....the punt return wasn't going to count, but the ref that called Austin out of bounds may not have known that.....so the refs took two TDs away from the Rams in this game.

For the record....

I'm upset with the officiating, but it didn't cost the 49ers the game. The game was horribly officiated from top to bottom and bad calls were made both ways.

Gore fumbled. Tavon Austin did NOT step out of bounds (tho that play was replayed anyway on offsetting penatlies).

As for the Crabtree and Kap plays at the end...I disagree. I think it was VERY close. IMO if the ref had called TD on either play they would have stood because the visual evidence wasn't there to overturn.

So...essentially...Niners were up a creek on both calls because there was no visual evidence to overturn once the initial call was made.

Again tho...refs were terrible all day with calls on both teams. No excuse. Niners sucked yesterday. O-Line play in particular was atrocious.

 

[pehawk]

Awesome now our NFL forum is 49ers AND Rams talk. I swear we have more people that are fans of their team than actually love or follow the game.

You want to know who I root for when the Rams and 49ers play? A terrorist attack.

yeah i thought the crabtree catch was a TD.. it definitely broke the plane.. atleast thats how ive always understood it.

I didn't think it was a catch - it looked like the tip of the ball touched the ground to help him secure possession. Hard to determine, I admit.

BUT, since the refs determined that it was indeed a catch, I think it should have been a TD. When Crabtree made the catch, the ball had broken the plane. 9ers got screwed on that one.

And then the fumble happened. It was inconclusive as to where Kap fumbled. He very well could have been in. What a gut-punch way to lose.

Game should never have been close and calls were bad both ways....but OUCH those two images below make it tough to swallow.
