Because of holding on Jermaine Kearse.

I've seen that kind of holding a lot by our receivers, 2 hands grabbing the jersey outside of the shoulders. Surprised it was never called before.

I'm wouldn't be surprised if Arians noticed that too and talked to the referees before the game, "hey, Seattle keeps getting away with their receivers holding on running plays."

I hope they coach that out of them because that would have put the game even further out of reach. 26-3 instead of 19 - 3.

Need to get the field goal kick up higher too. If not for the hold and the blocked field goal from a low kick, it could have been as high as 29-3 final score.

No difference in standings, just food for thought. :D

If we can clean up these miscues, our chances of winning out increase dramatically. Right now we are averaging a very low ppg which is hard to win with.

Nothing for standings, but 6 points for my fantasy team. :D

Which is reason enough!

I guess now is time to point out that officially Russ was ruled to have stepped out at the 9. Or so it says on my all-22 play list.

And they marched the penalty back from that spot.

Damn, I was hoping he'd get the Harvin treatment on that one.

Roger that.

But the point being, the receivers holding on their blocks. This really needs to be cleaned up as you know Harbaugh is already in the referees ear about that.

TD's (strength of victory) is one of the tie-breakers, but things would have to get really tight for it to mean something.

If it was so important, why did we take a knee at the end of the game?
