Wow, that knee looked reallllllly bad. In addition, for that call to not be reviewable is just asinine. I’m going for Seattle, but that’s a bad call. ---

Holding into the ball during that was the most dedicated to the game shit ever. ---

My god this is going to haunt some 49ers fans sort of like the drive/the fumble. ---

We’ve gone from great defensive play to offensive ineptitude. Kaepernick’s fumble, Lynch/Wilson’s fumble, and Bowman’s strip have me thinking that neither of these teams is ready for the Super Bowl. Although we’re now in crunch time, so let’s see what they can do. ---

Joe Buck is a dumbass. His call “the SF defense comes up with a huge stop on 4th down.” Really, cause it sure looked to me like Wilson and Lynch just totally fubar’d the hand-off without a defensive player with 5 yards. :smack: ---

Good. We’ll take back at the 9. Fine with me. ---

As an avowed Kaepernick disliker, I sure liked his last few possessions. ---

Colin K got a little too in love with his arm strength there. That was a HORRIBLE decision. ---

Golden Tate does an awful lot of posing for being a non factor for huge parts of the game. ---

Kaepernick’s fumble, Lynch/Wilson’s fumble, and Bowman’s strip have me thinking that neither of these teams is ready for the Super Bowl. Although we’re now in crunch time, so let’s see what they can do. Well, what they did was Kaepernick throws an interception, Wilson misses a guy by a mile, has to burn a timeout, and now fumbles the snap. _Ugh_ ---

Did I miss something? How did it become the 49ers ball after the lynch fumble? I thought Seattle recovered. ---
