Flaccid? Miners? I think I’ll be turning off my spell checker on my phone. ---

Horrible pass by Kaepernick. ---

Jeez Niners, you’re giving it away! Of course, playing and winning from behind is their MO, so I guess we will see. Another Ratbird TD here is pretty bad for them though. ---

No idea why Williams was not ejected. ---

> [@Laggard](#): > > No idea why Williams was not ejected. Do you really want to eject a player in the Super Bowl if you’re the ref? ---

The fake kick was a weird call, but not for the obvious reasons. What if Tucker gets injured in the play? ---

If the Niners can manage to go into halftime only down 14-3 after getting outplayed so thoroughly, that’ll be a small victory itself. ---

Well so much for that. But yeah, there has been some ugly play… ---

What unholy ritual have the Ravens worked that caused safeties to forget how to play football? ---

Well, if the Niners’ plan was to make the Ravens overconfident, they’re doing a good job. Even if I didn’t live in Baltimore I’d enjoy this just to hear the Raven haters whine. ---

If the Niners can score here, then get a stop after 1/2 time, this could still be a game. ---

San Francisco definitely has the ability to come back from a 15 point halftime deficit…but they need to start playing just a little bit of defense first. Halftime at the Super Bowl is probably half an hour or so, if memory serves.
