Might have been a fumble, but can you call a clear recovery 15 yards away and 3 seconds later?
Yes, but he swatted it fwd by ~ 10 yards. With the 3 and out, they were well out of FG range. And, as luck would have it, Philly's punt resulted in a touchback. Negative play erased!!That’s a fumble.
Felt like a home run shot they wanted to take as part of the game plan to put the defensive backfield on their heels.Not a play call the Niners should call. Slow developing play that counts on a backup TE blocking their best pass rusher.
Absolutely! When the receiver got u that quickly you knew something was up.Stupid by 49ers not to review that.
Meh. With the officials position you can't expect to make that call. Hopefully expanded replay will get that called right in the future. Until then, it's up to the team to challenge.
