On the 51 yard run by CMC in the first half, that was all on Durant, unfortunately. Cobie had a wide open shot, went low to cut his legs out, and completely whiffed. Cobie can make great plays, but that one was... not.
Durant is a POOR TACKLER!! He has worked hard at it though,but that will always be a problem.
Good thing is for the most part is a willing tackler & has gotten better since last season.
That late first half TD was a KILLER!!! That intentional grounding penalty hurt.He was still in/out side the pocket ?
—Frustrating because no intent,plus on that flag that got picked up that Stafford wasn’t outside the pocket ? Either way both calls/non calls sucked.I guess they were ? To me confusing & is what it is. A learning experience.
The NINER’s LBers really picked up there intensity level to close out the game.The Rams defense gave The Rams a chance to comeback.
Mistakes & Chit happens during a game.The Higbee call (holding)was a tough one because Nick Bosa was holding Higbee as well & made it tough for him to release because of leverage & wouldn’t have been able to run his route if he let go.In fact the Nick Bosa holding caused Higbee not to get out in time if there was no holding at all by either player.
THE PLAY CALL was there,but give credit to them.
The Ronnie Rivers /Hopkins call was a Big Game changer!!
Anchrum is way better than Bobby Brown was last season,but has to keep his head up & try to pick up the Blitz for that first sack of 2023 The OLine gave up.
