Go Niners!!!!!

@Shoreman:

Should that have been a touchdown, though? He appeared to have clear possession of the ball…

from how i had understood the new-ish rules was that it needs to be like 2 or 3 steps or actions after catch. and he only planted and took one additional step. whatever. too late now

But that sort of runs conflict with the rule that only requires you to simply cross the plane with the ball in order for it to count as a score.

@Finn666:

Is there any chance for us European to watch this game online?
Maybe someone got a link to share?!

Rule is different for receivers catching the ball.  They must demonstrate complete control throughout the catch.

I'm glad it's close but Niners are lucky to be within 3. 73 of 79 pass yards on one play

in regard to the touchdown question the player has to have the ball in his possession & under his control after it breaks the plane.  so the ball bouncing around in your hands doesn't count as a touchdown unless the player can gain control of the ball.

my stomach is a mess but i am happy with the 3rd down conversions & the way the Giants have been able to control the ball & play their kind of football.  far from over if we can keep this up for the 3rd & 4th . . . .

Ray Finkle? Look for him to be in a mental institution rather than a Ravens uniform next year!

[madmonday]

I HATE VERON DAVIS.

great catch

[madmonday]

fingers sooooooo crossed right now.

where are they spotting the ball?

[madmonday]

tails is the call.  OVERTIME

[jacoavlu]

[madmonday]

it's like they know what is hanging in the balance.  epic stuff

[madmonday]

i don't think i can watch anymore.  tell me what happens 

[jacoavlu]

how's the hennessy tasting tonight?

[madmonday]

can't drink brown juice during the day or when i have stuff still to do, i get all crazy.  my wife uses it for baking, long story short she uses it to paint on cakes & stuff.

had a few heineikens & a few coronas so really i'm not drinking 

[deadendpro]

so now that both teams have had possession, does that mean first fg will win it?
