		<description><![CDATA[He has a point. The Ravens were holding on with all they had even if it meant exploiting the rules. The last 3 plays flags should have been given flags. Crabtree hit in the back well before the ball arrived 2nd down.  Helmet to Helmet contact on the next and the holding on the next play.  If you pause the replay when the pass is thrown he is 1yard short of goalline and defender still has his shirt in his hand in the endzone.  His momentum is slowed at this moment and there is a good chance he could catch the pass. It doesn&#039;t matter about any other plays or whether the pass was more accurate. It is the rules.  It wasn&#039;t like they were awarding the SB to niners as their would have been time for Ravens to have their own drive if niners scored.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The refs blew multiple calls and that without QUESTION changed the outcome of the game.

That 4th down play had 2 holds, the Crabtree hold AND the hold on Walker.

Then on the safety, there were multiple holds that never got called which left the Niners with 10 less seconds than they should have had after the punt.

Why they chose to repeatedly turn the blind eye questions the integrity of the refs, and NFL for refusing to address these blatent no calls which basically detrmined the winner and loser.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That was defensive holding in my opinion, but the refs kept the flags in their pocket and I don&#039;t have a problem with it.  That&#039;s football.  The refs blew the call when Smith was pass interfered in the first half by the 49er&#039;s.  The ref&#039;s blew the call by not calling holding on the Jone&#039;s kickoff TD.  The refs blew the call on Roughing the passer when Joe Flacco was hit out of bounds.  There where several questionable late hits on Kap that the refs could have thrown a flag.  It was obvious that Kap had given the ball to the RB in the mesh and he did not have the ball.  A blown call that allowed the 49er&#039;s to score a touchdown that nobody is talking about the play that Ngata was injured on.  The Niners offensive linemen did try to injure him and they succedded. This is a nasty high-low weakside trench warfare technique. #74 of the 49er’s was engaged with Ngata uphigh and #76 of the 49er’s dove blocked down to the weakside to seal for the pulling guard. As #76 did this he dove down at the ground towards the defensive linemen’s knees and he connected with Ngata’s knee who was being blocked up high by #74, sending Ngata out of the game. Watch the play on NFL.com’s highlights. Tell me I’m wrong. Did the 49er’s fans who complained about the officials demand that a 15 yard penalty for chop blocking be enforced on that play and the 49er’s touchdown taken off of the scoreboard? Not to mention the bear hug holding applied to Suggs by the pulling guard #77 on the same play that allowed Gore to get to the edge and break contain and not have to cut it back upfield where Ed Reed and Ray Lewis were. The rules state that you are not allowed to grab and hold outside of the numbers as #77 did grabbing both shoulders of the DE and turning him. Do you hear any 49er’s fans demanding that the rule be applied and a 10 yard holding penalty called and the 49er’s touchdown taken off of the boards. One play. Two very obvious penalties. Those of us who played in the trenches know that there should have been a penalty called, but we are fine if it was not. The whiners who complain about flags aren’t knowledgable enough about football to understand the trenches. They only focus on the pretty boy penalties. The refs kept the flags in their pocket on that play and allowed the 49er’s to score a TD. And guess what. That is football and I don’t have a problem with it. You don’t hear Ngata whining about a play that the 49er&#039;s scored a TD on and that could have altered his health and career drastically. There a probably many more blown calls, but I think it is good for football when only 7 penalities are called and the players determine the game (20 yards of penalties for the Ravens and 33 yards of penalties for the 49er&#039;s).  Why do you whiners have a problem with it?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This happens regularly in the Super Bowl yet we see nothing done about it. Not a 9ers fan but I agree it should have been at least &quot;illegal contact&quot; downfield. PI could not be determined because the ball landed 2-3 yards or so out of bounds, but once they crossed the end zone line contact should have ceased and Crabtree was definitely held. So, holding or illegal contact, take your pic. Doesn&#039;t mean they would have scored, just would have had more chances.

BUT ... without the extended delay and a virtual &quot;game reset&quot; which destroyed the Ravens momentum, there wouldn&#039;t have been a comeback in the first place. They still gave up more points than they scored and had plenty more opportunities to do so and messed them up so, they can blame no one but themselves for the final outcome. There are always lots of plays that change the game. You have to make them or be one the positive side in order to win. Just the way it goes. But the better team still won.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Kinda sick of hearing about this. Check out the final Atlanta play of the 49&#039;ers vs. Falcons game (NFC Championship). 49&#039;ers grazed the Atlanta receiver a bit more than on the Baltimore play in the super bowl, no flag thrown. Refs let them play there too. So, the same exact situation put the 49&#039;ers IN the Super Bowl. Now they&#039;re crying when they&#039;re on the opposite end of the situation... 49&#039;ers need to be better sports. Especially the head coach.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First off I am no Niners fan. I am a sports fan though and am tired of hearing all of the whining about the no-call at the end. That ONE play in itself did NOT cost the Niners the game. How did they fall behind 28-6? Poor defensive execution. Poor offensive execution. A poor job of coaching. Poor special teams. Were there blown calls on BOTH sides? Plenty. Just like ANY NFL game or other sports for that damn matter. The Niners blew the game in the 1st half. PERIOD. I know it is a tough loss for Niners fans and some fans in general. Bad calls happen but ONE call does not cost you the game. How about having to blow that 1st TO in the 2nd half Jim? There were so many bad calls BOTH ways it was ridiculous. Be a man and admit that your brother out coached you and your team got OUTPLAYED. When the power outage happened I told those around me the Niners would make it close because it stopped the Ravens momentum. Bad calls are a part of the game but the Niners BLEW their chances in the 1st half. Had the Ravens ACTUALLY made adjustments after the outage I have no doubt they would have blown it WIDE open.

		<description><![CDATA[Ok so after watching the guys on espn first take hash out the no call on Crabtree at the end of the game I have come to this theory. 
1. Crabtree grabbed the DB at the goal line to make it look like it was going to be a run and suckers the DB to hold him as he lets go. You know how WR&#039;s grab the jersey on a run play.
2. He then tries to let go and tries to get to the back corner to make the catch. 

Now, 2 things can happen. Either he gets the holding call and catches the ball and they decline the penalty, or he gets the holding call and doesn&#039;t get the catch. They take the penalty and try again with 4 more downs.  Seems like a smart tactic that Jim taught Crabtree just for an instance like this. Some proof could be how quick Jim was to make the holding signal and jump up and down like he did.  He set that all up. He knew it was coming. There is hardly ever holding called there, it would be called PI.  It happened so fast he would not know if it was holding or PI. yet he chose to display the holding signal a ref would make. 

Now, John said after the game that Jim was the smartest and best coach in the world or whatever. What if John had seen the SF receivers do this prior to the Superbowl and happened to remind the refs about this.  The refs let them play and that&#039;s that!

Then, on the punt where the safety happens. There was holding all over that play, which doesn&#039;t matter because holding in the end zone would result in a safety. Which is what happened anyway. Can&#039;t put time back on the clock though, it&#039;s not a false start or something like that. Allows Ravens to run a ton of time off the clock and essentially give the 9ers no shot to win. 

Now tell me who&#039;s the smarter coach.]]></description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ok so after watching the guys on espn first take hash out the no call on Crabtree at the end of the game I have come to this theory.<br />
1. Crabtree grabbed the DB at the goal line to make it look like it was going to be a run and suckers the DB to hold him as he lets go. You know how WR&#8217;s grab the jersey on a run play.<br />
2. He then tries to let go and tries to get to the back corner to make the catch. </p>
<p>Now, 2 things can happen. Either he gets the holding call and catches the ball and they decline the penalty, or he gets the holding call and doesn&#8217;t get the catch. They take the penalty and try again with 4 more downs.  Seems like a smart tactic that Jim taught Crabtree just for an instance like this. Some proof could be how quick Jim was to make the holding signal and jump up and down like he did.  He set that all up. He knew it was coming. There is hardly ever holding called there, it would be called PI.  It happened so fast he would not know if it was holding or PI. yet he chose to display the holding signal a ref would make. </p>
<p>Now, John said after the game that Jim was the smartest and best coach in the world or whatever. What if John had seen the SF receivers do this prior to the Superbowl and happened to remind the refs about this.  The refs let them play and that&#8217;s that!</p>
<p>Then, on the punt where the safety happens. There was holding all over that play, which doesn&#8217;t matter because holding in the end zone would result in a safety. Which is what happened anyway. Can&#8217;t put time back on the clock though, it&#8217;s not a false start or something like that. Allows Ravens to run a ton of time off the clock and essentially give the 9ers no shot to win. </p>
<p>Now tell me who&#8217;s the smarter coach.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[I really don&#039;t care if Jim throws his clipboard.  I am glad he is as passionate about the game as many fans are.  However, with the help of CBS, he and many SF fans think that EVERY call must go there way.  They don&#039;t see the phantom running into the kicker that gave SF 3 points and would have turned the mo back to the ravens.  They don&#039;t see the hit out of bounds on the QB. They don&#039;t see the arm bar interference on Torrey Smith all night.  They don&#039;t see the holding by the SF O line.  They only see a Ravens defender falling to the ground, but supposedly he was holding and was not pushed.  

Please Open both eyes!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[9ers got caught napping on the safety.  Even with the holding - the punter ran around for 8 seconds.  The Ravens were not holding all 11 defensive players.  Even with holding calls, it ends up the same; a safety and 4 seconds on the clock.  It looked like the 9ers never even considered the possibility of an intentional safety.  Aren&#039;t coaches supposed to think of things like that?  Obviously, John did and Jim did not.  

Jim&#039;s phoney outrage over the no call on Crabtree is just to divert attention from his  failure in play selection.  The no call was right.  If the ball had been catchable the Ravens safety coming over the top would have caught it, not Crabtree.]]></description>

As a 49ers fan I&#039;ll take the good with the bad.  49ers will be back stronger next year.  Kaepernick is the real deal.   Congrats to the Raven&#039;s,   been knockin on the door and finally busted it down.   49ers please get some safeties that have ball awareness.]]></description>

&quot;Now I’m sure if it was your team that got cheated you would be speaking up....&quot;

No I wouldn&#039;t.  You see the whole game?  Missed calls both ways. It was pretty even. In case you didn&#039;t see, here&#039;s a few: Flacco late hit clearly out of bounds (penalty is an automatic first down, delays FG, maybe turns into a TD),  Torrey Smith hand checked 15 yards down field in 1st quarter incompletion (Very clear) Suggs held around his chest on Gore TD run (bear hugged actually).

The reason you don&#039;t whine after the game is any good fan of the game knows these calls go both ways. Especially over the course of a game and season.

I have had my team not get favorable calls and I have come in these rooms and been gracious. No one play makes a game. And teams need to overcome adversity...fumbles, INTs, bad calls, injuries, etc...you name it.

Have some dignity to know you control your own destiny. Blaming the zebra&#039;s just makes you a victim. Is that what you want to be?]]></description>

What also looked like a classless postgame shake in the middle of the field with his own brother....looked like he pushed him away with a crap comment there too...something about &quot;dad&quot;. Can&#039;t wait til that sound byte starts getting some air play.

At least Chan was classy. not like the whinny Harbaugh sisters. I wonder what the league thinks of them watching them act like their dog has been shot every time something happens against them. I for one now an routing against the 49ers from here on out. I am sure they don&#039;t care because they are winning now. But it won&#039;t last as long as they think it will.  Hey Jim, don&#039;t fall behind so big early and if anything the 49ers only chance came when the lights went out. Don&#039;t hear you complaining about that big momentum swing do you.
