Gore took himself out didn't he? James got the carry on 1st down. Gore did that a lot, gets tired too easy I guess.
The play that screwed the 9ers was the timeout on 3rd down when Kaepernick almost let the delay of game happen. That run (Kaepernick) looked like it was gonna score. Gotta get that snap off. Or take the penalty and don't waste the timeout. I said to my buddy when Gore went out of bounds at the five that the 9ers were in trouble because everyone has trouble punching it in on the Ravens. The extra 5 yards of room would have helped open windows for Kaepernick in the passing game. And if you don't get it, you gave an extra 45 seconds to try and score again and maybe the Ravens don't take the safety. Anyway, down the stretch, big brother definitely showed little bro he still had a few things to learn.

Even though the Niners lost that QB is lethal.
Right now I'd take him over any other QB that is new to the league and I might take him over any QB regardless.
He made a couple of rookie mistakes last night, but the play calling on the final drive at the goal was pretty shitty. He was going to run when Harbaugh called the timeout and I bet it cost them a touchdown.

You can't assume that because of how much time he was held up.

Now, I hate both teams, so I don't give a shit. But, if I was a 9er fan, I'm pretty sure I'd be bitching like crazy about the refs today. Not throwing out (or even penalizing) the DB who two-handed shoved the ref during the post-fumble fight? Not calling Ed Reed offsides on the 2-point conversion (which may have been a bigger no-call than the 4th down pass)? Not calling offensive PI on Torrey Smith when he wrapped both hands around Culliver's helmet on what would have been a pick?
As a non-biased observer, I thought this was almost as one-sided as far as calls go as the Pittsburgh-Seattle Super Bowl. Hell, even the one call I thought the 9ers got (I thought Akers flopped before contact on the missed field goal) should have been roughing and a 1st down for the 9ers by virture of the rule (contact with leg in the air) if they throw the flag at all.
Of course, watching JimHarbaugh whine about it was fantastic.
They didn't call any chippy shit the entire 1st half.. I saw after the play smacks to the helmet that would have been called regular season. They let things go thus, the minor "fight" happened. The refs were pretty sad but hey, they let it get to where it got. Then they found Ray Lewis, er, Jesus.

Looking at the replay, he definitely grabbed Crabtree's shoulder pads under his arm. Basically an underarm horse collar. Much more egregious than a simple or even aggressive chuck or forearm shiver right off the line, which I could see not calling in that situation, but a straight up holding, I think you have to call that...
Also, look at the end of that clip, Smith looks like he's calling for the refs to throw a flag on Crabtree after he (Smith) fell down...

Even ignoring the fact that the ball ended up about a yard from his hands as it went by, can someone really tell me that a throw that lands on the white (look at the gif) was "uncatchable unless you were out of bounds?" I guess Kaepernick must have thrown it straight up in the airand it must have been coming straight down for it to be clearly uncatchable out of bounds and yet land only like a yard and a half at most beyond the edge of the sideline.

Catchable also doesnt matter for defensive holding. That should be called holding even if the ball is thrown to the other side of the field.
Also, in the end zone on the punt, holding didnt matter. Smart, though borderline unsportsmanlike, play by the Ravens. Holding in the end zone results in a safety anyway, which they were already conceding.

The fact that Phil Simms made the case for a no call (rambling and incoherent as it was) proves that it should have been a penalty.

"I don't remember Gule"
head to foot
Now is he total gules; horridly trick'd
With blood of fathers, mothers, daughters, sons,
Baked and impasted with the parching streets,
That lend a tyrannous and damned light
To their lord's murder: roasted in wrath and fire,
And thus o'er-sized with coagulate gore,
With eyes like carbuncles, the hellish Pyrrhus
Old grandsire Priam seeks.

What the holding on the punt did was maybe cost the 49ers a play from scrimmage at the end - w/o the holding the punter doesnt get to burn as much time off the clock.
Crash - I disagree - I dont see how anybody outside of Ray Lewis disciple group could say that wasnt holding - should have been called imo

Holding or not it still would have been a safety. The problem was the holding allowed more time to run off. Baltimore exploited a loophole.
