I appreciate seeing people over 50 celebrate, because we had a really long walk through the desert to get there.

when they went out for that drive, i was just like "just get 4 yards; then another, then a 1st down etc. Just get positive yards and eat the clock". when Williams turned that corner, and I just fell to my knees because it for sure over. on my knees watching him run into the endzone etc; my wife is yelling her head off celebrating, and I'm just kneeling there...staring at the tv, silent. after a few seconds, I went into full celebration mode. but for those few seconds....was like I was frozen in time. after celebrating, and just waiting for the game to end I sat down and pretty much cried lol. ALL of the memories of going to games, tailgating,enduring the cold,, finding ways to lose, not throwing a td to a WR for like 2 years, choking in spectacular record setting ways in the playoffs; endless line of average QBs in here; season after season after season of football disappointment my entire life...man. It was awwesome. |

When we got the ball back after the INT thee were only 3 times we could run the clock - after first, second, and third. In this case if Williams goes down in bounds - there would be 4 times - after getting the first, after running on first, after running on second, and after running on third. Game over. I think. |

In previous conversations about this I was worried Shanny Jr. would have had his lineman go for the legs of the Chiefs lineman/Pat. Maybe I'm not giving Shanny enough credit, but it felt a little bush-league to call those timeouts AND have his lineman go after Pat when he was down by 2 scores with seconds left in the game. I know you play until the final whistle or whatever, but on the flip side, a lot of people would have felt it would have been totally uncalled for had Pat hit DRob for the easy TD to go up 37-20 as time expired. |

First down at 1:12 with SF having 1 TO left. They run 2 seconds off the clock and SF uses last TO with 1:10 left. Second down snap at 1:10 and they run off two seconds on the play then 39 before next play. Third down snap at :29. Don’t even get to a 4th down play. Game. But I’m glad he scored. |

I'm typically an analytical guy, but **** that. When DWill hit the jets, it was over. Frank and HB weren't going to let it slip away after that and we DESERVED that TD and all of the emotions that came with it.

Who is coming in to play QB for them at that point, because Jimmy Grapes certainly wasn't beating us.

I wouldn't be surprised to hear that the analytics say to slide after gaining the 1st down, but I agree. It was an emphatic end to our suffering.. that and the Fuller INT, I suppose, though the game was all but over at that point.

Plus, it statistically put us at a positive point differential in our three Super Bowl appearances combined: 64 points for, 62 points against. |
