Anyone else not give a crap about the super bowl?
i seen the end of that game HOW DOES A PRO KICK RETURNER NOT EVEN HOLD THE BALL,JUST LETS IT LAY ON HIS ARM.sniff sniff smells fishy.The niners had that game till then.
Kyle Williams has a history of muffing punts. Apparently, in college he pulled something similar in a big game. In the Giants game, Williams made the following errors:
1. Failed to catch a reverse, fumbled, but the Niners recovered.
2. Dove to catch a punt (that is a no-no)
3. Let a punt bounce on the ground and then hit is leg. This lead to 7 points for the Giants. The thing that really irritates me about that play is that: One, he shouldn't have been anywhere near that ball; and two, after the ball hit his leg, he just stood there and didn't even bother to chase it down. Basically, he pretended that the ball missed him.
4. Lastly, the costly fumble in over time. He was trying to make a big play and paid the price for his carelessness. Lead to a game winning field goal.
OK, the mistakes happened and that's that. I'm not trying to make excuses for the Niners losing that game, but man, it certainly looked like they were being sabotaged. I feel bad for the guy (Willaims), and he doesn't deserve the threats he's been receiving from some of the fans. Hopefully, he will learn from his mistakes and come back stronger and smarter next year. The Niners had their chances, but made too many critical mistakes at the worst possible time. Plus, their 3rd down conversion percentage was as horrendous as ever. Oh well, there's always next year.
