Down by 10 with just a few seconds left, the Rams elected to kick a field goal instead of attempting a late touchdown, achieving the backdoor cover.
The theme of the weekend across the NFL and college football was second-half comebacks, from the New York Giants bouncing back from 21 points down against the Arizona Cardinals to the No. 19 Colorado Buffaloes overcoming a 28-17 fourth-quarter deficit to defeat Colorado State in double overtime.
By the time the Rams and 49ers kicked off Sunday, San Francisco’s closing line ranged from 7 to 7.5-points depending on the sportsbook. The 49ers pulled away late in the fourth quarter to win after the game was tied at the half, but everyone is talking about a late decision made by Los Angeles to take points in an already decided game.
