Was todays game a 4th Qtr comeback?

Well I was feeling pretty s**tty when the NYG took the lead, so I'll call it a comeback.
I was freaking out when the Giants scored to take the lead. I was like this can't be happening. When the Niners scored to take the lead back then after the INT I nearly blew the roof off the house with my scream.

Might need a promotion. Colonel Comeback
Is it really a "comeback" when we led most of the quarter?

Technically, it is because we were down when the quarter began, but really?

Gotta keep the alliterative quality of the moniker.

Could go the Navy route. Captain ----> Commodore. Commodore Comeback. Kinda like that.

yeah we entered the 4th being down one point, so it counts as a comeback. Alex now has 4 4th qtr comebacks (#2 behind Eli)
Of course. 4th quarter comeback has a very obvious definition.

Actually tied with Eli. At least during the game the announcers were saying he had four this year.

I understand this. I'm questioning whether or not it SHOULD be considered a comeback. I just don't think leading for the majority of the quarter in an otherwise close game should be considered a comeback. Coming back from 14 points? Sure. But 1 point at the beginning of the quarter and then leading the rest of the game? I don't know.

Either way, I don't think it even matters. We won, and that's all that matters. I'd rather win comfortably than in comeback fashion.
