Wow I didn't realize that Bronco fans were such whiny b***hes….my TL is full of the ref f**ked us, so and so was hurt blah blah blah. I mean is their first time dealing with injuries? Niner fans say sup.

I counted 4 separate times they miss spotted us and multiple no-call holds on their OL.

End of the day their offense is dogs**t
I was at the game and it seemed like there was more blatant non calls helping the broncos

Dude for real! I saw so many holds that were clear as day….also I saw a 3 & 4 down by the goal that was 6 yards back and that failed 4th and 1 QB draw was 4th and 2 at the very least. The spotting vs what they said on the TV was off a lot for us.

Can't we just enjoy the win.
It's being enjoyed, but when the refs try to take that win from you it's hard to just ignore

It sounds like both fan bases think they got screwed a few times. It's part of football. Always has been. Instant replay still doesn't change that. Refs will never be able to see every penalty since they're at field level and don't always have the clear view that fans get while watching on TV or on that big screen at the games.
interesting sequence when kyle says at half time we need to get those third and shorts, then they get stuffed out the gate in the 2nd half, so we go on 4th down and it's the bizarro snap to black for a lucky first down, so we have some stuff to clean up in short yardage
I had to mute everything Denver Broncos related on X as their fan base is throwing a f**king temper tantrum. They are whining about injuries(the audacity), the refs, dirty hits, and everything in between. I didn't think it got much worse than Philly and Seattle fans but they have really stepped up to the plate.

Now you know what Niner fans sound like after we lose a game.

These refs get paid to watch for penalties plus I'm not talking about the ticky tak calls

i'm talking about the calls so blatantly I can seem them from 60 yards away at nearly field level

Our OL is not built for power blocking

Brendel is especially bad at it

We use movement and angles to run block...which sucks when it is a short yardage situation and the other team can tee off

Agreed on that point.

I felt like the refs didn't call some blantant PIs on Denver too. Several bad holding penalties that weren't called.

Overall, I'm not a big fan of refs calling penalties unless they're clear and impact the play. I felt like there were several times that penalties should of been called that really impacted the play.

But as others have said, it's all part of the game. happens almost every game to most teams. I just wish refs were most consistent - call penalties on egregious/obvious calls. Outside of that, let the boys play.

Yeah when you knock down the WR when he is trying to make a catch, I think its your obligation to throw the flag.

I haven't seen any SB team to get screwed in 3 SBs like most teams

I know he is the favorite whipping boy when it comes to the OL, however, he is not "especially bad" at power blocking. Actually, he is the #6 ranked Center in the league and his run blocking grade is average among all 33 Centers in the league.

Brendel looks like a different player so far this season. He's actually playing really well; maybe it is having Puni back at full force.
anyone have any answers on how we stopped the run to a reasonable extent against denver?

I'm not saying refs don't miss penalties. Even some that are obvious. My point is they're on the field in the middle of all that action. They can't be looking at everything at once. Even when they're lokng right at a play where a penalty occurs they aren't always in position to see it. It can happen on the side away from their view. Especially a hold on PI. They also need to try and keep from interfering with the play and watch out for the players.

Penalties will always be missed. They can't stop after every play and review to see if there was a missed call. It doesn't do any good to complain about what you saw as a penalty even if it seemed obvious. A lot of fans are still complaining about Bosa being held in the SB. What good does that do? They aren't going to go back and change the score. Those calls can go both ways.
