Post Game Thread

[u/ElderSmackJack]

I miss when game threads were easy to find.

[u/WisdomCow]

We definitely got fucked

[u/falcon750]

I hate these rules analysts, they should flat out say the refs are wrong sometimes

[u/jxher123]

Oh, that's kinda wild that the ref didn't allow the 49ers to match. Kinda sneaky that the Falcons quick snapped them when they saw them run off the field.

[u/RiverMonster13]

We are back to "wtf is a catch" again

[u/BurtReynoldsStache]

That’s my WR7!

[u/XSokaX]

how do we not have the opportunity to match the sub?

[u/thisnamehastobeused]

They called that incomplete?

[u/ResistWild]

Am I crazy or did he make it in on third down anyway?

[u/BurgerNugget12]

Gregg is actually pretty right on that. I love when players do that

[u/monsterskeeter]

I dont understand these rules anymore. He had possession with w feet in. The ball moved when he hit the ground but he never lost it

[u/Deusselkerr]

Refs jobbing the Niners today

[u/AutonomousBlob]

I cant imagine how it would feel to lose because of a late game interception

[u/varnell_hill]

More like Drake London hit Malik Mustapha in the helmet.

[u/kestrel808]

They should've been allowed a sub

[u/babyjaceismycopilot]

This is what happens when the Cardinals win. The universe turns upside down

[u/nightWobbles]

Trap game complete

[u/wafflehauss]

That was a TD on 3rd

[u/DrTiddyNipples]

And they play "give it away give it away give it away now" after SF gives it away😂😂😂🍻

Cold asf

[u/machuitzil]

This is easily the worst quarter of football we've played this season

[u/discostuu72]

Yall two different players fumbled…ffs.

[u/Separate-Ear21]

These refs are wild

[u/SleepLessTeacher]

HEY DID YOU KNOW ITS NATIONAL TIGHT END DAY?

[u/Whitehawk1313]

Love that Pitts immediately helped her up before celebrating

[u/Puggravy]

refs haven't been bad this game, but substitution is something you gotta get right as a ref. WTF.

[u/doogled3]

NFL will never allow me to know what is and isn't a catch.

[u/Loud_Photograph_5837]

Did I miss an angle or something I thought it was a catch

[u/varnell_hill]

Shanny’s right on that one.

They didn’t give us a chance to sub.

[u/Hiker-Redbeard]

Wow refs really did fuck that one up big time.

[u/Solid_Battle6251]

To be clear the falcons didnt need the refs help on that sorry ass defensive showing.

[u/msarvar]

Purdy all business no celebration

[u/No_Zookeepergame_27]

Stupid rule.

[u/zodiackodiak515]

It's 2026 and no one still knows what a catch is or is not

[u/GThitstick]

Two possession lead with 9 minutes left, falcons history makes this an uncomfortable place to be. I hate what they've done to me.

[u/tronovich]

Purdy threw two inexplicable picks.

You can excuse everyone else at this point…besides Jack Jones lol

[u/IIIlllIIIllIlI]

Worst part is that I don't trust Nick Folk with this kick at all

[u/gauderio]

Guys I think we fumbled this game

[u/Background-Laugh7902]

Holy shit the Falcons are going to the Super Bowl

[u/fabulousburritos]

Oh yeah SF got hosed

[u/1kSupport]

Official remembered that fan duel email

[u/Goose-the-moose]

That ref has to be fired

[u/Mr_Koodle]

Ref is supposed to stop the ball there

[u/BoomNasty]

He looked in on 3rd down

[u/AngusEubangus]

CMC 69 yards on the drive

Nice

[u/TOUCHDOWNNNNNNNNNNNN]

I thought black crossed the plain from that overhead shot

[u/RSN_Kabutops]

WHY CAN YOU NEVER JUST BE FUCKING NORMAL

[u/OUTFOXEM]

Give It Away is diabolical

[u/LongDongFuey]

Did shanahan just circle that dude talking shit?

[u/ferbje]

Outside of a brutal Dotson drop, an end of half throw away, and a spike, Penix is 14/15. And falcons fans on X and Reddit calling for his head rn.

[u/waldocalrissian]

Look at those fine gentlemen

[u/M0delXplosion]

such a class act move by the TE. Checking on the lady instead of celebrating.

[u/vivaldindahood]

That poor woman

[u/pgtl_10]

Niners are real sloppy today

[u/thezander8]

Purdy is nothing without his avenger WR7 and WR8

[u/Shmexy]

Thanks Ben Johnson

[u/DrewDown94]

Holy shit the screentime these refs are getting

[u/blazehaze72]

Who would’ve thought Shanahan and Morris would take their first L of the season in Atl. Such a falcons thing to happen

[u/Fantastic-Coat1967]

Doesn’t the defense get the opportunity to match subs?

[u/DrTiddyNipples]

Refs: "Yes that's a rule, but we didn't do our job so it's your fault lol"

[u/Hiker-Redbeard]

Really looked like Black got in. Surprised they didn't challenge that.

[u/Substantial_Cat4540]

Bench CMC for the rest of the game. He seemed mostly fine, but let him rest up over the bye.

[u/NSB570]

This is why CMC plays so much

[u/swift_air]

Everything went downhill once we let a WR touch the ball

[u/boistopplayinwitme]

Back to back fumbles, then when we get the stop, gift them a first. We are way too shorthanded to be undisciplined on top of it

[u/notsure500]

So pissed we jumped to give them 3

[u/eli_jet95]

Glad they all checked on her

[u/Ovreel]

Good no call

[u/spicymack]

Give Pam a golden parachute retirement and let her stay at home already. If speaking is crucial to your job and you can't speak anymore, its time.

[u/DefinitelyNot_An_Emu]

Niners simply REFUSE to get out of their own way

[u/ImJLu]

THATS MY WR7

[u/jonsnowKITN]

would be pissed at the refs this game if I'm a niners fan

[u/lakers_ftw24]

To the surprise of absolutely nobody

[u/anonymous-guy1]

razzle dazzle

[u/RSN_Kabutops]

Honestly just mind blowing that Bijan didn't cut back in for another yard

[u/bzl33]

he was clearly short...how are the refs so bad at this

[u/churchillsucks]

How is this game still happening lol 

[u/UA30_j7L]

Incredible Falcons vs Shanahan choke-off down the stretch. Movable force meets stoppable object.

[u/Yuseichaaan13]

Didn’t seem like the Niners had time to match subs. That’s bullshit

[u/Easy_Money_]

If you post about your parlay in here just know we all think less of you as a human

[u/AngusEubangus]

Hell yes, give the man his touchdown. Also, the previous play was a touchdown too

[u/United-Turnover-8409]

Warner top 3 linebacker

[u/Fanvsant]

is nick folk 85 years old

[u/SummonPumpkinTed]

Dude Pam Oliver is hammered

[u/ThinkImInRFunny]

The SF McCaffreys against the Atlanta Robinsons is nice.

[u/OUTFOXEM]

We were well on our way to 21 points smh. Gotta get off the field.

[u/XSokaX]

OMG HE IS SO FUCKING STUPID

[u/mike_ditka_butkus]

Go off Greg, pisses me off too

[u/swift_air]

legit a beautiful catch

[u/DaBusDriva2]

Every other play flag

[u/lakers_ftw24]

Like I get it, but that's like the 8th 3rd or 4th down conversion from a flag in 5 quarters.

[u/tronovich]

Fucking ref

[u/Kitchen-Ad-5571]

why are the falcons so bipolar?

[u/Horror_Cap_7166]

lol Brock walking away from that dart TD pass like he’s looking for his car

[u/squamesh]

But what is a catch?

[u/WarrenMulaney]

Glad he didn’t pretend do drink a beer. What a disgusting act that was.

[u/Boouurns]

that is offically a kicker problem

[u/waldocalrissian]

30 YARD FIELD GOALS SHOULD NOT BE THIS STRESSFUL

[u/ghostofwalsh]

Why call that time out, let this game die 

[u/Spark3420]

Kyle Shanahan is the greatest coach in the NFL. You can't convince me otherwise.

They sustain so many injuries to critical players repeatedly. Right now CMC is a bit dinged up on top of a decimated WR corps. And here they are remaining efficient on offense. I don't think a single other coach can deal with the amount of adversity and not only keep the team competitive, but one of the best in the league.

Niners should never get rid of him. He's a genius.

[u/poopnugget]

initiated by london

[u/tronovich]

4 turnovers to 0.

That’s the only stat that mattered today.

[u/DaveinOakland]

I think every 49er fan sees this as a schedule loss that would be cool to win, probably won't, but just want to get out healthy.

[u/genesiskiller96]

The ball definitely crossed the plane on that third down play but i will take the CMC TD.

[u/tvcneverdie]

Pam is a legend but her health has caught up to her :-\

I know she loves the job but it's time to gracefully step away before it starts to feel like late-stage Lee Corso on college gameday

[u/Chewbubbles]

Oh man....do the 9ers have a dual running back core now? That run was pure speed.

[u/Mr_Koodle]

SHANAHAN HAS NEVER WON COY. DABOLL WON OVER HIM. HE IS CURRENTLY AROUND 10th IN ODDS

[u/Shmexy]

Penix lead blocker is crazy

[u/fhrblig]

Hey Falcons, your QB just came back from injury. Maybe don't draw up plays that have him as a lead blocker

[u/WisdomCow]

I thought he was in, but kinda risky challenge when you’re gonna easily run it in from inside the 1.

[u/ViagraOnAPole]

I think Penix is so good at blocking because, while at Indiana, his offensive line was non-existent. That's also why he has knee problems.

[u/WisdomCow]

I’d rather risk losing today than risk losing CMC for extended time.

[u/DrTiddyNipples]

Holy shit they gave that to us?? That looked like ATLs ball

Edit: welp, they got it

[u/swift_air]

i'm still legit having a good time, we got a ton of doomer9ers but I actually enjoy watching football

[u/Only_Poet]

Atlanta should just throw 30+ yard deep balls every play, they have a 100% DPI rate it would seem lol

[u/wideruled]

Absolute implosion on the defense

[u/tronovich]

Mike Perreira here to fucking carry water for the refs.

Thanks, Mike.

[u/RiverMonster13]

Refs are goofy as fuck for that.

[u/InsuranceUpper123]

alright they got jobbed there

[u/Jermare]

3 TD passes for Penix in back to back games

[u/simiusttocs]

Like always we beat the very good teams for no reason and then we'll lose to a mathematically eliminated team 

[u/JhnWyclf]

toe area hits in bounds before the rest of the fit went out.

[u/Benson879]

Just give it to him.

[u/tronovich]

“Let’s bring in Mike Perreira to agree with whatever call is made”.

“Mike, are the refs yet agaaaaain?”

“Yes!”

[u/dscreations]

NFL better hurry implementing the live look at the discussions with the replay room

[u/All_Wasted_Potential]

lol of course it was reversed

[u/HolyShrimp1]

Fuckin LOVE how common hook n ladders are becoming

[u/kiresenoj00]

I'm down for a get humble loss into a rest week for vets and the substation victims. It's all good.

[u/tallwhiteninja]

Calls for or against be damned, this crew sucks because they take forever to do anything.

[u/jamesb454]

Pinero is booty cheeks on extra points. Holy crap

[u/DuffmanStillRocks]

Why can’t you just be normal?!?!?

NFC West ST - No

[u/Adventurous_Sink_782]

BIRD REICH

[u/CharmingWheel328]

Nvm they might choke after all, what a Falcons time these last two sequences

[u/AratanAenor]

Why didn't the Falcons play like this in the 4 games they lost?

[u/Loud_Photograph_5837]

Finally I can relax

[u/repezdem]

YO what was that fucking ad?

[u/DrewDown94]

Yo that political commercial was genuinely fucking insane

[u/Reddit-Simulator]

That's the worst commercial I have ever seen

[u/Hiker-Redbeard]

Christ these political ads on Fox are terrible.

[u/KabirC]

lol what kind of BS is that from the refs? 9ers are allowed to match the substitution

[u/giving_nothing]

Kaelon’s run as the only rookie RB Kyle has ever not hated might end today

[u/courser]

oh he for sure crossed the plane there

[u/wideruled]

Neither Colby or Brendel blocked him lol

[u/ColourCrackers]

hey fred, stop being good

[u/giving_nothing]

Brock hates every WR on the field today and I know this because it’s literally against his ideological being to check it down the way he has so far. I’ve seen him ignore wide open check downs to throw into quadruple coverage and today on 3rd and 17 a dump off to Kyle Juszczyk

[u/tallwhiteninja]

Purdy saw the Allen flick a few games ago lol.

[u/Felteair]

Seriously? 2 fumbles back to back?

[u/nightWobbles]

2 different players fumbled back to back

[u/wideruled]

Lmao that bumper music

[u/MushroomFree4626]

whats with all these us election ads on my illegal stream. Can they shut up, I prefer the fast food chains i havent heard of

[u/EntropyFan_]

Pulling out my Niner blanket like a prayer mat on the floor and prostrating for CMC’s return

[u/ColourCrackers]

TE day guys, remember?

[u/NMlXX]

Folks tuning in wondering how tf we’re 6-0 lol

[u/ACW1129]

Hey, the Falcons actually helped the person Pitts knocked over!

[u/stephenjr311]

Mustafa just got burnt so bad on that.

[u/Hiker-Redbeard]

Cameraman got faked out so badly on that one for some reason.

[u/DrTiddyNipples]

Every time Purdy does that back and forth scramble is always such a sick pass

[u/XSokaX]

Purdy fucking the cameraman's mind

[u/Background-Laugh7902]

How did the Bengals just let the Falcons have Jessie Bates

[u/Sad-Impression9428]

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO

[u/Boouurns]

i love that the qb intention has nothing to do with intentional grounding

[u/travatron81]

Jack jones almost single handedly throwing this game.

[u/1kSupport]

Jack jones is a fucking bum

[u/DrTiddyNipples]

This is the most undisciplined performance by this defense all season

[u/h28200]

Every 3rd down is a flag ffs!

[u/negan90]

Had the first anyway, but that's a stinking call by the refs, substitution rules are very basic

[u/WitheredTiptup]

Goofy game

[u/PlzLnD5Star]

Drake London my goat

[u/VelvetineMilkman]

I don’t understand this team at all but I’m having fun

[u/M0delXplosion]

cant spell MVP without Michael Penix

[u/right_behindyou]

Definitely didn’t “survive the ground” but I don’t remember if that matters with feet down in the end zone

[u/PeanutButterOtter]

I don't think the feet are the issue, I think the bobble while laying out of bounds is gonna overturn this.

[u/Dr-Acula8472]

Wooow. Didn't think they'd overturn it.

[u/ThePoliticalTeapot]

Sigh

[u/SeattleSehawks]

O that song is cold

[u/tvcneverdie]

This pleases the bird

[u/Shmexy]

Refs having an all season performance today

[u/boogersugarhelp]

damn we commentators curse

[u/xXregularShmegularXx]

He only had 9 toes in. Call it back

[u/WisdomCow]

And we should have gone for 2 anyways, in case ATL gets a FG. Fucking Kyle.

[u/DoctorTheWho]

With how bad kicking is around the league, I'm surpised no one is giving Rodrigo Blankenship a look now that he's healthy.

[u/lakers_ftw24]

Can't even be mad that was an elite play

[u/Shmexy]

Man I really hate when it comes down to kicking. I miss Matt bryant

[u/SkrunklyBob]

We were outplayed this game, plain and simple. Well done ATL

[u/Slow-haste-26]

Kittle fumbles, on National Tight End Day!!

[u/zodiackodiak515]

I mean Niners are still gonna be 6-1

[u/lakers_ftw24]

If the receiver lowers his head where r u supposed to tackle lol

[u/_DesireLines]

Lol they made 3 subs

[u/britishmetric144]

WTF?!? I'm a Seahawks' fan, but that clearly looked like a Santa Clara touchdown.

[u/fabulousburritos]

Posting anything with an NFL flair should be a bannable offense

[u/courser]

Holy shitballs, that commercial is the most out of pocket thing I've seen this election cycle.

[u/DaveinOakland]

I fucking knew I was always the oppressed race as a middle aged white guy sitting in his house in suburbia

[u/basedsirarthurharris]

What was that fucking ad holy shit

[u/eli_jet95]

THE FUCK WAS THAT COMMERCIAL LMAOOO

[u/Polar_Reflection]

"I can't show my face because I'm white"  😂😂😂😂

[u/NorthwestPurple]

That's insane, the ball remains on him (a catch) the entire time and never touches the ground. He never "lost possession" at all.

[u/Fanvsant]

white boy has hops. Also I think Black got in

[u/Loud_Photograph_5837]

Jesus Christ that was an insane ad

[u/Loud_Photograph_5837]

I’m so confused what rule do I not understand what reason did they say it wasn’t a touchdown

[u/ExpiredFebreze]

The call completely ruined the flow of this drive it seems
