The 49ers had a 0.4 percent chance of winning vs. the Rams. Anyone who watched would have said those odds were too favorable. And yet, Jimmy G and the Niners came out on top.
That’s not me saying so, that’s the NFL.
San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould boots a field goal in overtime of an NFL football game against the Los Angeles Rams, Sunday, Jan. 9, 2022, in Inglewood, Calif. But facing their demise, the Niners forced a 3-and-out on defense, calling three timeouts in the process. They had the ball back with 1:27 to play, 75 yards to the end zone, and no timeouts.
The work wasn’t done, though. After the touchdown, the Niners stopped the Rams from scoring, again, before driving 79 yards in overtime to set up what was a game-winning field goal. That’s because five plays later, rookie cornerback Ambry Thomas intercepted Rams quarterback Matt Stafford’s deep shot down the right sideline to end the contest.
