It doesn't get much worse than that. The 49ers had chances to win this game and advance to Super Bowl XLVI, and instead the season is over. This one is going to sting all offseason and beyond. The chances were there and it didn't happen. I don't know what else to say. This is about as low as it can get. Yes it is amazing the team got into this position, but right here, right now, that does not make it any easier to accept what just happened.

I don't know what the posting schedule will be like the next day or two. Right now I just want to dig a hole and hide from the world. Given how old I was at the time of the Roger Craig fumble/Matt Bahr kick, I didn't quite grasp the enormity of it. This one stings like no other loss. I'm happy to look at the bright future some other time.

As for Kyle Williams struggles, he will be the goat for this game, but he and others who struggled have bright moments. Complain all you want, but no need for personal attacks on players who have done so much for this team this year.
