Los Angeles Rams versus San Francisco 49ers halftime recap

The 49ers defeated the Rams today in Los Angeles to improve their record to 2-13, three hours after the Browns won to improve their record to 1-14. Overall, he has started every game he’s ever played in as a professional since the 49ers drafted him back in 2007 out of Central Michigan.

Fassel, with the help of punter Johnny Hekker, kicker Greg Zuerlein and long snapper Jake McQuaide, browsed the web to educate himself about the Rams-49ers rivalry. He said his main goal is to continue to get more comfortable as the starter and also get a much-needed win.

Moments before the 49ers took the field Saturday against the Los Angeles Rams, they finally experienced a “victory”.

ON THE RUN: Perhaps this will be the week when Todd Gurley finally puts together his first 100-yard rushing game of the season. His 987 yards are the fifth-most among NFC pass catchers. On the next play, Tavon Austin sprinted 30 yards untouched around the left side for a touchdown to give Los Angeles a 14-7 lead. Hyde walked to the locker room under his own power with a slight limp and was quickly ruled out of the game.

The rest of the game was a huge mix of fun, awful, and downright boring.

Beyond the protocol, Sherman’s hit on Goff also highlighted a learning curve for the young quarterback, who was drafted first overall this past spring, but sat on the bench for nine games. With so much invested in him and so much riding on his success, Goff can put a positive final spin on what’s been a terrible season if he can finish the year on an uptick and create real momentum heading into 2017. The 49ers pulled within 21-14 with 5:06 left in the fourth quarter on quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s 13-yard touchdown run.

Keenum then missed the next two games because of the head injury.

The Rams have two games remaining in the season to make an assessment of their current roster.

Things got interesting after the Hyde injury and fumble.

Seemingly headed to an easy victory with a 21-7 lead early in the fourth quarter, the Rams allowed two touchdowns. In reality, this game will be decided by whichever weak unit performs the strongest: the 49er defense or the Ram offense. They did not impress during their first go on the field.

With the clock showing 31 seconds and the 49ers losing 20-21, the team from the Bay Area made a decision to go for the two-point conversion. They converted on a Kaepernick scramble and that was that. “You can’t print what I would say”. Mannion displayed moments of leadership and execution in the preseason but has occupied the third slot on the quarterback depth chart. That’s something, I suppose.

Much has changed in Rams-land since the season opener. Now the Niners must contend with Donald with a patchwork offensive line that is without center Daniel Kilgore and will probably have more moving pieces again this week.
