Everything was right for the Taking for the Dirty Birds. Look at these Numbers on the Niners D:
QB Matty Ice 22/31 317 Yards and 3 in the 49ers End Zone...
WR Julio Jones 8 Grabs 1148 Yards and 2 in the 49ers End Zone...
WR Roddy White 6 Grabs 91 Yards....
TE Tony Gonzalez 8 Grabs 78 Yards and 1 in the 49ers End Zone...
If you would have told the Bluedude that Matty Ice and the "Peach Drop 3" would put up these Numbers on that Niners D I would have told you Peachtree and Atlanta Metro is going to Burn Tonight....in Celebration. The Falcons though looking at the Numbers closer only had 66 Net Yards on the Turf.
Looking at the 49ers Numbers vs that Falcons Bend and Break D:
QB Captain Kaepernick 16/21 233 Yards and 1 in the Falcons End Zone
TE Vernon Davis 5 Grabs 106 Yards and 1 in the Falcons End Zone...
WR Michael Crabtree 6 Grabs 57 Yards...WR Randy Moss 3 Grabs 46 Yards...
Now looking at the 49ers Ground Game....this is what made the Difference especially in the Red Zone:
RB Frank Gore 18 rushes for 80 Yards and 2 in the Falcons End Zone...
RB LaMichael James 5 rushes 34 Yards and 1 in the Falcons End Zone...
QB Captain Kaepernick 2 rushes 21 Yards...
The Niners had a Decided Edge coming into the Game and got up to speed in the 2nd Frame with a 139 Net Yards on the Falcons D. The Run Game in the Red Zone shredded the Falcons D and it came down to the Turnover Margin.
49ers 1 Turnovers (Crabtree Fumble at Falcons Goaline)
Falcons 2 Turnovers (Matty Ice INT/Matty Ice Fumble)
The Niners advance into Super Bowl 47 and the Falcons were a 4th Down in the Red Zone from possibly going to the First Super Bowl in just over a Decade.
The #QuestForSix is still intact for the Forty-Niners as it came down to the Niners D and they came through.
