A complete capitulation on the West Coast. The very first play looked like a devastating sack on the rookie Niners QB which became a personal foul penalty and it went downhill from there. Even a long TD pass to Mike Evans was called back for a holding penalty and the defense was unable to stop San Francisco on the ground or through the air. The Buc offense was nothing more than short completions against a prevent defense and they fell to 6-7 on the season.
