49ers | League admits to mistakes during Week 3 game
Sat, 30 Sep 2006 09:35:20 -0700
Matt Maiocco, of The Press Democrat, reports the NFL told the San Francisco 49ers this week that its officiating crew made multiple errors resulting in 207 second-half yards in the team's Week 3 loss versus the Philadelphia Eagles, including DT Mike Patterson's 98-yard touchdown return. The 49ers challenged the ruling that Patterson was not down after recovering RB Frank Gore's goal-line fumble, and although the call was upheld during the game, replays showed Patterson with possession of the ball and both knees on the ground, in contact with OT Kwame Harris.
