Turnovers and short fields doomed Washington
3rd Quarter
Chase Young tackle:
Chase Young is moving well. Just chased down a run from the back-side and made a diving tackle.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 24, 2022
Young already at 12 snaps.

George Kittle TD:
George Kittle runs right down the middle of the field and nobody on the #Commanders picks him up. Wide open for a 49ers TD pic.twitter.com/87Tof6dBsA

Darrick Forrest missed this one. Kam Curl missed in this one. https://t.co/lwhIYwWr9u pic.twitter.com/fd444eby3l

Low snaps:
The low snaps from Wes Schweitzer to Taylor Heinicke have got to stop. #Commanders

Missed pass to Antonio Gibson:
Clarifying, I meant that Taylor has to put the ball on Gibson…bad throw. He missed him after Gibson won on the rout. https://t.co/WBE56o0sIn

Turnover on downs:
Ron Rivera earned his nickname on that call. Riverboat went for 4th-and-a-foot at his own 34. Didn’t get it.
Loved going for it. Loved the QB sneak call. They didn’t get it. They didn’t execute.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 24, 2022
Ron Rivera has had some extended conversations with officials for two weeks in a row now. He seems unhappy about the spot after the QB sneak.

Touchdown George Kittle:
Touchdown 49ers. George Kittle gets in the end zone on a pass from Purdy.
The score now with just under five minutes left: SF 21, WAS 7

Third special teams penalty of game:
HOW do you commit an unnecessary roughness penalty on a TOUCHBACK?

Rachad Wildgoose puts the ‘wild’ in Wildgoose.

Another big play:
Easy to get separation with a route like this @THE2ERA

Big plays killing this D…. Doesn’t look like St-Juste’s ankle is all that great. Had to push off on that one as Aiyuk cut outside. Tough. But they need him out there.
— John Keim (@john_keim) December 24, 2022
Chase Young looking good:
Credit Young with playing that screen well. Wanted to take advantage of CY being aggressive. He played it right.
— John Keim (@john_keim) December 24, 2022
Chase Young came to play today. He’s done a ton of things well that don’t show up in the box score.
— Ethan Cadeaux (@Ethan_Cadeaux) December 24, 2022
One thing the coaches thought: The more Young played, the more comfortable he’d feel with his knee. Just had to get out there. He’s done a nice job, especially for a guy who has missed 13 months.

James Smith-Williams/Jon Bostic injured:
James Smith-Williams is hurt and trainers are looking at him.

Taylor Heinicke fumbled and San Francisco recovers mid-air. Nick Bosa has wrecked this game. 49ers takeover at the 10.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) December 24, 2022
49ers FG:
San Fran takes advantage of the Heinicke fumble and tacks on another field goal. The Commanders are down two scores with just over 12 minutes left to play, 27-14

Dax Milne at kick returner:
Milne was back on that kick return. AG looked gimpy on the previous one

No TD, but Jimmie Ward gets the INT!

Carson Wentz time:
Carson Wentz is taking snaps on the sideline.
After the pick-6, Ron Rivera spoke to Taylor Heinicke, and Heinicke slammed his helmet.
— Sam Fortier (@Sam4TR) December 24, 2022
Defense in the redzone:
Not the biggest story right now, but the defense just made three consecutive red-zone stands. That’s not nothing.
— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) December 24, 2022
Carson Wentz is in the game:
After two Taylor Heinicke turnovers in three plays, Ron Rivera is taking the chance to go back to the man he traded for.
Carson Wentz is entering the game.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 24, 2022
Overthrows Logan Thomas:
Overthrows a big tight end. It is him!
— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) December 24, 2022
Early pressure on Wentz:
49ers immediately sending blitzes at Wentz who is getting the ball out quickly. He’s wasting no time.
He’s been watching the game. He gets it.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 24, 2022
Almost picked:
And Carson just threw a verrrrrry close INT. The turnovers wont just magically go away without Heinicke
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) December 24, 2022
Touchdown to Curtis Samuel:
Carson Wentz drops it in @CurtisSamuel4__’s bread basket for a TD on his first drive since Week 6

First Commander off the sideline to congratulate Carson Wentz on the TD pass: Taylor Heinicke.

Joey Slye is not good at onside kicks:
Might be the worst onside kick ive ever seen
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) December 24, 2022
Kittle to the 1:
Kittle getting downed at the 1 will probably cheat us out of a second possession of Wentz.
— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) December 25, 2022
Christian McCaffery TD:
CMC adds another @49ers TD #FTTB

Pressure vs Wentz:
Carson got hammered on that throw, knew it was coming, and still made the throw
