It happened again last night. Not just once, but twice.

Less than three minutes in the half, facing first and ten from their own 20 yard line and with three timeouts, the SF 49ers push the ball up the field, hoping to score before the half.

When a fumble gives the ball to Arizona on their own 30, with just over a minute to go and three timeouts, they push the ball up the field, hoping to score before the half. And they do.

Why? Because it's important!

And that's with Tim Rattan and Josh McCown at quarterback for those two teams. Sure, McCown's numbers turned out pretty good for the day, but nobody's mistaking those two kids for Brett Favre.

As I pointed out last week, the Packers made a different choice when they faced a similar situation against TB, and that's what I think their main problem is.

Tonight? We'll see. I'm still predicting a win.
