5 takeaways from 49ers-Rams: Shanahan and Garoppolo silence the naysayers

The 49ers erased a 14-point Los Angeles Rams lead and finished overtime at SoFi Stadium to catapult themselves into the playoffs.

Niners head coach Kyle Shanahan and quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo silenced the naysayers (including me) with their second half and overtime performance.

We take a look at my five takeaways below.

I was wrong for doubting this team

First and foremost, I’d like to apologize for doubting Shanahan, Garoppolo, and the 49ers as a whole. Beating Los Angeles six times in a row is an incredible feat, especially when the Rams have been a playoff team the last two seasons.
