Last year, San Francisco’s Dre’ Bly showboated on an interception against the Falcons, and was stripped from behind. The Niners lost that game 45-10.
History Repeats Itself For Niners Against Falcons As Nate Clements Is Stripped On Interception
↵Naturally, the Niners had another fumble on a interception return happen today against the Falcons — but this one swung the game. Nate Clements wasn’t showboating, but he got caught from behind and coughed up the ball on a pick return with under two minutes left in the fourth quarter against Atlanta.
↵To make matters worse, the Niners led 14-13 at that juncture, and Clements could have salted away the game by sliding. Instead, Atlanta made the most of its reprieve, driving down the field and getting a Matt Bryant field goal as time expired to win 16-14. The Niners, it should be noted, remain winless.
