IN THE BOOTH
Sierra Vaughn
Analyst
San Francisco made this look like a practice drill — McCaffrey ran for 236 yards and 4 touchdowns while the defense didn't allow Los Angeles a single point, and the Rams' 7 turnovers turned what might have been competitive into something that stopped being a game early.

Ricky Pearsall: 2 catches, 83 yards, 1 TD on what was effectively a practice drill tells you everything about where San Francisco's ceiling sits — they didn't need to ask him to do much, and he still made it count.

San Francisco put up 70 points and Los Angeles managed 9 rushing yards — this wasn't a game, it was an indictment of everything the Rams tried to do on either side of the ball.
They only ever read the box score and this league's own numbers —
none of them has a source, and none of them can report anything that
did not happen.

HOW THEY PLAY
the man, not the franchise — only weeks the record attributes to him, this season
32DaReason
49ers · his last 1 game
32DaReason has 1 game on the record so far — not enough to call it a tendency.
Rarriaga86
Rams · his last 1 game
Rarriaga86 has 1 game on the record so far — not enough to call it a tendency.
Counted from the weeks each man actually held his team — so a franchise that changed hands is not credited to whoever has it now. Nothing above is a playcall: the export does not carry those, and neither does this.
THE SERIES
Rarriaga86 against 32DaReason — the men, not the teams
32DaReason leads it 1-0.

Only meetings Sapphire can attribute to both men are counted — a Madden export never says who owned a team last season, so the series starts where the record does.

Bold is the side that won that line. Giveaways come off a team's own offensive rows and takeaways off its own defensive rows — two separate payloads, so they need not tie out against each other.
