Rams troll 49ers over Week 3 collapse with win probability chart

Rams troll 49ers over Week 3 collapse with win probability chart originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area

The 49ers are hearing it from everybody after blowing a 10-point fourth-quarter lead to the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday at SoFi Stadium.

San Francisco, which fell 27-24 after leading 24-14 early in the fourth quarter, were cruising to the win over Los Angeles according to ESPN’s win probability graph.

But the Rams had the last laugh, sharing a screenshot of the graph on social media after the late-game dramatics to rub salt in the 49ers’ wounds.

Rams social media admin cooked with this one.

The Rams weren’t in the game until the bitter end. But it shouldn’t have mattered as the 49ers let multiple opportunities slip away. The analytics truly were convinced the road team would come away victorious.

The Rams’ win probability was as low as 3.2% with 4:14 remaining in the fourth quarter in their comeback win over the 49ers.

The stunning loss was nothing short of a meltdown for the 49ers. Despite being riddled with injuries, San Francisco had a double-digit lead, quarterback Brock Purdy made history in another excellent performance and wide receiver Jauan Jennings had a three-touchdown game.

And the wounded Rams remembered what analysts were saying about their badly injured team before the matinee.

The 49ers should be 2-1 right now, but a series of errors led to the Rams climbing out of their grave.

49ers wideouts were responsible for 75 percent of Purdy’s incompletions with six drops, while San Francisco’s special teams unit failed the team in key spots.

The Rams surely are enjoying the moment while rubbing it in the 49ers’ collective face.
