Poor Mike Singletary. Poor poor Iron Mike. I know you want your San Francisco 49ers to be a physical team. But two straight runs from 2 1/2 yards out in the final seconds? And Michael Robinson on the last play of the game? No Frank Gore if you're dead-set on running the ball? I know Mike Martz calls the plays (and that's an entirely different story for another day), but botched final plays of games like that one always help define a coach's tenure on a ballclub. It's a shame, but Singletary has not exactly had the greatest opening pair of games to start a head coaching career. Despite the 49ers playing their best game of the season, that final segment of goal-line commotion will always provide the lasting image.
Kurt Warner, meanwhile, continued to lead a dynamic passing attack that shows no signs of slowing down. The Cardinals gunslinger finished 32-of-42 for 328 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the Cards' sixth straight home win. Warner completed 76.2 percent of his passes, the sixth time Warner has completed at least 70 percent of his passes this season. He now has surpassed 300 yards in 45 % of his starts in his career, highest all-time in the NFL.
