Not a single objective person will conclude that Sunday's 30-27 win was a pretty one for the San Francisco 49ers. Up 30-13 early in the fourth quarter, San Francisco let the Detroit Lions back in the game big time. Of the six times San Francisco's quarterback was sacked, five of them came with him holding on to the ball way too long. * San Francisco's rushing attack dominated a weak Lions front seven to the tune of 190 yards on 28 attempts. San Francisco raked up just two take downs on Stafford, DeForest Buckner coming up with his third of the season.
