I was surprised the 49ers didn't run the ball more, Gore was starting to have success in the second quarter when the game was still close. In the third they basically put the game in Smith's hands and he promptly threw a killer pick to MacKenzie, putting the 49ers in big time catch up mode. The lost story of the game, due to Reggie's four td's, was that Deuce ran for 126 and he was really the catalyst of the offence, especially after Horn went down on the second series.
