There was little protection for Alex Smith on pass plays and he got rattled early. When that happens he's toast. That's the way to beat San Francisco -- concentrate on playing the box.

I thought the fake field goal challenge play changed the tempo. Arizona scored immediately afterward and found their mojo. They played a great game.
