Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers had a classic in week 10. The 49ers dominated the field from the first quarter till the last minute of the game. Their passing was on point, and so were their interceptions. A touchdown by the tight end, George Kittle, and a beautiful interception by Jimmie Ward, which resulted in another touchdown in the last minute of the first quarter, gave San Francisco a very comfortable lead. But, we witnessed a moment of brilliance from Niners’ K’Waun Williams.

The entire match was smooth sailing for the 49ers. They were in the driver’s seat throughout the game. With a beautiful 7-31 lead in the fourth quarter in the bag, the 49ers were on the defense. The Rams threw the ball towards Cooper Kupp, hoping to gain some extra yards. But K’Waun Williams intercepted the ball unusually. The cornerback put his backside on the line to retrieve the ball, literally. The officials threw down the flag and ruled the decision against the 49ers.

The fans didn’t agree with the decision and believed the interception to be fair. Some were even calling the referees biased. Williams retrieved the ball before it touched the ground. It could have been the interception of the year for many. Why was the decision ruled against the 49ers? Well, that seems to be the biggest mystery of the NFL week 10. No one challenged the call because San Francisco had a very comfortable lead.

Other than the ‘controversial’ interception decision, everything went in favor of the San Francisco 49ers. They played brilliant football and were at the top of their game. Deebo Samuel made two touchdowns for SA. The Rams tried to give them a fight, but they were very clumsy and lost possession a lot. LA dropped a lot of passes, and the 49ers intercepted many of their plays as well. There was never a clear shot for Los Angeles to come back. The result of the match was 10-31, an easy victory for the 49ers.
