GAME REVIEWS
Game 1
Arizona - 23
San Francisco - 13
at San Francisco, September 7, 2008
The San Francisco 49ers dropped its home-opener 23-13 against NFC West rival Arizona. The 49ers turned the ball over five times with four fumbles
and one interception. Despite three turnovers in the first half alone, San Francisco managed to head into halftime tied at 10-10. Arizona controlled the
ball for over 20 minutes in the second half and added 13 points to essentially seal the victory. The Cardinals took control of the game in the third quarter,
chewing 11 minutes off the clock and scoring 10 points before the 49ers even had a chance to run a single offensive play. Arizona took the second half
kick and engineered a 15-play, 65-yard drive that elapsed 6:35 off the clock before a 31-yard PK Neil Rackers field goal put the Cardinals in front, 13-
10. Rackers pooched the ensuing kick into the second row of the 49ers return unit where LB Takeo Spikes mishandled the ball, resulting in an Arizona
fumble recovery and a first down at the San Francisco 33-yard line. Arizona converted that drive into a touchdown when rookie RB Tim Hightower
scored on a two-yard run on a fourth-and-one situation for a 20-10 Cardinals lead. San Francisco QB J.T. O’Sullivan positioned the 49ers for a 30-yard
field goal early in the fourth quarter to close the gap to 20-13. The 49ers comeback chances ended when Arizona went on an 18-play, 62-yard drive field
goal drive that took over 10 minutes for a 23-13 advantage. San Francisco fumbled on the first play of the following drive to secure the win for Arizona.
O’Sullivan made his first NFL start and finished the game 14-of-20 for 195 yards with one interception and two fumbles. After spotting Arizona a 3-0
lead, RB Frank Gore took a handoff and bounced to the outside for a 41-yard touchdown run to give the 49ers a 7-3 lead. Gore finished the game with
96 yards rushing on 14 carries for a 6.9-yard average. A one-yard touchdown pass from QB Kurt Warner to WR Larry Fitzgerald gave the Cardinals a
10-7 second quarter lead before Nedney connected on a 39-yarder with just under two minutes to play in the first half to tie the game at 10-10.

San Francisco - 33
(OT)
Seattle - 30
at Seattle, September 14, 2008
The San Francisco 49ers overcame a 14-point first quarter deficit to win 33-30 in overtime after PK Joe Nedney nailed a 40-yard game-winning field
goal. After closing the gap to 20-13 at halftime, the 49ers intercepted Seattle on the first two drives of the second quarter, including one that was returned
for a touchdown. On the first series of the second half, CB Walt Harris tipped a QB Matt Hasselbeck pass that was picked off and returned 86 yards
for a touchdown by LB Patrick Willis to tie the game at 20-20. On the next series, DE Ray McDonald tipped a pass that was intercepted by Harris at
the Seattle 41-yard line to help set up the go-ahead touchdown. QB J.T. O’Sullivan completed back-to-back passes to WR Bryant Johnson to move the
49ers to the 22-yard line to help get into position for a two-yard touchdown run by RB Frank Gore to lift the 49ers in front, 27-20. Seattle responded
with a 15-play, 74-yard drive that ended in a touchdown to tie the game at 27-27. After both teams exchanged field goals to get the score tied at 30-30,
the 49ers forced Seattle to punt from its own 12-yard line and the 49ers began a drive at the Seattle 49-yard line with 1:09 to play in regulation. The team
moved to the 23-yard line with three seconds to play to set up a game-winning field goal attempt. Nedney’s 41-yard attempt sailed wide to the right to
send the game to overtime. The 49ers won the toss and elected to receive. O’Sullivan completed a 33-yard pass to WR Isaac Bruce on third-and-seven
and a five-yard pass to WR Arnaz Battle on a third-and-two situation to push the 49ers to the 23-yard line where Nedney connected on a 40-yard field
goal to give San Francisco the win. O’Sullivan registered his first 300-yard game, finishing 20-of-32 for 321 yards with one touchdown. Bruce had
his first 100-yard game as a member of the 49ers with 154 yards on four catches, including a 63-yard catch in the second quarter to help get the 49ers
in position for O’Sullivan’s three-yard touchdown pass to Johnson. Seattle jumped to a 14-0 first quarter after taking advantage of two miscues by the
49ers. LB Manny Lawson blocked a Seattle punt early in the game, however Seattle recovered the loose ball and converted it into a first down inside
San Francisco territory on a drive that ended with a Seattle touchdown. On the next series, Seattle forced Gore to fumble deep in Seahawks territory on
a play that resulted in a 10-yard touchdown return by DT Craig Terrill.

San Francisco - 31
Detroit - 13
at San Francisco, September 21, 2008
The San Francisco 49ers scored over 30 points for the second consecutive week to improve to 2-1 with a 31-13 victory over the visiting Detroit Lions.
RB Frank Gore gained 130 yards on the ground, and QB J.T. O’Sullivan threw for two touchdown passes to lead the 49ers to the win. The 49ers offense
chalked up 370 yards of total offense, including 182 yards on the ground. The 49ers defensive secondary shut down the Lions big receivers in front of
the home crowd at Candlestick. Detroit gained just 124 yards in the air, and receivers Roy Williams (two catches for 18 yards) and Calvin Johnson (four
catches for 40 yards) were non-factors. The 49ers scored on three straight possessions to take a 21-3 halftime lead. A 33-yard run by Gore positioned
the 49ers for O’Sullivan’s six-yard touchdown pass to WR Isaac Bruce for a 7-0 first quarter lead. An 18-yard run by WR Arnaz Battle on a reverse on
the next possession helped get the 49ers in Detroit territory where they took a 14-0 lead on a four-yard touchdown run by Gore. After spotting the Lions
a field goal, O’Sullivan connected on a 25-yard pass to WR Bryant Johnson followed by an 18-yard pass to WR Josh Morgan and then a 24-yard touch-
down pass to TE Delanie Walker for a 21-3 advantage. The only scoring in the third quarter was a field goal by Detroit to close the lead to 21-6 before
the 49ers had a ten-point fourth quarter to seal the victory. The 49ers moved to the Detroit one-yard line early in the fourth quarter and were faced with
a fourth-and-one situation. Head coach Mike Nolan elected to go for the touchdown rather than attempt a field goal. Eleven-year veteran CB/PR Allen
Rossum took a handoff and scored a touchdown on a one-yard run for 28-6 49ers lead. It was Rossum’s first NFL offensive play of his career. Detroit
responded on the next series when QB Jon Kitna scrambled on a fourth-down play to help set up a 34-yard touchdown pass to RB Rudi Johnson. The
Lions attempted an onsides kick on the ensuing drive that Battle picked up and returned 28 yards to the Detroit 12-yard line to set up a 25-yard PK Joe
Nedney field goal for a 31-13 lead. DE Justin Smith intercepted a Lions pass with 1:50 left to play to seal the victory for San Francisco.

Game 4
New Orleans - 31
San Francisco - 17
at New Orleans, September 28, 2008
RB Deuce McAllister’s hard running gave the New Orleans Saints the credible power running threat they needed to open deep throws for QB Drew
Brees in a 31-17 Saints victory at the Louisiana Superdome. Brees was 23-of-35 for 363 yards and had three scores, including touchdown passes of 47
yards to WR Robert Meachem and 33 yards to WR Lance Moore. Brees also set up scores with a 52-yard pass to Meachem and an 81-yard connection
with WR Devery Henderson. McAllister saw his most extensive action of the year, gaining 73 yards on 20 carries, including a one-yard touchdown
run in the fourth quarter. The 49ers had three turnovers, including two QB J.T. O’Sullivan passes that were intercepted by the Saints in the end zone.
Despite the big plays and turnovers, the 49ers still had a chance with four minutes left to play. Leading 28-9 with just over six minutes remaining, New
Orleans elected to go for the touchdown on a fourth-and-goal situation from the San Francisco one-yard line. S Michael Lewis forced a fumble that was
recovered by LB Patrick Willis following a pass from Brees to FB Olaniyi Sobomehin. The 49ers responded with a touchdown drive that was helped
by a 43-yard pass interference penalty against the Saints that gave the 49ers a first down at midfield. O’Sullivan completed a 19-yard pass to TE Vernon
Davis and a 36-yard pass to WR Arnaz Battle to get in position for a five-yard touchdown pass to WR Isaac Bruce to closed the Saints lead to 28-17
after the successful two-point play with 4:08 left in the game. The 49ers tried to get the ball back but failed to convert the onsides kick attempt, and
the Saints took advantage of the good field position with a field goal to seal the victory. After San Francisco took a 3-0 first quarter lead, New Orleans
countered with 21 points in the second quarter. Early in the quarter the 49ers had their first turnover when O’Sullivan was stripped of the ball on a sack
at the 49ers own 32-yard line. That play set up the Saints first touchdown, a five-yard pass from Brees to Moore. Brees had touchdown passes of 33
yards and 47 yards on the Saints next two series sandwiched between a 49ers field goal to take a 21-6 halftime lead. The 49ers opened the second half
with a 10-play, 48-yard drive into New Orleans territory but the Saints forced the 49ers to settle for a field goal. The 49ers drove deep into New Orleans
territory on their next two drives, but both times O’Sullivan was picked off while attempting a pass into the end zone. Battle had his first NFL 100-yard
day, finishing with 120 yards on seven receptions. RB Frank Gore gained 82 yards rushing on 16 carries for a 5.1-yard average, but the 49ers had to
move away from the run after falling behind 21-6.

New England - 30
San Francisco - 21
at San Francisco October 5, 2008
Three turnovers and an explosive 66-yard touchdown reception by New England WR Randy Moss helped the visiting Patriots beat San Francisco 30-21
to drop the 49ers to a 2-3 season record. New England had not traveled to Candlestick Park since 1995 and had never won in San Francisco in four at-
tempts. After a strong start that saw the 49ers take a 14-7 lead on two QB J.T. O’Sullivan touchdown passes, the Patriots turned to a ball control offense
that basically kept the 49ers offense off the field for the better part of the second and third quarters. New England dominated the time of possession,
holding the ball for 39:52 compared to the 49ers 20:08. The 49ers also had trouble getting first downs, going through a stretch of 36 minutes without
a first down during the second and third quarter. O’Sullivan threw three touchdown passes, but completed just 14 of 29 passes for 130 yards and was
intercepted three times. After striking first on a 16-yard touchdown pass from O’Sullivan to RB Frank Gore, the Patriots responded on their next drive
going deep with a 66-yard touchdown pass from QB Matt Cassel to Moss to tie the game at 7-7. A 38-yard pass from O’Sullivan to WR Isaac Bruce on
the ensuing series set up a six-yard pass from O’Sullivan to Bruce for a 14-7 advantage. New England controlled the clock for over ten minutes of the
second quarter and scored 10 points to take a 17-14 halftime lead. The Patriots went on a 13-play drive that took over six minutes and ended in a field
goal to close to 14-10 and then with just over three minutes to play in the first half took a lead they would not relinquish when RB Kevin Faulk capped a
12-play, 80-yard drive with a two-yard touchdown after taking a direct snap on a fourth-down play with nine seconds to play in the first half. S Rodney
Harrison picked off an O’Sullivan pass deep inside San Francisco territory in the third quarter to set up a Patriots touchdown, as New England expanded
it lead to 24-14. The 49ers had the ball for only 2:49 of the third quarter. After taking a 27-14 lead on a field goal early in the fourth quarter, the 49ers
offense finally was able to move the ball. The 49ers gained four first downs on a drive that went to the New England five-yard line where O’Sullivan
connected with Bruce for a score that made it 27-21 with over ten minutes still remaining in the game. New England sealed the victory on the ensuing
drive when they went on a five minute drive that ended in a 49-yard field goal to make it 30-21 with just over four minutes to play. O’Sullivan was in-
tercepted on one series and then when the 49ers got the ball back they were stopped on downs and the Patriots ran off the final 1:21 to get the victory.

game in the fourth quarter, making the score 27-21 with 10:29 left to play. His 88 career touchdowns moved him ahead
of Andre Reed (87) and tied him with Don Maynard for ninth all-time.

32 MICHAEL LEWIS
Safety Colorado 7th Year
Ht: 6-1 Wt: 222 Born: 4-29-80 FA in ‘07
2008 Season:
• Starting strong safety.
• Started at strong safety at Seattle (9-14) and recorded a sack late in the fourth quarter that forced the Seahawks to punt.
On third-down-16 with 1:23 remaining in the fourth quarter, Lewis dropped QB Matt Hasselbeck for seven yards to
force the Seahawks to punt from their 11-yard line, allowing the 49ers to receive a punt inside Seattle territory and help
set up a potential game-winning field goal. PK Joe Nedney’s 41-yard attempt sailed wide right to send the game into
overtime. Added one fumble recovery in the second quarter after CB Nate Clements forced a WR Billy McMullen
fumble deep in 49ers territory to prevent the score.
• Posted nine tackles, two passes defensed and forced a fumble on the 49ers own 1-yard-line at New Orleans (9-28). The
Saints decided not to kick a field goal and go for the touchdown on a fourth-down-and-one in the fourth quarter. Lewis
hit Saints rookie FB Olaniyi Sobomehin just before he crossed the goal line, forcing the fumble that the 49ers recovered
at the three-yard-line. The turnover lead to the only 49ers touchdown on the day.
