Huh? He didn't run out of bounds. He went down before he went out.

He stayed in to keep the clock running..even glanced over his shoulder so he knew he had time to get down before he could get shoved out of bounds.

He was in bounds, no question. It was a smart play by Gore. He knew the score, knew they were in FG range, and knew the time left on the clock. Most players would have continued to try to gain as much yardage as they could and taken it out of bounds. It was a major contributing factor in their win.

Marshawn Lynch should be taking notes on this to go back and redo that TD in the Falcons game with 30 seconds left. Slightly different situation, OK, but some parallels.

"Slightly" different? We needed a touchdown, the Niners needed just a FG. That's no small difference.
