I didn't see the game - given the events of the Tuck Rule game, I'm glad I didn't have to see another game with a controversial officiating decision handing a game to the Pats.

But as a 49ers fan, I did want to say thanks to Belichik for the QB - Garoppolo is playing well for us.

Garoppolo is an excellent QB and I think part of the motivation to trade him was that he deserved to play but would have potentially never gotten to do so with the Patriots. The Patriots won't have to play against him for at least three years until the NFC West comes around again in the AFC East opponent rotation (barring a Super Bowl appearance and discounting preseason games that might be scheduled) so it isn't likely to come back to bite them.
