pre-christmas matchup in tennessee certainly was not. but san francisco asked for it was a short week for kyle shanahan and company against a very good but injured titans squad opening drive to be corrupt below deebo samuel love that combo. ruled out of the one. so no, they're not to worry forty-niners would capitalize to jeff wilson junior. from a yard out guest in and that made it 7. nothing niners. now the defense was great in the first happened. this one sampson cam with the sack here. the titans had only 55 yards of offense at the break. but jimmy garoppolo. but the chance to really take control of the game. misses a wide open. kyle use check in the end zone. instead just forces it to george kittle and yeah, it's going pick so golden opportunity gone. it was 10, nothing niners at the half. we go to the 3rd quarter growth low again throws it right to amani for his second interception of the game

return it to the niners 18 yard line and the titans castor. i didn't dante foreman pulled off this 3 yard touchdown run that made it a 10, 10 tie. a lot of happy titans fans there. so after a turnover on downs by the forty-niners its 4th quarter. now ryan tannehill to aj brown. he was unstoppable in the 2nd half, 18 yard touchdown pass 1710 titans 17 unanswered points for tennessee. brown had 11 receptions, a 145 yards and that touchdown. but there was still time less than 4 minutes left garoppolo to samuel. he splits the defense and his for a 56 yard gain to the titans. 6 yard line. not bad for deebo 9 receptions 5 carries and a 191 total yards in the game 2 plays later, jimmy g finds. brandon, i you for the touchdown to tie it. niners have life 1717 with 2 20 left in the game. that's a lot of time. ensuing titans

possession tannehill takes off of the mill. let him run that far. 23 yard gain to the forty-niners 31 and that would set up field goal. randy bullock from 44 yards out. yeah, that is good. just 4 seconds left on the clock. and so it was a desperation scramble play by the forty-niners after the kickoff was well short. the titans go on to win 20 to 17 and the niners denied a chance to maybe clinch a playoff berth. they needed a lot of help with the loss. but in any case, they fall to 8, 7, and host the texans to sundays from now. that alleges that time after the game, kyle shanahan dismissed the over confidence question but said it going 3 of 8 on 3rd down was the real culprit. >> and over confident coming in. i think we're pretty real to her at 10. we had a confident team. i think we are felt like we play well, with always come out strong. i think we did. but you still got to play good football in all phases and i hadn't

narrowed down right now. we didn't play enough on 3rd down. >> all right. meanwhile, the warriors were back at chase center after beating the kings on monday hosting the team that ended their season short of the playoffs last may, the memphis grizzlies steph curry and action getting his pre-game warmups in and check out the hops from staff. so see that too often. we'll pick up things in the 3rd quarter warriors down by one step right in the face of dillon brooks. plus is in the 3. and later in the 3rd step. with the no look pass to gary payton, the sec in gp 2 making his first warriors start. he hits the 3 of his own warriors with a close one point lead after 3 4th quarter dubs up by 3 step to otto porter junior back out to curry nothing but net. that's what they say. warriors building. some momentum now later on in the 4th dubs up 3 stepped. steph, things with a little stepback.

3 warriors extend their lead to 6 under 2 minutes to go. it's one o 4, one '02 warriors want us know anderson kicks it out to gary payton and he thinks the corner 3. 22 points for gp to an icing on the cake stepped guests around the defense drives. and lays it in. that would put it out of reach. 46 points for curry threes in the game for him as well. only need 6 more to reach 3,000. you believe that warriors win one 13 1 '04, we've got reinforcements at the game kron 4 sports director jason dumas live at chase center. jason, how great was it to see steph curry kind of come out of this little slump. if you can call it that, you did up 30 points on monday >> yeah. okay. like you said, you know, it's not for steph curry still better than 99% of the nba, but leading up to that record breaking night a couple weeks ago at madison square garden. he had been a

little tight hasn't been shooting. he's actually for the season and earth are under 40%. i'm sorry. 3 point shooting we're not used to seeing that from stepping. he committing lee said, hey, i've been a little tight. there's been a lot going on and he hasn't had these night 8 for 14 from beyond the arc. 46 points. he went crazy. another guy who went crazy standing right over there. gary payton, the second he had 22 points himself. but this win was really need it by this warriors team because they have a brutal schedule going forward. and you know, they're down 3 players. they got the nuggets the suns. they have a heat. a lot of great teams coming up. so to be able to get this one tonight in front of their home fans. it was a good one and their best players staff played like an mvp. yeah. you got to love it. when steph does step things. all right. thank you, jason, so much. we appreciate that.
