The 49ers got a Christmas gift from the officials early in Monday’s game vs. the Ravens. An official tripped in the end zone while 49ers DE Chase Young was tracking down Ravens QB Lamar Jackson. Jackson stumbled over the official and threw the ball to nobody, drawing an intentional grounding penalty in the end zone. That opened the scoring with a 49ers safety thanks to the flag on the QB behind the goal line. That made it 2-0, San Francisco.
