Live discussion: NFL Slam with Mark and Sam

This week’s Monday edition of our NFL Google+ hangout -- “NFL Slam with Mark and Sam,” starring Times NFL columnist Sam Farmer and Mark Thompson of “Mark and Brian” radio fame -- will start at 11:30 a.m. and cover a host of topics. One will probably be the tie between the St. Louis Rams and the San Francisco 49ers. As Farmer wrote on Sunday:

“It was a comedy of errors on both sides when St. Louis went to overtime at San Francisco.

“On the Rams’ opening possession of the extra period, an 80-yard pass play to Danny Amendola was wiped out by an illegal formation.

“When the 49ers got the ball back, they blew a chance to win when the typically accurate David Akers missed a 41-yard field-goal attempt.

“St. Louis got the ball back, drove into position to win with a long field goal, and rookie sensation Greg Zuerlein drilled a 53-yarder … but the field goal was negated by a delay-of-game penalty. The Rams were pushed back five yards, and Zuerlein missed wide.

“The game ultimately ended at 24-24, the league’s first deadlock since Philadelphia played to a tie in Cincinnati four years ago.
