Anyone who watched the Cowboys and Kellen's use of the 'Empty sets' knew right away what a disaster it was going to be. And shame on Kyle for not knowing NFL history....... 3rd down and Von Miller 3rd down and Aaron Donald..... 3rd down and Chris Jones....... and you dont have a RB/FB for a chip block to buy Purdy time to scamper. I lost most respect for Kyle on this playcall... theres zero excuse for it.
@@mysterxyzyeah, but this is a pretty spectacular fail. It’s not just a physical screwup. I mean, not only is Chris Jones, #95, coming in free; so is Justin Reid, #20 - the only thing between him and the QB is Jones’ huge ass. I cannot see wtf the plan is. Niners LG is showing some pull action to the right side, but that can’t be part of a protection strategy, he’s waaay too far away from Jones and Reid. It’s just a Chinese fire drill. This UA-cam guy’s being far too lenient. “I don’t like this play?” How about, “this is just totally fucked up here.”
The NFL is fake and rigged. That play is too stupid to explain away. People think NFL can't be rigged or players would talk. They make millions, they ain't talking. I never heard a wrestler say our sport is fake and rigged.
That is so painful to watch. Either that was a horrific play call or a complete failure to execute. But it's so simple to look at... And at the very least, what was the right guard thinking? He had one job to make sure Jones didn't get through. All Purdy needed was 2 or 3 seconds in the pocket and he would have hit his target. But yea, that totally cost them the game. Thanks for doing the breakdown.
As easy as you can say that Shanahan should have called something more straight forward, I can just as easily say that the offensive linemen did not execute the play to a normal standard when you allow defensive linemen in untouched. If you are going to completely miss blocks then any offensive play will be a problem.
Yeah but why get cute down there at that point. CMC fumbling should have been an indication to keep it simple. Also an empty backfield is doing 90% of the job for the defense by taking the deceptive element away from QB and allowing D to focus on pass
Purdy would have needed to make one hell of a side arm throw, cause that DE was assigned to play the passing lane. 3rd SB lose he has for not simply running the ball. Run behind TRENT on that 3&4 in the 4th
@@godhelpus2day ...cause it's Kyle. why stop running the ball in the 3rd quarter after you've been driving on the ground? cause Kyle outsmarts himself. he set up the first half so he could flip the script the second half. the only script that flipped was that he went from a winning formula to a losing formula. when he went back to the winning formula, it was too late.
This is a fair comments about missed PAT; problem is the entire game strategy of both teams would've changed resulting in different plays..........and who knows what may have happened. But the point is also solid in the sense that if it's made; the urgency and offensive strategy of Chiefs would've been different.
I think the blocked PAT was not a factor. It would've made the Chiefs realize they needed 6 to win, which they end up going for (and have a high probability of making) to win it in regulation. They settled for the OT play with the FG because they had confidence that momentum was on their side, and they were catching fire.
That was the deal killer play. Completely terrible O line defense blocking (as you just showed us). The Chiefs had 9 unblocked blitz plays in this game. It's a miracle Purdy was able to complete as many passes as he did. If we actually get a decent O line on the right side we could take Purdy to even a higher level! PLEASE DRAFT A RIGHT TACKLE!!!!
When the unblocked Blitzer is Chris Jones? Yea it's a huge mistake by Kyle. Like every big game. Hate Kyle. He killed this team with his horrible game management. Again. It's gonna be like the falcons decline the year after 28-3
Correction, the single most damaging play was the 49er punt returner who lacked the presence of mind to simply collapse on the ball rather than attempt to pick it up after it had glanced off another player even more guilty of poor judgement.
Yes. There are those times when a player needs to think about what is most important at the time and on a punt the most important thing is to catch the ball/get possesion. In that moment he had visions of a return and it cost them dearly. I see that same as Flowers fumble at the goal line, maintaining possesion was more important than scoring. It was going to be 1st and goal, were it 4th down yes dive, but maintaining possesion was the most important result at that time.
man, the punt returner didnt wanted to return at all. THe moron in front of him touched the ball, that became live. He tried to recover and in the spur he rose again. It isnt his fault. It's shannacunt the one that killed this team AGAIN. 3 superbowl played, 0 wins. He gifted 2 times to KC and 1 to NE (as OC, he played probably the worst second half in the history of the game in atlanta, the game was totally rigged....)
That was happening all day long. The Chiefs were blitz heavy. They should have kept someone in the backfield to pick up the blitzer which would have given Purdy time to find the open receiver.
if only they had a bigger back than CMC who specialized in blocking. it'd be a positive if that back could catch too so there would be option plays for him whenever he was in to keep the D guessing. too bad most teams don't run a big blocking RB anymore. Kyle should really look into a big blocking RB...
@@sumo813 nope, its a slide to the right. The center pulls left to sell the run and the entire line slides right except the right guard. Mckivitz is picking up the edge after the chip by kittle. RG buford was filling in for an injured feliciano and missed the assignment. Look at the guy RG actually blocks, hes blocking the same guy as the LG who is accurately sliding right.
This is a fantastic analysis man you are spot on. Niners got way too cute, if they gave purdy even a second more time to go through progressions he would have made the pass that he made all game.
@@ConcernedNinerFan As a Chiefs fan, I agree. They didn't go smash mouth enough. Shanahan must not have studied the film on probably the best defensive backfired in the NFL. He underestimated their shutdown ability, and the fact that they have done it all year. The formula for beating great defensive backfields, is to open holes, and force them to come up to make tackles on running backs. Then you can start throwing on them after they get tackle weary. It's a tried and true formula.
Very good & honest analysis - my perception is that Kyle Shanahan as "great" as he is advertised he is = Marv Levy & Dan Reeves - AKA could never win a SB so far he has lost 2 as a HC and one as a OC. Sooooo ????
@@mysterxyz it’s always the players - Kyle is perfect right - how about keep call throws instead of running the ball - three 3 and outs ??? Players call that play stop being a Shanafan - which is becoming Dan Reeves he had 2 SB haha 😂
Pathetic!!!leaving their top defender unblocked.Why can’t they just block their own guy that’s in front of them 🤦🏻♂️Atleast it would slow them down 1 sec more and purdy would of found the open man.2 running plays would of gotten us that td 💯
Not buying that at all your telling me that anytime on that offensive line is just going to go ok we don’t care about jones the entire gameplan was to always have eyes on Chris jones. Game was 100 percent rigged and it felt that way
Totally agree. Jones was unhindered, I’ll bet he was as surprised as anybody. Jennings is going to win his route if he has another second to work with. He looks back and the ball is already out of reach. Purdue really had no chance, if he tried to roll or run Jones was gonna swallow him up, he did right. Possibly if he doesn’t throw so far Jennings can make a play on the ball but that’s asking a lot. Burford, #74 just can’t allow Jones past him. I’d love to know what the actual play call was…
What happened on that play was Burford #74 wasn't as well-played or practiced as Jon Feliciano, who was hurt 2:28 left in the 4th quarter. Hence Feliciano's replacement Mr. Burford didn't know what he was doing and let K.C.'s Jones waltz right in to pressure Purdy. That cost us the touchdown in overtime..
absolute brutal error ... but but but, is a game of errors like any game --- niners gave up 139 yards on 2 KC drives to tie & win the game (64 +75 = 139) with NO STOPS === many brutal errors on defense !!! ... perhaps next year ???
@@brucewayne3602 the real error was Kyle calling an empty set on 3rd and 4.. keep #23 and #44 in the backfield for picking up blocks... have 2 WR and the TE as the 6th man blocking aka the old chip block and release option up the seam or speed out.. play.. Even if you have an OLine missing assignment.. you give Purdy TIME.. Time to scramble.. time to roll out, time to make an adlib ... Kyle screwed the pooch on this one and it really stinks..
@@TripAces Thankyou ---- absolutely correct --- all about giving Purdy a bit more time with options ... many errors though - the defense allowed 139 yards (64 + 75 ) on KC's tying and winning drives ... that alone tells me KC (most unfortunately) was deserving !!!
I am very impressed with you, young man. I’ve been watching football since the late 1970s and you have more of an in-depth knowledge than I do. You articulated that beautifully, making it understandable for even people who don’t know football as well as I do. I have subscribed. Looking forward to more of your insight. …
One team wins, the other loses in the final game that’s between TWO of the best teams. This game came down to one hell of an entertainment - that’s all you can ask for.
They cheaped out on the O line and it cost them a SB. Burford came in for Feliciano who got injured in the game. But he's got plenty of experience as a starter on this line so no excuse really. There were a number of plays that cost us - Mccloud not falling on the ball on the botched punt return, not kicking the ball in OT, man it was amateur hour out there.
ya team def folded out there luck can only get us so far and luck has always been on the chiefs side that team has the clutch gene and you cant give mahomes the ball back to win it in OT
Initially thought the RT screwed up, but this was RG Burford’s mistake. I agree with the presenter here. There are times when Kyle overthinks things and they’re going up a Chief D which is saying ‘I don’t care what they’re doing, we’re just coming, deal with it.”
Kyle S thinks he's too smart. The difference between McVay and Kyle S is McVay knew he had to get a GREAT QB to win SB. So Rams got Stafford. But Kyle thinks he can win with a good QB. He can scheme good guy to a win. 49ets Won't spend for great one and missed on T.Lance. Then Purdy shows his limits.Purdy can't make plays like Mahomes. 3 runs by Mahomes then throw for winning TD. Game over.
@@brianjungen4059Burrow does. Lamar does. Stroud does. Mahomes is a great talent but he’s not alone on top of some mountain like a certain weird sports pundit would make you believe. The difference in this game, and all season, was the Chiefs’ defense, especially the secondary. The Chiefs are the most complete team in football right now. This video got it right - the RG blew his job either through his own fault or the fault of the scheme.
The 49ers lost the Super Bowl before the season started by Saving money not signing Robbie Gold and Having a Rookie place Kicker on the team. Moody lost 4 games during the season and the Super Bowl!! Bottom line is the 49ers management saved around 4 million dollars signing Moody!!
What about the 3 and 5 pass play before they kicked the field goal? If they would have run the ball, that would have forced KC to take 1 of their 2 time outs left. This would have helped because to drive the length of the field on 1 time out opposed to 2 could have made it more difficult for them to tie the game and send it to OT. My view, but doesn’t matter now.
Lets be honest. Dont Fumble the Ball after that Punt. You probably win. And didnt they miss an Extra Point after a touchdown? Score that and you probably also win...
Or at the very least, FALL ON THE BALL instead of trying to scoop it up while running after it, which gave the Chiefs enough time to get there for the turnover. Costly mental mistakes.
The not converted 3rd and 4 after the 2 minute warning, with similar blown protection was more critical. With that conversion, and perhaps 2 more 1st downs, you can score the winning field goal with no time left for Mahomes, just like the Chief's did to Philly last year.
I agree. Something I saw before the game was the lineup of the two OL, and as soon as that game went into overtime I knew the Chiefs had it in their hands. If that extra point hadn't been blocked it may well have gone the other way.
Great analysis, when watching the game live I just thought dang they got to Purdy quick, but you pointed out exactly why. In addition, I think they should have tried to score a TD on 4th down as well.
The amount of people who act as if this "happened to Kyle" and he was an innocent bystander is hilarious. If your O line sucks, who made the decision to have these players on the roster? If the play call sucks, who called the play? It all rolls up to Kyle, why is it such a hard concept for people to grasp?
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” ― Theodore Roosevelt
Good analogy! That definitely hurt the 9’rs. The better team one in the end. 49’rs with Purdy will get another shot it some year. Chiefs are gonna have to be very hungry for a 3peat!
How do you let the KC best rusher go unblocked you ask? Let me sum it up in one ward. ( shanahan ) why would you pull all your left linemen to the left including your center just to pass…. To the right? Just do the basic blocking 101 and run the ball…. 🤬🤬🤬
Three or four different players on the team got hurt. That’s what caused them. And the referees not calling a single holding penalty on the Kansas City offense of line. I can’t mention how many times Bosa was tackled, and nothing was called. But, they had to get it for Mahomes because they want to take a lot of the emphasis away from Tom Brady.
I agree the refs swallowed their whistles while Bosa got tackled play after play. And the right guard on this play was a sub who completely blew his blocking assignment. The chiefs were going to be handed this game by the league’s refs unless they got their asses handed to them. Mahomes and Travis Swift had to be THE Super Bowl story!
Glad you went over this play! This was one of my biggest disappointments! I think they could've even done a Run play or some kind of trick play like they did with the first TD. What would've been beautiful is if they did a QB sneak where Purdy could run it in for the W. Anyway, it was a great game! At least it was exciting with 2 of the best teams!!
EXACTLY CORRECT. Nothing wrong with this play call --- and, I'm sure SF coaches and players agree --- but, it's like you said: the grd missed the assignment ... BIG TIME! Given JUST ANOTHER SECOND, Purdy could have had 1 or 2 receivers with real OPEN possibilities.
What? 1. Botched extra point? 2. Botched fielding of a punt? 3. Fumble inside KC 30 yard Line 4. Red Zone failure to score TD 5. Failure to sack Mahomes 6. Failure to cover 87 7. Defensive 3rd down failure 8. Adjustment failure at halftime 9. Failure to stop KC in the 4th 10. Overall game plan failure.
@@ConcernedNinerFan and that one writer Grant Cohn even called him out on it last year... Asked him if it's fault his over scheming always leave the QB open and vulnerable... I guess everyone forgot that chapter of Niners history
Wrong, Burford, who rode the bench the entire game before Feliciano went out because of injury, blew his assignment. It's basic and therefore, unforgivable in the situation where the game was on the line. Kyle wasn't out there blocking, but neither was Burford! Pitiful !
Yup. Last year Shanahan lost Purdy in the NFC Championship game because he left Hassaan Reddick have an unblocked run at Purdy. Here he let's Chris Jones have a free run at his QB. Shanahanigans.
Let's say this play led to a TD and Niners lead by 7. The Chief's subsequent TD drive occurred. Andy Reid likely had a special play for the 2 pt conversion. A 75% success rate for that play is reasonable. Niners would probably have lost SB anyway.
Marty Schottenheimer, Marv Levy, Marvin Lewis, Jim Mora, Dan Reeves, Jeff Fisher, Chuck KNOX, Sam Wyche, Kyle Shanahan... Do you keep going with Kyle or do you stop the pain now?
I'm a Niners fan. I wouldn't call Kyle "one of the best play callers in the game". Not by a long shot. Every game there are plays that I have to scratch my head over, usually too conservative. You're so right on the blocking scheme on that play. The Niners had enough blockers. Someone really screwed up on that play, in two places. They spend so much time practicing and are paid so much, yet can't they get this junk down? WTF? And OMG, the offsides and holdings. Don't get me started. A ref could call a penalty on any play if he wanted to. It's like players have too much to think about and forget the snap count, over and over. Every time I see a holding call I want to put their hands inside boxes and lock them. DON'T GRAB ONTO A DEFENDER'S SHOULDER PADS!!! That play is a good example of no matter who the quarterback is, he won't be successful if the O-line doesn't block.
I’m not a Niners fan but you being a Niners fan is biased, you probably watched every game and rue every missed opportunity all year. Every team had the same mistakes. The Niners did a great job all year. KC was just a little bit better in the end.
@@California_Poker "Every team had the same mistakes" is a point well taken. Screw-ups are a part of sports, and life. No blocker should ever run to where the ball is landing, however. That was a severe mistake. If you don't know where the ball is, find it before getting into the danger zone. KC didn't catch a punt with their ankle, Niners did. Play a little smarter and the Niners win that game. Though I hesitate to say that about any game where you face off against Mahomes.
For me the biggest mistake the 49ers made that cost them the SB was choosing to get the ball first in OT and only getting a FG that left Mahomes with the ball last. Never give Mahomes the last drive with the game on the line. He's a special QB. And I'm no KC fan either but I know you just don't do that.
This happened TWICE on 3rd Down. 1st was McDuffie Blitzing on 3rd Down and this play. The O-Line was not in SYNC most of the game especially when Feliciano went down. Injuries were HUGE in the 2nd Half to Dre Greenlaw & Feliciano. Absolutely contributed to broken COVERAGES in the 2nd Half.
Excellent analysis. Leaving Jones unblocked on that play is just inexplicable. Fumbling the punt return late in the 3rd, and leaving Mahomes with a one play touchdown didn't help their chances either.
What I liked the most was how you said that they should stay with the basic. Then you immediately went into a rather involved explanation on how to rework the situation but your solution still required the exact same player to block 95 (who didn’t). In the end, the failure belongs to the player who messed up his assignment. If he messed up THAT assignment, he could mess up your suggested assignment and 95 still comes through.
@@WayneHumbleif I remember correctly they didn’t use him much in the first Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs. Niners had more weapons this time around but still couldn’t get it done. I think the problem is Shanahan.
Giving Mahomes too many chances cost them the Super Bowl. When you give great players too many chances, they’re going to beat you nearly 100% of the time. Mahomes, Brady, Manning, Favre, Montana, Elway, etc… The defense held Mahomes to 19 points in regulation. That includes the 7 that they gave up on the muffed punt.
pacheco also fumbled, moody didn’t miss a FG but a PAT and mahomes threw an INT. ofc it was shanahan‘s playcalling that cost us the game. found the casual highlights watcher with no ball knowledge, lol
On any given play during the duration of a football game, there are dozens of “what if” situations happening that impact the outcome of the game, so it is simple minded to focus on one play, player, or event and say that “it” was the reason a team won or lost the game.
This play gives off Joe Burrow getting sacked by Aaron Donald vibes. wide receivers across the field wide open, but an offensive line that in this case blunder the protection scheme.
It easy to what you would've done after the fact. The fact is kyle sent in a play and everyone knows their individual assignment and is expected to get it done. If Burford sry ass block Chris Jones just for 1 second Jennings scores a td which would've forced kc to go for 2 if they would've scored a td.
And that's exactly what k.c. had been planning to do if the game went to overtime....kick off..get the ball second..go for the tb..then go for two. Wonder what trick play they had planned to use to get those two points. Guess we'll have to wait until next yrs SB
It's not actually the play that cost them the game. The decision to receive cost them the game because: If the 9ers scored on the play in this video, the chiefs get the ball back, and after they likely get a touchdown, they have several two pt conversion plays to pick from that the 9ers have never seen. They practice this scenario repeatedly. Chiefs win by one point, because the 9ers don't know how football works.
Do you ever recall what KS did to Atlanta Falcons in their 1st SB. He screwed up with so many bad calls in the last 6.5 minutes of the game. Worst one was a 3th down pass action instead of running the ball to set up a sure put away field goal. Falcons in that year had the best field goal kicker in NFL.
Kyle shanahan will be one of the best coaches that will never win a Super Bowl. Brock Purdy will also be one of the QBs that will never win a Super Bowl.
Yooo bro great video you really understand the game. I’m a chargers fan but I was rooting for the Niners and that play pissed me tf off. And the Chiefs kinda did the same play to win the game but they had their protection right. Leave me In man to man coverage for 3-5 seconds imma be open or give you a window to throw the ball to….up and coming QB’s take notes make sure your protection is tight so you can complete the play 💪🏾
I think they should have tried to score a td on 4th down. Field goal won’t do anything. You damn sure know the Chiefs are going to score a TD on their possession with Mahomes. 49’ers should have also elected to kick off instead of taking the ball in OT. I don’t think all the 49ers knew the new OT rules.
No what cost them the game was mahomes...if he's the last to touch the ball and it's up to him to win the game...well I think his record in play offs is 7 - 0.. Don't think anyone in football will forget when all he had was 13 seconds...
When they got past happy in the third quarter instead of running the ball and using up clock against the best quarterback in football which I think you have to blame on Kyle is as much as anything else why we lost the game
Think about how many times, Shannahan outschemed himself, this year he left Chris Jones unblocked, last year he left Haasan Reddick unblocked, the year before he left Aaron Donald unblocked… 3 guys that have no excuse ever to be unblocked.
At the end of the day, the 49ers just got outmatched by KC. When Mahomes appeared more energetic in the fourth quarter and OT, they appeared more tired, lol.
If Jones didn't make it there Justin Reid was virtually unblocked as well would have been there in another half tick. Knowing Purdy and the Niners probably would have botched it anyways.
This game was lost in regulation, not in OT. 49ers had a chance to run out the clock and kick a FG without letting Mahomes back on the field. Three minutes to go, first down on KC 40, KC has only 2 timeouts. CMC gets 5 yards on 1st down. Now, three downs to get five yards. You have the leading rusher in the league, and the best lineman in Trent Williams. A 1st down essentially wins the game (assuming Moody makes the FG). Instead, Shanahan does the same thing he did in his previous two Super Bowls. He throws it on 2nd down - no gain. Throws it 3rd down - incomplete. After the FG, KC has time to go down and kick the tying FG. Highly, highly stupid. Shanahan cost his team the Super Bowl. Again.
This game never should have went to Overtime...The 49er's had the ball with 2 minutes to go in regulation, they're driving and had a 3rd and 4 in the redzone. They threw an incompletion and stopped the clock with 1:54 and then they kicked a field goal. This gave KC their chance. They should have gave the ball to McCaffery on 3rd and 4 and if it they didn't make it...burn the clock to force KC to take a timeout, but if they picked up the first down the game is over. Either way the incompletion stopped the clock, and gave Mahomes time to force overtime. The 49er's gave this game away just like they did before...They had the top running back in the league and had 2 plays to get 4 yards. They could have took this game to 2 seconds and kicked the game winning field goal. This loss is on Kyle Shannahan!
You're right, everything you said...as a k. c.fan that's what I thought they would do..especially since their defense was worn down..I just knew if we got the ball back we would have less then 20 seconds, maybe less. Now I knew mahomes did it once before,.drove down in less then 13 seconds to get a field goal but didn't think they would let him do it again..felt so much better when k.c. got the ball with "all" that time...mahomes last to touch the ball in play offs....his record i believe is....7 - 0
Quarterbacks fault!!!! He has to recognize and make sure to audible and call out who has who and on a shift! Quarterback manages the game and a rookie cannot see this. Brick poody was a robot in this game and that is what they wanted him to do. No play changes at the line or any communication with the line or receivers. No talking at all by Brick! Failure all around!!
Yep. Deja vu. Same thing against LA too. How you can leave the best DT unblocked in the most critical game of the year is beyond explanation. But to be honest, I believe it was the injury to Greenlaw that sealed our fate. With him, we shut down the Chiefs offense. When he left, Kelse lit it up. Had him contained. Way it goes.
KC would have won regardless because they don’t make mistakes like that. San Francisco is an excellent team but they folded under pressure and made multiple mistakes in the game. Kansas City reminds me a lot of the patriots during their run when they would just wait for the other team, to make the big mistake.
If you’re gonna triple team somebody, make it jones. No idea why he assumed his teammate to the left would take him just fine and help the middle instead. Guess they didn’t study the defense enough

@@rfink222 lol the RG just blew it or he wanted mahomes to get another SB.
The NFL is fake and rigged. That play is too stupid to explain away. People think NFL can't be rigged or players would talk. They make millions, they ain't talking. I never heard a wrestler say our sport is fake and rigged.
That is so painful to watch. Either that was a horrific play call or a complete failure to execute. But it's so simple to look at... And at the very least, what was the right guard thinking? He had one job to make sure Jones didn't get through. All Purdy needed was 2 or 3 seconds in the pocket and he would have hit his target. But yea, that totally cost them the game. Thanks for doing the breakdown.
As easy as you can say that Shanahan should have called something more straight forward, I can just as easily say that the offensive linemen did not execute the play to a normal standard when you allow defensive linemen in untouched. If you are going to completely miss blocks then any offensive play will be a problem.
Facts, burford completely blew his assignment.
They could have made a different play but that doesnt mean they will score your not a psychotic.
Yeah but why get cute down there at that point. CMC fumbling should have been an indication to keep it simple. Also an empty backfield is doing 90% of the job for the defense by taking the deceptive element away from QB and allowing D to focus on pass
Purdy would have needed to make one hell of a side arm throw, cause that DE was assigned to play the passing lane. 3rd SB lose he has for not simply running the ball. Run behind TRENT on that 3&4 in the 4th
@@godhelpus2day ...cause it's Kyle. why stop running the ball in the 3rd quarter after you've been driving on the ground? cause Kyle outsmarts himself. he set up the first half so he could flip the script the second half. the only script that flipped was that he went from a winning formula to a losing formula. when he went back to the winning formula, it was too late.
You could easily say the blocked extra point was the play that cost them the Superbowl. It completely changed the game.
This is a fair comments about missed PAT; problem is the entire game strategy of both teams would've changed resulting in different plays..........and who knows what may have happened. But the point is also solid in the sense that if it's made; the urgency and offensive strategy of Chiefs would've been different.
I think the blocked PAT was not a factor. It would've made the Chiefs realize they needed 6 to win, which they end up going for (and have a high probability of making) to win it in regulation. They settled for the OT play with the FG because they had confidence that momentum was on their side, and they were catching fire.
i would say when they couldn't get into field goal range on one of their drives changed the game, but you get what I'm saying
that's a statement made by someone with a 75 IQ.
That was the deal killer play. Completely terrible O line defense blocking (as you just showed us). The Chiefs had 9 unblocked blitz plays in this game. It's a miracle Purdy was able to complete as many passes as he did. If we actually get a decent O line on the right side we could take Purdy to even a higher level! PLEASE DRAFT A RIGHT TACKLE!!!!
😅😅😅😅😅funniest I've heard
Unblocked blitzers doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the oline fault unless it isn’t overloading the protection. But I agree mistakes were made
When the unblocked Blitzer is Chris Jones? Yea it's a huge mistake by Kyle. Like every big game. Hate Kyle. He killed this team with his horrible game management. Again. It's gonna be like the falcons decline the year after 28-3
@@koodigocrxzy465in this case it's obvious it was the OL fault. Even Stevie Wonder can see that 😅😅
The left tackle looks like he’s off the line of scrimmage.
Correction, the single most damaging play was the 49er punt returner who lacked the presence of mind to simply collapse on the ball rather than attempt to pick it up after it had glanced off another player even more guilty of poor judgement.
I agree
I guess, TAKE YOUR PICK!!! Meant to Lose!
Yes. There are those times when a player needs to think about what is most important at the time and on a punt the most important thing is to catch the ball/get possesion. In that moment he had visions of a return and it cost them dearly.
I see that same as Flowers fumble at the goal line, maintaining possesion was more important than scoring. It was going to be 1st and goal, were it 4th down yes dive, but maintaining possesion was the most important result at that time.
man, the punt returner didnt wanted to return at all. THe moron in front of him touched the ball, that became live. He tried to recover and in the spur he rose again. It isnt his fault. It's shannacunt the one that killed this team AGAIN. 3 superbowl played, 0 wins. He gifted 2 times to KC and 1 to NE (as OC, he played probably the worst second half in the history of the game in atlanta, the game was totally rigged....)
That was happening all day long. The Chiefs were blitz heavy. They should have kept someone in the backfield to pick up the blitzer which would have given Purdy time to find the open receiver.
if only they had a bigger back than CMC who specialized in blocking. it'd be a positive if that back could catch too so there would be option plays for him whenever he was in to keep the D guessing. too bad most teams don't run a big blocking RB anymore. Kyle should really look into a big blocking RB...

This is a fantastic analysis man you are spot on. Niners got way too cute, if they gave purdy even a second more time to go through progressions he would have made the pass that he made all game.
Niners are physical in a cute way. Sounds like an oxymoron.
@@ConcernedNinerFan As a Chiefs fan, I agree.
They didn't go smash mouth enough. Shanahan must not have studied the film on probably the best defensive backfired in the NFL.
He underestimated their shutdown ability, and the fact that they have done it all year.
The formula for beating great defensive backfields, is to open holes, and force them to come up to make tackles on running backs. Then you can start throwing on them after they get tackle weary. It's a tried and true formula.
But chiefs still would of got ball kicked to them...even if they did get the td
Very good & honest analysis - my perception is that Kyle Shanahan as "great" as he is advertised he is = Marv Levy & Dan Reeves - AKA could never win a SB so far he has lost 2 as a HC and one as a OC. Sooooo ????
@@mysterxyz it’s always the players - Kyle is perfect right - how about keep call throws instead of running the ball - three 3 and outs ??? Players call that play stop being a Shanafan - which is becoming Dan Reeves he had 2 SB haha 😂
The blocked extra point is what forced overtime! That was the reason the 49'ers lost.
Yeah well they had their chance afterwards
Kyle not running the ball left with 2 min in regulation cost them the game, and he probably should have run more in the red zone in OT
But I wouldn't have covered, had a chance in OT.
They lost because they didn’t go for it on 4th and 4 at the 9 yard line.
@@Iam-od2ncThat was the biggest and most fatal mistake. Giving Mahomes back the ball with under 2 minutes in over time 😯😏

Obviously this is Shanahan's fault that Burford blocked the wrong guy
We used to call this "getting too dressy for the mud," when I was a RB in high school! @@waitingforthemoon9886
Buford on CJ is a total mismatch
Not buying that at all your telling me that anytime on that offensive line is just going to go ok we don’t care about jones the entire gameplan was to always have eyes on Chris jones.
Game was 100 percent rigged and it felt that way
Totally agree. Jones was unhindered, I’ll bet he was as surprised as anybody. Jennings is going to win his route if he has another second to work with. He looks back and the ball is already out of reach. Purdue really had no chance, if he tried to roll or run Jones was gonna swallow him up, he did right. Possibly if he doesn’t throw so far Jennings can make a play on the ball but that’s asking a lot. Burford, #74 just can’t allow Jones past him.
I’d love to know what the actual play call was…
What happened on that play was Burford #74 wasn't as well-played or practiced as Jon Feliciano, who was hurt 2:28 left in the 4th quarter. Hence Feliciano's replacement Mr. Burford didn't know what he was doing and let K.C.'s Jones waltz right in to pressure Purdy. That cost us the touchdown in overtime..
bingo
Watch your mouth
absolute brutal error ... but but but, is a game of errors like any game --- niners gave up 139 yards on 2 KC drives to tie & win the game (64 +75 = 139) with NO STOPS === many brutal errors on defense !!! ... perhaps next year ???
@@brucewayne3602 the real error was Kyle calling an empty set on 3rd and 4.. keep #23 and #44 in the backfield for picking up blocks... have 2 WR and the TE as the 6th man blocking aka the old chip block and release option up the seam or speed out.. play..
Even if you have an OLine missing assignment.. you give Purdy TIME.. Time to scramble.. time to roll out, time to make an adlib ...

You articulated that beautifully, making it understandable for even people who don’t know football as well as I do. I have subscribed. Looking forward to more of your insight. …
Probably best to keep it simple considering Feliciano was inured. Wasn't he the starting right guard? Burford was the backup and he blew the play.
and the holding call against the substitute TE before Kittle checking back in was so annoying
We don’t need players that’s not gon be ready when needed. Cost us a potential SB
One team wins, the other loses in the final game that’s between TWO of the best teams. This game came down to one hell of an entertainment - that’s all you can ask for.
Funny how that drama keeps coming every big game. Perhaps its because dopes like you don't see the scripted BS.
They cheaped out on the O line and it cost them a SB.
Burford came in for Feliciano who got injured in the game. But he's got plenty of experience as a starter on this line so no excuse really.
There were a number of plays that cost us - Mccloud not falling on the ball on the botched punt return, not kicking the ball in OT, man it was amateur hour out there.
ya team def folded out there luck can only get us so far and luck has always been on the chiefs side that team has the clutch gene and you cant give mahomes the ball back to win it in OT
As architect of 3 top leads blown in SB history, this coach was MVP of every game.
Several teams have come back from 10 down. Even happened in the 80s. This isn't the 80s. 10 points ain't shit.
Initially thought the RT screwed up, but this was RG Burford’s mistake. I agree with the presenter here. There are times when Kyle overthinks things and they’re going up a Chief D which is saying ‘I don’t care what they’re doing, we’re just coming, deal with it.”

Kyle S thinks he's too smart. The difference between McVay and Kyle S is McVay knew he had to get a GREAT QB to win SB. So Rams got Stafford. But Kyle thinks he can win with a good QB. He can scheme good guy to a win. 49ets Won't spend for great one and missed on T.Lance. Then Purdy shows his limits.Purdy can't make plays like Mahomes. 3 runs by Mahomes then throw for winning TD.

This video got it right - the RG blew his job either through his own fault or the fault of the scheme.
The 49ers lost the Super Bowl before the season started by Saving money not signing Robbie Gold and Having a Rookie place Kicker on the team. Moody lost 4 games during the season and the Super Bowl!! Bottom line is the 49ers management saved around 4 million dollars signing Moody!!
Gould was going to retire regardless

He had an excellent game!!!
He was +30,000 to win SB MVP!!! Wow, would there have been some happy bettors at the sportsbook!
Crazy how the chiefs had poor defense and did a very poor job tackling Jennings
What about the 3 and 5 pass play before they kicked the field goal? If they would have run the ball, that would have forced KC to take 1 of their 2 time outs left. This would have helped because to drive the length of the field on 1 time out opposed to 2 could have made it more difficult for them to tie the game and send it to OT. My view, but doesn’t matter now.
Lets be honest. Dont Fumble the Ball after that Punt. You probably win. And didnt they miss an Extra Point after a touchdown? Score that and you probably also win...
Or at the very least, FALL ON THE BALL instead of trying to scoop it up while running after it, which gave the Chiefs enough time to get there for the turnover. Costly mental mistakes.
It was the Taylor Swift "HEX"‼️
The not converted 3rd and 4 after the 2 minute warning, with similar blown protection was more critical. With that conversion, and perhaps 2 more 1st downs, you can score the winning field goal with no time left for Mahomes, just like the Chief's did to Philly last year.
Good analysis. This play was blown by the OL not doing their assignments.
I agree. Something I saw before the game was the lineup of the two OL, and as soon as that game went into overtime I knew the Chiefs had it in their hands.
If that extra point hadn't been blocked it may well have gone the other way.
That's how Jimmy G got hurt in the Miami game over a year ago..
I agree with your assessment on this particular play but missing the PAT is what cost the 49’rs the Super Bowl.
Burford screwed up that's what I see. Protection would have been good if burford did his job right
Theres a reason he lost his starting Job
Great analysis, when watching the game live I just thought dang they got to Purdy quick, but you pointed out exactly why. In addition, I think they should have tried to score a TD on 4th down as well.

Very enlightening. I would love to hear Kyle's response to this.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
― Theodore Roosevelt
Exactly!
Good analogy! That definitely hurt the 9’rs.
The better team one in the end. 49’rs with Purdy will get another shot it some year. Chiefs are gonna have to be very hungry for a 3peat!
I predicted if the Niners lost it would be because of the o-line. That's what happened.

No ! the real reason is the last KC call "Tom & Jerry right yellow" which allows Hardman to score a TD. See Shanahan face just after ! 😊
Feliciano getting hurt mattered also
Yeah, that's when everything started to unravel. Burford and McKivitz got to go.
Three or four different players on the team got hurt. That’s what caused them. And the referees not calling a single holding penalty on the Kansas City offense of line. I can’t mention how many times Bosa was tackled, and nothing was called. But, they had to get it for Mahomes because they want to take a lot of the emphasis away from Tom Brady.
I agree the refs swallowed their whistles while Bosa got tackled play after play. And the right guard on this play was a sub who completely blew his blocking assignment. The chiefs were going to be handed this game by the league’s refs unless they got their asses handed to them. Mahomes and Travis Swift had to be THE Super Bowl story!
Glad you went over this play! This was one of my biggest disappointments!
I think they could've even done a Run play or some kind of trick play like they did with the first TD.
What would've been beautiful is if they did a QB sneak where Purdy could run it in for the W.
Anyway, it was a great game! At least it was exciting with 2 of the best teams!!

Let's say this play led to a TD and Niners lead by 7. The Chief's subsequent TD drive occurred. Andy Reid likely had a special play for the 2 pt conversion. A 75% success rate for that play is reasonable. Niners would probably have lost SB anyway.

You are spot on, when i saw the replay, was like of all players to leave unblocked " Chris Jones " the KFC Interior dominant Defensive player...😮
Lol, Chris Jones doesn't work for Colonel Sanders. 🤣
The 49ers beat themselves !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm a Niners fan. I wouldn't call Kyle "one of the best play callers in the game". Not by a long shot. Every game there are plays that I have to scratch my head over, usually too conservative.
You're so right on the blocking scheme on that play. The Niners had enough blockers. Someone really screwed up on that play, in two places. They spend so much time practicing and are paid so much, yet can't they get this junk down? WTF? And OMG, the offsides and holdings. Don't get me started. A ref could call a penalty on any play if he wanted to. It's like players have too much to think about and forget the snap count, over and over. Every time I see a holding call I want to put their hands inside boxes and lock them. DON'T GRAB ONTO A DEFENDER'S SHOULDER PADS!!!
That play is a good example of no matter who the quarterback is, he won't be successful if the O-line doesn't block.
Hey Reid also had several called plays that went no where....just saying...
I’m not a Niners fan but you being a Niners fan is biased, you probably watched every game and rue every missed opportunity all year. Every team had the same mistakes. The Niners did a great job all year. KC was just a little bit better in the end.
@@California_Poker "Every team had the same mistakes" is a point well taken. Screw-ups are a part of sports, and life.
No blocker should ever run to where the ball is landing, however. That was a severe mistake. If you don't know where the ball is, find it before getting into the danger zone. KC didn't catch a punt with their ankle, Niners did. Play a little smarter and the Niners win that game.
Though I hesitate to say that about any game where you face off against Mahomes.
The line was supposed to slide to the inside ... inside is priority in pass blocking especially to contain a blitz 💯
Rams fan here. No Shanahan isn't a better play caller than Andy Reid. Add to that, Reid's in better sync with his quarterback
I bet Jones was shocked he had a free run at the QB.
For me the biggest mistake the 49ers made that cost them the SB was choosing to get the ball first in OT and only getting a FG that left Mahomes with the ball last. Never give Mahomes the last drive with the game on the line. He's a special QB. And I'm no KC fan either but I know you just don't do that.
It’s hard to play in Shanahan system without getting injured
This is a huge problem, every year....
This happened TWICE on 3rd Down. 1st was McDuffie Blitzing on 3rd Down and this play. The O-Line was not in SYNC most of the game especially when Feliciano went down. Injuries were HUGE in the 2nd Half to Dre Greenlaw & Feliciano. Absolutely contributed to broken COVERAGES in the 2nd Half.
THANK GOD, PEOPLE THAT STILL KNOW FOOTBALL
Excellent analysis. Leaving Jones unblocked on that play is just inexplicable. Fumbling the punt return late in the 3rd, and leaving Mahomes with a one play touchdown didn't help their chances either.
Man of all people not to get blocked. They double teamed the middle LB? That was the game right there.
That middle LB should have been whacked just by the guy in front of him like we usually do in rugby.
What I liked the most was how you said that they should stay with the basic. Then you immediately went into a rather involved explanation on how to rework the situation but your solution still required the exact same player to block 95 (who didn’t). In the end, the failure belongs to the player who messed up his assignment. If he messed up THAT assignment, he could mess up your suggested assignment and 95 still comes through.

@@WayneHumbleif I remember correctly they didn’t use him much in the first Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs. Niners had more weapons this time around but still couldn’t get it done. I think the problem is Shanahan.
Giving Mahomes too many chances cost them the Super Bowl. When you give great players too many chances, they’re going to beat you nearly 100% of the time. Mahomes, Brady, Manning, Favre, Montana, Elway, etc… The defense held Mahomes to 19 points in regulation. That includes the 7 that they gave up on the muffed punt.
That right side has been a problem for a while now. Shanahan chokes once again. The quest for 6 still lives on! Get em next season 9ers!!!

@javierfernandez8889 *refs
Fantastic breakdown--what a great example of what a fan misses if he/she just follows the ball during live action.
Great analysis. The 49ers of Joe Montana also had great coaching. This shows shanahan is over-rated.
On any given play during the duration of a football game, there are dozens of “what if” situations happening that impact the outcome of the game, so it is simple minded to focus on one play, player, or event and say that “it” was the reason a team won or lost the game.
Could have dumped that off to Kittle.
Form a Dallas fan,,,,,🗣️I love it everytime the Niners lose the SB! The new Bills!
This play gives off Joe Burrow getting sacked by Aaron Donald vibes. wide receivers across the field wide open, but an offensive line that in this case blunder the protection scheme.
They Fired the Defensive Coordinator after the game as a Scapegoat and he clearly wasn't the Problem
It easy to what you would've done after the fact. The fact is kyle sent in a play and everyone knows their individual assignment and is expected to get it done. If Burford sry ass block Chris Jones just for 1 second Jennings scores a td which would've forced kc to go for 2 if they would've scored a td.
And that's exactly what k.c. had been planning to do if the game went to overtime....kick off..get the ball second..go for the tb..then go for two.
Wonder what trick play they had planned to use to get those two points. Guess we'll have to wait until next yrs SB
It's not actually the play that cost them the game. The decision to receive cost them the game because: If the 9ers scored on the play in this video, the chiefs get the ball back, and after they likely get a touchdown, they have several two pt conversion plays to pick from that the 9ers have never seen. They practice this scenario repeatedly. Chiefs win by one point, because the 9ers don't know how football works.
It's called Kyle Shanahan will never win a championship because he chokes when it's critical and you're looking at it AGAIN.
So the player screws up but it’s the coach’s fault?
Do you ever recall what KS did to Atlanta Falcons in their 1st SB. He screwed up with so many bad calls in the last 6.5 minutes of the game. Worst one was a 3th down pass action instead of running the ball to set up a sure put away field goal. Falcons in that year had the best field goal kicker in NFL.
Kyle shanahan will be one of the best coaches that will never win a Super Bowl. Brock Purdy will also be one of the QBs that will never win a Super Bowl.

Leave me In man to man coverage for 3-5 seconds imma be open or give you a window to throw the ball to….up and coming QB’s take notes make sure your protection is tight so you can complete the play 💪🏾
O line was terrible all night pass blocking, abd committing penalties.
I think they should have tried to score a td on 4th down. Field goal won’t do anything. You damn sure know the Chiefs are going to score a TD on their possession with Mahomes. 49’ers should have also elected to kick off instead of taking the ball in OT. I don’t think all the 49ers knew the new OT rules.
Nahhh ! ! ! What cost them the game was the soft defense they used after the FG...They should of stayed aggressive
No what cost them the game was mahomes...if he's the last to touch the ball and it's up to him to win the game...well I think his record in play offs is 7 - 0..
Don't think anyone in football will forget when all he had was 13 seconds...
@bobfrantz534 Not even close..You forget what Tampa Bay did to Mahomes in the Superbowl...You can't play a soft defense and expect to win..
It was more than just ONE play. Chris Jones wrecked the whole game from start to finish.
Excellent football commentary analysis of the game.
When they got past happy in the third quarter instead of running the ball and using up clock against the best quarterback in football which I think you have to blame on Kyle is as much as anything else why we lost the game
pass not past
Even with the instant pressure, the target was open, but he threw it 12ft high lol. We all know Mahomes would've side-armed it perfectly for the td 😅
Why does everybory have to preface thst shannahan is one of thr best playcsllers. Hes a loser, and crumbles when it matters like all loser do
I know right. They keep hyping him up cause of his daddy, but he chokes.
Think about how many times, Shannahan outschemed himself, this year he left Chris Jones unblocked, last year he left Haasan Reddick unblocked, the year before he left Aaron Donald unblocked… 3 guys that have no excuse ever to be unblocked.
At the end of the day, the 49ers just got outmatched by KC. When Mahomes appeared more energetic in the fourth quarter and OT, they appeared more tired, lol.
If Jones didn't make it there Justin Reid was virtually unblocked as well would have been there in another half tick. Knowing Purdy and the Niners probably would have botched it anyways.
This game was lost in regulation, not in OT. 49ers had a chance to run out the clock and kick a FG without letting Mahomes back on the field. Three minutes to go, first down on KC 40, KC has only 2 timeouts. CMC gets 5 yards on 1st down. Now, three downs to get five yards. You have the leading rusher in the league, and the best lineman in Trent Williams. A 1st down essentially wins the game (assuming Moody makes the FG). Instead, Shanahan does the same thing he did in his previous two Super Bowls. He throws it on 2nd down - no gain. Throws it 3rd down - incomplete. After the FG, KC has time to go down and kick the tying FG. Highly, highly stupid. Shanahan cost his team the Super Bowl. Again.
It looks like tightend was open but 95 was coming fast and furious and forced him to throw it faster than he wanted to.
I enjoyed watching the breakdown in your simple to follow illustration
the play happened so fast it’s hard to follow.
This game never should have went to Overtime...The 49er's had the ball with 2 minutes to go in regulation, they're driving and had a 3rd and 4 in the redzone. They threw an incompletion and stopped the clock with 1:54 and then they kicked a field goal. This gave KC their chance.
They should have gave the ball to McCaffery on 3rd and 4 and if it they didn't make it...burn the clock to force KC to take a timeout, but if they picked up the first down the game is over.
Either way the incompletion stopped the clock, and gave Mahomes time to force overtime.
The 49er's gave this game away just like they did before...They had the top running back in the league and had 2 plays to get 4 yards. They could have took this game to 2 seconds and kicked the game winning field goal. This loss is on Kyle Shannahan!
You're right, everything you said...as a k. c.fan that's what I thought they would do..especially since their defense was worn down..I just knew if we got the ball back we would have less then 20 seconds, maybe less. Now I knew mahomes did it once before,.drove down in less then 13 seconds to get a field goal but didn't think they would let him do it again..felt so much better when k.c. got the ball with "all" that time...mahomes last to touch the ball in play offs....his record i believe is....7 - 0
This play didn't cost them the Super Bowl. The muffed punt and giving Mahomes a super short field for an easy touchdown did.
Nailed it. And I like the thought of keeping it simple at times.
Quarterbacks fault!!!! He has to recognize and make sure to audible and call out who has who and on a shift! Quarterback manages the game and a rookie cannot see this. Brick poody was a robot in this game and that is what they wanted him to do. No play changes at the line or any communication with the line or receivers. No talking at all by Brick! Failure all around!!
Basically, the team that made the most mistakes lost. I like both teams but was rooting for the underdogs, the Chiefs.
Two fumbles & one missed extra point were bigger factors in the loss & the failure to cover Kelce in second half.
Well the Chiefs weren't exactly perfect either. I mean Mahomes throwing a pic ain't too cool. But the Niners did not capitalize on it.
Yep. Deja vu. Same thing against LA too. How you can leave the best DT unblocked in the most critical game of the year is beyond explanation. But to be honest, I believe it was the injury to Greenlaw that sealed our fate. With him, we shut down the Chiefs offense. When he left, Kelse lit it up. Had him contained. Way it goes.
KC would have won regardless because they don’t make mistakes like that. San Francisco is an excellent team but they folded under pressure and made multiple mistakes in the game. Kansas City reminds me a lot of the patriots during their run when they would just wait for the other team, to make the big mistake.
If you’re gonna triple team somebody, make it jones. No idea why he assumed his teammate to the left would take him just fine and help the middle instead. Guess they didn’t study the defense enough
