You are right on both counts, but it tells you a bit about him. The great QBs take risks and occasionally they throw INTs, but the INT doesn't faze them and they keep coming back. Watch some SF games from this year. JG never looks fazed. Never gets down. He just keeps coming. I don't think he's "great" yet, but he has the demeanor of a great QB.
Regarding Shanahan's playcalling, why would you pass when you're running the ball down the throat of your opponent and they can't stop you? Neither the Vikings nor the Packers could stop the 49ers running game.
