Getting the ball 3rd only works if both teams exchange FGs. Then everyone would say Shanahan was a genius. That's literally the only scenario though.
Getting the ball 3rd doesn't make sense if both teams score a TD, because a reasonable mind would infer the Chiefs are going for two with Mahomes instead of putting a tired defense back on the field with the opposition only needing a FG. |

Don't worry. As soon as this happens they'll come up with some bullshit rule that says if a team takes the lead with a 2 point conversion, the other team gets a chance at a 2-point conversion on an untimed down, and the teams have to exchange 2-point conversion chances until one fails.

It’s extra funny that the Chiefs deciding to go for 2 if the 49ers would’ve scored a TD almost completely negates that strategy.
The only way it’s an advantage to take the ball is if both teams kick field goals.

I just had to tell my 8th graders to shut up.
I want to say "How the **** can you script a game and get another team to lose a SB?"

I don't think it mattered what Rat Jr. did. No way Mahomes was losing that game at that point. However, I do sorta get the logic. Taking the ball first is the only way to set yourself up to have two shots to win.
1. Score any points and although it felt inevitable that Pat and the boys would do what they did, a tipped ball, a brutal penalty, a stupid fumble, a guy running backwards 10 yards after catching a pass (oh wait),etc. There is at least a universe that exists where the Chiefs could've not scored. 2. The oft mentioned if the Chiefs would've been held to a FG attempt (only chance was a long 4th down in FG range. Chiefs were going for 4th and 4 at the Niners 20 or whatever, I bet) then the Niners would've had the elusive 3rd posession. All things considered I probably would've kicked off and said to myself "**** it, stop them here and go win or bust" but I get why he did what he did. Again, not sure it mattered. |

Sounded like Lennie Small out there. If I were one of his teammates that would really piss me off. If he was focused on the ball and the game and playing through the whistle he would've recovered that. |
