jetstream23 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 The 49ers were led by the defense all season. They then crumbled at the most crucial time of the year. After holding the Chiefs to 10 points for over 3 quarters of the game they gave up three touchdowns in less than 10 minutes. Yes, Kyle Shanahan‘s offense got stuck in the mud at the end but man, Saleh’s D really fell apart when it mattered most. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycdan Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 The Chiefs have shown a consistent pattern this playoffs of starting slow, then finding their groove. The problem for their opponents is, once they find their groove, they can score 21 points in 5 minutes without breaking a sweat. This is the closest thing we've seen to the Rams 'Greatest Show on Turf'. And just think for a moment what it would look like if Kareem Hunt were still on the team. As long as they keep a good OL in front of Mahomes, this is going to be a frightening team to play against. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggs Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 In fairness to the 49ers D, the way the game was called had a much more negative impact on the 49ers than it did on the Chiefs. There were no offensive holding calls in yesterdays game. On the critical 3rd and 15 with the Chiefs down 10, Bosa was clearly held which allowed the time for Mahomes to make the pass to Hill. The Pats won their first SB when the refs allowed the Pats defensive backs to hold the Rams WR. The Rams adjusted a little too late. The Rams of course were built on their WR speed. Huge impact on the game. SF is built on their defensive front. By allowing the OL's of both teams to hold, it clearly favored KC. Games are officiated differently but usually teams adjust and it's not a big factor. In this case and in the Rams case the way the games were officiated helped take away the primary strength of the lossing teams. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when Macc drafted two safeties in a row during an off season with a plethora of pro-bowl safeties available as FAs? Amazing memories. I still think Matthieu would've been a Jet if he hadn't knocked up Bowles' daughter. No way weak noodle Bowles could've handled that situation. Imagine disciplining Matthieu "you're suspending me?

I thought I was watching the Patriots, another team that can go 3 playoff games in a row without a holding call. Total advantage goes to the passing team & the QB that can move & that QB was Mahomes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsLife Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Up 20-10, 3rd & 15 with 7 minutes remaining - perhaps Saleh should've deployed a zero blitz. If it works KC punts, perhaps giving SF just enough of an edge to close it out. Or not, maybe SF offense continues sputtering and KC still pulls it out.

I think Jamal is great and am happy it looks like we won't be trading him for scratch-offs (draft picks). What is amusing is the total double standard though when it comes to players of other teams that do the same thing. Psst... I know this is tough to hear but players have much less loyalty to their team as fans do. Many have zero. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
