Ya, I can't really kill Kyle for that...I mean whoever gets the ball, the object is to score a TD....spags got SF with that blitz on 3rd down and Purdy wasnt able to connect on that TD throw....what are you going to do there? Go for it on 4th down and potentially lose the SB? I still think its better to get the ball, score, then put all the pressure on the other team to then have to score.....Now unfortunately for Kyle, he's playing against Mahomes who finally heated up...so either way, he was probably fucked.
I don't know...I can't think of anything that was overly egregious.....Fuck nuts kicker blowing that XP, that was BAD. The muffed punt by SF was costly...but KC had a fumble that led to a TD so they sort of offset as the game went along. I kept thinking in the first half..."SF is dominating this game so far....but they have 3 fucking points to show for it, so its means jack shit" As far as abandoning the run, I mean they did get that late TD with a WHOLE lot of running...then the following FG drive where sadly for them, they couldnt convert that 3rd down....that was a killer.
I thought it was an overall good game...you have some good defense being played, good offense, interesting things on special teams...longest FG ever in a SB, muffed punt return....Both QBs played really well...I mean that said...Purdy is good, but he's no Mahomes. And that OT was pretty awesome....especially with Mahomes throwing that final TD with 3 seconds left on the OT clock....which I know OT doesnt end, but im guessing (I have never seen it) it would be like the end of a QTR with 17 commercials and flipping the field....not what you want if you are KC and you have SF on the ropes.
