We are the opposite of the Bill Walsh 80's 49ers. Back then our offense seemed almost automatic at the end of games and in those situations.

Andy Reid had his team coached up and ready to go when it turned into situational football. Reid wasn't drinking during the O.T rules meeting with the officials LOL.

Andy is also about 4 to 8-ish years to retirement. Kyle's 22 years younger than Reid and Reid needs overtime (same with Bill Belichick) to beat Kyle.

Andy beat him twice, didn't need overtime the first time. But he did have to come from behind to beat Kyle both times, so I guess thats how the Bengals fans feel about Bill Walsh; "HE had to come from behind to beat us in the super bowl, so we are great too!". What does age have to do with anything from a coaching standpoint?

The Rams coach is only 38 years old and he has already won a super bowl. And he had to do it at the end of the game in come back fashion. Now I believe that game was rigged but hey, he won the super bowl LOL.

Age is a big factor favoring Kyle vs Reid and Bellichick. Bill Bellichick didn't even get to his first superbowl until age 49. Reid didn't get to his first superbowl till age 49, and guess what - he lost that game.

Kyle's been to three superbowls, and he's *still* 4 years younger that both coaches currently when compared to their (Reid and Bellichick's) ages when they reached their respective *first* superbowls.

P.s. Bill Walsh didn't get to his first superbowl till age 50.

See; Sean McVay & Mike Tomlin.

They both won it at 36 years old.

Walsh got his first HC job at 47, so he got right to it.

Sean and Tomlin also lost a super bowls. Kyle dominates Sean and Tomlin's not sniffed a Superbowl in more than a decade.

Kyle also dominated McVay in the regular season, yet McVay has a ring.

Kyle is a great regular season Head Coach at this point. He's also good in the playoffs, until...

I think Kyle is going to be - eventually - a fine Super Bowl winning head coach. I just think that, because I'm an optimist. I also think that because he's getting better and better every year. He's gotten closer and closer in each Superbowl. I'm sure that's *not* going to make you any feel better, but it does make *me* feel better.

Using Glory's logic, a sixth grader in Hoboken NJ fails his math test. It's the parents fault? NO? It's the teachers fault, NO. It's the Principals fault. NO It's the fault of the leader of the school board's fault. Nope. It would be the fault of the Federal Dept of Education as they sit atop the organizational chart. But wait, there is an even higher chart. IT's the fault of the President of the United States. Now if you are of a religious vein then the fault must go to the Leader of your religion of choice. Right, Glory? I mean, its all right there in the charts, correct?

Outside of Reid who was gifted a generational QB and letting do whatever the f**k he wants…he would hate any HC in the NFL. Tomlin won a SB with someone else's team. He hasn't done s**t in 15 yrs since. Harbs hasn't won s**t in over a decade and being gifted a multiple time MVP.

people can't grasp how hard it is to consistently win games let alone to win a Super Bowl.

Walsh was #1, that doesn't mean every other HC after him sucks. Thinking like that is stupid.

Shanahan is the Head Coach & the O.C, who put Burford (who was unprepared) out on the field in that situation?

I don't know why you see Andy Reid as a genius because his O-Line was holding? There are many other things to point in that regard. Nah, I know you were being sarcastic LOL

Well, Feliciano was injured so Kyle put in the next best guy they had - which was Burford. Personally, I think it's been more *injuries* that have stopped Kyle from going all the way in the Playoffs/Superbowl than anything else. Chris Jones dominated Mike Person in the first Superbowl matchup, and Chris Jones dominated Burford in the second rematch. Again, but for Feliciano's injury, Burford would not have been in the game.

Only reason McVay even won is because s**tty Jimmy was playing with a thumb and shoulder injury in the NFCC…but you know players have zero impact on winning and losing. That victory was solely because of McVay.

Was much more fun last year with the QB wars. These arguments are less fun and impressively more stupid.

That injury *REALLY* killed our chances to stop Patrick in that last drive.

Very good post! I have been waiting for this response hence me stating over and over again that Shanahan is responsible for EVERYTHING football related with our team. I had to throw in that little nugget, Good or Bad, for someone to catch on but I can take that.

If he's credited for CMC's TD's he's also responsible for the fumbles. If he's credited for the great offense, defense, and ST game plans he's also responsible for the ones that fail. If he's responsible for Robert Saleh, Mike McDaniel, and Demeco Ryans success then he is responsible for Steve Wilks failure.

NO EXCUSES

Well, Wilks was fired after the Superbowl. There is an argument to be made that it was *Wilk's* fault for letting Patrick score on that last drive vs Kyle. I dunno if you'll buy that argument though. Probably not.

Rams had the better team overall. Where were the 49ers better in terms of the roster? Linebacker? Running back perhaps? Anything else?

It was an awesome job to have that team a couple plays away from a SB appearance. Not a choke job that the team with better players pulled out the win when the chips were down.

EDIT: we were also better at tight end. My bad, George.

Agree,💯% that's the BIGGEST negative I have for Jimmy. He just can't stay healthy.

Also agree, that Losing a Superbowl is a team accomplishment. I think Glory is conflating causation and responsibility. i.e. *what caused the loss* vs *who's responsible for the loss.* Those are two different issues in my opinion.
