Well we know for sure he's proven he can choke them away...

lol proven..Trolls gonna troll

I do not know what you would call something where in the beginning you seem to be winning and have full control then at the end you blow it and lose...

To me that's literally the definition of choking. And shanahans done it twice. 3x if you count the falcons. Literally Vegas has had us favored to win the SB all 4 playoffs so really you could round that to 5x if you want to go by the guys who literally make a living doing it.

I'm not sure what you need to "prove" something but if you can do it 5x and never do the opposite id say it proves it.

He definitely hasn't "proven" he can win a SB. Coming close doesn't count and per Vegas it's literally a 4x failure on the 49ers alone not counting the falcons.

On a scale of proven can win a SB to proven choker which side would you say he is closer to?

That's called.... a football game. scores change in football games. Some people seem to think losing = choking. those were in fact very close, competitive games to great opponents.

would it have made you feel better if we were blown out?

Some fans just cannot handle losing.

It's not we didn't lose. It's we didn't 'choke'. In the context of the SB we played an evenly matched team and lost in two closely contested games.

Again, we have only lost one time in the postseason as a favorite under Kyle: last year's SB. We were a 2 point favorite (ie not big at all).

Choking is losing when you're a big favorite, like 1987 for example.

you talk so much about the glory of the 80's and 90's, but you approach the game of football like a teenager who plays way too much madden, lol.
