ZERO.
It just goes to show how much everyone just believes Shanahan ran that team with Quinn as his puppet.

#49ers HC Kyle Shanahan said they elected to take the ball to start overtime so they would be assured the ball should the game have been tied after the first two possessions. By that point, it would've be sudden death.

Makes sense but I still think it's the wrong call. Take a look at what ended up happening. We forced KC into a 4th down on that series. If they opened with the ball they may of punted it there but because they had to a score a field goal they went for it, converted, then ended up scoring the game winning td. You're better off knowing what it's going to take to win then having that 3rd possession.

I thought Purdy played a great game. He got letdown by his teammates in this game. CMC with the fumble and then the very next drive Trent has back to back penalties. In the 2nd half his Oline just let players come in unblocked. He didn't have much of a running game to work with in this game. Deebo and Kittle were invisable, And yet he still went toe to toe with Mahomes despite everyone saying that the Chiefs had a much better defense than our's coming into this game. Though I am sure Nick Wright will try to spin this as him being right about Purdy. BTW Wright predicted the Chiefs would win in a blowout.

Originally posted by communist:Yeah, and Mahomes may be the greatest QB ever… Purdy went toe to toe with him. Purdy, our 24 year old franchise QB, is the last person you should be worried about after this game. We are in great hands & he should only get better with more experience. Honestly him, CMC, Jennings & the offensive line (granted only for the 1st & 2nd quarters) were the only ones who showed up on offense. Deebo was hardly noticeable, Aiyuk had some nice catches but he shouldn't be outshined by Jennings in the biggest game of his career and Kittle I'm sure was blocking a ton but was completely invisible as a receiver. That's our big 3 outside of CMC & together they had less then 100 yards…

I agree. And Kyle should have went for it on 4th down instead of kicking the FG. Once they got inside the 10 Kyle should have treated it like 4 down territory. Worse case scenario the Chiefs have to start from inside their 5. And if you know you are going for it on 4th down Kyle has the option to run it on 3rd down.

He's Mahomes. If the requirement of Purdy or any 49er QB going forward is to be as good as Patrick Mahomes... Well, it's never going to happen. Best accept that now.
