Where The 49ers Lost The Super Bowl 

Guy is literally the only person I can listen to and be okay. Thank you Guy! 🙏🏽 this one hurt.

Dude you can't equal miscues with the Chiefs......fumble for fumble, penalty for penalty, and expect to win. You have to capitalize on every opportunity and make ZERO mistakes. You can't miss an extra point, fumble the ball in the red zone, botch a punt, fail to capitalize on the Mahomes interception, and expect to win. You shouldn't be surprised.

You are the only one i can listen to Guy.

Shanahan deserves 97% of the blame with horrific play calling.

Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch are the most to blame for as to what happened. Gave up three No. 1’s for Trey Lance - picks that could have been used to improve the O-Line. Did nothing this past offseason to fix the O-Line and let’s face it, Kyle Shanahan just freezes in the big games.

Absolutely need O-line help in the offseason With our plays and players it’s sad to see it end like that.

JT O'Sullivan has a great breakdown on 49ers play calling over on the QB school.

Kyle has the best analytical line to losing.

I’m not a Niner fan but was pulling for you guys because a special teams player attends my church. Lots of reasons to pull for a team. Also I’m old enough to have loved Montana and Rice and Young. Good on y’all next year. 👍👍👍

I can always find solace and good reasoning from Guy after a tough 9ers lost. He’s good at finding the positives.

Guy the first half of this video is your best so far. Best take and info on Purdy and this game for sure. Stats to back it up also.

The bottom line as to why the Chiefs won is their coaches had them prepared for the OT, and 49ers coaches had not properly prepared the players. Reid and his coaches had thought ahead and were ready for what decision they needed to make if the game came down to OT. There is no way I believe Shanahan's story about getting the ball the 3rd time BS. If you win the toss, you give the ball to the Chiefs, the best they can do is go down, score a TD, and go for the 2 point conversion. If they were successful, the 49ers get the ball back and have to match them but at least they are in 4 down territory. How the hell Shanahan thought taking the ball first was his best option is BS, I don't think he or the 49ers were prepared for the game to get to that point. Teams play, players make mistakes, it was a hard fought game on both sides. Both teams deserved to win based on their play in regulation, but the Chiefs were prepared for OT and the 49ers were not, it was obvious.

Thank you for all the great content Guy. I really enjoyed listening to you all season.

how do they leave Jones unblocked on 3rd down play, smh

Halftime was where the game was lost. A 10-3 first half where you dominate is a recipe for a loss

Purdy doesn’t get fooled, he just doesn’t have the outs Mahomes has like the quick pick routes and McKinnon out of the backfield. The Chiefs play calling is so much better

So happy yall are hurting right now after all the trash talk since last year

30 years faithful. Not anymore, i'm taking my talents to Houston 😂

I identify as a fan whose team won the Super Bowl. Cant tell me anything differently

In these games against a Mahomes..everything counts..every little thing...fumbles, missing blocks, OT rules, not knowing the ball is about to hit your foot, not just jumping on the punt, low snap, getting FG's instead of TD's..on and on...KC did NOT look great overall but were great when it counted...

Guy, thank you for all the great content for the last 12 months! You are literally my “go to guy“🎉

No way we should move on from Purdy. He will continue to grow and get better, and the relationship between him and Kyle will continue to expand so that he will be able to work with Kyle and calling different types of plays.

10:00 wow I’m surprised that I never heard this story about Bill Walsh and scripting plays. Very cool.

Guy, you carried me through this whole season. Your name and voice is synonymous with the 49ers for me now, and you're the only person I want to listen to talk about this game. You've made me feel better. Godspeed, good sir! Onto the 2024 offseason!

They made too many errors on all fronts. The blown O line assignment in OT was the biggest one. Brock had no time to throw on a free rush down the middle and cant see Aiyuk if hes not the first option. Aiyuk should be isolated on Jenning side. Aiyuk is a better receiver. The O line messed up earlier in the game on a big 3rd down. Not to mention Brock all year was getting hit hard on throws. Dude has guts but needs protection it is the biggest concern in the offseason.

Number 68 was at fault. He let Chris Jones go by and get a free run at the quarterback. That's inexcusable.

Don't forget to mention that year Spags faced Brady it was their undefeated season

3 yards essentially in the 3rd quarter from Kyle I think cost us the game. Put the defence under too much pressure

We beat ourselves with numerous mistakes. Fumble, muffed punt, missed extra point, missed blocks, penalty. Problems with o line and defense couldn't get a stop at the end. 😢 Losing Dre was devastating. Both Cousins and Rodgers are coming back from that injury.

And the lack of prep for the ot rules is gross and needs to be addressed Putting that prep in the chiefs head really shows their mentality through the season… they prepped to win the Super Bowl in training camp. The Niners prepped to get to the Super Bowl

Truth about scripting and visualizing a plan. It applies to many professional settings outside of football too.

Congrats Guy, excellent video (your buddy is kinda annoying though) You try to look at things with a balanced perspective and it is much appreciated. Also, that bit about the Chiefs DC opinion on Purdy helped bring a little bit of hope for things going into next year. Thanks and keep at it!

This vid, and many like it... the tone, the eyes, the thinking... it a version of hell 😂

The Niners under KS ALWAYS face free runner pressure. Happened with JG, too. It's a KS/scheme issue. It gets QBs hurt, too.

gotta disagree with Schwartz and here’s why… you’re essentially saying going for it on 3rd & 4 after the 2.00 warning, a pass vs. 2 runs, says you trust Moody to make a 53-yard FG for a 3 point lead, vs. CMC having two chance to get 4-yards and win the SB, because KC would have 1 TO left under 2:00 1st & 10 for SF. I’m getting those 4 yards with the NFL’s Offensive POY

Enough of the nonsense. Kyle didn’t choke, the moment wasn’t too big for Purdy, the defense left it all out on the field, and we still got beat. We played a really good game against a super tough team and got beat. It happens. Couple bad breaks . A muffed punt, a McCaffery fumble are all it takes sometimes.

I think Brock doesn't realize just how good he is as a runner.

So there is no 2nd OT. Remember this is a new game. A full 4 quarter game!! Not second OT after 1st quarter that's why not Time Outs we're used. They would've flipped to other end zone and started the 6th quarter. Hope makes sense

Going for 3 and not the TD cost them the SB. Thinking Mahomes not scoring a TD when they got the ball was dumb.

The first two picks in the draft should be oline. Or use some of that Purdy savings to buy better oline. shannahan also need to incorporate drag routes

I’m so sad

Love how you brought in Schwartz to explain difference between play call's and QBs

Late comment but this video just randomly showed up on my YT home page 🤣 Anyway, at 19:45 you said Kyle Shanahan needs to be openminded about Brock's suggestions, advice, etc. Well, I just watched one of those SB-58 mini movies (I think it was NFL Films) and there's a clip where it looks like Brock is trying to tell Shanahan that the OT rules are different in the Super Bowl and Kyle literally dismissed him and walked away and continued to talk into his headset, presumably listening to what Analytics was telling him to do. If I find it again, I'll post here.

Why why WHY are we cursed!?

Geoff Schwartz was fantastic, thanks Guy!

WHT we lost was the 4th quarter 3 and 4 and we didn't run damn ball to keep the time going or have them use a time out

Chris Jones said it. They are crazy for taking the ball.

Guy, the 49ers would have gotten the ball if the Chiefs kicked a FG, regardless of what period they kicked it in. If the period ended and it went to a second, each team will still have possessed the ball once. At that point, assuming a FG, the 49ers get it first (third possession of OT) with sudden death in effect.

If Kyle and the analytics guys felt both teams were more likely to score a FG, then “going for 2” doesn’t matter. They can’t go for 2 if they never score a TD. You either go with all the analytics or none of them, otherwise the analytics are misapplied and don’t add up.

How the hell you want the ball 3rd but dont come through on your end and get a TD?

What? Did Schwartz just insinuate they should let Purdy go and draft a rookie, cuz he'd be just as good in this "system"? Lol, ok, his opinion just lost any sway...

Dude forgot he had the best RB in the league

They need to fire Kyle Shanahan immediately

One thing I've not seen anyone saying on any analysis of the game is that the new overtime rule didn't really take effect. Even under the old rules, if the 49ers had kicked the field goal, Chiefs still would have been in the exact same spot, playing 4 down ball, knowing they had to score. The new rule would have only been a change if San Fran had scored a TD. That doesn't mean they made the right call off of the coin toss, as it could have been a bigger deal than it was. But given they didn't score a TD, the new rule wasn't really the cause of anything.

So sad about Dre. I really hope he can work hard at rehab and get back, but doing what he does on the field it may be really difficult.

'... the freedom to use that strength...'

Apparently Feliciano and Burford are beefing on Twitter - Feliciano says Burford fucked up here Update: Feliciano apologized and said he was hungover + emotional lol

Mahomes is President of the San Francisco 49ers

Viva! LOST Vegas!!! Kyle, Kyle, Kyle Not knowing the 'new' overtime rules... Head Coaching error. York basically guaranteed the Head Coaches job for the next millennium and instead of getting drunk before press conferences, maybe the Head coach should have been going over the new overtime rules with the team.... Head Coaching error. The 49ers should have deferred the kick in overtime...Coaching error.. NO.. Head Coaching error. Not utilizing player talent to the best of their abilities. Using Deboo the wrong way. Head Coaching error. Debo is good when you give him the ball. He is not at his best when used as a premiere wide receiver. Not realizing that there was no time for that kind of play to develop because the Chiefs pass rush was good... Head Coaching error. Trying to get your Quarterback injured.?.?. Head Coaching error. Not realizing that it is taking zero seconds for the Chiefs defenders to reach your quarterback and that it is taking your defense much longer to get to the Chiefs quarterback... Head Coaching error. Calling so many plays with nobody in the backfield basically broadcasting to the Chiefs defense that it is a passing play.. it almost feels inexcusable. Head Coaching error. The defense was playing really well until Head Coach yelled at Defensive Coordinator and then the defense folded. Head Coaching error. Admitting in the press conference that you 'stuck to your genius plan' WITH NO IN GAME / DURING GAME ADJUSTMENTS... Head Coaching error. And then telling the Defensive Coordinator to change his plan? Isn't that when the defense lost? Right after Head Coach tried to help? When Head Coach is also the Offensive Coordinator, Offensive Coordinator issues will go unaddressed. Obviously 'Hind sight is 20/20. But if this happens every season, at what point is this no longer considered 'Hind sight'? Kyle is NFL pedigree. That being said, you don't simply fire him without a better option. Defensive Coordinator played a great game seemingly until Head Coach took over by yelling at him. The football is not round and being shaped the way it is, sometimes the ball doesn't bounce in your team's favor. This is not something that can be controlled, I'd like to focus on things that can be controlled and tweaked. Firing the Defensive Coordinator for playing a very, very good game until Head Coach interfered with his play calling and performance is dishonorable and should not be done for that reason...unless there is a better option. Head Coach playing Offensive Coordinator allows Head Coach too many options and excuses and power to fail and get away with it. Tweaks: kicker needs to make the extra points,.. this is not a new issue. Trenches have needed attention for years and years.. this is not a new issue. Head Coach needs to finally realize and recognize that watching the tape to figure out what happened is too late. "The tape is too late." Head Coach needs to take off the training wheels and hire an Offensive Coordinator. The players will lose confidence in the current situation, and it will show in their performance if the current Head Coaching / Offensive Coordinator issues are left unaddressed. Bottom Line: The players stuck to and followed the Head Coaches system.. and they lost. A Head Coach is the Head of the organization and needs to accept responsibility and accountability for the team if and when they don't succeed and not hide behind excuses or circumstances.

Getting out prepared by the same team you lost a SB to 4 years ago is maddening. It was like the same game happening over again.

If only we score a touchdown instead of field goal in OT

I have a feeling that even if niners deferred, they would've put even more pressure on Purdy to match a td and then they wouldn't go for 2. Then everyone would criticize them for giving Mahomes the ball twice in ot

Yeah the only way to stop REID’s greatness is to get some luck on your side. Chiefs had all the luck. That’s football, you never know how that luck is going to fall

I still cant do it. I haven't rewatched the game or watched any SB recap pod episodes, including this one. Maybe one day, but not today RU-vid algorithm

I think Shananhan plays too much in the future. It's all about setting up the big plays. He's comes out of half time calling passing plays trying to see what looks he's gonna get so he can set up a big play. They missed on a few of the big plays. Kyle should have tried to attack underneath and let his players get yards. Also, the o-line just isn't good enough. Neglecting the o-line is finally rearing it's ugly head. I try not to be negative, but Kyle isnt a good enough play caller to win a superbowl and the Niners are cursed. There's always something. Until Andy Reid dies of a heart attack Shanahan will never win a Lombardi.

I can't listen to this today. See ya in a couple weeks HAM 🙏 GFF 2.0 training camp coming to a RU-vid stream near you

49ers LB Dre Greenlaw's game- and season-ending Achilles injury suffered by running onto the field from the sideline was likely a first in NFL history. Not quite the way that the 49ers wanted to make Super Bowl history.

If still under the old overtime rules - 49ers would be champs!

...looking back as you 9er fans can: could anyone stop Montana at the end of the game -2 minute drill...?! Hell NO,and you're not stopping "Little Montana" ! Be grateful we NFL "Fans" can SEE an updated version of precision and skill!! Congrats Patrick!!!

Kyle Shanahan should’ve stay aggressive and tan the ball on 3rd and 4 after the 2 min warning timeout! Milk the clock out force Cheifs to use their timeouts and kick the game winning fg with no time left! Mahomes can’t be you if he don’t get the ball! 1:53 left on the clock with 2 timeouts was way too much time for Mahomes!

If the 40 whiners spent as much time learning overtime rules as they do crying and complaining when they lose maybe you'd have won?

I think OT choice was wrong. Should have gone second. However, my larger concern was that to this point i dont feel like ive ever seen purdy look like he was in a position that was too big for him....he looked like that last night.

1st thing that hit me on OT that Mahomes had 4 downs I said at the flip I don't want the ball 1st Understand the 4th qtr and not going for it But in OT 9ers should have been in 4 down mode

Hartman was on the Jets to begin the year.

As to where they lost…in Las Vegas. As to why: they were playing the Chiefs😅

Hard to win a SB with a “game manager” at QB when going up against a Patrick Mahomes led team.

Andy coaching is brilliant compared to Shannahan! He’s really is the pinnacle of coaching greatness

Analytics is still a developing field. There’s still a ton of subjective data not included in the models

Damn. @guy You got hit by Washington loss & 49ers within a month+

You're right about tom and jerry being the likely 2-pt play. Either that or reid has an even deadlier one he never used.?

Agree Guy that’s the difference between an all time great Bill Walsh and Kyle Shanahan. The kids have the saying there’s levels to this.(Truthfully I don’t know if they even say it still I’m getting old lol)

If KC had gone for two, I wonder what that play would have been. I wrote this before hearing the speculation, which makes lots of sense. If you need a two point play for everything, that would be a good one.

Back-loaded contracts will put pressure on the 49ers GM unext year. The year after that it will be cap hell.

🤦🏽‍♂️🤡. Take the training wheels off of Purdy. He can’t call the correct protections? He can’t change the call? But he is a game changer?🤦🏽‍♂️.

49's lost the 1st second they thought they were gonna Win

At least SF fans aren't blaming refs.

Only 1 person to blame, your coach. Dude drowns in a cup of water

Every coin flip winner in playoff overtimes will defer from here on.

Wilkes was not the reason the 49ers lost the game, it was Shanahan's fault the team lost. Wilkes was just a scape goat and Lynch let Shanahan stay.

Mecole didn't start the season with the Chiefs, so he wasn't around during the offseason when the new overtime rules were drilled into them. Gaslighting is definitely not the proper use for the term ... it has to be consistent programming that changes your view of reality, like with corporate news, politicians, abusive or unfaithful partners, etc

Wow!what was 68 doing?who was he blocking,thanks for giving us the sb win

Also, I wonder if the analytics team is gonna throw him under the bus.

I have never been one to believe the NFL is rigged but after watching the game again and seeing the Chiefs O line holding on at least 5 different plays it's starting to make me question it. Bosa actually got tackled and thrown to the ground, would be almost impossible to miss this as an official. Unreal and very disappointing.

This guest didn't clarify much. BTW, Spag's comments about Brock are patronizing.

When time ran out they were behind. I think that pretty much sealed it.

This pass protection is too complex for what it’s worth . The center took the left end and Mccivitz should have taken on jones . Too many moving parts at the stage of the game . With time Brandon or Jennings would have caught the ball .

Shanahan has to make changes or its time to move on. Sick of him not adjusting. He better start letting Purdy make those decisions

Just come up with a a stop on D! How do you have a 4th and 1 and no QB spy?

The 49ers were gaslighting by claiming they didn't know the ot rules. Notice how they didn't make the claim until after the game. If they seriously didn't know the rules then that's on them.

Yeah, y'all going to go back to the Superbowl next year and lose again, probably to Mahomes. The 49ers, the new buffalo bills from the 90's.
