Sports casters were already comparing Mahomes to Brady when the kid was still in training pants. They were determined to have a new Brady and decided Mahomes was Da Guy. That's the main reason I wanted to see the Chiefs plotz in today's game (apart from the fact that I live right outside SF). There is no "new Brady" nor will there be in the foreseeable future. And it totally pisses me off that they're already putting KC in the same category as NE in our glory days. Let's see them win another one.Welp, this is going to be a miserable off-season with all the Chiefs dynasty talk ... sigh.
true, although the announcers did make the point that the 9ers "D" was just on the field for that last 4th qtr drive and were spent. The 9ers having a long drive didn't seem to freshen them up any unfortunately.49ers should have chosen field direction when they won the coin toss in OT.
Have the advantage of 4 downs once they got the ball.
Yup, it's almost as if the NFL is rigged.That is one minor blessing
purdy did well, but niners blew so many chances and that muffed punt was a killer
68 for 68 in the regular season on PATS. This one came out low like a 60 yarder, right when it would have forced KC to get a touchdown instead of extending if needed with field goals.you mean the extra point that was blocked? I don't recall a missed kicked otherwise but might have missed it. the 9ers kicker was considered a potential liability as he had missed playoff kicks already, but he wasn't the problem (unless that extra point block was really low, I heard it on the radio while driving my son to work)
Like a daisy in a field of weeds.Sigh. The legend of Patrick Mahommes continues to grow.
he was mvpAnd of course, while Mahomes will get feted, everyone will forget the key moment in OT was Chirs Jones blowing up that Niner 3rd down deep in the RZ and forcing SF to take the FG.
How can you be up so early?!he was mvp
it would have been interesting if Chiefs had to get a TD - had he made the PAT and 9ers had a 4pt lead - what happens there. Chiefs might be playing it diff knowing they just need an FG, and if they score the TD they win vs. OT... and if 9ers stop them they win.68 for 68 in the regular season on PATS. This one came out low like a 60 yarder, right when it would have forced KC to get a touchdown instead of extending if needed with field goals.
It's gut-wrenching because they are as close to a total football team as you can get. Defense is top drawer, offense has weapons everywhere and Purdy actually played well. ST is OK, the kicker is so so but punter is very good.It's one thing if you get beat in a Super Bowl, it's another think if you lose a Super Nowl by stepping on your own dicks.
This one will hurt the Niners players and coaches for a long time. Some may even come down with Scott Norward syndrome.
