Chiefs offense started clicking when he went out.

SF will be in the mix again next year. That was an awesome game.

They have a boatload of draft picks, wouldn't surprise me if they trade up for a CB, OL or Edge they like. They are also maxed on salary cap and will have to contend with the up and coming Rams and Seahawks (MacDonald whooped their ass).

Not only that, but why in the fuck did they give him 2 minutes left in regulation. You don't give a QB like Mahomes that kind of time. That there shows you how fucking unprepared Kyle is to deal with big game moments. It's always the shitty coaches that continue to give these guys reasons/time to be legends. Sure, lets give Montana, Brady, Manning, Brees, Mahomes 2 minutes to drive for FG range.

Leo Chenal should have been the MVP in this game. By far.

Chenal in this game:
- forced fumble on McCaffrey
- blocked extra point
- pressure on Purdy to force a throwaway
- eight-yard TFL on checkdown to Jennings

Great way to prepare your players Kyle.

They must hate Kyle...lol

Started the drive with 5:45 on the clock. First play was 23 yards to basically midfield. Then Karlaftis faked a finger injury and there was a timeout. So they were at the KC 43 with 4-1/2 minutes left. They then did try to bleed the clock with two run plays. They let the 2 minute warning pass but the clock stopped obviously. 3rd and 5 and they had to try and pass for the first down. Incomplete. Kicked the fg. I don’t see any way they could have wasted more time. Plus KC had a couple timeouts.

I actually think that's true of most players and it may or may not be the coach's fault I mean they're not going to spend lots of time going over that, And I'm willing to bet most players just tune out during that part of it. Remember the Philadelphia QB who said that he didn't know that overtime could end in a tie. Not to mention that the winning wide receiver didn't even know he caught the winning pass.

Since 94 SF has been so close so many times. I envy their “problem” but man it must be hard to swallow as a fan. 8 championships games. They won 3 but lost the superbowl 3 times. 8 times they have been knocking at the door. 8 times they couldn’t come in. Crazy.

We've been to 5 SB's 3-2 and 2 championships before the SB era, so we are 5-2 overall, I'll take it.

At the end of the day only 1 team wins the SB. Nobody cares about 2nd place in pro sports. We have been dogshit for 30 years.. Our tide has got to be turning right?!!!??!?!

I know you hate SF lol but there is no comparing us and them over the last 30 years. They are by far the superior organization since then.

Can't help thinking Reid out coached Wilks, and Spagnola out coached Shanahan. Especially the 4th quarter and OT. It felt in the end that Shanahan didn't fully trust his QB and Reid totally trusted his. Barring major injuries etc. I can see both teams back there next season, but that will depend on how intact they can keep their rosters. Ours is going to be an interesting offseason, but it will also be interesting to see how these 2 teams do to.

Which is worse, to suck for 30 years or to be a great team for half of those years and walk away empty-handed? I feel bad for San Fran but their problems yesterday were self-inflicted.

If you ain't 1st, you're last. Everyone that hasn't won a super bowl for whatever time period you want to use is all in the same boat. I certainly rather have been a Commanders fan than a 49ers fan last night. I'm not even texting my 49ers buddy for a few days so he can have his grieving period.

Purdy is fine. He's exceeded expectations, but he is not someone who will win the big game for you. With all those weapons, top 4 scoring offense, top 2 scoring defense, he couldn't finish the deal. Play calling contributed, but the plays were called because of the faith the HC has in his QB.

KC has by far the lesser playmakers than SF, but everyone in America knew Mahomes was going to score a TD to win it.

We need to find the next Mahomes with this #2 pick.
