Shanny definitely didnt call a great game in the 2nd half, and it looked like his 2 other superbowl losses. Doesnt manage the lead well, goes away from whats working, etc.
the OT thing, receiving vs kicking, i can kind of see why youd receive in that situation, but the explanation he gave wouldnt be the reason for it. His defense had just given up a long drive to Mahomes to tie the game up. That defense was reeling and needed something to take momentum away from the Chiefs. But ultimately, you need to realize that its Mahomes and chances are, hes going to drive the field and score regardless if the defense is rested or not. kicking the ball and putting all the pressure on Mahomes to set the tone, sets up your drive and how you attack it.
the fact that it seems most the 49ers didnt understand the OT rules though is an indictment on Shanahan. That is something you address leading up to the game, and for them to say it wasnt even talked about, is a very bad look.
