Lol I hate how Eisen and Brockmam always have this good cop/bad cop dynamic where Brockmam has hot takes and Rich refuses to ever have a controversial response to them. QB Mt Rushmore is Brady and Mahomes 1 & 2. After that it starts getting a little controversial. Most people would probably say Peyton Manning. But #4 is where it starts getting really spicy.

Manning is not mt. rushmore. He did not win enough.

[@shep68]

Mahomes won it AND SF coaching lost it (yes, even w/ a couple SF player mistakes the game could still have been theirs). So answer to question #1 is both. Here's some free advise to Shannahan...you have McCafferey. Give him the ball.

[@jerraddennis2225]

he had 30 carries dude lol.. his yards per rush dropped dramatically after Spags adjusted. at the start of that second half they knew what San Fran wanted to do. those 2nd &3-4 became 2nd &9-10. Deebo was neutralized and Kittle had 1 target. You don’t beat championship DNA with 1 guy. San Fran isn’t built like that. Not to mention KC lead the league with tipped passes at the line. So those swing routes to McCaffrey weren’t going to work anymore. CM3 is a beast but EVERYONE gets tired. Why would you run him into the ground in the 3rd quarter when there’s another quarter left to play ? That’s how guys get hurt. So he tried to spread the love. Which worked btw. They went up by 3. And had his lineman not completely blown his assignment on Chris Jones they would have had a wide open TD to Jennings to win the game. A play called by who ? O yea, Kyle Shanahan. It took a blocked field goal, a fluke punt that hit a guy in the damn ankle, a tipped pass with the game on the line, and a 75 yard game winning drive by (arguably) the best QB ever made. I’m a KC fan but this is the problem when novice fans have opinions on stuff they don’t understand. Kyle called an amazing game. He just lost to a 3 headed monster. All you guys understand is QB throw, coach make call. Win/Lose on 1 play 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@rhmayer1]

@@jerraddennis2225 Agreed. Also, people are not discussing the huge impact of Dre Greenlaw leaving injured that essentially opened up the middle of the field for Reid and Mahomes. Greenlaw was replaced by Oren Burks who's good but doesn't have Greenlaw's speed and instincts. Reid/Mahomes smartly smelled blood and targeted Burks: 9 passes, 9 completions. Also, no way would Mahomes have run up the middle for all that yardage with Greenlaw there, resulting in conversions and continuing drives. I'll go as far as to say if Greenlaw didn't get injured and stayed in the game then the 49ers win. Taking away the one deep pass to Hardman (that should've been intercepted but Gipson lost the ball in the lights), the Chiefs were held to 2.5 yards/play before Greenlaw left. Greenlaw was having an incredible game before the injury.

[@jerraddennis2225]

@@rhmayer1 EXACTLY ! I completely forgot about Greenlaw going out. Esp the way he did.. Just a freak accident 🤦🏾‍♂️ But yea man, Kyle had the game in hand until literally 3 seconds left in the game. And he had it in hand AGAIN.. Until a minute left in overtime. Did he call a flawless game ? No. But considering Debo and Kittle were completely washed out of the game, losing your QB2 on defense, and playing the #1 or 2 defense in the Super Bowl with a second year QB and it coming down to 3 or 4 plays is insanely impressive. Everybody keeps talking about Shanahans Super Bowl meltdowns without mentioning he lost those games to Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid. Don’t get me wrong i have my issues with him and adjusting on time, but it’s not the worst thing in the world losing to those guys.

[@connorhassing2881]

These are some wild takes from Chris. If one play is different and the 49ers win this game, this entire conversation would be different. Shanahan showed that he has what it takes to win this game and so did Purdy. People forget that shanahan has had to play Brady and Mahomes in the superbowls. Take some of the greatest coaches of all time and they’ll also have a hard time winning one against that slate. It just happened to tick the chiefs way. Shanahan has taken a team to the SB 3 of the last 8 years. He’s gonna get one eventually. Don’t forget that Ppl were talking like this about Andy Reid before 4 years ago

Niners were 3 of 12 on third down. Purdy completed a pedestrian 61% of his passes. CMC was the leading Niners receiver. Samuel was irrelevant. Kittle nonexistent.

Not in February they don't, at least the outdoor ones. I still don't know why they had one at MetLife a few years ago. Frankly, I'd like to see it played at a stadium the NFL _doesn't_ use, so we can avoid what happened back-to-back recently where a team won the Super Bowl in their home stadium.

[@sirkonrad9450]

Montana is clearly on Mount Rushmore for QB, don’t be delusional.

[@thesharkfinnigan]

Agree. That 4th slot is the only one up for debate. And it could be anyone for now.

[@elliotb1795]

I'd just say Brady, Mahomes, Montana and Bradshaw.

[@kevinlehr4705]

Absolutely! Brady #1, Montana #2 Those are still the top 2. It’s ridiculous to say Mahomes is ahead of the Goat- Brady or Montana. In SBs: Montana 4-0 (Tds 11, Ints 0) Mahomes 3-1 (Tds 7, Ints 5) Enough said

[@kelvinsekwati4016]

When the 49ers kicked the FG, I knew the chiefs gon win. They had just walked straight down the field

[@troyroach1277]

KC flipped a switch the second Greenlaw tripped over the sideline.

[@LordMelbury1953]

Don’t forget Seattle as a superbowl city.

[@Tairutheshogun]

Chris that Kelce take is not a MORANIC take. I love that idea. Let the Kelce brothers work together and get that ring together. I am down with this idea a lot. Creed is the Center no doubt, you are right he could play guard, he could move to the tackles but that is a bit much asking him to do that. But also you get added depth in the worst case that Creed goes down. This is a great idea, I was thinking he was still under contract so I was proposing the Chiefs send a 3rd or a 4th to Philly for Kelce. But if he is a free agent. GO get him Veach!!!!

[@csb78nm]

Jason Kelce to KC, I'm down for it. But I'm with Rich - how does that realistically work?

[@carrite]

He is a very, very highly paid player for his position that would be going to a team that has spent all its money on the QB.

[@dfp_01]

He would have to agree to a veteran minimum ring-chasing deal and maybe play a little guard here and there

[@csb78nm]

@@dfp_01 Which is not very likely to happen. A cool send-off thought that is more pipe dream than realistic.

[@PowderKeg3838]

Purdy played better than Allen, Tua and Lamar against the KC defense.

[@Josh_Stringer]

Its still crazy to me that coaches and players don't know the overtime rules.

[@ga6257]

When the 9rs didn't go for it on 4th and 4 I said "the game is over" to my brother. He was saying no it wasn't and got to watch mahomes end the game lmao 😊

[@davidtennien2806]

That final drive felt inevitable.

[@tomtomminger6227]

hahaha, i totally love the last one with the Kelces. Only the "he could play tackle" part is moronic. it's an awesome overreaction. :D

[@WhoIsMike]

Travis and Jason have never been on the field at the same time. Travis played QB as a kid and Jason played LB. In college Jason moved to o line and Travis moved to TE but Travis got suspended for Jason’s last year. I think that how the story goes.

[@logiciansmagician1772]

Chris Jones has made big play after big play for KC through the years but when you have Mahomes you can't pay a premium for that position. They will pay Bolton when he comes up and they will pay McDuffy but Jones is too expensive.

[@leevancleef358]

Purdy's 3rd down pass conversion late in game was tremendous.

[@dfp_01]

Unfortunately that was one of only 3 3rd down conversions the 49ers had, one of the biggest reasons why they lost

[@EJ_7715]

Purdy didn't turn it over. He did great.

[@shoeless1137]

Kyle Shannahan’s game management skills are non existent

[@ChrisPayneHBTW]

Still haven’t seen a PAT in Overtime yet, maybe someday

[@RobsSHiT]

Sounds like Chris had major money on my 9ers.

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

I honestly think that the legalization of gambling has led to a lot of aggression towards certain teams that constantly lose them money. I can’t remember who, but some sports guy was complaining that the chiefs list him $50,000 this year. I also think it’s the major reason for the preponderance of ‘rigged’ we’re seeing in the comments. It’s people who’ve lost money & can’t accept that they were dumb to spend money they didn’t have & that it’s not their fault, so it must be rigged, lol..

[@RobsSHiT]

@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 that’s a solid theory, I’ve never thought about it like that before

[@gregseward5876]

Isn’t that the same thing ppl said about trading Tyreek? As long as KC has Mahomes they don’t HAVE to do anything

[@waynetompkins3006]

The QB is everything. Even Belichick got exposed post Brady. Brady won a Super Bowl in Tampa Bay when they hadn't been to the playoff in 10 years.

[@johnhastings1874]

You clowns are wildly entertaining. Well done and Thanks.

[@stevenkidd6761]

Terry Bradshaw was the original Tom Brady, before Brady was born... Not only in his on field play calling and skills, but he had to check in to hotels under a pseudonym... Mr. Tom Brady was born 🌞 But, yea, Bradshaw is Mt. Rushmore, lets not give in to failed recency biases...

[@felixrodriguez7423]

Otto Graham played 10 seasons and won 7 championships, playing in the championship each year. He played when there was no roughing the Brady rule, QBs werent protected and receivers could be clotheslined. Oh yeah. Graham has a National Basketball Leauge championship too.

[@mikepugliese1670]

Steve spangolo was balling ngl

[@maxng7211]

Spagnuolo came out and said Purdy was shredding their Zone coverage in the first half. That doesn't happen if he's not an elite QB. What happened in the the 3rd quarter is the KC defense switched to man coverage and SF didn't have answers for it. They tried to play more drop back passes to beat the man coverage but guys weren't getting open fast enough and the protection wasn't holding up. Hell, on the last SF pass of the game both JJ and Aiyuk were wide open (Aiyuk in the endzone), but Purdy had no time to throw.

[@charliemirus4124]

Cincinnati was AT Arrowhead last year. So much for fairness…

[@Niex_Knox]

I am now over this KS is a guru bs. Both super bowls he lets slip out of his hands with a 10 point lead. By just not running the ball. All SF needed to do was run the clock down before making it 19-16 now they left 2 minutes and Mahomes almost finished it in regular time.

[@stirthepot8892]

Nobody puts Aikman on there.

[@nsn5564]

The Chiefs defense was absolutely the hero of this story.

[@iparedest]

To be honest, it was the special teams crew who won the SB for KC. If they wouldn’t blocked that extra point the score would’ve been 20-16 and they had to go for a TD with way lower odds.

[@EtuSunTzu]

Because of the Chiefs, are the 49s close to turning into an incarnation of the early 90s Buffalo Bills running into the Cowboy’s, Commaders,and Giants.

[@thebourg]

What about Arizona?

[@h00ded0ne4]

Jauan Jennings was one Chris Jones pressure away from being the MVP with two reception TD's and a passing TD.
