[@myriadcorp]

Hardman never said he didn't know the rules. He said he blacked out for a second because he caught a td to end the game. It's literally a moment every kid imagines.

[@dinkumthinkum4247]

Literally? You speak for every child on the planet? Are you actually an omniscient supercomputer?

[@jmbisho72]

100% correct.

[@Crocoroar]

​@dinkumthinkum4247 even if he didnt know the rules, its been a whirlwind of a season for him. Get paid by the Jets, ride their bench, come back to KC and try to get ready again to play here and he only made positive plays in the very last game of the season. Dude had a lot on his plate.

[@AlbertTorres81]

😂😂

[@Zarab923]

@@dinkumthinkum4247you don’t think every kid in life and every kid playing madden doesn’t freak out when they actually win… catching the game winning catch. You just might blackout lol

[@Cryptocracy_Now]

Hardman knew the rules. It was the suddenness of it all, it just took him a second to process it.

[@RogueDemagogue]

To be fair, Mecole Hardman knew the OT rules, he said he 'blacked the fuck out" lol. There is a difference, hehe. We all miss you talking football Kay Adams.

Yeah, why isn't she on GMFB?

[@brentmiller2256]

If he knew the rules, Kansas City won. If he didn't know the rules, Kansas City won. Irrelevant topic.

Mecole Hardman

[@dawanmuhammad9356]

The Chiefs went into this Superbowl there was "never a doubt" they would win and they played like it. The 49ers were also totally confident they would win going into the game, but they played like they were in doubt about everything.

[@kingjosephrbidenjriii5820]

Kay Adams seems like the most lovely person. Thanks for the great content

[@KCCheez]

I think you're great Kay. You're a great news lady. Yeah, yeah. Your eyes tell the story. That's what I love about you. You've got a great mouth.

[@velder22]

I kind of agree with Dan Patrick I think Kyle was trying to prove that his way was best and he was going to get a Super Bowl MVP with the last pick in the draft no matter what

[@eliezarsawesomechannel4917]

Everyone mentions Hardman not knowing the OT rules. The players said Reid informed them of the new OT rules during training camp. Problem is, Hardman was with the Jets during training camp, not the Chiefs.

[@sheilap2443]

They also went over it again they said. Let's just leave it alone. The 49ers LOST AGAIN. People, not meaning you, need to let it go. Enjoy the off season folks!

[@jamespt2005]

Kay I’m so glad you brought up the point that the 49ers stopped going to the run game in the third quarter. Maybe you could elaborate even more on the reason why

[@michaeludeze8470]

How could Mercole Hardman not know over time rule when Chiefs' offense extensively game-planned for over time, and agreed on what to do if the situation arose? Was Hardman left out while other players game planned? Mercole Hardman was overwhelmed by his prominent role in the unfolding events, and he momentarily blacked.

[@DS00999]

CMC only averaged 3.6 ypc. Abandoning the run wasn't the problem. Missing on Trey Lance was the problem.

[@verycold5380]

That still averages out to about 10 yards after 3 downs as somebody who despises the 9ners (eagles fan) it had me confused when they put the game into purdys hands rather than the vets they have been going to all season. It seems like Kyle literally out coached himself once again in the biggest stage.

[@alvinahurtado2878]

Hardman blackout when he catch the ball .He knew the overtime rules.

[@julielobo200sx]

The Chiefs players knew the o.t. rules, the 9rs players didn’t. The Chiefs player who caught the td never said he didn’t know the rules. Get it right. Stop making excuses.

[@franktomocean6916]

Haha Stats on Kay's show! He's climbing the KZbin ladder!

[@Hzxnr8_Kawai]

KC fan. I wanted Lions because of the experience advantage we would have. But damn it, feels so much better to beat stacked Niners for SB after all the reg season turmoil.

[@anurag123B]

Where was George Kittle, he was at the Barber Shop getting hair cut. 😂

[@RogueDemagogue]

Your next show should be about the fallout of this SB, including Brandon Aiyuk is now wanting out of SF.

[@Samiam88]

And honestly ppl always like to praise Patrick after games like this but I truly don’t think the 49er or Kyle feared Mahomes in that moment , he truly thought his defense would stop him. Stupid is what it is. Time and time again we see people doubt mahomes until they just can’t.

[@samuel8590]

Hardman said he BLACKED OUT. Never said anything about not knowing the rules.

[@derekchin6403]

As a lifelong Niners fan, who grew up with the likes of John Brodie before Joe Montana, I completely sympathize now with the teams we played and routinely beat in the '80s (namely the Cowboys, Rams and Bengals) when Montana was at the helm. It didn't matter how far behind we were in the second half, we KNEW we'd still win as long as Montana was standing. That's today's KC Chiefs with Pat Mahomes. Ugh, this loss will sit for a while. But let's try it again, next year!

[@AndrewLovato-cn3ck]

Blame pie is not taking advantage of the moment . Killer attitude when you see you can run run when you can pass, pass . Go with the flow of the game !! Don’t let the overthinking overwhelm your play calling.

[@A1Arachnids]

LETS GO CHIEFS ❤️💛 3 PEAT 3 PEAT!

[@stevethomas2022]

The coach believed like his one player that was calling Patrick regular,that’s the way he coached.

[@edscott4729]

CMC had 30 targets/rush attempts. The next most for SF was Debo with 14. Another reason for the loss.

[@benjibuttons7483]

Kay Adams use to be a Chiefs fan then something switched up and she has been the Biggest Bengals Fan, and now one of the Biggest Chiefs Hater……. Boy it is so crazy to watch….. y’all bet against the chiefs all playoffs ….. for like 4 years now…. When y’all gonna learn

[@jarrhoo]

Wait wait wait...let's reflect... The Ravens "abandoned the run" & the Niners "abandoned the run"...could it be, dare I say, the Chiefs defense, or, you'll need time left to rebound from what Patrick's about to do?!

[@joshuaswift5252]

This was by far the best analysis I have seen to date . Need to get you on TV.

[@ek2156]

Shanahan is too full of himself to admit any kind of mistakes on his part. John Lynch just lets him fire Steve Wilkes as a scape goat!

[@robertbarnhill488]

Shanahan mightve been able to get that difference maker if he hadnt squandered those picks

[@edscott4729]

Any reporter who calls the 49ers "his team" must be a 49ers employee.

[@velder22]

I think Brock played as good as Jimmy G did in his Super Bowl and we roasted Jimmy G for it

[@redcomet0079]

He played better

[@velder22]

And I think Jimmy g played better in the playoffs than brock, and he missed the same throws

[@joekostelac4707]

I hope they don't fire Shanahan so KC can keep beating him in the SB. 😅

[@yahcrack]

Shanahan literally said it had nothing to do with his defense being tired and she still runs with it. She’s clueless.

[@vernonquarles1740]

Even if they make a touchdown in OT the extra point after is not guaranteed.

[@MrDavidknigge]

Why can't we score more points? Golly, maybe its the defense. Ya think?

[@jeremikurry3167]

Mecole knew the rules he was excited to win the Superbowl he spikes the ball then celibates the amount of copium YOU have to ingest to reach your next breath is astounding!! ALSO STATING REGULATION STATS IS BOGUS AF YOU HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR THE WHOLE GAME!!! THE LOMBARDI DOES!!! BUT THAT IS COMMON WITH THE 40 WHINERS AND THEIR FANS THEY DON"T LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE AND THEY FOCUS ON THE UNIMPORTANT DETAILS! MUST BE A CULTURE THING SMH LOL

[@jaysartori9032]

This is the Super Bowl it's where you throw all of your cards on the table, and go ball to the wall!!

[@andrewsanderson4156]

Brock Purdy gave the Niners the lead 3 different times in the 4th quarter and OT Purdy was not the problem he did his job.

[@irlzy]

where is sad deebo? need him on the show to figure out why he choked so hard

[@Crocoroar]

He didnt choke. Trent McDuffie is yet another Chief that is Hall of Fame bound and he only just finished his second season. He walked into the league playing at an All Pro level, he just got injured for much of the early part of his rookie season. Then he came back playing at an All Pro level, won a Superbowl, returned for year 2, got recognized as an All Pro, and won another Superbowl. Despair, because he's damn good.

[@bradvance1846]

This loss is on Shanahan’s incompetence in poor decision on 3rd and 4 in the red zone in the 5th quarter. His poor clock management really cost the team dearly. He played not to lose the game, whereas Reid determined to take the Lombardi trophy at strong will.

[@ThisGuyDrives]

0:19 SECONDS OF THE VIDEO. I know she's a Chargers fan. But, I think if she found the right Chiefs fan, she could be converted. I miss seeing Kay on NFL Network. She was the best part of the show. She knows more about football than me and I love her for it. She also seems very cool. Besides the Charger thing.

[@FlagstaffChief]

Interesting strategy by 49ers brain trust. Shanahan has trouble with situational game management, so they hire an assistant to help him with game time decisions. Who do they hire? Brandon Staley, who also has a reputation for making bad game time decisions. A perfect match. 4:16

[@wyattderp9719]

I would love to see plays designed specifically to having Brock run the ball.

[@mikenkc7953]

Kittle was hurt. Mccaffrey was spent, taking hard hits the entire drive. If the 49ers would have gone for it on 4th down in ot, they would have been stopped

[@donnacochran3335]

Kyle Shanahan chokes on the biggest stages! I was at the 28-3 game...He will win a SB when he finds someone who chokes bigger than him. 😂

[@jrandliz]

Purdy isn't elite, move on from him. Find a unicorn, Chiefs have Mahomes.

[@raysville7256]

Hardman caught the wining TD in Overtime. End of memo.

[@bonym371]

Every player and fan in the kingdom knows the rule because they are reason the rule changed in the first place!

[@redandgoldfan3869]

Next season has a lot to do with this: 12:05

[@clintwarner3008]

This coin toss is over blown. If you go down and get 7 on yur first drive you put the pressure on KC. Unfortunately they only put up 3. They could of had 5 downs, Spags is not letting them get into the endzone. They were lucky to get 3pts. Defense could not stop mahomes.

[@timclark2925]

The 49ers messed that game up in OT on the 3rd and 4 play on the 9 yd line......they forgot to block Chris Jones (totally botched assignment; likely by #74) or they would have scored a td....2 wide open receivers

[@williamcarter9066]

You have to knock the champs out and when he hits the ground then gets up the moment he gets back up you knock out again!! The Niners as a team didn’t have any killer instincts that day neither did Dolphins Bills or Ravens!!

[@edscott4729]

Players who didn't know the rules and said so were throwing Kyle under the bus.

[@joematthews5852]

If the back up didn't hold, it would have been a loss of yards.

People that don't play football talking about football.

[@tywinders7628]

Shanahan is where Andy was before Andy got the best player the planet has ever seen. All Kyle needs is 15 and he'll win superbowls. Maybe when Andy retires Kyle can come to KC so he can start winning the big game.

[@benjiwilson5646]

they got a first down after that holding so what are you talking about

[@adasterdezaster2865]

When the kicked the 3 I knew it was over. I think we all did.

[@o4tw382]

KAY IS USUALLY A SIMP FOR DEEBO I WONDER WHY HE HASN’T BEEN ON YET

[@Fourwedge]

Shanahan should be an offensive coordinator. If you need a big decision maker... Hire one. If he went for it... He'd be roasted as well. The Chiefs deserved it. The niners didn't run or through the ball well.

[@tylerdixon3160]

This guy was so cocky leading up to the game. Hilarious that he had to watch the Chiefs own SF as usual

[@q-j-p]

Shanahan needs a winner to shepard him to make correct decisions in crunch time. Vrabel as his DC would do wonders, wouldn’t put up with his legacy boy nonsense about being a boy genius and whatnot smh (usurping to call a TO over Wilkes and then receiving OT 1st is the equivalent of putting your brain in a bird and watching it fly backwards…) Needs to shed the moniker of being Andy Reid of Eagles

SUPER ROLL in SUPERBOWL for GREATEST TEAM IN LEAGUE HISTORY.

[@truthjester]

Let's be factual here--Mecole Hardman was a New York Jet most of the year = he wasn't part of a lot of this coaching by the Chiefs about the overtime rules, also as a Chiefs fan, Mecole was never considered a smart player here....just saying....

[@tlindsey1966]

The Chiefs reviewed the overtime rules every playoff game. They have an analyst named Fraser that reviewed over time rules. Per Kelce on New Heights podcast the Chiefs went over overtime scenarios about 3 times before the Super Bowl.

[@greenboyvlogs]

I am a Niners fan but this 49ers reporter talks like he is the “best” lol. It is easy to be a spectator and tell all the BS they should have done, but at that moment Kyle made those decisions he think is best. you’re a reporter/youtuber, not a player/coach..

[@kim-jong-poon]

NFL overtime should just be an extra 10 minute quarter played in full. None of this sudden death next score wins crap. That makes sense for a sport like hockey, not football.

[@Tilly7731]

Are you suggesting they change the OT rule, again. That would be the third time. Maybe we can just have a rule, it's tied so nobody wins.

[@bourbontrail565]

Society participation Trophy, Everyone Wins….. lol

[@danielcole9070]

No, because one team could take 80% of the time off the clock in one drive. Maybe even all the time. I think the current rules are as good as it gets.

Stop crying, kc was prepared for OT and won on the same play of last year SB. 😂

[@issakakish3904]

Shanahan lost the game in the super bowl.

[@WizzRacing]

Stop repeating ignorant people. Only one person on the 49ers didn't know the rules. His team mates explained it to them.. And no, taking the ball first wasn't their mistake. Playing to not lose was. While the Chiefs played to Win...

[@Nobody-ld7mk]

More Lame Excuses... Stats speak for themselves, close contest with the Chiefs having a slight edge in the Statistics. Had a 10 Point head start and still couldn't pull it off. So basically the "Coin Flip" is at fault. Probably set the niners up with a known to be un-lucky coin, bad luck cost them the game...

[@user-xb1vx7md3v]

Kyle style is too rigid. Game plan in stone no adjustments. Injuries same plan. Great OC lousy head coach. Reid did everything he didn't. Just according to the flow.😮😮

[@coreyandnathanielchartier3749]

Chiefs are simply a better team than the Niners, who are full of prima donnas who can't work well together, and a coach who can't accept when his stuff isn't selling the room. Chiefs D shut down Deebo, Kittle, McCaffrey and finally, Mahomes played matador on the Niners' mega-buck D-line. Andy and Steve out-coached, out-bluffed, and finally, out-witted KS.

[@lyndaalicea6037]

Never, ever bet against Mahomes. Our defense got us there and football geek mahomes turns the grim reaper

[@user-gk9tq8ch7t]

As a Chiefs' fan I think people are crazy for bashing Shanahan. His decision to receive the ball first in overtime could have played out good for the 49ers. The Chiefs could have turned the ball over on down or the 49ers could have forced a turnover leading to a 49ers win. Imo Shanahan is a good coach for a great team. The Chiefs are also a great team that had luck going their way. To the 49ers I'd say enjoy your trip to the super bowl you had a great year. May see you in New Orleans next year.

[@eliedaniel1083]

The main reason its flawed is it handcuffs you. Even if u go 4 down territory, and u score a td, u likely arent going for 2 because of if u dont hit, u only have 6 and a td + pat beats u. Going 2nd ensures u have a chance to end the game whether the team that goes 1st scores a td, fg, or nothing. U dont wanna bank on the 3rd possession.

[@anurag123B]

This guy is complaining too much. He should go and play some snaps
