Crazy that if Bosa doesn’t crash inside sooo bad, he stops Mahomes and 49ers are Super Bowl champs right now.

Reid, on a potential game-losing play, called a play where by design, Bosa was to be unblocked and caught in the wash of a whole bunch of faked actions that were never live. Football!

edit: oh jeez, everyone is pass blocking the whole way, wow. I thought it was a read option on Bosa that Mahomes just recognized instantly but nope.

Yeah, although I still think that Steve Wilks is a good-but-not-great DC and isn’t able to readily adapt/adjust during the game, and Andy Reid took advantage of it perfectly.

he loses them in the same ways. You are arguing that he's a perfect coach; it's really strange considering he keeps losing, for very obvious reasons. but you can keep ignoring that

You listed three games that they lost and the only common denominator is that they lost them. They had close games with the Vikings and Browns and got blown out by the Bengals. In some they were leading at the half in others trailing. In one they lost when the kicker missed a game winning field goal from inside his range. It’s literally just a list of games they lost.

Shanahan has his problems, just like every coach, but I think the idea that he can’t win the big one because he has failed in two superbowls against the Pat Mahomes and Andy Reid is just goofy. He’s made four CCGs in five years with Jimmy G and Mr. Irrelevant at QB!

Reid did this to Bosa for the entirety of Super Bowl LIV. Unblocked and had to make a read every time, and it was always the wrong read .

I disagree that it was always wrong in the previous 49ers Chiefs SB, Bosa wrecked a whole lot of stuff and did everything he could in that game even if he just got one sack and one TFL.

In this one he didn't show up on the stat sheet meaningfully but really was disciplined at keeping contain while being dangerous which frustrated the offense. Just...not on that particular play which turns out to be a big one.

He mostly played pretty good in both games in my opinion, he just didn't win.

Do the Super Bowl overtime rules address what happens if two quarters are completed before both teams have had a full possession?

Like this scenario:

-Team 1 gets the ball to begin overtime and puts together a 17 minute TD drive (theoretically possible assuming a leisurely 40 seconds per play for a 25 play drive).
-Clock runs out on Team 2 while they are still on a long, slow drive of their own. Does the game proceed to Q3 of overtime with Team 2 receiving the opening kick after "halftime"? Or does it considered a failed possession and end of game?

i havent read through the actual rules, but based on everything i gathered from the explanations on tv, the clock is more or less meaningless and only exists for the purposes of a break and flipping the field. in the super bowl, it is forever the end of the 1st quarter at the conclusion of an OT "quarter". they just keep going until someone scores.

That's what Romo said when it came up during the game. I know for sure that's been the playoff rule for sudden death since always, though nobody has ever made it past 2OT.

Yeah I even remember Romo diagramming Bosa going *almost* too far inside, then properly keeping his edge elsewhere in the game. I just really like poo poo like this because in a game with 22 people on the drat field, games can be won because some dork in a booth above the stadium detected that one player might have an exploitable tendency.

It's even possible that Bosa got a check that the back end didn't, or they got a check that he didn't, so he wasn't supposed to be the edge-setter.

On the college side, this kind of thing is what led to the crazy Michigan-Penn State game with 32 straight runs. PSU's edges would fire in and couldn't be blocked, so Michigan ran poo poo like that play to make the aggressiveness backfire.

Would Kelce have picked up Bosa if he went outside leaving the safety to stop Mahomes? Obviously not as good as what happened but open field tackling Mahomes is not an easy task.

The more I rewatch that play, the more I'm kinda fascinated by it. I keep looking at SF's #54 (Warner, Linebacker) as he'd be the edge-setter if it wasn't Bosa. And Warner hugs the line, then immediately grabs the slot receiver as he passes off Kelce to a corner. Bosa could've been expecting Warner to play as the Edge, but Warner didn't as he had that coverage duty on the slot when it became clear it was a pass play.

Kelce/Bosa hit the same area so quick I have no idea if Kelce made a read to let Bosa go, or his job was always to get out into the flat and abandon blocking. Sure looked like with Warner in coverage, it was Bosa or something.

According to the NFL website, there is not a halftime but they would kick off again at the start of OT3.

Yeah overtime is like a brand new game with sudden death eventually involved. So there's a two minute warning and all in the second OT and you either score or run out the clock and there's a kickoff for whoever didn't receive the ball in the first OT.

Timeouts reset, you get three each 'half' so there's that too. I don't know, it's interesting to think about but seems like it would be a really extremely agonizing game to watch if it ever actually happened. Like playoff hockey except no one gets any chances because the defenses would just be clamping everything down. Punter's time to shine though in this scenario.

I’ve seen some multi-OT playoff hockey games where it never seems to leave the neutral zone for an hour.

By the third or fourth OT at 2 AM, you simultaneously love it and wish for the sweet release of death.
