49ers players say they didn't know Super Bowl overtime rules
How is this even possible?
https://abcnews.go.com/Sports/49ers-...20Super%20Bowl. 49ers players say they didn't know Super Bowl overtime rules Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs capitalized on the NFL's postseason overtime rules to once again beat the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl. While several Chiefs players and coaches said they had a prepared strategy in the event that the Super Bowl went to overtime, multiple 49ers players admitted they were not even aware of the rules. "I didn't even know about the new playoff overtime rule, so it was a surprise to me," Niners defensive lineman Arik Armstead said. "I didn't even really know what was going on in terms of that." Sunday night's game was the second of 58 Super Bowls to be tied after regulation. It was the first played under new overtime rules that ensure both teams get a chance to possess the ball before the game ends -- unless the first drive in OT ends with a safety. This differs from the rules governing overtime in the regular season, where the game ends if the first team to possess the ball scores a touchdown. After winning the overtime coin toss Sunday, the 49ers elected to receive the ball to start the extra period. But their 13-play drive ended with Jake Moody's 27-yard field goal and set the stage for Mahomes, who orchestrated his own 13-play drive punctuated by a game-winning 3-yard touchdown pass to Mecole Hardman that sealed the Chiefs' 25-22 victory. Niners coach Kyle Shanahan said he and his analytics staff discussed overtime possibilities before the game, but Armstead and fullback Kyle Juszczyk both said that overtime strategy was not discussed with 49ers players leading up to the Super Bowl. "You know what? I didn't even realize the playoff rules were different in overtime," Juszczyk said. "I assume you just want the ball to score a touchdown and win. "I guess that's not the case. I don't totally know the strategy there. We hadn't talked about it, no." |

People keep saying the Bills let us win this game. I don't see how that's true. The Bills change would only have come into effect if the 49ers had scored a TD on the first possession. Since they scored a FG, normal OT rules came into affect.
The rule I didn't know was that if the clock went to 0, another OT period would have started until the Chiefs' possession was done (unless they tied it with a FG). |

Maybe they should have been waking up a little earlier in the morning to go over the rules. Took the head ref 10 seconds to explain it during the coin toss.

It's basically Jimmy G missing Sanders deep all over again. They had a huge chance to win if they just block Jones. Another haunting missed opportunity for the 49ers. |

If you don't know the rules then you aren't a pro.

Right. Chris Jones said the same thing. He wasn't having any of that excuses shit.

1. **** all things Shanahanarat. I'd love to destroy the guy, but he's assembled a hell of a good team and he coached a good game. But he got Mahomesed. Just like Allen, Lamar and Hurts. They played good enough to win, but ran into the best ever. 2. Can you imagine what their team could be if they hadn't biffed up that Trey Lance pick? YIKES. 3. These guys were ****ing good. It's common for us to shit all over teams that Mahomes Mahomes-es. These guys were ****ing incredible and probably beat everybody else, save maybe the Ravens - I didn't watch them get obliterated by the Ravens. But that effort probably beats everybody in the league not named Chiefs. Can you imagine that pass rush against Buffalo? Miami? Those receivers against the Ravens secondary? LOL. They were ****ing good and almost beat us. What we did to win the game was nothing short of incredible. |
