Sure looks that way DRCHOWDER. But the lesser-looking teams will each put up a Super Bowl-like fight against the 49ers.
Well, maybe not the Titans. But you get what I'm saying?

If we've learned one thing this season is anyone can be beat regardless of record and with the impact injuries we have no game should be considered a slam dunk.

What we do know is because of our coaching we should be in every game.

Houston has a great defense and we are still missing key pieces or guys aren't back to full health. It will be a grind and we just took a big hit with our pass rush.
Giants are playing good football and that field is always a nightmare.
Rams are incredibly healthy and not having Warner for this one will be a real problem. They have an incredibly soft setup going into that game too - bye week and then Saints game. Would be amazing to sweep them with all our injuries but hard to see it happening.
Cardinals have a poor record but have been in every game
Panthers have been playing good ball.
Browns defense is a real problem
Titans...ok that may be the one slam dunk win

The Athletic rated the strength of remaining schedule as the 13th toughest in the league. Colts, Bears, and Seahawks at the end of the season will be no picnic.

The only thing I know is that Shanny can work wonder on QBs within their first 2 years... after that, the development stops.. they REGRESS...

and that's because he runs a gimmick offense where the QB already know where to get the ball.. but once that target is covered, it's all over for his play design..

.. and this is why every QB he made look good, eventually suckin..

A gimmick offense that half the league runs? Boy your posts get worse and worse.

NOTHING wrong with a gimmick offense that half of the league runs... any of those teams won the Super Bowl?

The Rams did.

and he's smart enough to have traded for Staff... While Shanny stayed with Grappy...

Don't move the goal posts now bc you just schooled again.

there is NO goal posts... McVay was under MIKE .. he's role was below Kyle and that's the only reason why he is listed under the tree..

But as you see, Shanny may get us to the Super Bowl, but we've lost both because he gets outcoached and can't game plan around his opponents..

You continue to talk nonsense.

Jim Harbaugh got outcoached. He had the better overall roster and he had a team that was dominant in the trenches. The team came in unprepared and nearly got blown out by a lesser squad and needed a crazy blackout to happen to kill the Ravens momentum and STILL managed to make a coaching blunder that prevented him from even seeing a lead in that game, let alone a win.

Shanahan had the teams ready to play. That's why we were ahead most of the first matchup despite the refs minimizing our biggest advantage in that game and why we were ahead most of the second game and had leads late in the 4th qtr as well as OT.

The reason we lost both games was because we had key injuries in those games, didn't get officiating to go our way and players didn't execute plays that were there to be made.

It takes a rare type of person to see what happened in those games and simply twist it around to pretend like we didn't all watch the same thing. Give Shanahan what Harbaugh had in his SB - virtually the whole week 1 roster available to play the whole game and he's winning it.

uhmmm... I believe it is you who talk nonsense..

We had the better overall team (SB) and a HC that could not game plan around KC's weak D. He had both DEEVAH and JUICE goin and suddenly went away from them..

the OT Rules alone, for him or anyone on the team to NOT konw it... who's to blame on that?

DrEll ran away from the question...what made our team better in each SB?

And once again Shanahan knew the OT rules. Stop spreading nonsense Especially when you can't even give a real reason why even IF that was true, what did it change about the actual game?

KS knew the rule and told his captains what he wanted.

I have no problem with the rest of the team not knowing...they didnt matter.

The KS failure was thinking his defense needed to rest and giving KC the last chance with the ball.

You always want the ball in sudden death situations!

Even if KC scored a TD against our gassed defense it didn't matter.

It just means we play 4 down football on offense and have a chance to win with a 2pt conversion.

Exactly. The only people holding onto that ridiculous notion are not serious posters.

Thing was it wasn't sudden death situation. I still believe even with hindsight Kyle made the right decision available at the time.

His defense needed a rest - plan to stop Mahomes after they failed to do so on 3 straight drives. Only thing was we kept them out of the endzone every time we didn't fumble away the ball in our own redzone.

The one thing Kyle may not have accounted for and we'll have no way of knowing whether it would've gone down like that but was the fact that KC claimed they would've gone for a 2pt conversion if we swapped TDs in OT.

I still believe given the info we had going into OT Kyle made the right decision but the execution failed him. Kyle dialed up a TD play if Burford even gets in the way of Chris Jones, let alone blocks him cleanly on that 3rd down.

Worst case the defense still can't hold a TD lead and KC ties it up and we win or lose depending on the 2pt conversion. But if KC was all talk about going for 2 then you have a chance to win with the FG.

Regardless the rules didn't matter - the goal on offense was to score a TD. The goal on defense was to stop them from scoring a TD. The rules in OT didn't change how the game works. It's still football.
