Shanahans stupid playcalling at the end of the half.
3rd and 15.
Shanahan has 1st and 10 at the 49 and he calls 4 pass plays with 1 minute 49 left
One pass was Jones getting blocked so well he was in the passing lane.
The other pass he had Sanders wide open for a TD.
How can you blame that on play calling?
Not to mention, Kittle wide open for a 1st down before our 1st FG and mismatched on a LB on the offensive PI.
Finally, the most penalized Defense in the NFL has no penalties called on them, and we had a crucial 3rd down stop negated by a PI in the endzone.
we were leading 20-17 with the ball. After gaining 5 on first down, Shanny calls 2 passes. Why not keep running? That's the play calling issue
Maybe he trusted his quarterback to convert instead of playing like a liability
Well that's bad judgment then. The stats and math back up running the ball when you are averaging over 5 per carry.
