He didn't need to ask anyone to throw the game. All Kyle needed to do was to mess with the playcall and he did to some extent such as call for a run play when you are 3rd and long.

But, like I said unfortunately the Seahawks was just too crap which left us with no choice but to kick a FG for the win.


Niners must lead the league in meaningless wins over the last few seasons.
This organization is so poorly run that they can't even tank right.
Just dropped to #4. Awesome.

How did we win with a backup qb? That is impossible.

Tanking is for fans.

Players play for their future.

Coaches coach for their future.

If any coach were to make a blatant move to ensure a loss and a better draft position, he would lose the support of the team. Especially a young team.
This whole thread is ridiculous... End it now

GMs plan for the future.
Maybe Garnett or some PS OT could've gotten some quality PT the last few weeks.
Time to trade down if you can and buy an ER in FA.
Wonder if we end up with the 4th or 5th pick, if Denver would trade up for a QB? Perhaps we could swap 1st round picks, and get Chubb from them for moving down? Chubb becomes the edge rusher we need, and then with the pick we get from Denver, we could pick best player available. Still can't believe the Browns took that DB at 4 instead of Chubb. That DB has been good, but Chubb is putting up damn good numbers as a rookie.
