If you are using Mahomes as a comparison, then every other QB in the NFL is a game manager.  

Thats basically what cam said.  Game changers are like 4-5 players, he listed Mahomes, Jackson, Burrow, Allen and Rodgers.  The rest are varying degrees of game managers, knowing how to get the ball in the hands of the playmakers.

I would be absolutely sick to my stomach if it was the Panthers losing like that. Wow. 

I don't hate the Cheifs or anything, I just wanted to see someone else win lol. 

Don't we play them next year? yeesh

The crazy thing is I don't know if ANYONE knew who Patrick Mahomes was before he was drafted outside of Texas Tech fans. One day I would really like to hear/see the in depth story of how Mahomes was scouted on and ultimately picked by the Cheifs.

You're the HC & in OT. You win the coin toss against a proven SB HC.

You choose to take the ball first. Means you need to score a TD & play safe defense or score a FG & play aggressive defense.

You defer & can play standard defense knowing you will coach to win on offense & have a possible out if you come up short.

Shanahan lost this SB when the heat was turned up. He wasn't prepared for a playoff OT coin toss decision. Called it like a regular season game.

Wilks went to his old ways, in fact Shanahan called a timeout to get Wilks to get their D outta cover zero/zone cloud when KC had the ball in OT.

49ers offense was bad the entire game.

 

Expecting Wilks to save them the entire game + overtime was asking for trouble.

 

Purdy is a game manager.

Purdy threw for what? Like 17 yards for nearly half the game when the Niners forgot they could run the ball? They tried to lean on him and in the process they let the Chiefs back in the game.

He's playing a tough D. 

 

Didn't Mahomes have a similar drought in the middle of this game?

Purdy was okay, a bit better than I expected as I figured KC's D would force some really bad decisions/throws. Purdy was not asked to do much at all and had some missed throws but no turnovers and overall solid. He did impress me honestly, but he didn't do anything today to shed the game manager label.

    • MORGAN ON PLAY CALLER FOR CANALES   "I think that's really his [Canales'] call," he stated. "I think if he wants to promote somebody into being the play-caller or bring somebody from the outside. We haven't really talked about that. But that is something that I'm sure we'll talk about. We talk about every decision together. If he feels like he needs to add somebody or promote somebody into being the play-caller, then I trust him."  
    • Dude, he cannot see the field, when his feet are not set he throws ducks.   What the fug are you watching?
    • I'm looking at the final drive, and that's where I'm laying the blame at Bryce's feet. Stepping up to the line, 38 seconds left, 3 time outs on the clock. 30 yards needed to attempt a FG. It's not Bryce's job to call the plays, that's DC's and it was terrible play calling.  It's Bryce's job to read what the defense is giving him at the line. The middle of the field is open. Rams are guarding against the deep ball and bringing pressure leaving the middle of the field ripe for the taking. Knowing his line not holding up for long, Bryce should have read the defense, called the audible, and thrown to the middle of the field for 6- 8 yards, like you said, quick slants would have worked. Then run either hurry up or call a TO. We had time. He has to make the adjustments. Any QB has to make the adjustments.  The pass Horn dropped hit his hands but was at his knees. Should he have slid and caught it? Probably. Was the pass a good one? No it wasn't. Both players were at fault, not just Horn. Let's not pretend that Bryce threw a beautiful pass that hit the receiver chest high right in the hands in perfect stride because that damn sure wasn't the throw.  The defense didn't choke away a lead. They never had a real lead. Choking away a lead is being up by multiple scores late in the 4th and losing. We were up by 4 and handed the ball back to a potential MVP with an All pro WR and potential future HoF WR2. One score games in the 4th are a slug fest. 28-3. That's choking away a lead.  I don't solely blame Bryce for the game, but you seem to solely blame the defense for the game because they went to prevent after losing Horn. You are forgetting the short field that the offense left them that led to the early Puka TD on one of our 2 failed 4th down conversions. Our defense has been given very limited resources over the past 3 years while we have tried to put everything possible around Bryce. We added a little bit to the D this year after giving up a NFL record in points last year. Our defense overachieved based on what they've been given to work with.
