The San Francisco 49ers’ Super Bowl drought continues after failing to stop the Kansas City Chiefs from taking the game in overtime.
While the game will surely be treated as a classic of a football game, a good chunk of the Niners faithful are already showing aggression towards Kyle Shanahan.
Many believe his failure to tactically match up with Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes ultimately cost them the Lombardi trophy.
Fans call out Kyle Shanahan for blowing Super Bowl leads
Chris Rosvoglou of The Spun wrote that fans are more than frustrated at Shanahan for failing to lead the team during the game’s most important moments. They claimed that he wasn’t aggressive enough when it mattered.
Others ripped on Shanahan’s inability to keep leads during the Super Bowl, which some connect to his lack of aggression during the game.
Where did Shanahan’s San Francisco 49ers fall short?
Looking at the Super Bowl LVIII box score, it’s obvious to the Niners Faithful that the team simply failed to produce on both fronts of the offense.
Christian McCaffrey was the most outstanding playmaker for the Niners throughout the game. He rushed for 80 yards and got into the endzone once. He also caught for another 80 yards albeit ended up unable to catch his way into the red zone.
Brock Purdy was also a terrific QB for the Niners during the game. He passed for 255 yards and 1 touchdown while avoiding costly errors that would allow the Chiefs to cruise past his team.
The biggest issue for the Niners was with the rest of the team’s playmakers. Deebo Samuel was the most notable disappointment, only catching for 33 yards and rushing for 8. Brandon Aiyuk was half-decent with his 49-yard tally, but his lack of red-zone effectiveness cost the team the game. Kyle Juszczyk was also muted with 31 receiving yards and 2 rushing yards.
Shanahan’s ineffective offensive playcalling and adjustments during the biggest game of the year cost them the Super Bowl. Now that he’s blown multiple Super Bowl games, the fate of Kyle Shanahan at Levi’s Stadium has become a legit question that must be asked.
