Ok, if the 49ers win in OT without Mahomes touching the ball then the OT rules will change for next season.

Fantastic and Stochastic
Can that even happen? I feel like the new rules are so complicated the refs can’t even explain them properly

I think a touchdown on the opening possession still wins the game but I'm not 100% sure.
No, it is not true.

Pretty sure they said the other team gets the ball even with an initial touchdown. Don't know why the rule would be different in the SB than from the regular season, though.

Nope. This is explicitly the change. The only major difference is that now a touchdown doesn’t win it. The other changes are ancillary (amount of timeouts, clock stoppage rules, etc.)

Ah, just looked it up. Regular season OT still ends on a first possession touchdown but playoff OT both teams get a possession.

I think the ref said defensive TD would end the game on the first possession though.

Another choke by a Shanahan team.
He did because technically both teams would have possessed the ball at that point

Love it. Chiefs with an absolutely epic, legacy defining win. Coming back from behind in OT to win it with a TD. Mahomes already the GOAT, he could retire tomorrow and he is the best ever

Just like how i argued for the Lions coach being aggressive, I don’t know how Shanahan can look at Mahomes across the field and think a FG inside the red zone is the right move
Or how abandoning your identity when you go up 10 is the right move. Purdy is a game manager. He isn’t a game breaker.

Way too soon, but you could argue he’s well on track (or even ahead of pace).
Gotta remember that when Brady did the 3 in 4 years thing that Mahomes just did, he was considered more of a Purdy than a Mahomes. Mahomes is doing this as the unquestioned best QB in the league. It wasn’t until the 18-1 Pats that Brady established himself at that level. Mahomes has been there for years.

Yep, Shanahan has now been involved in 3 SBs where his team had multiple score leads and choked them away. This was probably their last best chance to win it all. The talent will dry up when they have to pay Purdy, and if he was smart he'd be demanding a new contract right now.
nah Mahomes passes the eye test of being clearly better and his stats blow Brady's out of the water on a per game and advanced basis. Brady has longevity and team stats, neither of which I read too much into as both are heavily influenced by luck.

Also, just like excited Jets fans imagined at the beginning of the year. Mecole Hardman with the Super Bowl winning TD.

Yeah. You could say hes on track to be better. But still to do what Brady did, and i hate the Pats.
Andy Reid has the argument now comparing to Landry.
