That said I do get it. You can't trade FGs for TDs and at that point the defense was a sieve. The things that got me was his use of TOs at end of first half. He used two to stop the clock but when SF converted and had 1st in goal from 1 he didn't use last one, they drained the clock then McCafferty scored next play. They use the final TO they have over 30 seconds left and we've seen that is plenty of time to get into FG range. In the 4th quarter they went for it on 4th and 8 from around 25 yard line, they got a penalty but then eventually turned it over on downs. I don't get it. At that point with Mike Evans out SF couldn't move the ball you kick the FG with 4-5 minutes left then only need a FG to tie. Instead they spent so much time they were forced to go for a TD. You had all the momentum. Get the points, then get the stop.

Re: Just another loss post game who gives a fuck thread
Analytics said 4th and less than 11 to go for it in that situation. They put a graphic on screen to say the same.
Would I go for it with that much time left? If I hadn't already been awful on 3rd and 4th down to that point, maybe. But given how the game had gone and that we'd held them to 3 pts 2nd half, I kick the FG then play for the win/tie on the next drive. He's now playing win or bust football, which is great psychologically if you win (Bears Hail Mary) but it comes back to bite you in the NFL if you keep doing it. Barring a miracle recovery to 11 or 12 wins, I think he's done. |
