Head coach Kyle Shanahan and the San Francisco 49ers are coming off a terrible loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 58, which took place on Sunday evening at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. The 49ers started off to a 10-0 lead, holding a normally formidable Kansas City offensive scoreless for most of the first half, but eventually, Shanahan and his team squandered the advantage and succumbed in overtime, allowing Patrick Mahomes and company to claim their third Lombardi Trophy in just five years
Shanahan recently sent shockwaves across the NFL when he revealed that he will fire defensive coordinator Steve Wilks, despite what many saw as a great performance by the 49ers defense against the Chiefs. One of those persons was none other than NFL insider Jason La Canfora of the Washington Post, who recently took to X, the social media network formerly known as Twitter, to criticize Shanahan.
Kyle Shanahan – the eternal scapegoat.” Steve Wilks is fired after shutting down Mahomes for regulatory reasons, despite the fact that no DC jobs are available. Kyle failed to inform the squad of the overtime rules, made a poor judgment in overtime, stopped running the ball, and was unable to score 20 points in 60 minutes. La Canfora wrote, “Kittle, Aiyuk, Deebo, and Purdy are all mundane.”For much of the game on Sunday, the 49ers appeared to be a shell of their regular offensive selves, squandering many opportunities to capitalize on drives deep into Kansas City territory. Expect the Shanahan criticism to continue as the Niners hunt for their new coordinator.
