It's almost that they weren't paying attention to what the Chiefs have been doing the ENTIRE postseason...

When I played, back in the early 80's, we had a sign that read: When we lose say nothing and when we win say less.
apbadogs
That “let’s all run to the end zone and pose” bullshit is played out. Just looks stupid.
nitzer280
I'm a huge fan of football but this type of group endzone posing celebration is so cringe worthy.
Jagerbeast
If there was 12 minutes left in the game, its more likely it was 30 or 45 minutes later
FlikzFactory
Major karma....stop it with the stupid team photos! Bet no 49er is keeping that one.
MechaNinja
Wait, what? the Patriots weren't there?
SmokyDoggg
KO'd in the first playoff round by the Titans of all teams. The titans really surprised this year
eddbrowne
they couldn't get tickets

CSlice06
To be fair, every other team in the NFL has done this when they get a turnover. All teams are lame and obnoxious for doing it, not just SF
parkway
Not every time. Plenty of INTs are just nonchalant celebrations. You wouldn't do this in the first quarter.
CSlice06
And at least they were winning at the time. Others have done it while behind
Shineupordown
Never celebrate too early..just a recipe to lose -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2cK2D2Iams

This is so much better
TCGView
Both the 49ers and the Texans will tell you...never go to sleep on the Chiefs.

Worst trend in the NFL right now is entire defenses running to the endzone after any turnover. There's protocol for that: Score a TD.

Act like you have been there before and this wont happen

Or enjoy the moment you are in ? Winning teams celebrate, and nothing Is said.

Old school player here, Just hand the ball to the ref and walk off. Celebrate after game over.
jesasterous
Yup

If I was still coaching, I'd bench a kid for signalling their own 1st down. That shit is annoying and played out.

Literally every nfl team did this all year long with interceptions

ManInTheBox21
"ok guys... all we have to do is not give up 21 unanswered points in the 4th quarter, ok?.... FUCK"
WellWellWellLookWhoItIs
All they had to was not give up 14 unanswered points. They went the extra mile.
ManInTheBox21
lol true. If you're going to do something, do it 100% I say.
parkway
Well, 10 really.

If they only wanted to tie.

idk i thought last years was fine too. was a defensive showcase last year as opposed to flinging the ball. the defenses were worse this time

That group celebration was a little excessive... not disappointed that they lost.

Why? Literally every team does this on inteceptions all year long
plustootwostoopid
It’s kind of annoying every time I see it. I get being happy for a big play, but this just seems over the top.
ILikeToCallItLostWages
It's a bunch of super athletes super athleting against each other on live television for millions of dollars. Every second is over the top.

I see your point. I think I’d feel like a fool though if I did that and ended up losing the game.

My sister said it was an "achievement for Latino culture" (wtf?), so dad asked if she meant the twerking or the stripper pole.

Idk what your sister's reason was, but it's the first time two Latinos have headlined the show. There's only been 1 Latino headliner before,
StewedTomaters
and they made a decent amount of social commentary on their behalf while still being entertaining. The same people who got all up in arms

MySpiritAnimalIsTheUnpopularOpinionPuffin
They didn't show it on the main camera, but after they ran that TD to make 31, the team posed in the endzone to mock SF.
username12345678
Would love to see that
TheMysteriousBanana
Oh... they showed it alright. was F*ing hilarious.
anjorni
Dude, btw -what was with that glitch at the end? Why??!?!!
3dartwork
So you were there to see it happen? How did you see it if it wasn't broadcast?
boondoggling
You see them running over and doing it in the corner of the screen then they cut away
valdbagina69420
I thought the defense did that after the Chiefs intercepted it with like a minute left. It would be funny if they did it twice ?
daromander
Yeah, well KC shouldn't have scored that TD. It gave SF the ball back and a chance to win
3dartwork
"...shouldn't have scored that TD SO QUICKLY." They had to score at some point.
daromander
They could have kneeled the game out. But yeah, I guess my annoyance with it was how quickly it was scored
3dartwork
KC scored with 2:40 left and SF had their 3 TOs. They'd have to get a first down and possibly two before kneeling it out.
daromander
The final TD was scored with 1:12 left and SF having 2 TOs left. If they didn't score they could have kneeled out the clock
MikeMcAwesome91
Surely this was an attempt at humor...
daromander
https://www.espn.com/nfl/news/story?id=3158572
daromander
Nope. Just football logic
showmethatbutthole
No bro. Just no
MikeMcAwesome91
And you're aware that KC won the game?
daromander
Yeah? Does that change the fact that they might have made a mistake in their gameplan?
MySpiritAnimalIsTheUnpopularOpinionPuffin
How? A TD, successful 2-point conversion and a field goal would have at least tied the game. As soon as KC would get the ball back after a
MySpiritAnimalIsTheUnpopularOpinionPuffin
TD and a 2-point conversion, they would stall out the rest of the game and still win 28-31.
RottedOnion
Yeah they realistically had to score a TD, then onside kick and recover it and score again on the return. There just wasn't time.
MySpiritAnimalIsTheUnpopularOpinionPuffin
That last TD sealed the win. Unless you're the Falcons.
daromander
Onside kick for SF. KC could have just kneeled out the game or at least got the clock under 30 seconds with SF having no time outs
dotcomaphobe
It was a two-possession deficit. They did the right thing.
daromander
Oh, it would be difficult. But id rather it be impossible for the other team to win rather than just difficult
daromander

birkenstocksarerad
they do that after every turnover, every team does this
OhioSucks
No they don’t
birkenstocksarerad
oh ok youre right i made that up to get 13 internet points
OhioSucks
They just don’t. Sorry you’re wrong and too emotionally weak to accept that.
birkenstocksarerad
ok ALMOST everytime is that fucking better? j
ProbablyNotMegatron
They just went up by 10 points in the Super Bowl in the 4th quarter and were celebrating. There’s nothing wrong with this even if they lost
SmokyDoggg
It looks bad when you manage to fuck up and blow the lead though. Now they're laughingstocks
WaffleDestroyer
It shows that anything can happen with 11 minutes still on the clock.
TableArizona
Shit anything could happen with t on the clock
Creid233
Honestly, if you're 10+ points up on Mahomes going into late game, that's when you should be most afraid.

Right? Call me an old curmudgeon, but Jerry Rice would never engage in such behavior.

Jerry Rice let his work ethic and ability speak for him...and I was a Cris Carter fan so old curmudgeons unite I guess.
DomPettyAndTheLawnRakers
I wish i could upvote more than once. You shouldn't be so far down.
parkway
12 minutes is a lifetime. Celebrate when it's like, 1 minute left and someone makes a game ending INT.
WaffleDestroyer
This would make more sense
DomPettyAndTheLawnRakers
It is known. But these people have fought for basically their entire life to make it to this game. I cant see the point of criticizing - 1/2
DomPettyAndTheLawnRakers
Them for being excited. They are at the highest point in their life. Of course hind sight says it was for nothing. But not in the moment.
rockchalker73
49ers has a 96% chance of winning in the 4th quarter

I hope people in vegas who were betting money on the 49ers lost a ton of money I hope they lost all their hopes and dreams

Not really. They're literally statistics.

I hear ya. They just don’t take into account the actual situation with the teams playing and the flow of the game... etc.
KyleButNotThatKyle
That is all subjective. Same reason why it can be raining but still only be a 60% chance of rain. It's based on times w similar conditions

Down by 10, with 12ish mins to go? Doesn't feel like 96%

EyeSpyABreathtakingPerson
Nah, the Chiefs can't make their move until they're down by double digits. They lull you into a false sense of security first.

Never blow your wad in the 1st half. Pacing children, pacing.
reineseele
As a none american football expert from a none US country...was it underdog style = really insane game change?
EyeSpyABreathtakingPerson
More or less felt like a momentum change. The Chiefs turned it on and then the 49ers kinda panicked and fell apart trying to catch back up.
MotrinandDischarge
I also think someone on the Chiefs staff kicked the O line's ass to get them to focus, they finally gave Mahomes time to work his magic.
snekonaplen
Actually bookies had this game at the Chiefs winning by 1 point and the score totaling 54 points. So basically they were very well matched
Creid233
Sorta? Chiefs came from behind to score 3 times without letting the other team score any, for the win.
Creid233
But they'd done this comeback so many times this season they had a reputation for it.

It wasn't, it just happened to occur. This is what people don't get about statistics.
Reelthreat
Stats can be skewed. Those stats where for all NFL, redo for just KC and their 2019-2020 season and they would be drastically different
tacticusprime
No. That's not how statistics works.
Reelthreat
So there is no statistical relevance that KC had X comebacks of 10 or more points in the 4th quarter in the 2019/2020 season?
tacticusprime
You can be right that something was unlikely, even if it eventually happened.
snekonaplen
No once it happened it is 100% likely to happen. Statistics be like that too
tacticusprime
... who gives a fuck? Getting 10 million heads in a row is 100% once it happens. That tells you nothing.
ImNotTaylorSwift
No. Once it happened, it 100% happened. Happening and likelihood are two different things.

It wasn’t even 4th down... at least try to run it ONCE when you have Marshawn in his prime, multiple time outs, and INCHES to go.
dan578
They did run it once...gained a few yard then pats went goal line so they thought "let's try a pass play that has never not worked for us"
inb4thewar
The issue is that if they ran it on that down, they would have "lost" a down due to time. They threw to get an extra crack at the endzone.1/
inb4thewar
There's also data indicating that teams are actually more likely to turn the ball over running than throwing so close to the the goal line.2
