It was a really stupid play. Lining up the kicking unit to try make late substitutions is asking for trouble. The refs have to let the defence sub, its not like anyone is unclear of that. I didnāt watch enough of it live to know whether all the flags were legit or not, but that play call was dumb
Edit, think Iām talking about a different play actually than the one you mention at the end
yeah I turned off when the niners converted the third down with about a minute left, 1 am and it was 3.30am the night before so was fading badly! didnt realise it was turned over. Just watched it back there. A farce alright.
The play I mentioned was the 4th down punt conversion and subsequent pricking about that cost them a delay of game.
I think they are a poorly coached/sloppy team. No real difference to what they were under Garrett or what Green Bay were for the last five years or so under Mike McCarthy. The individual talent is there.
Kellen Moore appears to have a huge reputation based off very little.
They lost a one score game tbf, even if the Niners should have had the game locked up. They have a lot of the pieces, but they are so hit and miss as to when they put it together. The endless flags are another part of it.
I think they got a huge break with Bosa going off, they had only 7 points on the board deep into the ,3rd quarter. But their discipline did indeed kill them. McCarthy probably gets 1 more year at it
