Defense did not show up
The game wasn't definitively out of reach until it was about 40 seconds left to play. All picks matter. You pull your goalie in every playoff game in hockey, even if you're down by 2. 3 even.
This was SF's game to lose, and they lost it. The defense played well enough through 3 quarters. KC was the comeback kid all through these playoffs, so you know you have to hold them off as long as you can, while continuing to put up points.
You think clock management is exclusively the responsibility of the sideline?
Uh huh. You win. He's an "elite" monster.
Hooray for them. Garoppolo has an NFC championship ring that's just as pretty as a Super Bowl ring. The pr0n-stars'll all be mega-impressed.
I wouldn't put him in the same category with Lamar Jackson, for example. And neither would you.
Tannehill would be happy with a mid-range, ~$12-15mil contract, maybe even incentive-laden. Signing Henry is a no-brainer, and roster management isn't too difficult now that the Mariota problem goes away.
SF's Garoppolo problem manifests in a big way after next season, since they have a lot of young, talented players (Samuel, Bosa, etc.) that will need to get locked into the next contract. Paying one guy $24-25mil a year requires a dividend to justify that kind of money.
It's @Tom Ace's descriptor, from a long time ago.
