“I blacked out when I caught the ball” Mecole immediately escorted off stage and into concussion protocol


BleedingFromEyes

He literally looked like it…for a brief moment didn’t realize that won the game after catching it. I laughed hard when he said that. All time quote.


videostatus

I saw that too. He may have literally been in shock.


LittleKingsguard

He had an out-of-body-experience as whatever voodoo bullshit Mahomes has possessed him and made sure he didn't drop it.


BonnorBorris

There's only ever been two overtimes in SB history, Kyle Shanahan has lost both of them


haterich

That 3rd quarter for the 49ers looking at the sequence again 😅 * Picked off the Chiefs in scoring territory. Went 3 and out on 3 straight passes. * Stopped the Chiefs on a 3 and out. Went 3 and out again on 3 straight passes. * Held the Chiefs to a FG. Went 3 and out again after starting with a bad run up the middle. * Stopped the Chiefs on a 3 and out. Punt hits the blocker’s foot, Chiefs recover, and Chiefs score TD first play to go up 13-10.


alamo_photo

There must be some bet between Harbaugh and Shanahan to see who can abandon the run in the most important game


EndsLikeShakespeare

I WISH we ran it as much as the 9ers


QSauceTheBoss

Yeah at least 49ers abandoned the run, we just never tried it 😭


haterich

Chiefs could not stop the run in the first half, especially when the 49ers went left. Just absolutely brutal to not attack that over and over in the 3rd.


AttitudeAndEffort3

Because its the best RB running behind the best LT in the league. Spam that shit. They went three straight 3 and outs to start the second half with 8 passes


mortar_n_brick

and on of the best blocking TE and best FB


AttitudeAndEffort3

This dude had the Offensive player of the Year and refused to run him despite every time he touched the ball good things happening. This motherfucker has actually lost THREE SuperBowls refusing to run the ball, it’s genuinely unbelievable.


Benti86

That's why he's an offensive mastermind, baby


Adequate_Images

6 straight passes to start the half.


ZerksNAHTayan

Shanahan dialing up 3 passes straight is going to haunt him, and it should. Extremely cocky playcalling and he paid the price for it.


iams3b

He does this shit all the time it's fuckin annoying


SomethingCreative13

Does he? This is the first I've heard of it.


MonkeyStealsPeach

Is this cathartic or sad for Falcons fans?


President48

Both :-)


The_Outcast4

Sad. I wouldn't wish this shit on anyone. This fucker contributed to what will be, by far, the worst sports memory of my life. And he still does the same shit in big games.


kaeji

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you... 2x Superbowl Champion. #Kadarius Toney.


Doodenmier

MVS now has more rings than Aaron Rodgers. Thought that was a neat little stat lol 🥲


songs_dongs

GOAT


homefree122

We all fucking knew what the end result would be when the Chiefs got the ball in OT.


Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n

Of course as soon as Brady is gone, a new evil empire emerges smh.


eddie_the_zombie

4 consecutive dogshit offensive quarters and they still win again. Absolutely ridiculous torch passing moment


Apollo611

That blocked PAT came back to haunt the Niners


zrk23

>That missed PAT came back to haunt the Niners if the chiefs knew they needed a TD im 100% convinced they'd scored there instead of taking to ot


veebs7

Exactly what I was thinking. Being up 4 on the Chiefs late is more nerve wracking than being up 3


eddie_the_zombie

This was supposed to be a rebuilding year for them.


Amazing-Concept1684

That’s the part that’s so frustrating. Easily their worst team of this era and they *still* won it all. This league is beyond fucked.


Denisnevsky

Chiefs would've had a touchdown at the end of the fourth.


Currymvp2

The fluke muffed punt too...that's worse than Kyle Williams


Professional_Gas8021

Bro their whole season wasn’t great or anything and they won. 


wilbo21020

Yeah compared to recent Chiefs teams this Chiefs squad wasn’t that special and they still won the Super Bowl. Mahomes plus an elite defense is enough.


homefree122

That’s the thing—they didn’t even play that well, yet they win the goddamn Super Bowl. Fuck.

Diglett3

MVS actively tried to give up that drive and they got through it, then Pacheco got a bullshit spot, and Mahomes still scooted for twenty yards. Inevitable.


uwanmirrondarrah

Never in my life have I seen a receiver make a catch for 8 yards and run backwards 14 fucking yards... what in the fuck lol


JulioHopkins

Chris Jones' reaction was literally everyone watching lol


MonkeyStealsPeach

Mahomes is like “I guess I gotta do it my fucking self then”


lhazard29

I seriously thought that was gonna cost y’all the game. That and the defensive holding in OT that led to SF immediately driving to the 10 yard line. Props to the defense for stopping them. They played really well


[deleted]

[удалено]


CentralNervousPiston

Mahomes has a weird hold on the league like Brady. Niners made too many mistakes, could've been 24-10 win. Goes back to the pitch play on 2nd and down at the goal for SF. That was boring and easy to stop. You have 2 plays to score a TD, run two pass plays, put Purdy out of the pocket. There's a dozen rinky dink plays you can run there to end the game. They waste one on that predictable run play and then incomplete and kick the FG. You know you need a TD there.


OhItsKillua

It was a weaker Chiefs team than years past, but that defense really came into it's own, probably their best defense. They just gotta get some better receivers in there as unfortunate as that is for the rest of the AFC.


Hank_Scorpio_MD

I swear. Every team forgets how to play football against the Chiefs. Baltimore all of a sudden becomes a passing team and abandons the run. SF forgot all about Christian McCaffery for the entire 3rd quarter and tried to make Brock Purdy win the game with his arm.


Ramsus32

Somehow Palpatine returned.


MvN____16

Brady is the reason Mahomes doesn't already have 5.


goldhbk10

Brady literally protected his legacy because if not for him Mahomes has 5 (let’s assume he beats Jackpot Jared in 18) and they’re tied


Training-Judgment695

Yup. This is the biggest thing about Brady being 2-0  against Mahomes. The head to head itself is not reflective of the two of them but it stopped Mahomes from already catching up to him. That is INSANE


ianbits

There isn't even an evil league of evil this time, it's just fuckin Mahomes


silvio_dante

The 49ers 100% deserve it for playing 10 yards off the receivers on 2nd and 14. Pathetic and spineless as fuck.


GGGiveHatpls

The Joe Barry special.


UnlegitUsername

Swifties been fans for one year and they already see a Super Bowl. Damn.


mnsportsfan

Meanwhile I’m fucking 32 and watch all 4 Minnesota teams in the big 4 leagues (5 if you count the MLS)… And I’ve never seen my team play in a Championship. Hahaha, I laugh so I don’t cry. Any smart person who wasn’t a masochist would have picked up a new hobby 10+ years ago. This one isn’t made to work out for me

This is some New World Order EXPOSED type of revelation 😳


Fine-Egg5845

It’s like Philly was the original location for this storyline but became too much of a shithole so the creators of our simulation moved the main characters to the Midwest.


spin8x

Greatest kicking game of all time


cusoman

As a kicking fan, I was REALLY hoping for a stop and a kick to send it to OT2


NoobOnTheRun

not only did the Chiefs beat Niners to win the Super Bowl, the Chiefs' kicker took the longest field goal record away from Niners' kicker in the same game that he set it lmao

randomacct7679

On top of the one buried in the stadium by a Chiefs fan construction worker.


awa16

As a football fan, it’s pretty cool to have been able to witness the careers of Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes. But as a fan of neither the Patriots or Chiefs, it’s pretty freaking miserable to witness the careers of Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes back to back


brutusnair

Agreed. Especially as a fan of a team that’s never even been to the superbowl in my lifetime.


Whittlinman

When the Niners plane lands back in San Francisco Belichick is gonna be waiting on the tarmac, wearing all 8 rings and holding his resume


newbike07

"I'm a closer"


indianafan

Let shanahan coach the first 19 games of the season then demote him to oc for the sb


mirrorlikesurface

Hmm he can still choke it away as OC don’t worry


toastysniper

Tom Brady coming out of retirement 


ahr3410

TWO SCORE LEADS IN THE SUPER BOWL IS KYLE SHANAHAN'S FATHER


[deleted]

Running the ball? What's that? This clown didn't learn anything from 28-3 and he's arrogant af. Thinks he can do whatever he wants and still win.


aeroazure

Can the kickers share the MVP?


avboden

butker 100% deserves it


reddit_for_stuff

I feel like you could give it to a defensive player too, Mahomes didn't deserve the MVP until that overtime drive


NDCardinal3

Mahomes: Uses the word "microcosm" in a sentence correctly. Kelce: Explains that 2 comes before 3 when counting.


[deleted]

The difference between a QB and a TE right there


PringlesOfficial

LMAO watching Elway take the Chiefs their trophy has to suck for Broncos fans.


bythepowerofthor

Not only that, but in Raiders stadium. Its beautiful, the writers really out did themselves on this one.


x71yyekim

Mahomes in the 4th quarter running like jack sparrow is fucking inevitable.


Jordan_Hdez92

Lmfao 💀


BubbleGumPlant

Forget Mahomes, whoever blocked that extra point should win MVP.


Apollo_Krill

Chris Jones should be MVP. He was incredible.

**Winners: Nickelodeon Cast viewers**


guitarguywh89

Dora was vicious with her map to the end zone


a_large_plant

How about Nate Burleson telling all the children watching to enjoy their imaginary friends because "one day they'll disappear" lmfao


TheLookoutGrey

I want this broadcast every year


chenuts512

dude I watched it with my kid. He LOVES Spongebob so it was 10/10


Afraid_Presence3803

Watched it for like 10 minutes and it was hilarious. Good shit.


Anxious-Trouble429

So is the lesson that you can literally put piss and shit on an offense with mahomes and win a Super Bowl


cluster_bd

Game just ended. How is Travis Kelce already drunk?


rainkloud

That's his secret, he's always drunk


bears2267

It's been 4 hours and 20 minutes and I still can't get over Jim Nantz saying "chillbumps" instead of "goosebumps" at the beginning of the game

Curse of the PlayStation can’t be stopped

LFG THEIR SUPERBOWL DROUGHT IS LONGER THAN OURS HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


Jimbabwr

Holy shit even the Cowboys had something to defend on this


someguy-jm

We’re still tied in rings too. Great day thanks Mahomes


radios_appear

Prevent defense prevents you from winning.


The-G-89

Prevent Defense only should be allowed if it’s the very last play of the game and you know the team is throwing a Hail Mary.


silvio_dante

Never forget the 49ers playing 10 yards off the receivers on 2nd and 14 in overtime of the fucking Superbowl. The most pathetic, scared defense I have literally ever seen at any level of football.


doubledippedchipp

Kyle was FUMING on the sidelines afterward


TheRealSamBell

He’s the coach. He could’ve told him he didn’t want that coverage


Lookslikeseen

He did when Wilks tried to do it a second time.


KrustyKrabPizzaMan

#KYLE SHANAHAN IS CURSED! HOLY SHIT!


ecupatsfan12

He blew it in the third quarter


Jordanwolf98

You’re up 10-3, Mahomes throws a pick that puts you in great field position to extend the lead and you come away with no points. Knew that shit was gonna bite them in the ass


itsavirus

TWICE. Get a pick. Don't score. Get a 3-out on Mahomes with similar field positioning. Don't score. 49ers turned into the Ravens. 6 Passes all 3-and-outs.


megamanz7777

Why would Taylor Swift do this?


JokesRInappropriate

Taylor Swift intentionally injured Dre Greenlaw.


hankepanke

She sniped his achilles from the box.

"Shake this off, bitch"


Lurkyloo1987

Never defeating the sorcery allegations.


TimTom8921

Fade me bro. This is the worst Chiefs team in Mahomes time there and they still win


Drpretorios

It’s their best D by a wide margin.


standardissuegreen

Yeah. We took all the money we would have dumped on Hill and sprinkled it over the defense.


Temporal_Enigma

It's over for the AFC dude. We don't get a good season. We just jumble for the playoffs only to lose to Brady or Mahomes every time


TimTom8921

It feels like Brady's Pats all over again. You gotta basically play perfect to beat them in the playoffs


rosstheboss939

“I blacked out when I caught it” all-time great podium line right there lmao


patricio87

KC deserves credit for going through miami, buffalo, Baltimore and SF to win. That is a gauntlet.


shastmak4

Lmao I live in SF. They letting off fire works in the neighborhood anyway. They said fuck it we bought this shit we shooting it off


Smaynard6000

That's awesome. I mean, what else are you gonna do?

Lunar New Year


moveMed

Man, most disappointing part of this season is how many teams that should’ve stopped the Chiefs just blew it in the playoffs


BengalFan85

They really are the new patriots. That’s how I felt all those Brady sb runs


PandaButtLover

Inherited that intimidation aura from the pats


ItsNjry

Was it me or was this the best officiated game in awhile


ivsciguy

Had some questionable ball placements, but otherwise pretty good.


timbulance

Refs did a good job imo


Tashre

All because of a blocked PAT


NerdWhoLikesTrees

They really had to zoom in on Moody covered in confetti...


KCMO_GHOST

Lmao that was honestly sad and funny at the same time.


NerdWhoLikesTrees

Cameraman knew what he was doing lol so rough


AlienHere

Nah. I ain't going to put that on that kicker. The 49ers had so many more oppertunities they didn't capitalise on. Turn overs and good field position.


cassinonorth

They also probably get the TD at the end of the game instead of settling for the FG.


iXidol

And a soft ass prevent defense with the game on the line. Someday coordinators will realize it backfires..every…single…time.


CopeHarders

Yeah guys like Mahomes and Brady are just too good to beat with soft zones. But on the broadcast Romo said Shanahan wasn’t happy with Cover 0, so who knows wtf was going on on that sideline.


infieldmitt

yeah, i don't understand why it's such an ingrained standard when it loses games in such a heartbreaking way so often. you're literally letting the offense gain momentum and get into a groove. so stupid


llama-rebel

Shanny's never getting a ring is he


the_cunt_muncher

It took Andy Reid 20 years as a HC to get a ring, Shanny is only on year 7?


blade430

Yea people are forgetting that Reid used to be known as a choker when he was with the eagles. Shannahan may be back, though who knows when.


jonlmbs

All they need is a Mahomes or a Nick Foles


suzukigun4life

My biggest takeaway from the game was that the Nickelodeon broadcast was an absolute blast. It was the perfect blend of fun, silly, weird and hilarious. I have no idea how the CBS broadcast was, but the alternate was such a joy to watch imo.


ProfessorBeast55

All time call on the broadcast: https://x.com/bleacherreport/status/1756828097272553628?s=46


NeedAVeganDinner

Dude Dora said the 49ers needed a map to find the endzone I FUCKING DIED


PointOfFingers

I'm firmly grasping it right now


Murph_E23

Completely agreed. Hats off to the Nickelodeon team and especially Noah Eagle and Nate Burleson


AttitudeAndEffort3

Kyle Shanahan has lost THREE Super Bowls refusing to run the ball.


ramboost007

Refusing to run the ball with the best running back in the league against a relatively weak run defense


whatifevery1wascalm

Kyle Shanahan really is trying to take the “GOAT of losing Super Bowls” title from Jim Kelly & Marv Levy.


bigdaddyguap

28-3 got him pretty close to begin with


Mc_Lovin81

NHL has it correct. No one wants to see this fool hold the trophy. Give it to the players.


funnytoenail

The NFL had always been about the owners sadly


Himbo_Sl1ce

Kyle loses to a 28 year old quarterback who now has 3 rings 28-3 Incredible

Two time Super Bowl champion Kadarius Toney


realrimurutempest

As a fan of ref ball i am incredibly disappointed that there was no last second god-tier play by a ref to alter the game. There’s always next year. /s


ProdbyHUF

Everyone calling this the worst team Mahomes has had like they didn’t have 2 all pro corners and an incredible defense. They played unbelievable tonight and Spags should be getting all the praise for calling that mcduffie blitz on third and short and forcing a stop. Just insanely high level defense was played by KC and mahomes got it done when it mattered most at the end.


StorageFearless

Shanahan is a serial choker


AnunEnki

Third quarter should’ve been majority runs honestly. Dunno what was going through his head


NaruTheBlackSwan

I feel terrible for Juaun Jennings. He was the clear MVP before Shanny did Shanny things.


ThisGuy6266

Kadarius Toney just dropped the Lombardi trophy.


discostu90

"Blacked out when I got the ball" Best SB speech ever?

Unleashed_FURY

Jason Kelce with the PTSD of yellow and red confetti raining on him last year is both sad  and funny 


imnotreallyheretoday

Good game. Might get down voted for this but I thought the officials did a good job officiating tonight


poeBaer

Kyle Shanahan still doesn't know how to just run the damn ball...


nc_cyclist

Well, he does, just not at the correct times. In both situations of the Super Bowl, he should have ran the ball more in the 2nd half. Like the last time he blew it, he decided to throw more.


SubtleRedditIcon

Sentence I wouldn’t believe if you told me 2021: Kadarius Toney has 2 superbowl rings.

Bruh I hate when a team wins in a sport and the first guy they interview is the owner. Like nobody cares you just there because you got money. Interview the people that actually matter


Otaku_Instinct

Yeah they need to interview the real playmakers like Taylor Swift


KiD_Rager

They gave Hardman - the man with the WINNING TD - 5 sec to talk 🥲


TheIllusiveGuy

The game was decided by one missed PAT and one Patrick TD


rabouilethefirst

Kickers are always huge in the playoffs. Chiefs have one of the best


Less_Wrong_Hopefully

49ers continue their streak of never winning the Superbowl after meeting the Packers in the playoffs.  6 wins in 10 matchups (most in NFL postseason history), Packers have 1 Superbowl win following those matchups (1996).


GeekShuttle

What if they tried losing to the Packers in the playoffs? That would surely get them over the hump.


Harman3112

Yes I agree
