Why 49ers HC Kyle Shanahan’s reasoning for receiving in overtime was flawed

The San Francisco 49ers head coach, Kyle Shanahan, chose to receive the ball first in overtime during their game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Shanahan's reasoning was that he wanted his team to have the third possession in a sudden-death format, believing that both teams would score and the 49ers would have a chance to win. However, the Chiefs had a different plan. They were prepared to go for two points if the 49ers scored a touchdown. This flawed reasoning ultimately led to the Chiefs winning the game and Shanahan facing criticism for his decision. The Chiefs' aggressive approach and Shanahan's failure to anticipate it highlight the flaws in his overtime plan.
