Will we see Shanahan demonstrate the proper application of time pressure?

Yep McVay is going to make the classic error and try and get the Niners to burn their timeouts.

Don't do that. Score a TD. Your defense can keep the Niners our of the end zone, but if you run the ball they might be able to drive into FG range.

Kupp is light years better than and WR on the Steelers roster.
True, but I'm wondering what he looks like in our offense. He'd be a lot easier to cover if he only ran two routes.

I won't be surprised if JuJu is a top-15 or 20 receiver in a real offense next year.

So far so good...lots of time ticked off to the two minute warning.

Well, that seals the classic give-up draw on 3rd here.

They're set up for one on third and 18.

The Steelers (ahem) “number 1” receiver would be at best a 4 on all four teams that played today.

Don't see Jimmy G moving ball for FG...
But can certainly see Deebo running free like a wrecking ball thru the secondary

He might have called one of them but he'd at least have let 30 more seconds run. He's a dipshit.

Shanahan let some time run before the 2 minute warning.

Nice save on the "first team to host Super Bowl" gaffe, Joe Buck.

I've decided I don't want Garoppolo for the Steelers next year.

Yep. People would kill Tomlin for that.

That was some serious D rising up to the call.

You *know* he's coming.
The Niners won't be able to move on to the. Trey lance era fast enough.
Especially after that last throw.

Stafford is going to the Super Bowl, and he contributed and didn't fuck up too badly. That's remarkable.
