Brees first four drives: perfect QB rating 4 TDs. Saints lead 27-14. Looked unstoppable.

Shanahan executes successful trick play for 49ers TD on next SF drive and score is 27-21.

Next Saints drive: Payton pulls Brees on 1st and 3rd down in SF territory and Saints stopped on two horrible gimmick plays. Didnt score again in the half and trailed most of the rest of the way.

That summarizes Payton so well. Dude is a fricking clown. Ruined all Saints momentum trying to look smarter than Shanahan.

We chased those points all day and never got them back.

Disgusting decisions that will cost us home field advantage and possibly a first round bye.

His misuse of Murray is asinine

The fricking 3rd and short call with Taysom was absurd

Yeah at that point 49ers we’re breaking physically on defense. We were moving them 7 yards down the field. Then we give up on the run and Murray touches the ball 2 more times the rest of the game.

Not using Murray when he’s beasting is just stupid. Kamara fumble actually turned the game around.

There were numerous turning points but the dagger was 3rd and 16 stop and the call on Chauncy for 15 and auto 1st down

This series was dumbfounding.

I asked my 10 year old who do you think the 49ers want throwing the ball, Drew Brees or Taysom Hill?

He gave me the correct answer.

And going for 2 in the first quarter is just plain dumb. It makes zero sense.

Better off taking the 15 yard penalty on the kickoff and executing an on sides kick.

How about 3rd and 18 from their 47 after the Thomas Offensive Pass Interference and we throw a fricking swing pass to Kamara that Bosa tips? Brees had Thomas in the slant for 10 and Lutz would have a chance at a 55 yarder.

Would have made it 36-35

I said it in the game thread - the game plan involved Cook.

Him going out caused them to have to refigure out their offense.

But 46 points and y'all are going to try and place blame on the offense?

To an extent, yes. Running Murray would have kept the ball out of the 49ers hands. The Saints had a solid lead at that point and Murray should have ended up with at least twenty carries.

It's amazing. Dennis frickin Allen got schooled by Kyle Shanahan today yet all anyone wants to do is bitch about Payton. Allen shouldn't even get paid for his absolute shite game plan he put together this week. The offense puts up 46 points & 450+ yards & Payton is the scapegoat here? What is wrong with some people?

Exactly
They struggled to recover from the loss of Cook until the 4th quarter

I certainly agree that Sean deserves criticism for that play. It was bad.

...but u have to give him credit for the gameplan that put up 46 on the “best D in the league”

Are you dense?

How about kamara fumbling on our own 20? or wherever it was. We were up 30-28 and had momentum bc we just got a 3 and out. First play boom kamara coughs it up. TD niners
