Separation Is In The Preperation
And as stupid as it was to continue trying to score a TD at the end of the first half or declining that penalty in the 4th... he allows his team to live or die in critical real game moments and puts it on his guys to win on the field... and what seems like failures is going to prepare them all better as they head into the Play-Offs. Where its do or die football.
What was wrong with declining the penalty?
That was the right move imo.
Force their hand. Make them execute.
Personally, I would have preferred to force Colin Kaepernick to pass on 3rd and 6 (and then perhaps 4th and 6). He's not very good at completing passing in those situations at the end of games. And it plays more to the strength of our defense.
Well said. I agree hawknation2014. Forcing Kaep to throw on 3rd and 6 rather than allowing him to use a run play to get a yard on 4th and 1. I thought the same tihing...why did he decline that? In the end, it didn't matter.
