Second and thirteen yards, "Attack!"
Mahomes announced the snap, his voice slicing through the air as intense heat waves cascaded downward.
Indeed, the San Francisco 49ers opted for another blitz.
The reasoning is clear: at this moment, more than the yardage gained or lost in the attack-defense exchange, momentum is paramount. The San Francisco 49ers must suppress the Kansas City Chiefs' resurgence and regain confidence in this fierce competition.
Therefore, in Shanahan's view, since the first blitz was unexpectedly effective, why not try consecutive blitzes? Moreover, the Kansas City Chiefs likely didn't anticipate the San Francisco team, struggling with pressure all season, daring to blitz twice in succession. Shanahan caught Reed off guard.
Blitz. Sack.
