After the San Francisco 49ers‘ devastating loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 58, several people started pointing fingers trying to determine who was to blame for the defeat. Many pointed at Kyle Shanahan, as some players didn’t realize that having the ball second in overtime would’ve been an advantage. Many others blamed rookie kicker Jake Moody for having an extra point blocked, despite him making two 50-plus yard field goals earlier in the game.
Well, based on a tweet from 49ers O-lineman Jon Feliciano, Feliciano believes his teammate and fellow offensive lineman Spencer Burford is to blame for San Francisco not getting a first down while they were in the redzone.
Feliciano tweet and fallout explained
Feliciano responded to a tweet blaming right tackle Colton McKivitz for not blocking Chris Jones on a pivotal third down in overtime. Feliciano claimed that Jones was not McKivitz’s man to block.
This obviously created another question. Who was supposed to block Jones?
So who’s guy was it? Although not his guy, a quick chop to disrupt his pass rush route could’ve given Purdy just enough time to get a pass off. o-line and special teams have been this teams weakness all year. Great run blockers but get smoked on the pass. #alwaysthebridesmade
