Kyle Shanahan has lost three Super Bowls -- one as offensive coordinator for the Falcons and two as head coach for the 49ers.
Mike Shanahan, Kyle's father, won three Super bowls -- one as offensive coordinator for the 49ers and two as head coach for the Broncos.Mike had two Hall of Fame quarterbacks -- Steve Young and John Elway. And yet, when Mike had second-half leads in those Super Bowls, he ran the freaking ball. In 1994, the 49ers ran the ball 51.4 percent of the time in the second half against the Chargers, and that was with Jerry Rice on the field. In 1997, the Broncos ran the ball 63.
Keep in mind, Kyle had leads after halftime in all three of those games, and he did not have a Hall of Fame quarterback in any of them. Instead, he had outstanding running backs such as Raheem Mostert and Christian McCaffrey. So why the heck did Kyle pass so much when his father would have run the ball?Grant Cohn has covered the San Francisco 49ers daily since 2011.
