What’d He Do Wrong? 3rd & 15 in Super Bowl LIV

(Note: the audio on the previous video that I uploaded went out after 5 minutes.  I have uploaded a new one that is working fine.  Sorry for the inconvenience.)

One play doesn’t lose you a football game but one play can definitely swing the momentum and that’s exactly what happened on this play in Super Bowl LIV between the Chiefs and the 49ers.

Why did it happen though?  I talk about the why’s in this video as I breakdown the play and where the reads went wrong.  Was it just a genius play by Andy Reid and the Chiefs or was it just a major brain fart by the 49ers secondary.

I address both of those things in this breakdown and tell you that one very important thing that I think defensive backs and cornerbacks in particular need to get back to doing.

Some of you may disagree with my outlook on this and that’s fine.  You can tell me your thoughts via email at: cwilson@alleyesdbcamp.com – Thank you for being a member.
