I love how it is all unravelling after one season for their fan base.It was a common theme this year (and since his arrival for that matter) that McVay's playcalling has been questionable.
After this Shanahan Meltdown 2, I sincerely hope he will have his epiphany.
Here is the entire 49ers fanbase's summary feeling at the moment (from their forum):

Where was the 9ers defense? Everyone thinks it's so amazing, you'd think reading some Rams boards they had the '85 Bears defense. But they got beat, worked over, and how in the F does that get overlooked again after
It's weird how Shanny's offensive potency works against him in public opinion. His offense puts up 40 some points vs the Pats in the Super Bowl. The defense lets them catch up and win the game. But postgame it's Shanny didn't this and that. Well the head coach is a defensive guru, supposedly. Where the F was the defense???yep, very true. Sherman was Watkins bitch yesterday.
Some notes on all this hoopla surrounding Shanny NOT running the ball last night...
1. Defenses get paid too. Nobody is talking about the fact that the Chiefs actually made some plays defensively that affected Shanny's approach and adjustments not to mention the outcome. It wasn't all Shanny and his mistakes. It's not a given that had they run the ball every play they would have sustained drives and scored TDs.
2. Play calls need to be executed. One guy here one guy there not doing his job can blow it up. This is why football is the ultimate team game. One guy not executing can be the difference between Shanny the genius and Shanny the idiot. Players actually matter, I know it's a hard concept for angry fans but it's the truth.
3. His greatest mistakes in that game had nothing to do with the decision to run the ball or not run the ball. He really called a terrible game from the head coach perspective moreso than play calling.
4. Where was the 9ers defense? Everyone thinks it's so amazing, you'd think reading some Rams boards they had the '85 Bears defense. But they got beat, worked over, and how in the F does that get overlooked again after the same BS happened with Atlanta?
I fuckin hate Shanny Jr. I want to drive my fist into his fuckin entitled face. But I think it's ridiculous how the postgame storylines ignore so much of what constitutes a loss.
Yes he was.I was just thinking this morning, wasnt KS the OC in Atlanta when they decided to not run so the pats could come back and beat them in the SB?

Same exact story today. Get a stop in two of those three drives, even just force field goals, and the 9ers probably win the game. It's crazy to me.
I think Shanny is gonna learn just like McVay did. But both those guys are fine offensive minds and our teams are lucky to have them. Ours is also a better Head Coach IMO.
I never said he was perfect. Just that everyone overlooks an entire side of the ball when playing the blame game.Come on man. The falcons were well inside fg range with an 8 point lead. All they needed to do was run the ball three times, make the cheats use up their timeouts and kick the fg to seal the win. But no, ratboy had to call a long developing pass play on 2nd down leading to Ryan getting sacked, losing the ball and recovering well outside fg range.
It's an indictment on the hc more than ratboy actually. He should have taken charge at that time and ordered ratboy to run the ball.

They were down by 11 with just under 3 minutes left. While his play calling could have been better, it’s not as if the clock was working in their favor.
He was also up by 10 with 12 minutes left and had the following drives:They were down by 11 with just under 3 minutes left. While his play calling could have been better, it’s not as if the clock was working in their favor.
