Patrick Mahomes says on ESPN that the Chiefs would have deferred/kicked if they won the toss in overtime. So they’d know what they needed. “We changed the rules, we can execute them both ways. I don’t know how they’re going to change it this time.”

The danger is it becomes sudden death if you don't win it on the first possession, so you put yourself at a disadvantage if that happens. But if I have Mahomes, I might not worry too much about that.

Yeah, why did the niners take the ball?
