Description

In a bold move, the San Francisco Forty-Niners chose to receive the opening kickoff in Week Thirteen, aiming to secure the wind advantage in the fourth quarter. Coach Kyle Shanahans strategic decision was influenced by the strong winds expected, which could impact throwing and kicking. Later, a successful third-down conversion and a big play to George Kittle before halftime gave the Forty-Niners a crucial lead, which they maintained throughout the game.
