Kyle Shanahan details how wind affected his decisions in 49ers’ win vs. Browns
“The 49ers always choose to defer when winning the opening coin toss, so they have a chance to possess the ball on back-to-back possessions at the end of the second quarter and beginning of the third.
But on Sunday, Shanahan opted to receive the opening kickoff after winning the coin toss. That way, the 49ers could determine which direction they would be heading in the fourth quarter to take advantage of the wind.
“I wanted a chance to choose to have the wind at our back in the fourth quarter,” Shanahan said, “and that was the only way to get that done.”
Shanahan said he made that decision only because of the unique weather conditions, which consisted of 20 mph winds with gusts of 35 mph or greater.“
Kyle Shanahan shares 49ers updates day after Week 13 win vs. Browns
“….I love how Jauan plays. I think Jauan plays to the whistle as well as any player in this league. He’s extremely aggressive and plays as hard as he can to the whistle and he’s been doing that, as Niner fans know and you guys know, since he’s been here. I think sometimes that offends other players and rubs people the wrong way because they’re not used to people going that hard to the whistle. But I think what J.J. is very good at is not breaking rules. It’s just like at Arizona last year when he went to the whistle so hard it offended some of their corners, and they started throwing punches, and unfortunately, J.J. got kicked out too. But not because he didn’t throw a punch or anything. I think J.J.’s been really good at not breaking rules that way, and he gets other guys to break them a lot on him.”
