New mic'd up video released by the NFL makes the San Francisco 49ers' doomed overtime decision look even worse.
With the game tied 19-19 at the end of regulation, the 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs headed to the first Super Bowl with new overtime rules. Instead of sudden-death overtime, both teams would now have a chance to possess the ball, even if the first team to go on offense scored a touchdown. The 49ers, to the shock of just about everyone watching, elected to take the ball first — meaning they'd potentially give the Chiefs the last chance.
