Position-by-position grades from the 49ers crushing Super Bowl LVIII loss

The San Francisco 49ers fell short in Super Bowl LVIII, losing 25-22 in overtime to Patrick Mahomes and Kansas City. The 49ers led 16-13 with less than two minutes left in regulation. Then led 22-19 in overtime. The Niners defense was just one stop away from the title. Instead, Mahomes further fueled GOAT conversations as he raised the Lombardi Trophy once again.

Here are position-by-position grades for the game:

Quarterbacks: C+

Brock Purdy had a couple of throws that could have been picked off, but one was because of a drop by Deebo Samuel and the other would have been a fantastic play by Trent McDuffie.
