As crazy as it sounds they have never won a game when trailing by more than 3 in the 4th Q under Shanahan. Fortunately, they aren't behind in the 4th very often. Shanahan is a great coach but this has been an issue. To be fair, not having a clutch QB during that time probably hasn't helped. Sorry Jimmy but I never trusted you with a 7 point lead in the 4th let alone a deficit.
That is a crazy stat. I like that the way they've decided to address it is to just keep reducing the odds of ever being behind. It's easy to forget how young Purdy still is, because of how successful he's been. It wouldn't be surprising at all if he kept getting better.

He will learn from this. He said in the press conference that 2 of the INTs were definitely due to poor decisions by him and he should have checked down to CMC on the first one rather than forcing it in the end zone to Deebo and he should have just thrown it away on the one to Kittle where under pressure he tried to force it and it got batted in the air.
He will get better.
