The game’s lone first-half touchdown came courtesy of the NFL’s 2023 touchdown leader, Christian McCaffrey, on a long-developing trick play with 4:32 remaining in the second quarter.

Something that may have gone unnoticed on the live broadcast, though, was a game-changing block by 49ers OL Spencer Burford that prevented a potential interception by Chiefs LB Nick Bolton.

This “incredible” drone camera angle from the CBS broadcast shows the play developing:

According to Next Gen Stats, “McCaffrey had a 58.4% chance of scoring when he caught the ball according to the NGS expected YAC model, the 2nd-most probable TD reception caught behind the LOS outside the 25-yard line this season.”
