A+ Game Plan: Kyle Shanahan Showed The 49ers The Clips Of Every DK Metcalf Meltdown, Promised A Christmas Gift To Whoever Got Under His Skin

Say what you want, but if you promise someone a free gift of some sort it works. Don't believe me? Watch grown ass adults lose their mind for an XXL t-shirt at a sporting event that you can get for like $8 somewhere. Still don't believe me? How do you feel when someone tells you drinks on them? They taste a little bit better despite saving, again, like $7. A free meal? Forget about it. Day made. 

We're talking about multi-millionaires here and Shanahan offering them a Christmas gift if they got under DK Metcalf's skin. Let's check the tape. 

Congrats to Fred Warner on the gift card! Actually, that might be a bounty and we know how the NFL handles that. Maybe congrats on the sweatshirt or something and then it's all good. Now, to be fair to DK, this is out there too

I don't have anything against DK Metcalf, but he is known for losing his mind. This is just a good game plan by Shanahan. If you can get DK out of the game, you're winning. That's just a no-brainer, especially with Drew Lock back there. Hell we also know that the Seahawks/49ers is a rivalry. There's gonna be scuffles no matter what and now you're adding a Christmas gift in there? It was bound to happen. 

Honestly if the Seahawks just wear the old school jerseys, it'd solve half their issues. Refuse to believe they can win wearing whatever they have on now. Bring them back.
