Las Vegas: NFL security arrived in search of John Lynch. Four years ago, as the Super Bowl was coming to an end, it was time to transport the general manager of the 49ers from a sterile suite to the hot, nervous sideline.
In the last six and a half minutes of Super Bowl LIV in Miami, Lynch witnessed the 49ers’ 20-10 advantage turn into a devastating 31-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Not a strong recall. This week, Lynch reminisced about the one that escaped.
There’s one amazing opportunity to make amends on Sunday. With thoughts of becoming this decade’s NFL dynasty, the 49ers go into Super Bowl LVIII hoping to unseat the Chiefs, who are vying for their third Lombardi Trophy in four years.

Lynch saw the 49ers, up 20-10, lose 31-20 to the Kansas City Chiefs in the final six and a half minutes of Super Bowl LIV in Miami.
Not very vividly remembered. Lynch talked back this week about the one that got away.
On Sunday, there’s one incredible chance to make apologies. The 49ers enter Super Bowl LVIII looking to upset the Chiefs, who are competing for their third Lombardi Trophy in four years, with aspirations of becoming this decade’s NFL dynasty.
