Again with the nitpicking. Kittle had an objectively stellar game Sunday. His blocking on the edge was a huge reason San Francisco churned out 285 yards on 42 carries. The disappearance of the 49ers’ passing game meant another slow day through the air for Kittle. He caught one ball for 15 yards, bringing his postseason total to 31 yards on four catches. The All-Pro tight end isn’t shy about his love of blocking, but the 49ers offense is at its peak when he’s making plays as a pass catcher.
