How should the niners have played OT differently?

Should they have kicked?

Should they have gone for it on 4th?

Or did they make the right decisions?

Taking the ball first is slightly better (50.2%) even when the second team goes for 2 after TD-TD. Everyone seems to think KC was guaranteed to score, even though only a third of drives end in points. SF's decisions were fine — they were just out-executed
