That's a pretty compelling take. It could be nullified by McCaffrey running wild (KC is down DL Omenihu), so Purdy would need to do less. I'm with you, though, experienced Chiefs win it based on a key turnover or two.Chief’s secondary has looked great. Purdy has looked mistake prone. That’s my analysis, such as it is. Chiefs by 10, +2 in turnovers.
I’d argue the better QB lost in half of the Super Bowls Brady played in: 2001, 2007, 2011, 2017, 2020Team with the better QB usually wins. Mahomes is the better QB. They are coming off impressive wins against Miami, Buffalo, and Baltimore. The 49ers defense has looked mortal in their 2 playoff games. Chiefs win and the game isn’t even close. 34-17 Chiefs.
This is my take. I think SF just has more talent, even though the Chiefs looked like the better team last week and they have the better QB.Niners. Go with the better team, not Mahomes magic voodoo bullshit.
(Yes, he is amazing. But lots of guys on a football team)
First glance this looked like a heads/tails. i.e., flip a coin game prediction. I will go with that, picking the Niners by a single point, 28-27.Heart: 49ers
Head: Chiefs. Mahomes is the difference in a fairly close game.
Has this actually happened? I hope not.What's everyone's predictions on the number of lame-ass "Purdy/pretty" puns in the game thread? E.g., "That was a Purdy throw."
Plus the Bills had no linebackers in that game. None.9ers were the better team all season. They faced adversity against good teams in the playoffs.
Chiefs got to play Miami in -1000 windchill, a Bill's team that struggled all season (whose number they've had for years), and a 2-4 Lamar Jackson.
Plus, fuck the Chiefs.
You must have been listening/reading different things than I have. All I've seen are stories about how great the Chiefs defense is and whether Spagnola is the greatest defensive coordinator of all time.The Chiefs D is gonna give the Niners more problems than many seem to anticipate.
Are you literally betting against him?All week, all I've heard is you can't bet against Mahomes. You just can't. You can't. You can't bet against Mahomes.
Ergo, I am betting against Mahomes. San Fran has an awesome team, especially on the ground, which is KC's major weakness.(Baltimore hilariously chose to ignore this fact and it was hilarious) They also have a very solid secondary. The key to this game for SF is tackling. If they are playing hard and driving at the ball, they are going to win. KC's offense isn't good, even tho they have Mahomes.
You can sometimes bet against Mahomes.
Yes, sir, literally. Just PM'ed you.Are you literally betting against him?
The 49ers would be sitting at home right now if the Wizard of Oz had given Dan Campbell a brain. If anyone is lucky to be in this game it’s SF.9ers were the better team all season. They faced adversity against good teams in the playoffs.
