"The Chiefs defense looked good against some crap teams late in the season and were able to stop a one-dimensional Titans run game that began and ended with Henry so as a result, the 49ers can't score."

Thank you!!! I have been saying this to anyone who will listen.

The Titans weren't doing that bad running the ball either. They seemed to get away from running the ball way to early in the game. When Lewis was in more than Henry your coaching staff f**ked up.

Yeah, that's all over the the KC planet fan website. I dont get how they came to that conclusion when even Baltimore, in the rain, couldn't stop our run game. Baltimore is just the number 1 defense against the run this year. We put up 174 yards on the ground against them in the rain.

Warren sharp is an analytical guru...he's been on point with SF during the playoffs and he's giving SF the slight edge in the SB

Of 77 experts who weighed in, the Chiefs were favored by 48 of them (62.3%), while the 49ers claimed 29 votes (37.7%).

Excellent...

Yeah honestly I don't think either team is gonna have issues scoring. SF matches up very well offensively vs KC's defense. It's gonna come down to our defense hopefully limiting explosive plays, making some stops, and if we win the turnover battle we win IMHO.

This is gonna be a crazy game!

Henry is a truck but stopping a guy that size is much easier especially when he's been running 30+ carries in each of his prior 3 games.

Our running game is much more versatile and our backs don't standout that much for the defense to key off of.

Chief fans are super confident thinking because they stopped Henry that our running game isn't an issue. We'll see soon how that goes for them.

I read an article where 63.12% of the experts picked the 49ers. One of us is lying.
