🏆 SUPER BOWL LVIII PREGAME THREAD - SF 49ERS vs KC CHIEFS 🏆

Steve Young was the Larry Krueger show saying that you don't win the SB, you have to snatch the game from the other team with Bloody hands. You just take it, it's a mentality that nothing and no one can keep you from attaining your goal and it started after winning the NFC championship. Chiefs are showing up to play a game, Niners showing up for a HOMICIDE, GO NINERS!!!!

No. The Chiefs aren't the prolific offense of 2019, and their defense hasn't yielded 30 points to anyone this season. Niners will probably be able to put up 24-28 points. There is always the possibility given the breaks of a game and the number of dynamic playmakers we have that they could blow it wide open, but unlikely given the Chiefs have the top rated defense. We didn't light up the scoreboard against either the Browns or the Ravens.

Ya I bet ravens fans were thinking they'd need to score in the high 20s even with their great D, when in fact all they needed was more than 17

For Vegas to have a record profit, they need a niners spread cover. Chiefs M/L is heavy.

To me, the magic number is 24. If we can score more than that, we have a good chance to win.

I feel good about the 49ers going into this game. They're fired up, voraciously hungry, very together as a team, I think healthier and more rested than the Chiefs and better on the positional matching overall. In fact, I think if they can't beat the Chiefs this year, in this good of shape as a team and with Mahomes having the least number of weapons he's ever had in a SB, then it's unlikely we ever will. This is OUR YEAR. I think the Chiefs are coming in more bruised, they haven't had a bye week (besides this past week) since early November and their flight was longer. Cumulatively they're a bit more exhausted in addition to a bit more bruised. Their run game is shallow after Pacheco. Ours is a lot stronger and deeper. I hope Kyle uses Mitchell and Mason in addition to CMC. We can dominate this game by relentlessly pounding the run game against their relatively poor run defense. We also have Deebo and Brock's legs. And when they pull in and load the box and bring in a safety then the BRockStar and our flood of receiving targets can light it up. Our defense needs to limit Pacheco and Kelce primarily, and contain Mahomes and cover Rashee Rice. We have a shorter "containment list" than they have. I'm not saying it's going to be an easy game, but I think we're in a better position of winning this year than they are, frankly. Chris Jones and Isiah Pacheco are coming off injuries. I don't think they can play at a top level for 4 quarters, maybe not even for 3. Their RB2 Clyde Edwards-Helaire is a big drop from Pacheco. The game will be won in the trenches, and I think we can do that. We don't have to stop them completely, just limit them, and the game flow will favor us. Like I said, I'm feeling pretty good about this game. LET'S GO!!!

There is more 49ers fans at the pre game week events. So are there more 49ers fans going? Are we taking over the stadium. The Chiefs go every year. So I would imagine they have seen some Super Bowl victories in person now. That may slow down their fan base. Because you can't spend this much money every single year. It's just so expensive. Anybody have any idea who will have the most fans in there? Are we getting home field advantage?

Hopefully the officiating will not come into play! But I'm very suspicious about this judging not what has happened the past few years, sense the intervention of the replay and then the introduction of ear piece and microphone on each official, hope I'm wrong but the past speaks for itself.

He would if he got to coach Mahomes. Instead of an "AVERAGE" QB.

Bro, you're really on that pipe.

You CLEARLY have never walked the streets in the CA from the Bay Area to San Diego, compared to walking the streets of Kansas City MO 🤣🤣

Idgaf if there's 80% tax and mountains of feces on every street corner, no one is picking KC over SF/SC.

Absolutely people pick other places because of taxes. You shouldn't be proud of 80% taxes BTW. S*** on the streets and drug needles and druggies everywhere isn't ideal either. The situation could be improved. CA has natural beauty and a catastrophe of management.

I live in Seattle now and I can tell you I absolutely miss the culture in California compared to these dumbass, unsocialized crybabies. people don't even know how to have a conversation out here, they're rude as f**k and its like speaking to children. there is no place like California. I would take stockton over most of this country.

I wouldn't take Stockton over most of the country. LOL. It's a horrible pit. You don't want to be that guy. A lot of people act like the "ugly Californian." It's like the Ugly American that travels to Europe. It's a bad, ugly and offensive look. Not saying you personally are trying to be that are that is what you are doing here. Just the we are better at everything and nobody compares is just a terrible look. Highly offensive too.

Certainly not at taxes, outrageous cost of living, homeless, drug addicts, gangs, crime, riots. CA has all kinds of problems. It has good weather and beauty. Those are mostly natural things. Not how it's run.

Never been to California, but I have been just about everywhere east of the Rockies, and all those issues you mentioned about California are issues all across the country, especially the piss poor management. It's what we get for putting up with what we put up with coming from DC. This country needs to give it's capitol an enema.

I'm just saying that Brock said it perfectly. You prey for the strength god gives you. The chiefs have god with them as well. He's not choosing sides. The lord only giving the will and strength to those who lean to him for guidance and have trust in his will.

Trying to wrestle with the fact that this year the Chiefs rarely give up 21+ points this season.

Our wins usually start with "Brock 30".

This means our D needs to be solid from the get go and an ugly win is the solution, or we need to expose something with the Chiefs and find a way to score that other teams haven't.

Ball control and being patient with the run may be the best path.

The Raiders could have scored 27 but kneeled at the 10 yard line.

Just rewatched the AFC Championship highlights, and man… credit to the Chiefs but it really feels like the Ravens choked big time. Flowers fumbling a 1st and goal at the 1-yard line and Lamar throwing an end zone interception from the Chiefs' 25… Ravens left 10+ points off the board before we even consider the fact that their game plan was objectively awful. Chiefs really only left 3 points off the board (the 4th down attempt that should've just been a field goal).

For the love of everything Kyle, please don't pull a Harbaugh or Mike Martz. Don't fall for the media's BS. You have your QB and we know it, you don't need to prove a bunch of morons on ESPN wrong. Just give the ball to CMC and win the game. Please. It's not rocket science. The moment you let those media voices get in your head and insist Purdy needs to throw for 300+ yards and 3 TD's just to stick it to the talking heads, that's how you could lose!

most people who s**t on stockton have never spent more than a few hours there. I grew up there for most of my life and I fully believe in what I said. Seattle is a s**thole, iv traveled cross country and I personally love stockton and can't wait to go back

Home is home, there's no ignoring that. I live in a city that catches a lot of flak, but I wouldn't live anywhere but here, and I've just about been everywhere but New England and the West Coast.
