9ers got speed too
cool but literally none of them are defending hill watkins and hardman
Ward, Tartt, Moseley are all 4.4 guys. Yes, KC is fast. But if you don't give Mahomes 5+ seconds to throw the ball, that speed is somewhat negated. The key will be whether we get pressure with 4 and can bring him down.
Also, Kwon - Warner - Greenlaw are one of the fastest LB crew in the league (if not the fastest).
This notion that 49ers don't have the speed to match KC is just not true. Can KC beat our defense deep - of course but some of these "so-called experts" are acting like we don't stand a chance against their speedy offense - when in fact we are the best in stopping explosive plays because of our speed at all 3 levels of the defense. The only one who is probably slow for their position is Sherman - and for 9 years he has often negated that because he plays with high IQ and great anticipation.
