Don't turn the ball over.
Stop the run and run the ball.
Get good field position.
Be hungrier than KC.
Play with fire.
Inch by inch.

Our offense is our best defense. Keep mahomes off the field. Put together a few replicas of that 10 plus minute drive in Baltimore. With the overall team blocking, yac, 3rd down percentage from jimmy, and of course our running backs, i dont see kc d stopping us from grinding and chewing up the clock.
This is not the one man king Henry they put the brakes on. The niners success is a full team effort. They won't stop it.

Play real physical off the line. All these quick fast wr weakness is not as physical as the big one

Definitely, but given that they rarely score under 23 (or whatever the number is), I think holding them to 17 or less should give us that distinction.

Here's how I see it, Mahomes is not as good a scrambler or runner as Wilson or Jackson. He is not as good a thrower as Rodgers or Brees. He is a complete package but he is not the best at each individual ability.

He clocked in a 4.80 forty time. Jimmy G was 4.9.

I have a feeling our defense gonna eat.

We just need to make sure the fast and talented players around him don't get loose.

Shanny is probably like his old man, putting together a gameplan to score 50+ and 7 TD's. I think he wants to prove that his offense is greater than Reid's and the ATL SB wasn't on him. He's gonna come with some serious juice in this game. If our D can hold KC's offense to 24 points, we win.

Reid, with the speed he has at skill positions, is the only thing that scares me because he is so good at designing crafty plays for individual talent.

Try not to let Mahomes get outside and throw. My reason is that if he rolls out, that gives his receivers more time to get open and with his rocket arm he will find them. Keep him inside and make him throw quicker or better yet, sack him.
