KC definitely isn't as good this year, but its still Mahomes. He always pulls something out of his butt. Almost like Russell Wilson with Seattle. Wilks cant afford another bad start. GB and DET were young and inexperienced. KC knows how to close.

Couldn't pull anything out of his butt vs TB in the SB. SF is the opposite of inexperienced.

they've put up 30+ pts 3 times this yr. Mahomes is Mahomes BUT they're here because of that defense imo.

I think SF matches up well vs KC. I wanted them over the Ravens

I definitely wanted them over the Ravens, just so Brock didn't have that PTSD potential.

TB had an elite pass rush. They were blowing up the KC OL all game in that SB. We can hope the pass rush shows up like that, but we haven't seen that in weeks.

I also prefer to play KC in the SB. I think our offense matches up well against their D and should be able to control the TOP.

Not very confident, just based on the way we looked for 5 of the 8 quarters we played in our 2 playoff games. KC isn't going to let us come back if we start crappy.

My biggest concern is Wilks. I have no confidence in his game plan. I feel like he constantly comes up with crap strategies that Warner basically has to adjust from to right the ship.

I'm going to spam this gif to combat any doubt. 49ers are a good team, don't underestimate them.

He's not that much of a genius. He abandons the run way too soon lately and let's not forget the last SB against KC where he blew a huge lead by abandoning the run and trying to win with the worst QB to ever play in a SB.

KC plays a lot of man coverage and I think that benefits our offense - their corners are good but I think we have too many weapons to cover them all every time.
