I cannot and will not tolerate low effort, being out muscled or being out hit.

It's ridiculous. No wonder they play so bad. No effort or trying at all.

Defense needs to watch film and what plays the chiefs run outta different looks and see what kinda package they should run. The should work on swarming the ball handler. And keep Mahomes moving within the pocket where he takes his eyes off the field for a few moments. Cause the niners need to mix stuff like fronts and stunts. They been playing base defense and teams are doing crack tosses and sealing the edge. Thats cause bosa and young have their hands in the dirt and cant see when the crack block is coming. Put Bosa and young in the B gap, Blitz Lenior. Wilks can do so much with this defense and he is just playing them straight up. Like mix coverages with different fronts and stunts. Look how Spagnola runs his defence. He has a completely different gameplan every week. Or MacDonald. They have amazing gameplans every week.

They really need to own the edges. Last 2 games they game planned the wrs to seal our d ends opening up big gains. Demeco did not allow much along the edges. Cbs need to press and be aggressive in run/screen game.

Need to empty the tank this game.

And lets hope the Refs call all the holds on Bosa this time

Yeah BILL wake the hell up this time man! #screwedthesaints #screwedthesuperbowl

The big come-from-behind win vrs Detriot Lions in the NFC game was important, but we haven't seen the Niners play a complete game of their best football in some time, especially the defense. I feel like we are due to have a big, dominant win but we haven't come up with one lately.

49ers gotta play like it's the Eagles game..just destroy their souls

Deebo is the one player that can play at a standard of full "FREAK SHOW" that no defender can go with.

Holding is in the eye of the beholder.

On any given play the Ref could call holding on the Offense.

Compared to the weapons we had the last time they met in the Super Bowl, I think Purdy's a better QB and he has better weapons than Garoppolo had.

Can Deebo play at the level where he makes everyone shriek with excitement?

Bosa is just as scary as he was in SB LIV. It took Mahomes an entire half to adjust to how quick Bosa was turning the corner off the edge. First he over-corrected and started rushing. Then he dialed it in, where he just got off the throws before being clobbered!

I'm going to have to duck from the Screenshot Squad for replying here but the reason it wasn't a holding is because Fish ran his feet. So that yes his arm was over Bosa's chest but that alone isn't a holding. His path wasn't impeded from that because Fish finished with his feet. https://t.co/FGutVNzarx

Whoa crazy, lol. Mitchell Schwartz was so good too and I'm in no position to question him, but I saw an obvious hold. All D lineman think they're getting held, and all O lineman think they do not hold.

We just gotta get to Mahomes early, cannot wait till the second half to fire the jets.
