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.

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

True story:

Was hooking up with a beautiful young lady from Stockton when I was 18. She had a boyfriend (in jail at the time). After an evening visit with her, on my way home back to Sac on I-80 my front tire flew off my Beretta.

Come to find out her boyfriend (from jail) had his cousin loosen all my lug nuts. He left me a message saying next time I wouldn't be so lucky 🤣🤣

Yeah, I didn't hang out with her much after that and I avoided Stockton all together, have never been back to this day😎

Weren't the Barkleys from Stockton?

Even though Andy Reid said it's a long shot for All-Pro LG Joe Thuney to play in #sblviii ... those around Thuney still believe there is a shot I'm told. Thuney himself said the picture will be a little clearer as we get closer to Sunday if he can go. So stay tuned.

I usually have a feel for games, and I don't have much feel on this one. In terms of the outcome.

I get the KC appreciation, as I usually look to QB, HC, and D and KC scores pretty much off the charts in those areas.

If I had to venture, I would say it won't be crazy high scoring. Points will be more at a premium. KC doesn't have enough out wide to score like they used to, and both teams want to pound the football.

I think KC will make Brock have to execute at a high level and play fast for SF to win. Teams are starting to sit on the intermediate in breaking routes on 3rd and distance. Gonna be a really interesting tactics battle between Kyle and Spags.

Sounds like you're leaning Chiefs. The problem here is based on the eye test. We knew that Green Bay had to play a perfect game in order to beat us. And they almost did. We knew that Detroit had to play a perfect game in order to beat us. And they almost did.

Now the roles are reversed. Kansas City doesn't have to play a perfect game to beat us. Actually most pundits and fans agree that WE have to play a perfect game to beat them. And therein lies the problem. We may be the better team of paper, but the eye test tells us that Mahomes and Reid combo puts us at a disadvantage…

The nice thing about working from home is that I can day drink to calm my nerves waiting for gameday lol

Why do people keep bringing up how the 49ers haven't played an amazing level game since Thanksgiving when the Chiefs haven't played that way for the entire Season, period? They have three games all Season and Playoffs where they scored above 30 this Year which is nearly just the 49ers ppg average.. Then they talk about how Mahomes has so much more experience and is on another entire level as a GOAT contender yet you look at his SB stats and he's currently sitting on 5td's to 4int's and hasn't even passed 300 yards in any of the 3 times he was there including well under 200 yards in the last SB which was by far his best performance overall since the running game was working well. Don't get me wrong, Mahomes is the best QB in Football and the Chiefs are still very dangerous but let's get this back to reality because Mahomes has been far from stellar in SB games. I think the more interesting debates at least for me are things like Purdy vs. Spags or just how well can Dre and Fred lock down the middle of the field and make life a nightmare for Kelce as they are clearly the best lb duo in football especially coverage wise. How well are the defensive lines going to play? Is Spags going to run much less blitzes considering Purdy is absurdly efficient against it? etc. etc.. The GB talk is absolutely ridiculous as it was in the rain and he CLEARLY outplayed Love and got the win. In the previous two games the Chiefs got EXTREMELY lucky as well with the opposing team making multiple critical mistakes but somehow it seems like only the 49ers struggled there way to the SB.. Surprise, surprise.. Even the best teams always need at least a little bit of luck here and there to make it to this game and that includes Mahomes.

He's just trying to say all the right things. Not trying to stir the pot. He'll be the first to claim "yea, we stepped on their throats, they frauds" if KC wins it.

He's trying to get signed by the Niners in March….

Here ya go! Get fired up!!!

45 of those 71 experts picked the Eagles last year. That should put things in perspective…

The media coverage is so lopsided it's sickening. I'm just experimenting throughout the day since I'm home all day and just tuning in to different stations. Everything is Chiefs this chiefs that. Everyone is picking overs for every Chiefs players and unders for ours lol. The media wants the chiefs so bad

The media have the shortest memories imaginable. All of this bias is based off of the poor showing the Niners had on Xmas, which made everyone think the Ravens were the best. They weren't and KC proved that, so now they all think the Chiefs are the best. Media is nothing more than dogs watching squirrels man. Look at how the teams have played this season. Then look at each team's health situation. After the Super Bowl, the Niners will be the best, even in their eyes, and the good news is this conception gets to last until next season at least.

How do you stay so positive and erect? In my heart I know the Niners can win and win by 10+. But all the negativity and everything else makes me feel down about them

my emotions are playing with me, some days I think niners will win, other days I think chiefs will win, yesterday i felt like niners are gonna dominate...today i feel like I just need this game to end so i can go on with the rest of my life

An interesting statistic.

Which Quarterback has the most interceptions overturned by instant review and the referees?

Its Patrick Mahomes.

And its not even close.

Pat Mahomes has 52 and the next best is Tom Brady at 23.

So that is twice the number of overturned interceptions as the GOAT.

So, while there is not a conspiracy theory, it is clear that the referees do give Pat Mahomes as many chances as possible to win a game.
