Niners are favored for a reason.

Vegas wants you to put money on the Chiefs. They're incentivizing you to do it. There's a reason for that.

Good or bad for us?

It's good for us. Vegas has been riding the 49ers all season but we have not covered a single spread in the playoffs. So people betting on the Lions and Packers have won the bet if they took the points.

How is that good for us then if we're currently favored? We were by favored by 10.5 and 7.5 against the Packers and Lions respectively and now we're favored by 1.5.

White.

KC is the home team so they choose colors. They will likely go with their red jerseys…

Screw that, we should just wear our red jerseys anyways. What's the NFL going to do about it? Cancel the Super Bowl?

Just watched the AFC game, not impressed by the Chiefs at all. I think it was more the Ravens choking than Chiefs being better.

Ravens D is the best in the league. Better than ours. I don't think KC not putting up more than 17 means much headed into this game.

They're also down their all-pro LG with might be a torn pec. He missed that game. They were getting pressure up the middle.

After the way the first half went, this is anyone game
not gonna sit here and pretend this niners team can walk past anyone

I don't think anyone is saying the Chiefs are going to be a cakewalk. When we say we didn't come away particularly impressed with them yesterday, it's more of a statement against the chicken littles that are already saying we have no chance. We may lose, but we also have a very real shot at #6.

The difference is they played against the best D in the league not this terrible 49ers D.

And we moved the ball at will against that same defense but they made a couple nice plays with fortunate bounces. So? Using how a team performs against another opponent as a barometer for future failure/success has proven to be irrelevant time and again. It's a game of matchups. Any given Sunday.

There you go. And this is the only hope we have. Any given Sunday. Besides that, we're getting blasted by the swifties in 2 weeks

Well a 1.5 spread is more of a pick 'em game which means the wise guys are gonna favor the team they think will win. They having massive casinos for a reason they know who's playing. They know how the 49ers have been playing. They still are picking them to win and generating plenty of bets that will make them lots and lots of money.

And that's why it doesn't favor us. If more ppl pick the Niners to win straight up, the house wins if KC takes the SB. They want ppl to pick the Niners…

no. while you can choose to wear your alt uni once in the playoffs, this rule does not extend to the Super Bowl.

Well in 1994 the Niners payed a weekly fine for continuing to wear those 1955 replicas. George Seifert was a superstitious dude. In today's NFL, not gonna happen…

It's not good or bad for us lol. The 49ers are one of the most heavily bet teams in the NFL. There's rarely great value in betting them outside of certain spots with good timing.
