Baltimore shut your run game down and made Jimmy Grapes try to win, which was a disaster. It was never even as close as 3 points. Baltimore is a joke of a team with a one-dimensional running QB. We've beaten them twice over the past 2 seasons.


We almost beat GB and DID beat MIN with a QB that was teaching math and coaching high school ball at the beginning of the season behind a backup Oline. Texans and Titans were good enough to spot 24 and 10 point leads to and still kick their asses.

Hey, we were decimated by injuries, but yeah...Titans didn't play any regular season games after week 10. They got in when they beat us in the regular season and didn't have to play again until the playoffs.

Dumbass.

Calm down man. I said best case scenario for the Niners, meaning the damn thing just goes absolutely perfect for them. Turnovers (maybe even fumbled kickoffs/punts by the Chiefs) and so forth. Maybe the Niners offense hogs the ball to keep the Chiefs offense from touching it. If the Chiefs completely crap their pants, the Niners can hold them to 10 points.

Thanks bud. Good luck to you too.

No, they really fucking can’t.

Stop sucking their dick for 5 seconds. Breathe.

Mahomes_Is_God has some issues. We have to let him out of his cage to eat and poop at least twice a day, or DFS gets all bent.

49ers fans really thinking they’re just gonna blow our d line off the LOS

Chiefs D line is beefy, beefier and nastier than Green Bay. I’ve said it a bunch but Green Bay didn’t show up. Tons of soft, low effort, business decision type plays all over the field on defense.

And Spags is going to have his guys coached up to be ready for all the shifts and motions. 9ers motion on basically every play, often multiple times. It’s a big part of how they create leverage in the blocking game, and another aspect of it is that they can make similar pass concepts look entirely different pre snap. I’m 110% sure Spags is going to have a strategy to counteract this. The Packers didn’t look remotely ready for it. Obviously they can’t be prepared for every motion on every play, but on key downs I know that Spags and co will be able to glean tendencies, especially as the game goes on.

The Niners will get their wins on offense, but I think they’re going to have to abandon the running game at some point. And that’s when the defense can really eat.

We'll see how it goes. The OL got their butts kicked pretty hard in the AFC title game a year ago for the 1st half. It was ugly. They got their act together big time in the 2nd half of that game. They'll need to bring their A game from the first snap this time around.

I was specifically addressing the Niners guy who is extremely confident they will get to Mahomes. So if you indulge his idea and assume that the pass rush is ferocious, then I addressed the rest of it...which is that even if they get to Mahomes, he is fully capable of pulling off some batshit crazy stuff to make their pass rushers look like idiots.

This is accurate.

The Rams game last year, their Dline gave us FITS. Its was horrible.

We scored 50 points anyway.
[Reply]

Exactly which is why saying their pass rush alone can possibly hold us to 10 pts is absurd.

The Jaguars were constantly getting pressure week 1 with a much better matchup in the secondary and couldn’t stop us either.
[Reply]

Offense got 36 I think. Defense made some huge plays to get 14 on Goff. Mahomes made big mistakes that delivered 21 to the Rams. That was the difference in the game. One QB gave 21 and the other gave 14. I hope Pat learned a lot from that experience.

I WILL DEFEND US FOREVER! I LOVE ALL OF YOU AHHHHHHHHHHHH
[Reply]

But the point is that when teams get pressure we can still score a lot of points.

Pressure alone isn’t going to stop this offense and that’s literally all the 49ers have going for them defensively in this matchup. Their LB’s are pretty much irrelevant.

You're one of the most reasonable posters here so I'll ask you...

Why do the Chargers give y'all such a hard time? There talk on the 49ers forums about Gus Bradley defenses giving Mahomes fits and Saleh is from that coaching tree.
[Reply]

Don't they have Fred Warner and Kwon Alexander at LB?

Those guys are good
[Reply]

Those are fair points. :-)
