ChiefsPlanet - Chiefs Let's talk about the 49ers (Super Bowl Edition)

Man, for the past few days i been watching you go all "objective" on us. **** that shit, man.

If there were ever a time to go full Homer it's now. Let the Homer shine, man. Release the beast.

It's the result of serenity. Having Mahomes has me so damn confident that we'll be here like 2/3 of the time until I'm in my 50s, that I can just kinda take these as they come right now.

So I've been able to look at a lot of this stuff almost dispassionately. It's made it even more satisfying to keep coming to the conclusion that we're gonna win this game.

Ain't gotta be a homer to think the Chiefs are a better team. Shit, I'm of the mind you can remove QBs from the equation altogether and the Chiefs are STILL arguably better.

But again - I'm just fairly chill about all of this at this point. There's some stuff the 9ers do really well. There's some stuff the Chiefs do really well. Lots of that shit's gonna cancel out and in the end execution will likely prevail.

49ers
Rodney Harrison
Chris Simms
Derrick Henry
Christian McCaffrey

Chris Simms picked the Chiefs the last time i watched him. He said Chiefs by 3-6.

Any way we can convince Florio to change his mind?

In his video with Harrison he acted like he was going Niners.

Yep, the Niners could choose to attack by throwing a lot to RBs and their FB. It's a real possibility, but it's not something they've done a TON of this year. Certainly not as much as the Chargers have done, which was the whole point of my original post.

Fair enough.

That's mostly the pattern of people picking the 49ers, they are guys with defensive/running back backgrounds who are picking with their hearts (due to their fondness for how the 49ers have won in the playoffs), rather than with their heads.

Meanwhile Chris Simms and Kyle Shanahan have tattoos of each other, so their relationship seems to be in a TMI-category.

LOL ...

Why in the name of Hank Stram's Groin Toupee would you guys give two damns about which team a bunch of idiot pundits pick to win?

If they don't produce their signed betting slips, it don't mean a thang. (Not to mention that most of these guys have been wrong about practically everything all year long.)

Stephen A Smith picked the Chiefs...not sure how I feel about that.
Kellerman picks the Chiefs also...

And Booger with some shit you'd hear from an 80 year old man.

Chiefs receivers were NOT running wide open for the most part, and they were getting some pressure on Mahomes. None of it mattered though. Mahomes simply made plays.

Although he may not make a lot of "splash" plays, people seem to forget that splash plays are often created due to an accumulation of sprinkles elsewhere on the field.

Sammy Sprinkles has value.

As for Mahomes' deal, it seems to me that Clark's comments were transparent. Veach said from day 1 that they had a long term plan to handle Mahomes' contract and it wasn't going to be a surprise. Clark's 12-15 month timeline is telling. He's on the finance committee and I believe he's forecasting that the CBA negotiations are going to have a significant effect on Mahomes' contract and related timing.

I also believe that Mahomes will not try to break the bank on the Chiefs. Based on everything he's ever said (publicly), I get the strong impression that he would rather win for 10mm less than lose for 10mm more.

Good post right on

I don't care, but it is interesting to see the trends in how the national media is picking the game.

Chiefs are destined to win this game and Mahomes is destined to be the youngest winning QB in a Superbowl. I feel it and I think the players do too.

I understand, but I don't know why they would say that, Mr. Mecca.

Although Mahomes has been getting a lot of love this week in Miami, the teevee peeps have been talking up the Niners a lot.

Yet, as we know, none of it means a damn thing in the end. Somebody is actually playing in the game ... and it isn't them.

The most interesting storyline for me has been the "Defense Wins Championships" plot. If one accepts that dogma, the Niners are in pretty good shape. (Mainly because the teevee peeps simply use season-long stat compilations that don't account for improvement during the year.)

However, I believe that "Defense Wins Championships" yarn was concocted long before the NFL made the rule changes that favored offense.

And, of course, Mahomes wasn't invented yet.

Chris Simms and Kyle Shanahan are close friends. Kyle used to babysit CMC.

Frankly I think a lot of guys (i.e. Harrison) want Lynch to win to validate the movement from the broadcast booth to the front office.
