Just saying Purdy is a better QB than Jimmy
The 49ers offense as a whole is better. CMC wasn't there last time. Deebo was a rookie. Aiyuk was in college. This is a MUCH better offense than they had last time.

But our defense is much better than last time. This matchup of our defense vs. their offense doesn't worry me more than the last matchup of our defense vs. their offense did.

And while our offense isn't as good now as it was then, I believe their defense has stepped back even more than our offense has.

If this were Madden Off/Def/STs ranking, I'd say:

2019: Chiefs - 95/80/90 for a 88 overall vs. 49ers -- 85/94/90 for an 89 overall

2024: Chiefs -- 88/95/91; 90 overall vs 49ers -- 90/85/90 for an 88 overall

The parts/pieces have moved around a lot but when evaluating the Chiefs I would say our offense is better than the 2019 defense was and this defense is as good as the 2019 offense was. On balance, we've improved. The 49ers offense, because I don't think Purdy is truly excellent, has not improved as much as the 49ers defense has regressed.

I think the 49ers had a better team in '19 than we did but they got outcoached. This team has a better team than the 49ers, IMO - and won't get outcoached.
