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

I'd guess most people would want their team to have the ball just because that feels like you're more in control.

But the reality? You definitely want the lead. Anyone who says otherwise doesn't understand probabilities.

Agreed. I’d rather have the lead because all it takes is one bobble, a dropped pass, an untimely penalty and the team coming from behind is screwed. Just too many ways things can go wrong.

Really enjoyed the offensive approach in the Bears game. They have a pretty good defense and it was cool to see the Chiefs grinding a lot of clock with good scoring drives. They scored 26, but it felt like they could have scored 40 if they wanted.

Part of the reason the listeners didn't want the lead and their defense on the field was Mahomes, particularly if you changed the hypothetical to KC only down 2 -- they figured there was no way for SF's defense to prevent Mahomes from driving 50 yards.

Fat fingered the thumbs down. Should've been thumbs up. My bad, dawg.

And you are right All22 you had one of the hardest stretches in NFL history, except what pawnmower is explaining to you, is you can’t just walk in a room and say “this is true, prove me wrong” and walk out and say how right you are if no one proves you wrong. The burden of proof is set on you, providing a link, showing statistical data etc.

Your way of conversation and proving a point is actually the exact opposite of how they teach people to approach a discussion.

No, he claimed I used an argument that was impossible to disprove. I did not.

As far as burden of proof, well, I'm new here so I can't use links in posts. I provided headlines and the information is otherwise widely reported and available.

His claim was that the widely reported information is wrong. Therefore the burden of proof is with him.

Perhaps they don't know your defense that well? They discussed Clark at length in the same show and noted that statistically KC is better than SF's defense in some ways. Still, it was the concern of Mahomes with the ball and a tired SF defense that were the prime factors.

Man, this is awesome stuff. I will say, the Chargers seemed to have some moderate success against us on defense this year. They forced us to dink and dunk down the field, and that's really not when our offense is at its best. The Chiefs can certainly do it though - we dominated the Bears with methodical drives like that when they basically sold out to prevent the deep ball.

Mahomes has seen this defensive scheme 4 times just with the Chargers in the past two years. I think he and Reid are going to shred it with 2 weeks to prepare.

The Chargers have stymied Mahomes a bit the last three times we've played them.

Yeah, I felt like KC did a great job in that game. Might see a somewhat similar approach against the Niners.

It's probably shifted for Mahomes, but PFR's win probability calculator says that the team down by 6 is only a 17% chance to win in that situation. I'll take the lead all day long.
