Pisses me off that these morons in the media think that the 49ers will run all over us and a big part is their OL.

Lewan, Conklin, Saffold and Jones are as good of a run blocking OL as there is and our DL destroyed them.

They are going to play pissed on Sunday.

Having lived in both KC and SF I have to laugh at the insults from both sides that are clearly from people that have never been there.

Where do they get this idea that the 49ers are just so much better than the Titans on offense?

DVOA says otherwise.

How many passes did he throw last game? 8...or was that completions?

If Alexander is healthy, I think he goes. But, I'm not convinced they're playing 2 LBS

The bigger statistic is how many hes thrown over 2 games...and what percentage of those were intercepted, and the sack he took, as well.

Pretty sure that was attempts.

I haven't brought up the Colts loss except to understand why. You can do with the injury report what you want to. Injuries to impact teams, don't they?

Not only was the field in Mexico a joke but they were playing a mile and a half in the air. Oxygen was at a premium and I remember both teams having issues breathing.

Nice image from the preseason game in August of Frank Clark taking it to Jimmy Crappolo...

More of this on Sunday...

Our O Line is #2 in the league!! What’s astonishing is that t he Ravens ran the ball most the time which is why they are first at 77. You would think a running team would be second but nope!! We were and another astonishing thing is that Fisher was out half the year

We should smash them.

It’s going to be glorious when we kill them.

All-Pro RT and if you watch the National Media or listen to 9er fans it's like the man doesn't even exist. "Ermagerd how will they block the 9ers pass rush herp derp"

Remember in 2016 when we signed Mitchell Schwartz for $6 million/season and then the Broncos signed Donald Stephenson for $5 million/season?

That was fun.

I live in SF. The shit on the streets and drug stuff is real. Bandwagoning is practically a way of life. The homo stuff is whatever. Actually pays to be straight and single here. Way less competition than any other metro area :)

The 9ers are going to dismantle this offense. /Lavar Arrington

A blowout is the only way to shut up the doubters and that's what we're going to get...54 pts...

Before halftime

My prediction:

42-17 Chiefs

this.



Ive lived in both places. Theyre both great , and have different pro's and con's....


Its hillarious to see people talk about stuff they don't know about -- on BOTH sides. I love the KC area (my family actually is from a ways west of KC in the sticks , I don;t know to much about the actual city -- mostly the country)...and I currently live near SF. Theres a few of us on this board that have experienced both worlds but not that many.



Even the ones who have experienced SD or LA, thats not what northern Cali is like at all....I would say parts of northern cali are more like KC than it is like LA in some ways.

You think they're going to try to cover Chiefs 11 personnel with their base set and 3 LBs?

Ummm.... Good luck with that.

Honestly I can’t remember the last time Mahomes was sacked

Yeah that’s just like.... not possible.

They’d have to cover Kelce with a LBer every play and likely use single high safeties exclusively. Coordinators just don’t work that way. They match offensive personnel and they damn sure aren’t going to shift from that against the Chiefs speed.

I have to say CP is rarely collectively caught off guard how the Chiefs perform in a game.

Yes, there are plenty of stupid takes, but the majority seem to get it right because they really understand the team.

Before Mahomes, these threads were VERY different. We knew when we were about to get our asses beat. I don’t think the board as a whole sees us losing this week.

Jimmy Grapes will be meat on a stick.

Lots of Niners fans trying hard to win the worst take thread.

Yep - bring on those 3 LB sets....

https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-ap...CBI.jpg&w=1440

I think Chiefs are #2 in the league in 12 personnel.

On Sunday they should scrap it.

Spread the !@#$ers out and make them work in space. Get one of their LBers off the field and force their safeties into harder decisions.

I think 12 has a time and place. Could maybe use it on a 3rd & long to get a chip somewhere on Bosa or Ford.

But other than that I’m with you. If we’ve been 11 personnel 60% of the time entering this game, I expect 70-75% Sunday.

1 LB

Y'all feel like riding that Ahkello Witherspoon train again, do ya?

That seems...unwise.

He cleaned that up...mostly from the early part of the season.

Yeah, this argument seems lost on you when we use it w/r/t our rush defense...

Most bay area fans know Schwartz; he went to Cal! He's very good. You guys are making up straw man arguments.

9er pass rush impossible to stop.

For goodness sake Goff put up 30+ on these fools in SF.

Not following you...JG had five games under his belt going into this season. He had fumbling problems in the first nine games this season, with 7 fumbles and 4 lost. Over last 9 he has 3 fumbles and 1 lost. I don't doubt that KC's defense has gotten much better as the season has gone on. I haven't rejected that assertion.

They're better than SF's D in PPG LMAO

Offensively, the only major injury -- and it was major -- was journeyman Ben Garland subbed for Richburg for the first full game. Richburg led the OL and called assignments. Garland has been doing decently, but he's no Richburg. That said, it's not an excuse. Atlanta got healthy in the second half of the season, went 6-2, and were a tough opponent. They held Brees to 184 yards and 18-30 just 2 weeks earlier.

Oh no...SF has a 4% higher rate than KC. Chiefs are ****ed..

Team Pass Rush Win Rate

1. Dallas Cowboys, 53%
2. Atlanta Falcons, 53%
3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 51%
4. Philadelphia Eagles, 50%
5. Los Angeles Rams, 50%
6. Pittsburgh Steelers, 50%
7. Jacksonville Jaguars, 48%
8. Buffalo Bills, 47%
9. Green Bay Packers, 47%
10. Arizona Cardinals, 46%
11. Los Angeles Chargers, 45%
12. New York Jets, 45%
13. San Francisco 49ers, 45%
14. Baltimore Ravens, 45%
15. Indianapolis Colts, 43%
16. Seattle Seahawks, 43%
17. New York Giants, 41%
18. Cleveland Browns, 41%
19. Kansas City Chiefs, 41%
20. Tennessee Titans, 41%

Chris Jones is #3 in the NFL with a 19% pass rush win rate...SF has no one in the top 10.

Yeah, I just don't see how the 49ers can try to do that when the Chiefs are in 11 personnel, which they'll be in at least 1/2 the time in the Super Bowl and possibly more, depending on how much they like the 12 personnel package against San Francisco.

I mean, I HOPE that's what Saleh comes up with. But I can't see it.

I wont dig into that statement with an analysis of the games.

I will say, as I have said at multiple points -- SF's D is vulnerable to scrambling QBs who can extend plays. Their DL is quick, not fast (outside of Ford), so guys like Wilson, Murray and Jackson were able to extend plays once they got out of the pocket and create havoc against the 49ers secondary, which is very solid, but not that fast themselves.

I think KC's D is going to create problems for SF's offense, but I'm hoping Shanahan can game plan around it. He's shown himself more recently to be able to recognize what is being thrown at him defensively in the game, and play call to the defense's weaknesses.

It really doesn’t matter, like trying to plug the hole in the titanic with your finger.

Dime with 4 corners or 3 safeties?

Either way, an interesting approach.

How in the hell did we get away with having 21 defenders on the field?

The refs really are on our side!

This stat can be hard to find but I LOVE it.

Because it isn't a measure of how well the opposing QB breaks the pocket or how fast the opposing OC gets the ball out.

It's a simple distillation of how often your DL beats their OL. It gets rid of a LOT of noise.

Now 4% isn't nothing because it's an accumulation of every pass-rush snap your DL gets. So if you figure 4 DL and 40 drop-backs, that's 160 aggregate pass rush snaps.

That's 6-7 more pass rush 'wins' over the course of the game. But ultimately it's just 6-7. If you figure a really good pass rush gets a sack, what, 9% of the time? You can figure that maybe 20% of your pass rush wins equate to a sack.

So the difference between the vaunted, world-eating SF pass-rush and the evidently hapless Chiefs pass rush is...one sack? And that's presuming that each team plays against a QB that is similarly effective at escaping pressure. Well Mahomes is substantially better at it than Garappolo is.

I mean this idea that the pass rush is going to be night and day in this matchup is ludicrous. KC's pass rush could very easily be just as impactful on Sunday as SFs and virtually any meaningful review of the numbers or personnel will support that.

So ESPN picked the top 53 players in the super bowl and the 49'ers have 17 of the top 25?

I think it's here but I can't access beyond #2, not that it matters I just find it funny.

https://www.espn.com/nfl/insider/sto...omes-tops-list

It’s all based on those stupid ass PFF grades — the metric that suggests Tyrann Mathieu is barely the 2nd best safety in this game and that Chris Jones is worse than Arik Armstead.

Jimmy G is 17 and I don’t think Frank Clark made the top 25

ESPN are SJW's now, so of course they go with the 49ers.

My guess is that they go with K'waun and either Harris (SS) or DJ Reed. I think they like Harris' ability to provide strong run support and he has shown decent ball hawking skills with the ball in front of him.

That's true of any city with a lot of homeless.

You guys make it seem like every corner in SF has gay guys ****ing next to a 10 foot tall steaming pile pf poo.

Pat Mahomes is being interviewed right now on Sirius radio’s NFL radio channel 88

On the same page. I want those ****ing corners exposed. It’s a huge mismatch.

You also said McGrinchy ran over Frank Clark in the run game.

Your opinion is worth two piles of shit on a San Fran sidewalk.

True, I lived in Northern California for 6 years and 22 in KC I agree.

I think you'd fit in great over at CPDC.

Today’s Wall Street Journal article on the 49es’s offense is the scariest thing that I have read all week.

Interesting...please find that post where I used the past tense "ran over Frank Clark." Is english your second language, or did you just drop out of high school?

That’s interesting.

Harris is who filled in for Tartt when he was out, correct? Didn’t sound like he was very good in pass coverage, at least in deep coverage.

It’s similar to what the Chargers do, but with a reserve SS instead of Derwin James.

It’s gonna be tough to slow them down. I think KC needs 35+ to win.

That's fine, considering they're gonna hang 50+ on the 49ers.

I've got my score at 38-27 Chiefs. we got this!

He couldn't hear what you said through the door because your mom moans so ****ing loud.

If Niners have any success whatsoever running the ball, I predict Aikman will reveal his hard-on for the Niners during our game. He's old school, always talks about "complimentary football" and hates QBs that are clearly already better than he ever was. I really wish it was CBS broadcasting this game and not Fox.

no ****in' way they score 27.

Hungry Pigs gonna eat!

So is the 49ers secondary overrated? Or is PFF just full of shit?

They came out with the top 53 players between the two teams based on overall PFF score throughout the season: https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-ranking...-tops-the-list

In the top 25, they have 18 49ers and 7 Chiefs (Mahomes is #1). But here's what is bullshitty to me. Richard Sherman is #3. Uhh... what? No he's ****ing not. He's not the 3rd best ****ing player between these two teams.

And after Sherman, the 49ers have two of their other CBs in the top 25 (Williams and Moseley).

So of the 25 best players who will be suiting up on Sunday, 3 of them are 49er CBs? Their weakest ****ing position on the team outside of WR?

Horse. Shit.

Hell if you asked me to name the top 5 defensive players on just the 49ers defense, I wouldn't pick a single one of their goddamn CBs. That's how ****ed up this shit is.

I’ve been watching a shit ton of 9ers film leading up to the game and all I’ll say is I can’t wait to see how Reid attacks Sherman.

He’s going to get burned all day.

Reid and Mahomes are going to attack Moseley. Sherman ain’t safe either.

Sherman’s dedication to bail technique is going to get him roasted against this offense. He may not give up the post or corner, but quick outs are going to be there all day, and with our QB and receivers it’s easy money. Go back to the preseason game from this year and you’ll see them take the out over and over.

Hill is an awful matchup for Sherman. He's either getting roasted or committing multiple PIs/holds.

Rapoport just said Chiefs will re sign Mahomes this off season after the new CBA is reached. Will be the richest player in NFL history

Sherman at an advanced age does not fit into the “are you scared of this guy” category. The Niners front 4 fit that description much better. Flip side is I would guess Niner coaches are a lot more afraid of Tyreek and Kelce compared to how Andy & Mahomes might feel about Sherman.

Very interesting. Clark knows something about this new CBA.
