The only way the owners get more games is to give the players more % in the split that will sky rocket the cap, and if they do that QB cap then all problems solved.

Plus guys like Kelce, Fisher, etc. are on the wrong side of 30; they're likely to do team friendly deals at that point. It's possible. |
For the record it's not like Sammy Watkins needs the money......he's 26 years old and he's at the end of his 6th season....
He has pocketed 53,935,603 that is a lot of money for a guy that's never really been a true 1. |

I'd add Pennel and Suggs in there too and say that no front four has played better than them the last 8 games. Maybe it's because we rotate so much? But that's just depth, baby. It's a good thing. |

Because EVERYONE gets the same cap. Again - a skyrocketing cap will simply mean that Jones can get $30 million on the market instead of $20 million. A premier DT is still going to get a massive chunk of the cap% and that's going to apply to any team that's looking to retain his services. Now it might ultimately make Clark's number a little more palatable, but recognize how few guys we have truly locked in for 2022. Mahomes is going to sign a deal commensurate w/ whatever the new CBA allows and he'll be the top dog. Hill will have one more season w/ a cap figure of $20.5 million. Clark will be at $24.7 million. That's it, fellas. That's all the cost certainty we have for those years. Literally every other new deal we have on the books then will be signed w/ an eye on the 'new world' cap figures. NFL agents aren't going to just say "oh sure, the cap took a 25% jump but we're still gonna ask for small raises over what guys got under the LAST CBA..." The market will shift accordingly. The new CBA won't save us because virtually every key player on this team will be singed to a deal that takes the new CBA into consideration and the market that the new CBA will create. |

That's a solid point, I mean if we do lose Jones I'm confident it will be a franchise and trade and not just him walking away though.

Sammy is far more important to this offense than many (most?) Planeteers would apparently like to admit.
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. FAX |

If he won't take a pay cut he needs to be let go. He's simply not worth the money he is being paid. |

107 targets in 42 career games as a 49er. That's literally 2.5 targets a game. |

I worry a bit about a play-fake where he looks to be helping on that edge and then releases about 8 yards downfield on 3rd and 5 for an easy pitch/catch on a boot from Grapes. You do that on 3rd down from our 40 and you've effectively created a scoring opportunity with zero risk and a damn high likelihood of success. Do it on 1st and goal from the 6 and you've created a TD. He can make a substantial impact on 2-3 targets if he moves the chains a few times in the process. |

Lamar Jackson, Deshaun Watson and Ryan Tannehill. One is a glorified RB, one is coached/GM'd by Bill O'Brien and the other is Ryan Tannehill (enough said). The Chiefs' QB advantage in the AFC will be vastly superior to the rest of the conference for the foreseeable future. |

They do the same thing with their fullback, TE, and (upon occasion) motion receivers. Clearly, the idea is to chip and/or fake a block then get open as you have pointed out. The answer is to attack and knock that faux blocker on his ass within 1 yard of the LOS. If it's a run, you've just taken away 2 gaps and cleared the way for the cavalry. If it's a pass, you've just taken away what may very well be their primary read. FAX |

I know the idea is to present run, get a block then release into the pattern. But if the TE or RB initiates the contact, the defender (be it Suggs, Sorensen, Wilson - whoever) can essentially mug the guy and call it 'hand-fighting' because he's representing block. Now that doesn't mean the ****ing zebras won't throw the flag anyway - but they shouldn't. If a 9er TE or RB puts his hands on a defender, knowing full well that the idea is to get hands into the chest, that defender should keep his hands inside his pads and in the process lock onto that damn guys wrists and just yank his ass towards the pile. If it's a run, you've maintained the edge. If it's a pass, you've wrecked his route. By keeping your hands inside your pads, you're unlikely to get called for defensive holding. Hand technique will be HUGE for both sides on those plays. Can the 49ers effectively sell a 'block' before going into the pattern and can the Chiefs lock them up long enough to blow those boots up. Agree 100%, sir FAX. |

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. |

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.) FAX |
Stephen A Smith picked the Chiefs...not sure how I feel about that.
Kellerman picks the Chiefs also... <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EDQpjxfo6mI" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> And Booger with some shit you'd hear from an 80 year old man. |

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.

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. FAX |
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. |

Burleson, Shrager, and Kyle what's his **** all picked the Chiefs.
Kay Adams picked the 9'ers. |
Quote:
I can’t blame anyone for picking either team though, it’s a great matchup. |
These are interesting:
Receiving Yards Vegas Odds Travis Kelce: 86+ (+108) Tyreek Hill: 86+ (+108) Sammy Watkins: 59+ yards (+108) Damien Williams: 41+ yards (-112) Demarcus Robinson: 20+ yards (-114) Mecole Hardman: 32+ yards (+112) |
Quote:
I thought for sure Burleson would go San Fran and Kay would pick the Chiefs since she's sort of a local. |
Listening to the radio there was some good points brought up..
The GB v 49er game boiled down to Rogers not taking care of the ball and giving the 9ers a short field... the GB defense giving a long TD run on 3rd down an 8... basically handing SF 17 points out of their 27 in the first half.. I Don’t see Mahomes turning the ball over and the defense playing as bad as GBs... 35-17 Chiefs.. |

If The Chiefs don't beat themselves, they'll win this game.
The 49'ers need to not beat themselves, and for the Chiefs to beat themselves. That's just how I see it. I don't think their defense matches up well. I think our defense matches up much better than anyone's giving them credit for. |
LaDainain Tomlinson picked the Chiefs......actually sounded pretty intelligent saying Chris Jones can penetrate whenever he wants to and you destroy zone runs with penetration.

Go to about 9:45 of this and he breaks it down. You can see on the replay that the center puts the ball in Rodgers hand perfectly but he just fumbles it for some reason. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UJnSU4drsPo |

This is the real start to the Mahomes decade...and cement him as an international superstar. A few timely holding calls will put the 49ers behind the sticks...KC should have the scheme in place to force Jimmy Grape-licker to test the outside. |

Kyle runs a lot of trap and gap scheme runs for just that reason. That's the big difference between what we ran last year (which the Broncos, Packers, Vikings etc also run) and what we do this year. |

Not. Worried. At. All. The Packers drove on that D just fine that game. It was the un-forced turnovers that ****ed them and that god-awful run D. I know all these 9er fan bois are all excited and have that game fresh in their minds but i watched that shit thinking: 1. TROLOLOLOL our O-line is sooo much better than that trash group GB has 2. The Rodgers fumble and piss-ass throw completely took his team out of the game. That interception was just a lazy, bad throw. Wasn't even forced. 3. The Packers D-line ****ing sucks. |

Packers Dline is basically what the Chiefs were last year. Amazing pass rushing unit, but really poor at defending the run. Niners exposed their biggest weakness two games in row.
