The 49ers have aren't some team that sucks when you force them to pass. Every team tried that in the regular season and it kinda worked against the Rams but didn't work at all against us when Kittle was on the field.

On film, Minnesota and GreenBay clearly sold out against the pass (particularly the play action pass and RPO pass) so Kyle ran it down throats. I actually think it's a better strategy to try to stop our passing game than our run game but GB and MN couldn't score against our D.

Selling out against the run means you're going to give up the big play all day but the storylines kinda.ignore that.

On film, the Titan run game is only superficially like the 49ers run game.

Every team comes in saying the same stuff...

"Our run defense has improved so much... We can shut down the 49ers run game"

"Our offensive line is the best you've seen all year and we can handle the rush"

"Your secondary isn't that good, you can't guard (Thomas/OBJ/Adams/Cooks/Diggs/CMC/running back out of the backfield)"

"The 49ers haven't played anyone yet"

We were literally underdogs to the Bengals, Browns, and Panthers.
If we were having this conversation on a 49ers forum, you'd have all the right in the world to complain about this.

You're in our house. You chose to come here. You can't expect everyone to welcome you and beg you to please tell us how inevitable it is for your team to bear our team.

And when you/your fellow 49ers fans say things that show you have followed the Chiefs only superficially, expect to get called out for them.
