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.
