Super Bowl 2020 picks, predictions against spread: Why 49ers will beat Chiefs in Super Bowl 54
Makes sense to me.
I see us holding them to a little less points than 31. Reason being we have the defense to force a few more field goals vice TD's.
Got This ,nobody has it better!!
Not a problem. The article is about the draft but the post was put in to show this writer has already decided that the Chiefs will win the Super Bowl by giving them pick #32.For me whenever the value is close in Round 1, i'd choose defense. But because we pick so late in the round, an offensive linemen could easily be the value pick? I'd be perfectly fine with an offensive linemen next draft, even if he's not the game 1 starter.
There are just too many injuries nowadays and we just can't afford to lose JG. So having a quality back-up Center/OG is prudent. He will certainly be the starter from 2021 on.
Oh wait, this is the Superbowl thread, not about the draft. To me doesn't matter who others pick, i feel if we don't turn it over, we have a better than 50% chance.

However, to your point, if they lose Ward, I might go Safety. But O Line would be OK.
That part I disagree with. The Chiefs are, and should be, favored. It comes down to which team can stop the other's strength. I like the Chiefs' ability to stop the 49er running game more than I like the 49ers' ability to stop the Chiefs passing game.For me whenever the value is close in Round 1, i'd choose defense.

Yes. That passing game cannot be stopped and the Chiefs have shown they can stop the run by shutting down Henry on Sunday.Your opinion is fine but i feel you need to look at the entire team, not just strength. Looking at four areas seems better than 2:
Passing Offense = Chiefs
Running Offense = 49ers
Passing Defense = 49ers
Running Defense = 49ers
The 49ers are better in 3 of the 4 areas so again, i feel >50% is warranted.
Next, are these strengths much more stronger than the other team? How far back is their run game compared to ours? Their run D compared to ours? Their passing D compared to ours?
I don't think any defense can stop the Chiefs but if there is one who has a chance its the 49ers.Clearly, the 49er's are best equipped to apply pressure on Mahomes. Not saying it'll in fact get sacks, but its the best D-line where you can't game plan against one guy. Due to the ability across the line, the Chiefs won't have as much opportunities to throw way down field. "Way down field" meaning like the throw to Sammy Watkins. This takes some pressure off the secondary to cover the quick Tyreek Hill, Mecole Hardman, and Watkins.
We're not going to stop their passing game, but feel we can slow them down.
Don't sleep on the 49er passing game though. On that first TD drive on Sunday Garoppolo was sharp; no reason to doubt him because he only needed to throw 8 passes. If they run effectively that might open up some nice play action passing. That is my hope.The number I had in my head was 31 or a little less. I do believe the 49ers can win a game like that because I don't feel the Chiefs defense can stop the 49ers running game.
Yephaaaa, yes its a GREAT feeling for sure!
As we 49er fans know, the play-offs aren't a given every year. Then winning play-off games aren't easy granted this year it went our way having the 1 seed. Playing in the SB is something to enjoy for the next two weeks cause you never know when we'll get back? When the game is played it won't be "enjoyable" because it'll be too INTENSE!
