ITS SUPERBOWL WEEK BABY.
We’ve been waiting over 24 weeks for this game. Kansas City Chiefs versus San Francisco 49ers.
Patrick Mahomes versus Brock Purdy.
The 49ers are are two point favorites in Las Vegas on Sunday. To say I’m excited for this game is an understatement.
Its a rematch of Super Bowl 54, when the Chiefs beat the 49ers 31-20. However, this game is much different, with the 49ers having a revamped, juggernaut offense.
The Chiefs are without star WR Tyreek Hill. I don’t expect anything less than a shootout, with points galore. Mahomes shows up in the biggest stages, and he’s proven it this playoffs again and again. I’ve made the mistake of fading him again and again.
This time I won’t make the same mistake.
I’m finally going to take the Chiefs to win. I don’t want to, but I have to.
The script is going too crazy right now for the Chiefs to not win. The Taylor Swift propaganda is through the roof. As much as I hate Taylor Swift, I’m tired of seeing her beat me. If you can’t beat them, join ’em. The Chiefs just need to score on their opening drive, and their odds to win goes up astronomically.
I’m not a man of superstition, but when the moon is in a waning crescent phase, the Chiefs are 19-1. And you best believe the the moon phase on Sunday is a waning crescent. The fate of the game will fall upon the Chiefs’ linebackers. They’ll need to stop Christian McCaffery, which is no small feat. But if there’s a defense that can do it, its the Chiefs’ defense. They’ve been out their mind, led by All-Pro corner Trent McDuffie.
This is probably one of the best defenses that has been paired under Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes. And Patrick Mahomes with a good defense is a scary sight that I don’t want to see.
However, this 49er offense is something to fear. Christian McCaffery, Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, and Trent Williams is an offense I would not want to face. Averaging almost 30 points per game and almost 400 yards per game is absolutely diabolical. The points per game ranks second in the league and the yards rank fifth.
This is led by Mr. Irrelevant, the last pick in the draft, in Brock Purdy. Purdy leads the league in QB rating, but there has been much argument on if anyone would succeed in Purdy’s position. Having one of the best supporting casts in all of football, this is a valid argument.
It’ll be a good matchup to see Sunday. Besides the game itself. I’m taking the Gatorade bath to be purple. The coin toss is going to be heads. Argue with a wall.
