Re: Ten and Houston had good defenses and running games too...

How'd that work out?

I hope the Chiefs hang 50 on them. Probably won't happen and the 49'ers have a real shot to win, but a fella can dream

Not like SF they didn't.

Houston was actually 28th in yards and 19th in points.

Tenn. was 21st in yards and 12th in points.

SF is 2nd in yards and 8th in points.

I doubt the KC defense is up to stopping the SF running game. It's not like Tenn because it does not depend almost entirely on OL talent. It's schemed to be what it is and is hard to counter.

Not saying who will win but it's not easy to bet against that defense.

AND Mahomes can be had. He can be knocked off his game by pressure just like any qb. The Rams did it to him in 2018. Pretty relentless pressure had him throwing to ghosts by the end of that game.

But then the Rams and Saints both were able to take it to the SF defense. So...who knows.
