Yea the Chiefs are the fastest team in the league but the Niners aren’t far behind. It’s more about how does Mostert’s speed compare with the Chiefs defense speed and vice versa.

Mostert was a track star himself, like Tyreek Hill.

Niners also use a Fullback (and a good one) as much as anybody in the league pus have one of the best blocking TEs as well so the Niners rum behind the best collective line and combo of FB/TE in the league – way different trying to stop them than a North-South one back set running game. Ask Minnesota and the Packers how it worked for them.

this will come down to if Jimmy can win in a shootout vs them. I dont think he can and I am betting accordingly. I bet on the chiefs and niners last go around and it was easy money. I fully believe the chiefs stomp them- look at the game by game results of the niners wins
many of their wins were against truly garbage teams as well as teams missing their number one qb

look at their game by game results-most teams they beat were garbage teams and even teams without their qb
their defense gave up 25+ points in 6 games

qbs that can scramble like Murray Russ and Jackson all had games where they had success vs this defense and none of them have the fire power KC has

mahomes is the true league MVP and the KC offense is one of the most explosive offenses I have seen in all of my years of watching football
they wont be stopped

There was that stretch of the season where they were missing a ton of bodies due to injury, including Offensive lineman, TEs and Juice who are all part of the run blocking that made their offense so potent.

You can’t pick one-off reg season games to assess a matchup; I can say the Chiefs suck because they lost at home in KC vs Indy and couldn’t score more than 13 points with a healthy Mahomes !

Yes Lamar ran for 106 vs SF but that was because they shit down the passing game and held him to 105yds passing and he was running for his life – don’t just look at one stat – the Niners dominated both lines of scrimmage that game vs Baltimore and in no way should have lost on a last second FG.

Again, people can pick on this or that about SF, but they were as close to being unbeaten right now as anyone since the Patriots were 18-0 heading to the SB. Last play of the game FG vs Baltimore in a game they dominated; OT FG loss vs Seattle in a game that went back/forth and a Julio TD that broke the plane with 2 seconds left in a total letdown spot at home after having just played GB/Balt/NO. The Niners don’t always win pretty but they do what it takes to win.

people forget mahomes and co did so much damage in the cold weather-put them in sunny florida and watch out..SF will be toast

They only scored 28 and 24 in California vs Oakland/Chargers – maybe they don’t like warm weather !

I believe the niners played a soft schedule and qbs that can run did run on them-their defense also proved they can be lit up vs a potent offense-see the saints

@emnj69 Explain how the Chargers were able to keep the Chiefs in check. Mahomes threw 19/32 times and ended up with 182 yards. Tyreek Hill was injured early (but they had Hardman who is also fast) Was it the Chargers above average secondary (Niners are better), what about their pass rush with Joey Bosa and co (Niners have Nick Bosa). What about how the Patriots contained KC to 23 points? Niners secondary actually grades out better than the Patriots for the season.

lol vs the raiders mahomes had 4 tds and over 400 yards passing with no ints vs the raiders I think he does just fine in warm weather

And their offense was still good when those guys were out lmao.

come on now u are going say hill was hurt and then come back with but the had hardman….. hill is one of the most if not most explosive WRS in football and at that time Sammy was not fully heallthy either and the team was trying to let a washed shady be the guy d williams got 4 carries that game-now he is the lead dog and putting up monster numbers

this game will be like taking candy from a baby

Your argument about the Niners is exactly the same though, you are not factoring any injuries that affected their performance and now that they are healthy, they are putting up monster numbers on both sides of the ball.

It’s almost as dumb as saying the Niners won the preseason game, so they are the better team.

I have played a lot of Showdowns. The best ways to be unique are:

-Leave a lot ($3K+) on the table.
-Play a low owned captain.
-Play a DST that is against 2+ of your players.
-Play a $1K or – guy.
-Play weird things (like two RBs from the same team, or a QB-RB stack).

I wouldn’t do all those strategies in one lineup though.

To win that one, you’ll likely need to be perfect anyway, but most of the time, perfect lineups leave $2K+ on the table. I have almost never seen a weak captain in a perfect lineup. Taysom Hill was close once, but someone passed him.

u posted that the chiefs offense essentially should have been the same replacing hill maybe the best wr in football with hardman because he is fast-that is one of the dumbest comments I have ever read

Byron Pringle was the captain in the showdown when he went off.

It seems like leaning Niners will be contrarian

Forget about that game then, what about the Patriots, why didn’t Mahomes throw for 400 yards and 6 TDs?

I am pretty sure pringle was a captain one week and was in the winning line up
I believe the slate will come down to breida for many if he can have an impact or not

u make this too easy
the guy hurt his hand on the second series of the game and had to convince the trainers to let him continue to play-he said he had to throw short passes over the middle because he could not throw a deep ball like he normally could. I think the hands are pretty important to a qb lol

forget about the fact that they were missing two rbs and playing in the hardest place to play in recent history

oh and they still won the game

I took a quick look at every Showdown’s perfect lineup, and Byron Pringle is the only exception.

it was the perfect storm and I honestly didnt even remotely consider playing pringle that night to be honest I didnt even know pringle existed before that night

Tried this with a small Soccer contest to test it out, you still need to manually check it though unless im missing something?

Must be an easier way to check unique line ups?

470,000 entries in the superbowl contest so manually isn’t an option on that.
