These tough games are coming fast and furious for the upstart youngsters that are the 49ers. They played tough but sloppy against the Vikings (a game they should have won by 14), they played great against the Lions. For 3 quarters. Now we face the hottest QB in one of the hardest road venues in the NFL, Arrowhead Stadium.
They lost their best offensive weapon in Marquise Goodwin in that Minn loss, and were down to 3rd string LBs in the Detroit win. The good news is Malcolm Smith will finally play a meaningful down after missing his first 18 games. Even more significant than that is the return of Reuben Foster. So I think the defense rallies.
Which is why I think the 49ers win tomorrow. Yeah, it’s another early start for a west coast team in a hostile environment, against the hottest QB in the NFL in Pat Mahomes, but I think their defense will be their downfall. I think our defense makes more plays against our improved D (and a hopefully healthier Ahkello Witherspoon), so we win.
My concern is what it has been since before training camp started. And that is our pass rush. DeForest Buckner is actually #2 in sacks at 3.5, but the rest of the team is at 1.5. Which sucks. The return of our LBs, and the havoc they bring (I see Foster blitzing) should be able to slow down the Mahomes express.
Forty Niners Forever 
Wow. Throw to the sticks.
Sll we need is a punt return for a td now.
D has to get them off the field this drive to have a chance in this game
Garoppolo looking a little gun shy. He wasn’t under pressure yet and still checked down.
Look at the time he gets. We might as well be on the sideklines.
That’s not a fucking penalty. Terrible call.
Foster pulled up and barely touched Mahomes. Bad call.
wow. We have a long way to go apparently. This is asinine.
Unreal. 100 yards in penalties in the first half.
But none of this is on the coaching. Unprepared every week for the different offenses, penalties galore and constant missed tackles and coverage assignments.
Niners might give up 50 today.
A complete nut squashing
Yeah. Well. So much for this game. I knew this early season schedule was going to be rough, but I didn’t think we would look this awful. The defense is offering no resistance.
Nobody said that, John.
Did the Niners really prepare for this game??
I underestimated my final score of 42-27 Chiefs looks to be more..
Now Breida is hurt. LOL
Ha ha. He’s out for a year.
That’s laughing at the football gods, not Breida’s injury. This team can’t catch a single break right now.
Breida is out for the year. Fuck.
Brieda hmmy. Wonderfrellingful
It looked like his knee went. Maybe not.
I guess it’s Raheem now.
