Why the San Francisco 49ers will win (or lose) vs. the Chiefs on Sunday Two teams square off with their phenom quarterbacks in their respective first full year as a starter. San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo hopped on the scene last December and became the greatest thing since sliced bread. The 49ers were winless before he arrived [url=www.thechiefsfootballauthentic.com]Kansas City Chiefs T-Shirt[/url] , and won their final five games when he moved into the starting lineup. It earned him a nine-figure offseason contract and absurd expectations.Garoppolo has had his ups and downs through the first two games, and that opened the door for Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to move into the spotlight. Throwing ten touchdowns in two games has certainly helped! Now we’ll wait and see if he follows in the mold of Jimmy G and goes on an offseason date with a porn star!Y’all are rightfully obsessed with the goings-on of Mahomes, and so I’m here to throw out my two cents on my 49ers. I chatted with Pete this week and thought it would be fun for each of us to offer up explanations for why our team would win this game and why they would lose this game. It’s a chance to explore the strengths and weaknesses of both our squads.Why the 49ers will winKyle Terada-USA TODAY SportsThe 49ers are a 6.5 point dog and most of the betting public is on the Chiefs — and rightfully so. If the 49ers are going to win this game, they’ll have to play a near perfect game on offense, and their defense will have to get its act in gear. On offense, the team has to minimize drops, which have been a big issue these first couple weeks. Additionally, the pass catchers will need to do a better job finding separation. Whether that happens through their physical skills or Kyle Shanahan dialing up some new looks, they have struggled with separation. And Jimmy Garoppolo will need to be more decisive. He struggled with turnovers in Week 1 [url=www.thechiefsfootballauthentic.com]Kansas City Chiefs Hats[/url] , but then held onto the ball too long in Week 2. He needs to find the middle ground because the 49ers will likely need to put up 30+ points to win this game.On defense, it’s less about stopping, and more about containing the passing game. The 49ers have had big problems tackling ball carriers through the first two weeks. Considering the Chiefs home run plays these first two weeks, that is a recipe for disaster. If the 49ers can keep things in front of them and then close the deal on tackling, they might actually have a shot at getting enough stops to win a shootout.Why the 49ers will loseSergio Estrada-USA TODAY SportsOn defense, it’s pretty simple. If they continue to miss tackles and the secondary struggles with the Chiefs speed, this game could turn into a washout in a hurry. We’ve seen what the Chiefs can do to opposing defenses, so it’s pretty cut and dry.On offense, if the 49ers don’t improve their consistency [url=www.thechiefsfootballauthentic.com]Kansas City Chiefs Womens Hoodie[/url] , they won’t score nearly enough points to win this game. We have seen hints of how good this offense could be, but it has not happened regularly enough. They managed 30 points against the Detroit Lions last week, and even then receivers struggled to get open and Garoppolo was a little too hesitant to pull the trigger. I think even in a loss the 49ers offense could have a solid enough day, but to put up the kind of points they need to win this kind of game, they need to get on the same page.Tyreek Hill has reached Devin Hester status when it comes to punt returns Devin Hester, most famously known as a Chicago Bear, is widely regarded as the greatest returner in NFL history. But I think it’s becoming at least somewhat arguable that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill could give him a run for his money. Hill returned the Los Angeles Chargers’ first punt of the game last week for a touchdown, the fourth punt-return touchdown of his career. One of the more telling quotes came from Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn, who stressed that he had his team prepared for Hill but could do nothing about him:Preparation didn’t matter. “Orlando (Scandrick) was singled up on a gunner and went down and made a nice no-block [url=www.thechiefsfootballauthentic.com]Womens Customized Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys[/url] ,” Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub said, describing the play. “He got in this guy’s way so that Tyreek (Hill) could get started. That was an important block where he didn’t have a penalty but also made a block. I think the most important block though was Armani Watts. He went out and got him to the edge and blocked (Derek) Watt, number 34 and got him to the ground, which enabled 10 (Tyreek Hill) to get to the corner. We got another block by a rookie, (Tremon) Smith, 39, 56 (Ben) Niemann made his block and then we were just out running. (Marcus) Kemp finished the punter and it was all over. Usually, when 10 (Hill) can get to the edge, he just changes angles so much it looks like it’s easy. He’s an amazing kid.”Then we asked Uncle Dave what kind of precedent the score set for teams around the league scheduled to play the Chiefs—and that’s when Hester came up.“This is very similar to what we had with Devin (Hester) at Chicago [url=www.kansascitychiefsteamonline.com]Authentic Patrick Mahomes Jersey[/url] ,” Toub said. “They are going to try to hang the ball more, kick it out of bounds, but it’s hard to do that on a consistent basis. He is going to get his chances, but the main thing is, maybe we will create more field position just by having him lined up in there. It’s a good thing for us.”I’m not sure Hill will ever reach the status of Hester when it comes returning, as Hill is tracking to develop into much greater a complete player than Hester.But if it were possible to isolate the two, I believe Hill would certainly be right there.
