Super Bowl Shenanigans: 10 Reasons the 49ers will win on Sunday

The Big game is 4 days away. We have two great teams ready to battle and both have a realistic chance at winning. Today I give you 10 reasons the 49ers will hoist the Lombardi trophy on Sunday.

1. White Jerseys

Did you know that teams who have worn white jerseys are 16-3 in the Super Bowl in the last 19 match ups. The Chiefs are the home team and they stupidly chose their red jerseys. It’s like they think the color jersey they wear as absolutely no effect on the game. I mean if the stupid Bucs had picked their home jerseys we would have already won back to back championships. But I am sure Tom Brady was like, I’ve done the research guys…we want to be wearing white. There is one issue though for the 49ers though…they are one of the 3 teams to lose to the Chiefs while wearing white. But surely that won’t happen again. 

2. CMC

I don’t know if you know this but this McCaffrey guy is good at sports. He scored a touchdown in like 147 straight games or something. He is the best non quarterback in the game and in my opinion should win the MVP this year. He had over 2,000 yards form scrimmage and had 21 touchdowns. The guy quite frankly can do it all. The Chiefs Defense is really good but if they have two weaknesses it is defending the run and defending running backs out of the backfield. Yikes.

3. Revenge Game

The 49ers have to be bitter about how they lost the super bowl game last time. They had a 10 point lead with 7 minutes left in the game and lost by 11. I would say that is an all time fail…but Shanahan once did one better as a coordinator having a 28-3 lead at the half and didn’t score again  While they certainly have some different players, they have enough left over players that will be extra motivated to not just win but to win against the Chiefs.

4. It’s real hard to win back to back

No one has won back to back championships in the NFL since 2003-2004. That is crazy and shows the parody and competitiveness of the league. It’s what makes football the greatest sport. Every year you feel like your team has a chance to win it because no one wins it consecutively. Spoiler alert, your team is probably not winning it next year. So the task that the Chiefs are taking on, isn’t an easy one. This works in the 49ers favor. 

5. Good edge rushers vs bad tackles

The 49ers have Nick Bosa and Chase Young. The Chiefs have Jawaan Taylor and Donovan Smith who are penalty machines. They have been better of late which is why I am sure the 49ers are pushing the “holding” narrative before the game even starts. Expect the Chiefs tackles to get holding calls early and often.

6. A Male musician at halftime.

The Chiefs are 2-0 with lady singers. The first time with J-Lo and Shakira (in case you forgot) and the second time with Rhianna. However, when The Weekend performed they lost. This year the 49ers are saying YEAH! because Usher is performing. They are hoping this turns out OKAY! for them. If it doesn’t, the 49ers might just have to let it burn. But we won’t know for sure until they reveal their confessions. 

7. Everyone is betting the Chiefs

This is perhaps the most concerning thing for me.  The Chiefs are underdogs by 2-2.5 points. This means that 49ers have to win by a field goal or more to cover. The majority of the betting is currently on the Chiefs but the number hasn’t moved. I don’t believe in scripted or conspiracies when it comes to football. But I also believe that the house never loses. So I don’t like this trend. 

8. Shanahan is due.

Kyle Shanahan is a great coach. Arguably one of the top 5 coaches in the league. He has blown too big leagues in the super bowl. Good coaches eventually win, case and point Andy Reid. Kyle is due. 

9. Kittle is a match up nightmare.

Kittle is the best tight end in the league this year. Our linebackers are good in coverage but no one is good at covering Kittle. Kittle and CMC having big days will be a problem for the Chiefs. The Chiefs have been good at covering tight ends in the playoffs. But none of those tight ends are named George Kittle. 

10. The world is tired of the Chiefs.

All the winning is a lot, but then you have commercials with Pat and Travis and Andy in them pretty much every commercial break. Then you add in Taylor Swift and all that comes with her. It is too much for the world to take and so the 49ers must break it. At least that is what everyone but Chiefs fans is hoping. 

Tune in tomorrow to see 10 reasons why the Chiefs will win.
