TBay won with a QB nobody remembers.

The immortal Brad Johnson. More than serviceable but certainly no Favre or Manning.

...supposedly the Mets won two World Series, I only remember one in the 1980s :p

Mets were just in The Series in 2015. They lost but they were there. Any team with DeGrom and Syndergaard has a chance.

Did you not see the SARCASM tag?

I think SF will win. I think they could possibly dominate KC.
Of course a strong running game and defense is better than a offense that drops back to pass on every play.
I can not believe that KC is slightly favored at this point. Put your money on SF.

Defenses always win championships.

I really haven’t followed baseball in years; I just hear ribbing back and forth between co-workers. I honestly didn’t know they were in the World Series in 2015; thank you!

(It still doesn’t change my opinion of them, but I’m better informed)

[Rummyfan]

Yes they lost to the Royals who were very very good that year.

[EdnaMode]

Looking forward to the Joe Montana Bowl. Hope it’s a good game.

[SkyPilot]

It's been improving week over week.

That's true.

[Tommy Revolts]

Go with the paesano QB of the 49ers :)

Go with the paesano Defensive Coordinator of the Chiefs! They'll shut that run down.

Mahomes will pick that 49ers defense apart.

Nobody beating the Chiefs!

Hail To The Kingdom

KC has been successful by taking the run out of the play calling of the opposition by LEADING most of the game. And they STILL finished 26th.

You mean like being down to Houston 24-0 in the last game?

[catnipman]

if i was a betting man, i’d take SF with KC being 1.5 point favorites ...

[catnipman]

“And if they mess up early like they did 2 weeks ago, San Fran won’t let them come back.”

no kidding ...

[catnipman]

“Anybody with insight on the line v. line battle? The Niners have been absolutely mauling teams on both lines of scrimmage.”

i’ve watched all the SF and KC playoff games and it looks to me like both lines of the niners can’t be beat by anyone, including KC ... i haven’t seen such dominate lines in a very long time, especially the niners offensive line ...

Ah, the Yankees’ old nemesis - George Brett’s Royals...
