And now, my final breakdown and score prediction.
Position: KPRC 2 Reporter
Winner: Chiefs
Score: 30-21
I really like what Carr had to say with the “2 or 20” thing because I think there are two ways this game goes.
1. The 49ers jump on the Chiefs early like the Texans did through turnovers, then Patrick Mahomes leads the Chiefs back in a close win.
2. The Chiefs dismantle the 49ers early and hold on to win by around 17. The two scores that I thought about during the week were 27-24 and 34-17.
My final prediction is somewhere in the middle, I’m going 30-21 with Patrick Mahomes getting MVP Honors and 49ers tight end George Kittle racking up a ton of yards in a comeback effort.
Also, Niners fans, yikes, everyone we talked to really, really liked the Chiefs.
