The masses are counting on the 49ers. I hope you've got your pregame rituals dialed in.
I feel the same way about this game as I did about the last two playoff games. If the 49ers are at the top of their game, which they haven't been recently, they will win. If they aren't they will probably have to pull a rabbit out of a hat like they did in the last two but I am not sure that trick will work with Mahomes and crew. The 49ers are the better team but the Chiefs are playing like the better team right now so we will see. I don't think the game is going to be that close. I could easily see either team winning by 10 or more.

The way the Chiefs beat the Ravens has me concerned. You've mentioned the 49ers play poorly when they get behind. KC threw their whole playbook at Baltimore right away to build a lead and Baltimore just couldn't catch up.
Better pray to whichever god might allow Fred Warner to win his match ups with Kelce.

Yes the Chiefs came out hot and then the Ravens D completely shut them down. 49ers D is not as good as Ravens D but the Ravens also missed a bunch of opportunities that could have swung that game their way. Chiefs are rounding into form at the right time and the 49ers are backing their way into the championship game. Hopefully the week off slowed down the chiefs momentum and the 49ers can get out to an early lead before Mahomes starts firing on all cylinders.
