I came into the game thinking the 49ers would be the only team capable of beating the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. But now I'm thinking the Lions could do it. Ben Johnson vs Steve Spagnuolo is a heavyweight fight. I just wonder if the Lions defense is talented enough to slow the Chiefs down?

They don't have a true #1. Their offense is primarily just a coaching masterclass. That and an elite OL.

Not having a true #1 WR doesn't seem to matter much. They have 2 backs who can catch, 1 of whom have legit speed, and a great young TE.  

And, as you point out, a very good OL who can get out and block for all these guys.

 

EDIT: I had a brain-fart when Williams did that end-around and put him down as a back not WR :blush:

How much if this is down to the Lions being great and how much is the 9ers being woeful? That might answer your question.

Holy crap, Lions are 3 quarters away from the Super Bowl. Just incredible.

 

I remember when Campbell was hired and did his presser about eating knee caps and I thought "just another meathead coach like Mike Tice". The job he's done with the front office building that team is incredible. If they win this I'd love it so much if they beat KC, even though I can't see it

Their Safety is good
