The champion grabbed a staggering win against the Ravens with his impressive touchdown and the tremendous strategic mindset of coach Andy Reid. As the Chiefs head to the big game, the 2x MVP revealed some bumps on the road to their success.

The Super Bowl will occur on February 11 at Allegiant Stadium at 6:00 pm ET. This season, the reigning team Kansas City Chiefs will face off against the San Francisco 49ers after their last confrontation in 2020. This showdown will be challenging for the Chiefs, mainly because of the 49ers’ powerful defense. To address this burning issue, Mahomes left no stone unturned in warning his teammates about it.

During the latest pre-game conference, the star quarterback emphasizes the need for higher execution against the 49ers’ defense. The QB said,” I think we need to execute at a higher level in the second half after watching the film. There are still some chances there, but when you don’t manage versus a great defense. Um, drive stall up, and that’ll be very similar to the next game we’re playing. I mean, that’s a tremendous defense that we’re going up against, and then we’re going to have to be high execution, kind of like we were in the first half.”

Mahomes stance is fair enough, given the 49ers’ incredible performance this season. The team had a solid start this season, leading with a 14-5 record this post-season. Besides, the 49ers stand tall against the Lions’ powerful defense in the divisional round. Although they struggled in the first half against the Lions’ defense, facing a 17-point deficit at halftime. But the team made a comeback in the second half with their defense by putting pressure on Jared Goff and grabbing the win.

Like Mahomes, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan also points out the threat they might face in the Super Bowl.
