Why substance over flash will get 49ers past Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV

Substance will beat flash.

That’s not to say the 49ers can’t be flashy or the Chiefs aren’t substantively a legitimate threat to win Super Bowl LIV in Miami.

Error 0:

Oddsmakers are pretty good at what they do, rating the Chiefs a point to a point-and-a-half favorite. In other words, a tossup.

It could go either way Sunday, but when in doubt, side with the better all-around team. The 49ers are more diverse on both sides of the ball, giving them more ways to win.

The 49ers can win running or passing, or with a near-perfect blend of balance.
