As the Chiefs prepare for Sunday’s home game against the 49‘ers, KC sits in an unfamiliar position. At 2-0, they lead the division and are off to their best start since 2005, but a loss at home this weekend would negate a lot of the early season excitement generated by the club.
San Francisco will come into town as a desperate team already. The pre-season favorite to win the NFC West is sitting at 0-2 after their last second loss to the New Orleans Saints Monday night. Coach Mike Singletary knows that an 0-3 start would almost doom their playoff chances. Despite the loss, the 49‘ers played impressively at times against the defending world champs and QB Alex Smith showed flashes of being the quarterback they’ve been waiting for since they drafted him.
San Fran faces the same challenges KC faced a week ago. Go on the road on a short week after playing Monday night. The Chiefs showed they could do it and win. Now we’ll see it they can keep the 49‘ers from doing the same.
