KC with a big play then hands the ball back to the Niners. ---

And they were able to finish the Gronk/Weathers ad arc, with a tribute line at the end. ---

Intentional grounding? He’s going down while he throws the ball and there’s somebody very close to the ball. ---

Yes, that is a tough one. ---

He threw it towards OOB, not to Gray. Totally grounding. Mahomes looks very tentative. Weird. ---

> [@Hamlet](#): > > Mahomes looks very tentative. Nope, he’s getting pressured on every dropback, and he’s not been able to get outside the pocket. Credit the Niners D-line with domination of the Chiefs O-line. ---

Niner’s defence is very good in this game. ---

1. So far, the Canadian commercials are so much hot garbage. Nothing even a bit clever. 2. Though I think Mahomes will have a strong second half, there is nothing so far to base that on. One great long throw. Really don’t know what happened to the Chiefs short pass game or blocking. Some sloppy fumbles both ways. 3. Not that the 49ers are putting much on the board. An impressive field goal setting a record from 55 out, but so far the game is almost boring. Don’t Americans criticize soccer and hockey fans for relatively low scores? 😉 ---

Purdy has all day to throw. Mahomes doesn’t. Difference in the game so far. ---

Yes. Mahone has to throw it quicker or run it. Adapt or go home. ---

> [@Magiver](#): > > but he was being tackled at the time which interferes with the throw. While true, I don’t believe that the rule on intentional grounding takes that into account. ---
