Super Bowl LVIII is here from Las Vegas, and the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers are going to mix it up for the second time in recent history. The betting line shows the 49ers are favorites, just barely, as they are listed at -1.5 at time of publication.
The total is listed at 47.5. One bet we are looking at is the moneyline pick for the San Francisco 49ers. It is listed at -125. That eliminates any one point win for the 49ers, still losing the bet. Let’s take a look at our San Francisco 49ers Moneyline pick and why we feel it is a good idea:

Run CMC Massive Threat
Christian McCaffrey was probably the Most Valuable Player in the National Football League this season. The former Stanford Cardinal running back went over 2,000 total yards via the ground and the air. McCaffrey also finished with 21 total touchdowns, which led the National Football League. McCaffrey has not skipped a beat in the postseason. He has four touchdowns in two games.
When he is not going to McCaffrey, there are a plethora of other options for Brock Purdy under center. The signal caller has Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle and Deebo Samuel, who all prove to be big time threats. Aiyuk led the team with 1,342 yards, while Samuel and Kittle combined for more than 1,900. When in the red zone, it’s hard to figure out who is getting the ball. Aiyuk, Samuel and McCaffrey all had 7 touchdown receptions, while Kittle had 6.
Big Time Key in the Offense
Kittle is a key for the 49ers. The tight end from Iowa had 65 receptions on the season, and the guy that can help move the chains in times of need. He was a very outspoken member of the 49ers following the loss to the Chiefs in the previous Super Bowl. There is no doubt he is going to have plenty of motivation in this game.
Defense Has to be Better
There really is no doubt the San Francisco 49ers defense has to be better in this game than they have been in their two postseason games so far. In wins over the Packers and Lions, the 49ers allowed 26 points per game. While they can certainly still win the game allowing 26 points, they likely do not want to let Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs move the ball up and down the field and take their chances. The 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan knows the improvement of the defense is a massive key for the squad.
On the defensive side, Dre Greenlaw was the key in the win over the Packers with two interceptions, including one late to seal the deal. Other key names for the 49ers star with Nick Bosa. Fred Warner forced four fumbles on the season, and will be key in making sure the Chiefs do not gain the extra yards. Warner led the team with 132 tackles on the season.
In the passing game, Warner is also a key, as he had four interceptions on the season.
Looking to Add to the History Book
The San Francisco 49ers have been around the National Football League now for 80 years. They have been playing in games since the 1946 season. The Dallas Cowboys also have five. This is the 9th Super Bowl the 49ers will play in. They have not won the big game since 1994, with losses in 2012 and 2019.
Joe Montana was the first winner of the Super Bowl MVP in the 49ers history. He won the award in Super Bowl XVI and then again in XIX. After Jerry Rice won it with 215 yards in Super Bowl XXIII, Montana won his third award with five passing touchdowns.
Whoever wins the award will join Patrick Mahomes, Tom Brady, Cooper Kupp, and again Patrick Mahomes as the winners over the past five seasons. Brock Purdy is listed at +225 to win the award, while Christian McCaffrey comes in at +425. Deebo Samuel is third for the 49ers on the list at +2000, while Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle are +6000, and Nick Bosa is +7500.
49ers Win Super Bowl LVIII
In the end, betting on the San Francisco 49ers -125 seems to be the right choice here. Many of the 49ers on the squad that lost to the Chiefs last time are going to out for a little extra blood in this one. The 49ers have been the best team in the league all season. Sure, Kansas City is playing great football in the postseason, and that is an experienced squad, but push comes to shove and the 49ers are the better football team.
Christian McCaffrey is a big deal, and when the Chiefs do finally get a chance to slow him down, Brock Purdy has weapons galore. The 49ers have more weapons than the Chiefs do. Kansas City has been elite on defense, but they haven’t faced what they will see when the 49ers reach the field. The 49ers win this game, which is why we are going with the San Francisco moneyline pick at -125!
