Cowboys defense should study how the Chiefs contained the 49ers in the Super Bowl

The Kansas City Chiefs won their second straight Super Bowl on Sunday, beating the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime. Despite the exciting finish, the game started off slow, with the defenses from both teams playing extremely well. The 49ers held a 10-3 lead at halftime, holding Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes without a touchdown in the first half. While the 49ers defense played a good game, what Cowboys fans should really take away from the showdown was how well the Chiefs defense played against Kyle Shanahan and the San Francisco offense.

Throughout the 2023 regular season, the 49ers were arguably the most explosive offense in the NFL.
