TB had good CBs, but not elite. They just studied their ass off for the game, believing they were going against one of the best QBs to ever play the game, which they were. Mahomes became the Goliath, TBs' defense the David. TBs DL also heavily prepared, and really got to know Mahome's tendencies. KC prepared like many of Ried's teams in the past, thought their greatness would just come through, even if they slacked for 3 quarters, like they did in the previous year's SB. Except the previous year, KC gained respect of SF by seeing SF dominate with their run game in the NFC games, and Garrapollo didn't make the clutch throws in the 4th quarter of the SB.
