The Kansas City Chiefs are finalising a trade with the Tennessee Titans for wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, as Patrick Mahomes is set to be gifted a new offensive weapon.

The 49ers were without three of their top playmakers for much of the matchup, with running back Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) and wide receivers Brandon Aiyuk (knee) and Deebo Samuel (illness) all sidelined by the end of the day. Their final touchdown, a sneak by Purdy, came with under two minutes to play.

The formula might look a bit different with the defense and running game carrying the Kansas City Chiefs. But the results are awfully familiar as the two-time defending champions keep knocking off teams — especially the San Francisco 49ers.
