The Athletic Football Show: A show about the NFL

Innovation, reinvention, and legacy: How the Chiefs and 49ers made it to Super Bowl LVIII, and what they're playing for on Sunday, with Nate Taylor and Matt Barrows

The Chiefs have become a Super Bowl mainstay, but this version of the Chiefs is different from any that we've previously seen. The 49ers, meanwhile, are back in the game as the league's greatest offensive juggernaut. How did these teams get here? What, beyond the obvious, is on the line on Sunday? Robert Mays is joined by Nate Taylor, The Athletic's Chiefs beat writer, and Matt Barrows, The Athletic's 49ers beat writer, to dive into those questions, and more, on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.
