Super Bowl LVIII matchups, analysis and prediction

LA Times  

San Francisco 49ers linebackers Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw celebrate a defensive play against the Green Bay Packers in the playoffs.

JAKE BRENDEL, center: Brendel is a solid, under-the-radar player whose challenge will be keeping the offensive line on the same page to counter the blitzes of Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. Brendel also will need to help to neutralize Chris Jones so the Chiefs lineman doesn’t wreck San Francisco’s plans the way he did in the Super Bowl four years ago.
