The San Francisco 49ers are taking a star-studded cast to Super Bowl LVIII to take on the Kansas City Chiefs and try to get revenge for Super Bowl LIV, when they blew a late 10-point lead against Patrick Mahomes and crew.

While much of the attention leading up to this year’s big game has been focused on Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce and his girlfriend, pop star Taylor Swift, the 49ers have a roster that is very Hollywood due to its talent and storylines.

Tight end George Kittle may fall a bit short of Kelce in the minds of most football experts and fans, but he’s a bona fide star, and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen said he “doesn’t get the credit he deserves,” per Kevin Clark.

“George Kittle doesn’t get the credit he deserves.”

Allen said that not only does Kittle catch passes well, but he is also a very physical player who is difficult to tackle and will deliver big blocks for his teammates.

In general, the Niners are a very physical team that plays unselfishly and is composed of a number of stars who have no problem blocking effectively even when they haven’t gotten the ball in a while.

If Kelce isn’t the best tight end in football, perhaps Kittle is — Kittle had 1,020 yards and six touchdowns this season, while Kelce put up 984 yards and five touchdowns.

Kittle helped the 49ers become the first NFL team to ever have a tight end, a running back, and two wide receivers with at least 1,000 yards from scrimmage apiece in the same season.

They will need all that firepower on Sunday, as the Chiefs have become an outstanding defensive team and will likely blitz Brock Purdy every chance they get on Sunday.
