49ers-Chiefs FINALLY gives us a red vs. red Super Bowl

For the first time ever, two teams with red as a primary color will meet in Super Bowl 54. That’s fitting, considering both teams are red-hot as double-digit winners in all of their playoff games.

The Kansas City Chiefs wear red and white with a little bit of yellow. The San Francisco 49ers wear red and white with a little more gold than the Chiefs’ yellow.

Of course, it won’t be too hard to tell the teams apart on Super Bowl Sunday. One will wear their predominantly white jerseys while the other will wear red. The AFC is the designated home team — it alternates between conferences every year — so Kansas City stakes claim to the red jerseys.

As for the 49ers, it was reported on Monday that they will be donning their traditional white tops, gold bottom road uniforms. San Francisco is 2-0 in Super Bowls wearing that combination. Although there were some rumors indicating that the 49ers would petition to wear their 1994 all-white throwback uniforms, they’re sticking with the traditional road unis for the Super Bowl.

Kinda disappointed we won’t see these in Miami tbh:

Teams have done this in the past before — the Rams wore throwbacks in the Super Bowl just last year. But don’t worry too much about telling these two teams apart. The Chiefs and 49ers met in preseason and it wasn’t difficult at all to differentiate the two squads.

The 49ers also played two Super Bowls against the Bengals — a team with orange as its main color — and it was clear which team was which:

Regardless of who is wearing what, it’ll be a red-and-white team vs. a red-and-white team. And fans of both teams traveling to Miami for the game will undoubtedly do so in red gear.

There have been plenty of blue vs. blue Super Bowls through the years. The Rams vs. Patriots matchup in Super Bowl 53 last year qualifies. Super Bowl 49 with the Patriots and Seahawks is an even better example.

Finally, a red vs. red Super Bowl is here to spice things up.
