At least he managed to play more than 94 seconds this season.


I did not expect the Vikings to win past weekend, if anything I would have expected the refs to fix it for the Lions. They did much better than expected, even if they lost. Their problem is, they usually dominate before it all falls apart. Same again, but they managed to come back this time only for a coaching mistake. If all you have to do is walk down the field and kick a field goal you don't rely on running game only. Run, pass, see where you stand and either run or pass again on the 3rd down. Stupid mistake.

So the Chiefs are now the only team 6-0. And the Niners have to sort out their injuries. They can still make it, if they get their players back in the game. Cowboys are manageable, Buccs will be really hard, Seahawks and Packers should be a Niners win. The the Bills... I don't know about that. After that, the next really difficult one will be the Lions.

If the Vikings can manage not to break down after the first or second quarter and avoid coaching mistakes, they'll make it to the conference championship game hopefully facing a recovered 49ers team.

I think they will lose to the Pack, Bucs, and Seahawks.

Depends on which Bills team shows up.

So are we going to skip over the fact that Marcus Mariota came off the bench and led the Commanders to a 40 - 7 route of the Panthers? Jayden Daniels' rib injury has him listed as day to day...

BAL/TB was quite a game apparently... Too bad TB lost. I like Baker. IMHO, He's proving his critics wrong.

Many thanks to AZ for beating SD.

Russel Wilson looked pretty decent vs NYJ too...

I think any one of us could have come in and hung 40 on the Panthers… that defense is historically terrible. I’m sure he comes back down to earth in the next game if Daniel’s is still out

You're not wrong...

fantastic game for the Steelers offensive line and various runners really made the difference in that game

At this point... the Chiefs pretty much look unstoppable. I know this is a long season, but right now... they are looking pretty darn good.

We’ll see. Could be that case, but they have to improvise with all their injuries. It’s a real shame, I think they’d totally dominate if only they’d have all the players. Reminds me a little of the Niners of the 22/23 season where no one was left to play and they lost to the Eagles in the championship game.

It’s the Panthers… 🤷‍♂️ The only team worse than the Raiders.

And the irony is, they’re not full strength. Just look at Mahomes… 44.4 passer rating, two interceptions, no TD passes, one TD Running over a Niners player. His worst stats yet. If the 49er players won’t recover in time for The playoffs, I’d really like to see Chiefs vs Vikings.

awww... Thank you for being so sweet to my RAIDERS...

I hate to tell you, Pachy, but your Raiders need all the help they can get. 😂🤪

The Chiefs must have some back door dealings with the football gods.🙃 They're winning even when they suck. It ain't fair.😒 And now they landed Nuk Hopkins. Sure he's past his prime, but he's still a big time threat.

I'm still salty at Bill O'Brien for trading him for a 3rd rounder. What moron trades away a top 3 WR in his prime for a 3rd round pick?😤 The only worse trade I've seen was the Breveland Clowns trading 3 1st round pick for a QB who's lost his magic.🤕

Breveland Clowns


lol lol lol

The clowns are a dumpster fire. The owners have screwed this organization up for years to come. Watson was worst trade in NFL history.

Well, with what the Broncos gave up for Russell Wilson, and the high cost of cutting him loose, I'd say the Browns trading for Watson comes in second.

To be fair, it made sense at the time. Watson was a top 5 QB in his prime before the trade. Maybe the withdrawal from his boom boom addiction is affecting his play.🤷‍♂️

Oh, Jerry…

Are Jerry Jones' precious fan tours a hurdle to winning? Some Cowboys think so

Dallas allows fans to rub elbows with players in a way not common among the 31 other teams. Some players believe tours get in the way of championship-building.

Kupp being dangled as trade bait? He's got a big contract, and Puka is there as a fallback, but that's surprising to me, since he was the Rams offense.

Both have had injury issues, so they're not much different in that regard.

 

[pachyderm]

What is going on with the Vikings? Lost two in a row... and one of them to the Rams...?

 

[Macky-Mac]

the Jets lose to NE.....

 

[jpohio]

Browns beat Baltimore. What a difference having a reasonably good quarterback makes.

Too many penalty killing drives. The Rams aren't as bad as their record indicates.

 

[dmr727]

the Jets lose to NE.....

The Jets just being the Jets.

 

[pachyderm]

RAIDERS made an attempt to be competitive vs KC...

 

[Jxdawg]

What a win for Washington

What a win for Washington

That was unbelievable.
