I'm with you on that. Although the browns would have been good last night if it wasnt for our pass rush so i'd say they are still a decent team. The bucs have gone on to thump the rams and the steelers have had some close games so i wouldnt rule them out as being rubbish. Bengals on the other hand...

The Browns are good on paper (They certainly have a lot of good players) but they need to show that on the field and they haven't done that yet apart from the Baltimore game. The Bucs have improved since Arians and Bowles teamed up. Not sure what to make of the Rams. They seem to have a bit of a hangover from the Superbowl, and as for the Steelers we look like we are still in pre-season

Not sure what is happening with the Bengals. The way they are going they will have the no.1 pick next year.

Next week should be a good test for the 49ers vs the Chargers. Still kind of a home game as well seeing as the Chargers have awful support.

Love how everyone's STILL sleeping on my niners. Once we get staley back and our FB isn't out for too long we're in for a playoff run!

Been a niner fan since 2014 and it's been a rough ride thats for sure. Nice to win for a change and seeing the swagger our team has is awesome.

A rough ride since 2014 Pish!?! Try being a Titans fan for 20+ years

Niners haven't really played anyone they good, best the Rams then I'll believe.

You picked a bad time to start following

Post SB loss/Harbaugh last season?

Kyle seems the real deal as HC, some of the plays he schemes are fascinating.

The Redskins offence has never been better (recently) than when Kyle was our OC. I have a lot of respect for him.

Try being a Lions fan for (insert any date period here)...

Actually this season has been very positive, threw it away against the Cardinals in game 1 and really impressive against the Chiefs.

When they introduced 'RNB singer Kelly Finnegan' I didn't expect to see a middle aged white dude singing!

It reminds me how slow games are when I'm only watching one of them.

Good start to the day.

Went against the line on Seahawks and Saints, neither had a promising start

BlueMerle · 13 Oct 2019 at 18:35

Big mistake by Zimmer not throwing the flag on what was clearly a TD. I hope it doesn't come back to bite him in the ***!

ETA: nevermind

No1newts · 13 Oct 2019 at 19:03

I had a choice of Minshew or Cousins in fantasy, I took Minshew

Fitzmagic

Ownership will want him dead if he wins this game on a 2pt conversion

Edit: if that wasn't a purposeful attempt to lose the game I've never seen one.

AndyCr15 · 13 Oct 2019 at 21:10

Ha ha, I almost wanted them to score... Tbf, even if he caught that, he wasn't going in with it.

Yip, ownership got Flores on the mic and told him to kill that play dead

Add a QB and Jets look a little like a football team.

Both came in, last part of my bet is 52.5+ points in falcons/cardinals, need the falcons to start balling.

Was a really good game, no denying the Niners now.

fully deserved, pats have shown how the rams can be beat, and a few teams have the players to do it and are.

Mcvay needs to sort himself out, nfl you have to adapt and he's not.

hasn't helped having a new left guard/centre but other teams have similar issues.

No1newts · 15 Oct 2019 at 15:06

The calls on Flowers were a complete disgrace. Packers could still have won without but the ref handed it to the Packers.

Hate stuff like that.

@BlueMerle what's the deal in the NFL with regsrds tickets and getting them for games?

Wanted to see a live game in the US for years and my son has decided he's a Texans fan (scum) so thinking of spending time over there next October and try and get a Texans and a cowboys game.

Is it hard to get tickets? When do they come out?

Early days but thinking of some ideas.
