Continuing on with the topsy-turvy nature of the league SF give LAR a solid beating on MNF

49ers defense is legit.

The offense is still a worry but Deebo Samuel is a monster.

Gonna be a number of teams with dominant defences battling it out this season

Scary from the 49ers. If the defense is that good all they need from Jimmy G is a bit of game management.

gossip!

Brady and Gisele are getting divorced

ooooh

The fact that he chose to come back and face NFL pass-rushers after a month of being at home said a lot...

Which one earns the most? Who pays alimony?

Divorce court should be fun. It will look for all money that Gisele will be getting everything until Tom stages the customary late comeback to get the house, the kids, and child support.

also Denver fucking suck

The 6th ranked defense carrying the 30th ranked offence to a solid 2-2 despite a soft draw.

crazy stat. Lions are #1 ranked offense and #32 ranked defense. Hilarious.

TNF right now looking like two washed QBs going 3 and out at each other

mariner4life

deadset the Waikato Spears had a better passing offence than either of these teams. Just throw after throw to grass or opposition players.

mariner4life

fuck you!!

Denver lose an absolute cripple fight in OT because our great QB who we have until at least 2050 fucking sucks and couldn't find the actual open receiver standing by himself in the EZ.

look at the dogshit stats

10 sacks int eh game. 36 first downs total

Ryan went 26/41
Wilson 21/39
Both threw 2 intercepts.

fuck

I only started following Denver a bit because I was there when they won the Superbowl and it was a very cool experience. Meanwhile 'my' team, Bengals, couldn't even trouble their division, let alone any higher. World has turned upside down.

I watched three quarters of that game.
FML.

What a cripple fight. Wilson looks a shadow of his former self. Good for him banking the cash, but fark, no legacy any more. That was a hard watch

Definitely a Super Bowl hangover for the Rams and Bengals who both have losing records at 2-3.

The Bengals always looked like a team with one really good strength and a bunch of gaps that got hot at the right time. Rams on the other hand look a bit like a team that's lost it's fire now they've won a title. They'll probably come right as the season processes.

Breece Hall had his break out game today. First RB taken in the draft, and probably would have been a top 10 pick a decade ago but shows how much less the league values RBs now. Long time since the Herschel Walker trade. Anyway, 97 yards rushing, 100 yards receiving, 1 touchdown, plus twice stopped just short after dragging defenders about 10 yards. The Jets want to be a run first team so I can see him racking up massive total yardage this season.

Daffy Jaffy

Matt Rhule the first head coach to get sacked this season. Baker now on to 6 HCs in 5 years.

1-4 so probably coming, and the Panthers fan base are happy with the decision

Front office saddled them with a couple of dogshit QBs though. Darnold and then Mayfield. Just awful.

mariner4life

little under a third of the season done now

Eagles the only undefeated team
Bills now have the best offence and best defence in the league. Rumour has it htey have been on the phone to Carolina about trading for CMC as well.

some unexpected good records
The Giants are one of the teams at 4-1
The Cowboys without their franchise QB are 4-1
The Vikings are 4-1

at the other end
the defending champs at 2-3 and are joined by their Superbowl opponents
the Raiders and the Broncos stink

At this stage the AFC championship game should be a belter.

mariner4life

oof

look, the Tua situation was a bad look. but that's on the Dolphins, not the game

but since then the "roughing the passer" rulings have been absurd. Effectively tackling the QB is now roughing. I thought the one on Brady was the worst i would see. And yet here we are, MNF, and a guy makes a regulation strip sack, actually HAS THE BALL and gets call for RTP. fucking ridiculous.

If a QB is allowed to break tackles and run, then you have to be able to tackle them

Dive at their knees? Drive them with your helmet? hit him late? throw the flag. Make a fucking sack while the dude is standing with the ball? play on
