Enterntaining MNF game for the neutral, but not either Bronco nor Browns fans.
Jameis Winston of all QBs has shredded the excellent Bronco defense to the tune of 476 yards and 6 touchdowns. Problem for the Browns re 2 of those TDs are pick-6s.
Jerry Jeudy revenge game in Denver has been ridiculous.Bo Nix has done alright himself as well.
Game is not dead yet either
Edit: okay it is now. Denver wins -
Denver defence did enough in the end. Unsure why Payton was getting Bo Nix into a shootout with Jameis - some of those deep balls were questionable at best.
Nix looks the goods though. A lot of poise and can really sling it. No reason to think they can't win a playoff game.

did you see the throw for the 93-yarder? a fucking missile with zero margin for error

Even when 49ers are having a down season they are never dull
With their season on the line in the 3rd quarter and their starting linebacker Greenlaw getting hurt backup linebacker Campbell refused to play when he was needed and went to the locker room.
Absolutely insane
If we decided to quit before the game they could have made another linebacker active - instead he quits mid game.
The final nail in the coffin. Deebo is a complete shell of himself and Purdy's limitations were all on display. Was pleasing see Greenlaw look like his old self in the first half though.

Saw a theory that this season is basically where you're seeing the cost of the Lance bust. Because they were a good team getting good QB play from Purdy they'd been able to wear the damage but this is the point where they'd probably have another couple of contributors (from the traded away firsts) starting to establish themselves as part of the core, but instead you've got the same guys trying to do it year after year.

I'd have told him to keep walking out to the car park. DCM.

My mate is old school Cincinnati... Went to the last pre-Burrow playoff game there in the 80s. I'm just a big Burrow fan, that dude is clutch.
Defence still can't stop the run though

NFL throws out great entertainment week after week.
Except for the 6-3 stinker earlier this week...
Now that I'm a Seahawks supporter, I had to watch an highlights package of that.
And yes, There was indeed an highlights package available. Over 8 minutes long. I know I'm new to this sport and still figuring it out, but.... What...? How...? -

Interesting sub plot in the otherwise meaningless yet entertaining 49ers Lions game today:
Purdy came out injured near the end of the game and has an elbow injury to throwing shoulder - noting that 2 years ago he missed 6 months from elbow surgery to the same elbow after suffering a torn UCL.
Purdy is eligible for a huge new contract this offseason but his play this season has been poor.
I like Purdy as a dude and generally as a player but you cannot justify paying him elite $. This new injury could throw a cat amongst the pigeons.
