OldFaithfulcap Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 49ers are very solid early on. As a 49ers fan its a little strange as we haven't had aiyuk and deebo at full strange and bosa hasn't been great so far. Pretty scary upside. The other danger is complacency from being unbeaten. I hope we beat the cowboys and then we can lose to the bengals or vikes or a bad team before rebounding. The other thing is that it's superbowl ir bust. Not just the old time history but the run of nfc championship games means we either make the superbowl ir its a disappointment. Philadelphia will again be in the mix and the lions are better again.

The Arrogant Worms Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Smart Play by Patrick Mahomes Cost Chiefs Bettors Tens of Millions, per Report https://www.si.com/nfl/2023/10/02/patrick-mahomes-chiefs-smart-play-bettors-tens-millions-report With about two minutes left of game time during Sunday night’s Chiefs–Jets game, Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes could’ve easily scored one final touchdown to solidify the team’s lead. As Mahomes ran for nine yards, picking up the first down, he slid while remaining in bounds at the 2-yard line so the Chiefs could kneel out the remainder of the game. It was a smart football play, but some betting fans weren’t too thrilled with the reigning NFL MVP’s choice. The Chiefs entered the game as 8-point favorites, but Kansas City didn’t cover the spread as the final score was 23–20. A touchdown would have put them over the spread, but it would have given the Jets the ball back. Various betting sites, such as Caesars Sportsbook and DraftKings, reported that a large majority of the bets made on Sunday night’s game were on the Chiefs’ point spread. While an exact number of money lost is unknown, according to ESPN, it’s expected to be millions that fans could have won if Mahomes didn’t slide. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't help but notice this line after re-reading your post.... I wonder who the "Cowboy" on the Lions' defense is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll hit their stride soon. This Swift-Kelce thing won't go away unless KC starts losing and the fans turn on her. It's funny, because a lot of the online chatter was about how the fix was in after the questionable PI call on the ball that was intercepted by the Jets... ....but to me the real head scratcher was how there wasn't a holding call on that 25 yd, 3rd down run by Mahomes. The Jets' D-Lineman was actually waving at the ref, trying to call attention to the fact that the blocker had a handful of his jersey.... I'm not big on conspiracies, but I think the Chiefs were lucky to come away with a win in that game.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just incompetence either. The league is involving themselves in how the game is called. Apparently, OT's are getting away with false starts and lining up too far back with/at the leagues blessing/direction.

Sounds like the CFL where the receivers are already two yards gone before the quarterback even gets the ball.

RupertKBD Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 This week couldn't have gone much better for my Bills, but they have a different kind of challenge coming up.... We have to travel to London to take on the Jags. Problem is, Jacksonville played there on Sunday and will be there waiting for Buffalo when they arrive. I'm confident in my guys, but these International games can be weird and the Jags won't have to deal with jet lag.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the destroyer of worlds Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Colts and Jags win to be top of the AFC south at 3 - 2. Colts over the Titans and Jags over the Bills. Meaning the Fish are leading the AFC east. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFaithfulcap Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Kittle is so great. Most games he just blocks, gets the odd big catch but he really could be the focal point for the offence. 3 TDs making it look easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
