Baltimore is better but Lamar can be gameplanned by a good DC.

I think the 49ers win the Superbowl still

Nah. After that game last night, I’m off the Niner train. Green Bay out played them. A bad spot and a shitty GB kicker was the difference between the Niners playing golf this winter. Purdy was awful against a bad defense.

I’m in Vegas right now and I’m hammering the Lions with the points.

Yeahhh niners didn't look so hot against Green Bay.

Why I said earlier the Ravens have a visible path to the Super Bowl.

Could feel the choke coming in some way but they kept overcoming it. The near picks from Allen, the terrible fake punt, the Allen fumble, and then finally the missed FG put a bow on it.

You have to wonder if Belichick has been waiting on Buffalo to play out

It would be funny but it'll get spun that Belichick just gravitated toward the next best QB available after it being said he can/could only win with Brady? Idk.

I honestly don't see any of the remaining QBs beating the Chiefs. My hope is that it's not that simple and that one of these defenses can get to Mahomes. Maybe I am underrating Baltimore's defense. I just don't believe in Lamar Jackson until I see it.

Baltimore is legit. San Fran, too. And Detroit could definitely outscore them in a shootout.

Josh Allen is still the best bad quarterback I've ever seen.

I don't think he's bad the way you mean it. Even tonight he hit some downfield throws that guys dropped. I would like to go back and see if he could have stepped into that late game throw to end zone where it came up short.

At same time his fumble easily could have sealed it for KC.

Buffalo never should have handed off to RB late in game though. If you wanna try to kill some clock your best option is just running Allen instead on designed keepers.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Bills are playing role of the Colts and the Chiefs are the Pats. Eventually Manning got over that hump.

Allen is bigger, stronger Favre. If his idiot coach didn't blow the 13 Second Game he'd already have his ring to match Favre. He's a great, super talented quarterback who simply can't help himself far too often, just like Favre.

 

[RoccoF14]

The Favre analogy is a good one. Allen is a QB you can win with. Buffalo was just decimated on the back end of their D this year. That was the difference….

When does he interview with Mayo

When does he interview with Mayo

He'll end up with Bill

He'll end up with Bill

Bill might be a bit nervous right now. The Falcons are interviewing all the big boys.

nah. Bill is good to go

Bill cursed him.....

..

Into going wherever he goes!

Reese, Fauria and Burton are such Patriots ballwashers. Let's see, beginning of the season, Bill O'Brien was the savior. Jones will have a career season.
Now, Jones couldn't start for Saugus HS and O'Brien is gone. But Mayo is a great choice and needs to pick his own people. How much does Kraft pay these clowns?

 

[Mione134]

nah. Bill is good to go

You under estimate his loyalty to his buddies

 

[GabeTravels]

Bills fans throwing shit at the KC players should spend the night in jail.

Dodge debris.

Just wait until the Patriots somehow bring Jones back and those three talk about Jones in favorable terms again

The more I think about it the more I think Mac will be here--for training camp anyway. You'd be trading him at an all time low. I could see them bringing him back for camp, pumping up how great he looks and then maybe seeing if someone needs a backup QB. I honestly wouldn't even care if he's starting while a rookie QB sits behind him. I don't need a rookie QB starting day 1 if he isn't ready. But this all depends on if the Pats go after a vet like Cousins. If they're going after Mayfield and Cousins then Mac is certainly on his way out.

Man I agree with you 9/10 but if they took a rookie qb, might as well just keep Mac as the starter in the meantime while the rookie sits. (If Mac can handle that mentally)

Cousins and Mayfield, meh. If Mac is just the meantime.

I just don't see the point in either of those guys.

Despite being very critical of the Pats at times, even F and M come of as shills for the Pats at times too. For example, that phony popularity survey they usually do in early fall that always puts that Pats at number one with a bullet is one of their worst segments. Goodness knows they talk about them enough also....
