Hate to say it but SF is the best team in the NFC right now. Their defense is top, and with McCaffrey their offense is damn good.

I think that should be "in the grasp" on Mahomes.

Maybe they dontl; actually care about player safety?

First game the Ravens did not have a double-digit scoring lead this season.
BAL has stumbled and bumbled their way to a 7-4 record, while CIN has bounced back from a 0-2 start and gone 7-2 to be tied for the AFC North lead.
HOWEVER - the Bengals' schedule to complete their regular season----
Chiefs
@ Browns (Deshaun Watson back)
@ Buccaneers
@ Patriots
Bills
Ravens

That's more better

WWWWHHHHAAAAAHHHHHH!

That is not the rules.
You do not get credit with a toe or foot tap with the same foot. I know what you are saying but that is not the rules.
Rotate his foot 180° for a toe tap then it is a TD.

Or a broken ankle

Russell Wilson got paid but did not deliver. All is not well in Denver. I expect the "NEW" HC to get fired before the season is over. They are stuck with Wilson.
3-8 (Ouch!)

2 steps would be the same thing, I would imagine. If you're going to use semantics, 2 toe taps aren't 2 feet either. I really can't see any reason the same foot coming down twice wouldn't be equal to 2 feet.

I'm not claiming a double toe tap does it. Look at the Jags TD we just watched. The receiver caught the ball, did a toe tap, lifted it off the turf and then went to the ground with the same foot where his foot touched and then rolled over to get the ankle/shin down. If a double tap was all that was needed, there wouldn't have been any discussion by the TV crew about having a shin down. As soon as the foot touched down the second time before rolling over, it's a catch no matter what. But because "both feet" are required and he didn't get his second foot down, you turn to the "OR" part of the rule that states any body part = both feet except a hand. So then you look for the ankle/shin down in bounds. Even without the first toe tap you look for the ankle/shin in the absence of "both feet." It's clear to me it has to be left and right foot but there's the "or" to use other body parts as a sub.

the chiefs absolutely destroyed them on prime time, no way they are 1st, vikes, cowboys and eagles ahead. and the seahawks always seem to beat the 49ers

 

[Mannix]

Is it only my imagination, or does it seem like the Chiefs play about 13 regular season games at home every year???

You think the Vikes are better than SF? Nope. And the Seahawks used to beat the Niners with formerly good Russell Wilson. Niners already have a game in hand against Geno's Seahawks.

I don’t know what to make of it. Maybe it means nothing, but I find it interesting that the Giants and Commanders are the only two teams in the entire NFL that have winning records (7-4, 7-5) with negative point differentials (-7, -3). And The Jaguars are the only team with a losing record (4-7) with a positive point differential (+12). Weird to see that this far into the season, I think.

He must feel like he's back at West Virginia in 2010 or whatever it was.

Was Florida St, no?

Some of these recovers are wide open/ uncovered. Lots of blown coverages today.

Agreed. I really don’t want to face them in the playoffs. I’m hoping someone else can knock them out but… we may be out of luck.

Bucs suck but they scare me too.

Bucs will be our first round game. Brady scares me too. But Micah.

Nah he threw it to Stedman Baily and Tavon Austin at West Virginia.

When they are on TV they are home.

Rams went from Super Bowl to Super Old.
