    Yeah hard to sustain success as long as the 49ers have. Don't think they need a wholesale rebuild but the issue is the end of Purdy's rookie deal. Now they enter the big money QB era and have to make the compromises that every other team has.

    But for the Chiefs I think we would have won a SB during this window. Purdy has played well, but he'll have to justify a big deal playing with fewer or lesser weapons

      I'd rather they load up the offensive line and defence anyways

        Yeah I think that's where the need is. And Purdy is good enough to get production out of a lesser lineup.

          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.

                    Definitely a flush the toilet season. The 9ers will have to decide whether to pay Brock or not

                      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.

                            Cracking game between Broncos and Bengals. NFL throws out great entertainment week after week. Burrow is some player.

                                Not every game. But every week there are crackers.

                                That game was horrific

                                  Should never have gone into overtime. The game would've been won early doors if we could catch.

                                  Still, finals hopes are still alive.

                                      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.
