        @Dice Pretty sweet move, shame he couldn't make a break up field, or kick it away union style!

            @Dice I reckon he ran the wrong way, there was a bit of a hole up the middle of the field

              Some interesting cuts by teams before the start of the season:

              Victor Cruz cut by Chicago, Brock Osweiler cut by Browns, TJ Ward cut by Broncos to name a few. 49ers cut Matt Barkley and choose to go with CJ Beathard as backup QB (he's been good in preseason).

                Fantasy draft done (I actually did alright) and some big news that will make M4L cream his knickers:

                Broncos, Brock Osweiler agree to terms on one-year deal.

                  Slightly surprised that the Pats cut Austin Carr and Brandon Bolden.
                  But then I saw the Pats make a trade with the Colts. Pick up WR Dorsett for QB Jacoby. I guess they saw more value in Dorsett than Carr, who I thought looked good in preseason.
                  I guess Bolden is just a casualty given the plethora of RBs that the Pats now have.

                    @Sneakdefreak Definitely a youth movement in San Francisco - they cut WR Kerley who was their most productive receiver last year and they signed to a 3 year deal in the offseason. They went with 3 rookie wide receivers - two of whom were undrafted. 55% new players for the 49ers vs a year ago.

                      @KiwiMurph Kerley lost out to Victor Bolden who was pretty amazing on the kick returns.

                        @Sneakdefreak and to Trent Taylor who is pretty much a carbon copy of Kerley.

                          So the first half is up in the season opener. Pats leading the Chiefs, 17 - 14.

                          I'm liking the look of Gillislie in this Pats offense. Also on the other side, rookie RB, Kareem Hunt, has looked good outside of the fumble in his first carry. Got both of them in most of my fantasy teams 🙂

                            Turning into some game. KC up 28 - 27 early in the 4th.

                            Alex Smith is having a career night. 23/28, 312 yards, 4 TDs.

                              KC in again with a TD to Hunt. He's had a helluva debut.

                              KC lead 35 - 27 with 5 to go.

                                I don't want to jinx them but NE's touted unbeaten season (albeit not from them, some pundits) is about to end in game 1???

                                  Floodgates now. KC in with another rushing TD. They're now up, 42 - 27.

                                    Brady has had a really rough night. He's only completed 44% of his passes and has no TDs.

                                    KC have taken away the short pass and are asking him to beat them deep. It has worked a treat.

                                    Gronk has been very quiet. Only has 2 catches.

                                        Everyone will now shit on the Pats and the Pats will reply a 12-game win streak.

                                        Who's everyone picking for the Superbowl?

                                        I'm going with the popular pick of Packers/Pats. Maybe Steelers or Raiders in the AFC but the NFC is looking pretty weak (apart from Green Bay).

                                          I've got the Seahawks and Patriots in the Super Bowl.

                                          My dark horse to make the Super Bowl are the Vikings.
