    Trey Lance is going to be out for a long time with what looked like a broken ankle.

    Justifies the 49ers decision to keep Jimmy G who looks his normal self following offseason surgery.

          the season needs to sober up

          actually if you are a Denver fan it's very fucking sobering. We cannot score in a brothel with a fist full of hundreds

            Browns and Ravens competing to see who has the biggest choke. Last a team came back from a 13 point deficit was in 2001. First Jets win in September since 2018.

            Ravens gave up so many points but the Browns had:
            Kareem Hunt run out of bounds just before the two minute warning (Chubb scored on the next play so not a huge difference maker)
            Chubb scoring the TD when taking a knee would have allowed the browns to wind down the clock then kick a field goal (kind of unusual to do that but media love calling that stuff out)
            Missed PAT to keep the lead at 13
            Conceded a successful onside kick
            Threw a pick when driving to get into field goal range

              lol and now the Raiders give up 23 2nd half points, while scoring 3, to lose in overtime.

              At least Denver got home on the back of 1 good drive.

                    the drums are beating in Denver for an absolutely unheard of coach firing. No one gets fired inside the season of their first year.

                    But i have seen Hackett's first 2 weeks now described as the WORST career start ever. And it's hard to disagree.

                    The play calling. The decision making. the complete lack of preparedness. The game management. there is nothing there. And that's 100% on the HC. He's in real trouble already.

                        @mariner4life The Broncos schedule gets really brutal at the end of the season - in the final 5 weeks they play the Chiefs (twice) as well as Chargers and Rams.

                            I watched the Trey Lance injury. The kid has to realise he shouldn't run into the line like a running back

                              Just caught up on this game. Was pretty entertaining and enjoyed the finish. A career night for Tua. I think I heard he matched Super Dan for throwing 6 TDs. Not bad for a young fella.

                                I'd like to see Buffalo win it all while most of the players of their great 90s teams are still alive to celebrate it. They still have to go through KC but they are a juggernaut right now.

                                Of course they are trumped if this story ends at the SB

                                      @sparky this is peak entertainment.

                                      Has been interesting going from watching Rugby to turning on the league - a simpler, more structured game, but damned if the presentation and accessibility isn't massively higher. NFL takes it to another level.

                                      The stats are just nuts; they had one on a team that hasn't lost at home to a QB with 'O' in their name, and the length of the streak. Like WTAF. Who's getting paid to find this shit out.

                                        found it! Streak now broken, stood at 20.

                                        Since the start of the 2021 calendar year, the Dolphins are 0-9 when the opposing starting quarterback doesn't have an "o" in his last name. Conversely, they've won 11 straight against quarterbacks whose last name includes an "o." This has held true for 20 STRAIGHT GAMES. The last time it didn't happen was Week 16 of the 2020 season, when Ryan Fitzpatrick's miraculous completion helped lift the Dolphins over the Raiders and signal-caller Derek Carr.

                                          @nzzp haha reminds me of the commentator from the baseball movie Little Big League

                                          An interesting side note; that’s the 14th one-run game for the Tigers already this season. Tops for any team north of the Mason-Dixon Line, whose home games are not played in a dome.
