    I'm not following closely at this stage but good to see that my Bengals haven't crashed and burned after last year

      if you had asked preseason who would be the two strongest divisions, most would have said the two Wests.

      if you had said that after 13 games both of the East conferences would have all four teams with winning records you would have been laughed out of the building.

      I'm really proud of the Broncos for scoring 28 points. Pity it was on the one week the defence got opened up.

        A breakout performance by 49ers rookie QB Brock Purdy. Time will tell if he can keep it going but gee he was impressive - even better than last week.

        The way the offence is structured and with Shanahan calling the plays it is tailor made for a QB who is either not elite or young. Having said that he made some very nice plays that were above what I'd expect from Jimmy. It's not time to make predictions after one start. But the kid seems to have time and a good temperament

          The Cardinals are woeful. Just terrible. What a ridiculous fumble from Hopkins. Carrying the same ball with one hand and losing it in a tackle. Not even stripped, just jolted out from contact.

          But don't worry the HC and GM were extended this year so they are under contract until 2027.

          Icing on the cake? Kyler Murray probably did an ACL which would mean that he's questionable to start next season.

            non contact injuries are always horrific. Sad for KM - he's been good fun to watch

              The decision to sign Kyler Murray to a mega contract earlier this year doesn't look great - they are stuck with him for at least the next 2 seasons after this one.

                @mariner4life get on my Eagles. Might have to break out my Randall Cunningham jersey, it could be our year.

                Did anyone see former Saints man Arryn Siposs play? Pretty sweet one hand pick up and run. Then he got smashed. Gave a few fans a mouthful too.

                  Signing you QB to a huge contract despite obvious and already exploited flaws always goes bad.

                  Teams have fucked up thr QB market and they are now trapped.

                        Agree. Tom Brady has shown you can find decent QBs deep in the draft. Rodgers was passed over a lot too and I'm sure there are lots more I could name. There are lots of high drafted QBs who don't stay long in the league

                          one fo the problems of course is high drafted QB often wind up in dumpster fire organisations. Trevor Lawrence, for instance, or even RG3

                            49ers win the NFC West and clinch a home playoff game.

                            Rookie QB Brock Purdy wins again - he clearly wasn't 100% healthy and gutted it out. What a few weeks for him.

                              Colts hanging 33 on the Vikings in the first half. 33-0 at halftime. The worst 10-1 team we've ever seen? Shipping 50 last time around with the Cowboys, and now this? Insane.

                                  The Vikings are the most absurd team I think I've ever seen.

                                  They're 10-0 in one score games. Over the long run teams are generally a coin flip in one score games because this league is so competitive.

                                  It's not even like they're a class above the league with a bunch of statement 2, 3 and 4 score wins. They only have one win by more than a score.

                                  They're a total mirage, but the only question is when do they turn back into a pumpkin. Looking at the wild card contenders I think they'll probably get through and then get blown up in the divisional round.

                                  (To be fair they're better than a pumpkin and are probably deserving of a division win, they're just not as good as their record suggests)

                                    Burrow came out on top of Brady in the Bengals v Buccs game despite Brady throwing more yards. Game of two halves on the scoreboard with Bengals 31-6 in the final two quarters.

                                    Good win for the Bengals as that completes a 6 game W streak and has them clear in AFC North as the Ravens slipped up this weekend.

                                      Eagles, 49ers, Bills and Bengals all on 5+ streaks.

                                        Quite interesting the different profile of QBs in the NFC compared to AFC.

                                          Not even 2 seasons into his career and it looks like Jets QB Zach Wilson is a bust.

                                          Jets should try and trade him in the offseason. He's a lost cause in New York.
