    @mariner4life SF are ravaged by injuries, and Jimmy G just got benched. If he can't turn it around SF will be back on the hunt for a QB. Maybe they should try to land Cam Newton if he chooses to leave NE at season's end

    Newton's season is falling apart. Patriots don't have too many weapons for him to throw to.

    And Jimmy is getting stronger

    How things change. Jimmy looked awful vs Seahawks - is now re-injured and there's talk Jimmy could have played his last game as a 49er. With Kittle also injured the season is effectively over for the 49ers - time to rebuild for 2021.

      Jimmy is paid too much money to only be a game manager. Their best chance for prolonged success is to draft a great QB (Seattle, KC) so that they can save money to spend on other squad players. How far down the standings are they? Might be time to tank and try to enter the Lawrence sweepstakes

        @canefan Yep. They already have too many wins (4) to be in the Lawrence sweepstakes but there are a number of exciting QBs coming out this draft so yes I think they are better off tanking from now on.

          It's so hard to read QBs in the NFL. Goff and Jimmy G both played in the Superbowl in the last two years, and at times looked the winner. Nick Foles actually won. And yet all three look pretty horrible this year, while rookies like Herbert and Burrow seem much more assured with far worse teams.

              Both were system QBs beaten by superior QBs. Jimmy is not required to do much in that offence, however when he is called upon to throw far down the field he is often found wanting. Imagine what a QB like Rogers could do with that O line. Get a top prospect if available and grab someone in like Fitzpatrick to run the cutter while the new kid is eased in

                @canefan bingo. McVay and Shanahan are elite playcallers that make Goff and Jimmy look better than they are.

                  SNF is a big game, Saints v Tampa

                  Tampa have had 3 possessions, 9 plays, 18 total yards. NO have more than 140 and a TD already.

                            that explains the very weird box score of 26 completions for only 216 yards.

                                Tough season to predict from here, so many close divisions

                                Things we know:
                                The NFC East is dogshit.
                                The Steelers will win their Division

                                Things that are very likely
                                The Chiefs will win theirs
                                The Patriots won't make the post season.

                                I feel like pretty much everything else is up for grabs

                                        also, the two interceptions he threw yesterday were abysmal. No receiver anywhere near, and went straight to the Rams defenders.

                                          Denver play the Saints with Lindsay out with a bad knee, and a bunch of guys tipped out for COVID, including the QB and the backup QB

                                          And predictably get hosed

                                          You reckon Tampa are happy with their QB trade?
