Baltimore KC 49ers.

One of those 3.

Everytime we think a team is dead or out of it, they bounce back.

49'ers are the team to beat at this point-they are firing on all cylinders.

Both the Eagles and Chiefs look like two very tired teams.

Yes, but they're working on it. Add 1 more team in each conference, and there you go, half.

But your point about mediocrity is 100% spot on. This is the worst year, in regards to quality of games, I can ever recall.

The 49ers are pretty dominant

Purdy had a midseason slump but the guy is an inexperienced 7th round pick. It wasn’t going to be smooth sailing every week

I see them as dominant until someone proves me wrong

2019 we stood no chance of beating the 49'ers due to that dominant defense.

This year more than most, it just seems like the regular season doesn't matter.

Wake me up when the playoffs start.

This is franchise can win 10 games a season with its eyes closed. I mean you have to go to 2014 to find our last no 10 win season. And oddly adding the extra game to the schedule and now expanding the number of playoff teams, ten wins gets you in.

Don't get me wrong, I love watching this team every week, but its starting to feel like 17 weeks of preseason. We are working on stuff, developing players, dealing with some injuries. The real football begins in January.

I sure hope not.

But I doubt they will try that any time soon. Heck, it took them forever to expand to more teams (mids 70s until mid 90s). And they talk as though they are perfectly fine with 32 for the foreseeable future.

And I really hated seeing them go to 7 playoff teams, especially since now only the #1 seed gets a bye. But the playoffs expansion was decades in the making.

KC or SF. I think Purdy is extremely overrated, but he's better than Janeane Garoppolo ever was and has a tremendous team around him.

Lamar Jackson's brain will limit how far the Ravens go, which likely means one and done for them.

The Cowboys? Please.

But is Purdy really all that?

Steelers 21st
Rams 20th
Giants 26th
Cards 29th
Cowboys 9th
Browns 2nd
Vikings 10th
Bengals 31st
Jax 28th
TB 25th
Seattle 23rd
Eagles 22nd
Seattle 23rd
Cards 29th

They got bitchslapped by the Browns. Should be interesting to see how they do against the Ravens

And that was 100 percent correct. No one thought Jimmy G would pee down his leg ...

I prefer to view that as the Chiefs took that game rather than the 9ers let it slip away. I mean Jet Chip Wasp, Chris Jones dominating at the end and tipping passes, Damien's late rushing TD to seal it. Those things had nothing to do with Jimmy G pissing down his leg, as you claim.

No one will know about Purdy until it gets to maximum sphincter time in the playoffs. If he has the Joe Montana gene, he'll be great. If not he'll be just another QB.

Those predictions may have made sense at the time, but they weren't correct. They were 100% incorrect.

Jimmy G was always the glaring weak link on that team.

Normally pro leagues take this and introduce offense friendly rules in the offseason. Wonder if that’ll be the case here. I agree that more teams in contention is good for $ even if it’s uglier to watch. I also feel like Vegas must be making bank on this too because ugly football is harder to predict.

Oddly, a few of the things they've focused on in recent years have hurt offenses.... calling illegal man downfield when a lineman is a step forward, and the 10+ offensive offsides called this year compared to like 2 last year, the weird Jawaan Taylor thing.... shit that has very little to no impact to games.

They are dominant, but I wouldn't pick them over Philly in a rematch.
