The general rule of thumb GMs use is to devalue picks by 1 round for each further year out. So our 2027 1st rounder is only equivalent to next years 2nd round pick. A 2028 1st round pick would be worth a 3rd round pick in 2026, etc, etc.

Not even close. If our 2 best offensive players don't turn the ball over 3 times we probably win. It's going to take a lot to dethrone 13 seconds.

This is crazy

Gipson just got his butt saved, because that was dumb.

He's running like he's playing flag football at a family picnic.

The head coach and GM are insular and really don't like leaving their comfort zone. We've all seen this with their penchant for known quantities aka the Carolina player pipeline, and that school of though applies to coaches as well. Promote from within - it's the safe route, but sometimes you need to make a bold move. "Draft, develop, and re-sign" sounds like a great strategy, it really does. But what happens if you draft too many mediocre players that don't develop?

Yes, and I was one of the people loudly criticizing Beane. But he isn't going anywhere anytime soon, regardless of any perceived "heat."

You've lost your mind, lol. How is the public's patience wearing thin? By selling out an entire stadium of PSL's for the next 30 years? Yeah, they are really teetering on the brink of a riot. No, this is the same tantrum that happens after every loss. Fred from Tonawanda calling WGR for his Monday morning meltdown isn't going to cost Beane his job. He's under contract through the 2027 season and isn't going anywhere.

Rodgers looks shot. I can't see him making it through this season, he looks so slow.

I know losses to division rivals are painful, but Beane is not going anywhere guys.

It's a really good secret if they are.

Bernard is getting abused out there and Milano is shot. Can't really get away from that Bernand contract until 2027. LB is a major need next year that you can add to the list.

It's funny I was banging the table for Lou 10 years ago. How time flies. He's 83 and hasn't spoken on his future plans yet so... probably looking like retirement.

There were signs.

The comments mocking this game are not hyperbole. What the hell am I watching?

Well that was something.

Literally dodging a bullet? Perhaps.

Serious answer - the best answer will come from the sportsbooks, entities that remove all emotion from their claims and back them up with real money (don't just use 1 book, try to get a consensus amongst all the major ones). And the consensus is that right now as of Tuesday 11/4/25 the Chiefs and Bills are both the favorites to win it all. In the 2nd tier and not far behind would be the Eagles, Lions, Packers, and Rams not necessarily in that order. Juuuust outside that 2nd tier resides the Colts, so I guess you could say the experts believe the Colts are for real (somewhat). Next would be the Broncos, they range from +1500 to +1800. That means they don't really have a chance unless some extraordinary events happen. Most interesting would be the Patriots. There's a lot of people here that are still mentally scarred from that franchise, but you'll be happy to know they are about +2500 to +2800. That essentially means the books are calling them complete pretenders with almost no shot to win it all this year (and if you think you know better, you can pay off those PSL's with one small wager). Chargers are even farther behind the Pats. Lot of season left.

Yeah, ok buddy. You shot up before your free agent year and f**ked us. There's an out in your contract after 2026 when we can dump your ass but nobody on the roster is getting younger right now when we need you. But don't worry people, if we lose in the playoffs "all defeat is psychological"

ugh that looked bad

Mahomes is definitely spending time in the ice bath. He took a lot of hits.

He really wasn't forced to make any superhuman plays, which is a good thing.

Very good possibility. There's an out in his contract after 2026 but as of now this signing was a complete disaster.
