Three weeks ago, the football world (and a whole lot of posters on this board) had the 49ers walking to the Superbowl.

 

Maybe it's best for everyone to just watch the games and see what happens.

I thought they could easily make the Super Bowl, but always had doubts about them winning it with Purdy. I figured they might survive the NFC, but would lose when faced with an elite QB in the big game. It’s starting to look like even a Super Bowl appearance isn’t going to be as likely as many thought.

Not specifically talking about SF.  Every team can lose on any week.  Winning is not easy in the NFL.

I'm responding to your response. I didn't make the original statement. 


What a child. You did.

I asked a question as to whether they still remain a “crap” team if they beat us.
“crap team” was your exact statement, the only statement in our contact. 
 

Think your scarf might be a little too tight there Doc. 
 

Back to the Tardis with you, cheerio.

I’d usually be excited that Kansas City lost. But this year I don’t think the Bills have any real chance at the #1 seed so I don’t think this KC loss will really matter. Still glad they lost though! 

Kind of where I’m at.

 

If Miami beats them next week, Miami is going to have a good shot at the 1 seed

Yep, any given week is true. Super Bowl champs lose several games every season. I just mean that we’re getting to that time of year where contenders separate themselves from pretenders. We see a team like KC lose today, but it might be a one off, we’ll see the true extent of their issues in the next few weeks. Other teams we thought are contenders might fall off the map.

Next week will definitely be interesting. 2 high powered offenses against not so great defenses. Kc's defense has looked inconsistent as of late. If kc and buffalo wins next week though, it puts Miami and buffalo at 6-3

However, there's still a decent shot at Josh being an MVP candidate, so Mahomes adding 3 turnovers & 0 TD's to his stat line helps the cause 😅

you mean heroic Patrick Mahomes who selflessly played though a debilitating illness today.

So sweet to see the Chiefs lose. And sweeter still to a crap team.

 

Not too often you'll see a team beat the Chiefs with just 114 yards passing...


So if we lose next week do they still remain a “crap” team?

 

The bolded was the original statement that I did not make that you responded to. Your statement appeared a non-sequitur to me, because it was not evident how whether the Bills win or lose next week had any relevance as to whether the Broncos were a "crap" team. That was what my actual comment was about. Your further responses confirm what a fine fellow you are indeed.

You’re right. Given you responded immediately, I presumed it was you I quoted. Ignorance on my part. 
 

Back to the Tardis with me.

Late to the game here but  I dont think Purdy should of played today.  I also dont know why the NFL has a concussion spotter when a guy in recovery from one grabs his head after a hit and no one keeps him from trotting back out for the next play. 

 

That was an absolute classic smack the back your head on the ground at full speed concussion look as well.

The ref did talk to him for a second to check the response (I've been noticing that a lot more lately) but those guys are neither trained nor have time to really check a guys eyes when they're trying to run a game.

The concussion protocol is disgusting. It seems like it was only created to give the allusion that someone cares. I had more respect for the old days when they blatantly didn’t care, at least it wasn’t a lie. I’ve seen way too many players looking a bit out of it after going to the tent, and then we had the whole Tua situation last season.
