So with Eli benched for Jones (some say Eli will be trade bait for a team with QB needs *wink, wink, Jags*), does Jones get some of the Giants passing attack going?
Asking for a friend that's been holding Tate and Shepherd for a while...

That was a nice 40 yard +TD effort from Tate (for those who had the balls to take him off the bench [not me]).

There is that win and a dominating won to show the 49ers are legit.

Absolutely. Id probably only have Saints ahead of them in the NFC currently. Contender.

Tomorrows Lions/Packers game will be big for the division.

Just popped in to call this guy a non faithful idiot. We’re fucking legit, to do that with our 4 and 5 tackles, our best corner and the only relevant FB in the league out. 
Look out NFC

Feels good supporting a winning team. Been a long time in any sport for me

Pot shots already fired at the Chiefs, it's interesting to say the least.

Tell you what, Kyler Murray is improving each game. His first hit out was absolutely terrible but watching the condensed version, he played really well this week. Smart throws, good execution.

If Travis Frederick doesnt win comeback player of the year, it's biased against OLine. They may have lost the last few, but hes a deadset stud in the middle of that team.

Interesting move from the Rams to get Ramsey. Certainly improves their team, but doesn't really address the core issues they have right now. More importantly though, at what cost does this move come at? Seems like a bit of a strange one to me....

while every-one is talking about the Ramsey trade, lost in among the Rams moves is the confirmation that Eric De Costa is pretty good at the whole GM thing, just finessed the Rams for a quality corner at the cost of a line-backer who wasn't playing and the 5th rounder he stole from the Vikings for Vedvik, Ramsey may be worth the high price the Rams payed for him, but the Ravens just got crazy value from them.

The core issue Rams have is QB regression and you can't fix that mid season - and Id argue its not even that much of a problem, given Goff is on a cheap contract for the next 6 years yet. Hes probably performing at a level that his pay represents tbh. They just went and got the top CB in the league, in a passing league. Its a great move. Pricey, but a great move.

Yes, great move by Ravens. I wonder if they were in the conversation for Ramsey aswell and what they were offering?

yeh we definitely were, our rumored offer was a first, second + Hurst, that came out a while ago, around the same time as the reports that Jax weren't budging for any less than 2 firsts.

Should have thrown in Nick Boyle for free.

Core issues are offensive line and safeties and the regression of Gurley obviously - I think his career is basically done! Goff hasn't regressed over night, its whats around him thats changed.

Its a good move in that it obviously makes them better this year, do but they are absolutely over the coals for next year. IMO they are clutching at straws for this season. Personally I think they got fleeced.

I think Ramsey is worth the two mid round firsts but not for the rams. They’re cap is already pretty shot and now they’re going to get even less cap help via drafting. They’re also in a division that’s run first except for the cards who they’d beat without him

Its the fact that he'll have them over the coals for next season - that's what'll really hurt them.

Flacco getting sacked multiple times and fumbling for a Defensive TD. Mahomes off for the game with a knee injury. McManus missing his 45yd field goal. Moore in for Mahomes. Eventful game so far.

U could see them popping his knee cap back in on the live coverage. My guess at best he gets held out for a few weeks...

Oh my goodness I won't be at the bottom of the L1 ladder

7-0 in L3 - killing it!

Came away with what I call a lucky win against Deuces who hasn't touched his team all year. Shows how strong they are  with AB still in the flex. With Hill & Hopkins starting WRs doing work he has already caused some upsets. The Pats needed 16 points and romped home with 25 points Pats are like having an extra RB 1. They are Top 15 overall points scorer. But after an easy run so far.

I am keen to try and upgrade or shift off Juju + an RB for a WR.
