I doubt I'm going to watch this Thursday's game.  The 49r's are going to blow out the Hawks in dominating fashion.  They're going to expose just how bad the Hawks are.

If I may ask, why do you feel this way? If I’m not mistaken they are both suffering from a rash of injuries. Not to mention they both beat the Patriots and both lost to the Giants🤔 And trust me I feel your pain as I’m a lifelong Chicago Bears fan that poor @Mike L has had to talk off the ledge more than once on this site😂

Thanks to you and my local sports radio stations I am definitely coming around this season 👊🏻😋

SF has not played the Giants. In fact, they don’t play each other this season.

Hmmm 🤔 You sir are correct 😬I blame…..oh heck I can’t come up with anything on this one 🤪

[Glenn]

Patriots are 1-4.  The Hawks barely beat them 23-20 early in the season when they were healthy.  SF beat them 30-13 two weeks ago, injuries and all.

And that only win was in week 1 at Cincy. The Bengals are easily the biggest disappointment in the league thus far.

It's hard to think that the Patriots are the worst team in the NFL, possibly so.

Just lost at home to an injury riddled Dolphins.

Cleveland vs New England would be a classic pillow fight 😅

If they had a placeholder they would’ve beaten the ravens, burrow has been on fire . 

[gim]

I agree.  Their defense is what the issue is.  Even the lowly Panthers put up massive points on them.

Lions are killing the Cowboys! 
 

Hutchinson goes down with a nasty leg injury.

[gim]

The Lions visit the Vikings next week. That will be a real challenge.

 

They said at halftime that the entire NFC North has at least 4 wins through 6 weeks, which has never happened in any division through 6 weeks, ever.

[Bird]

That was a savage beating.....at Dallas 😳.

I realize it's not all Dak's fault but he's not playing like a 60 million dollar man.

Lions look legit on both sides of the ball.

I always knew Derrick Henry was a great RB with the Titans, but oh my, he’s really banging it with the Ravens. Trying to determine if Henry is taking the handoff or Lamar is keeping it is a crapshoot. And even if you guess right, you still may pay a price. 
 

In the 4th quarter, he’s a hammer.

Check out the full back that he follows too, Patrick Riccard.  Dude is built like a tree stump.  Imagine being a defender and having a 280 pound full back coming at you followed by a 250 pound running back.  That's 530 pounds of humanity running towards you, and your job is to stop them.  Yikes.

[BrianMDTX]

Ricard is 300 lbs. Having Henry carrying behind Ricard is like a bulldozer following a tank.

Most linebackers are not even that big.  Imagine being a safety with that coming at you.  Better go low.  Like shoelace tackle low.

Go too low and hit one of their thighs and you may get concussed. 
 

Better to yell “Mommy!” and turn tail and run! 🤣

[Bird]

The addition of Henry is why I think Baltimore is the most dangerous team in the league.

Will they get past Mahomes and the KC Chiefs ?......idk

[Glenn]

Yet another blowout TNF game.  I feel bad for Al Michaels.

[gim]

Is anyone else dumbfounded as to why Tomlin is starting Russell Wilson over Justin Fields against the Jets?

 

Fields has compiled a 4-2 record, accounted for 10 touchdowns, and only committed 2 turnovers.

 

I hope Wilson's debut is a complete flop.  Tomlin will have some serious explaining to do.

[Mike L]

@gimruis
Because if Justin plays 51% of the snaps Pitt owes the Bears a 4th round pick and he’s already 6 games in. 
 

If not it’s a 6th

 

The pick is more important to him

@Mike L I guess there's always the business side of the sport.  I was not aware of that.

 

Still, isn't winning games more important than a slightly higher/lower draft pick?  I would certainly like to think so.

You would think,

but it’s obviously not to him.

Tomlin better hope Wilson wins this game as was pointed out on our local sports radio station otherwise he could lose control of the team because of this decision.
