Always looked unlikely 49ers would win, with Garoppolo, Kite, Aiyuk and Trent Williams out, amongst others

Just absolutely decimated by injuries this season. What a difference a year makes really, as last November I was thrilled by our win over the Packers. Have a few Green Bay-supporting mates from my time studying in Michigan, and they're adamant they're going to win the whole thing this year. Which makes my Lions-supporting mates fume!

Packers looking good though.

Niners are riddled with injuries as well. Might as well put a link through the season.

It's a shame mate. I thought we had won the whole bloody thing in February. Would have done if it wasn't for a Villa-esque capitulation. And Mahomes being so damn good.

Yeah, Mahomes and the Chiefs look like the team to beat.

Steelers could beat them though.

Seahawks and Packers look the best in the NFC.

Bears at Titans the live game over here, was hoping to switch to it later if/when watching Villa became too painful, but from what I've seen so farx as a Bears fan, this game will not be any less painful than the Villa one.

Good teams find ways to win when they don’t play well.  Looking at you, Pittsburgh!

Bears were bad. Really, really fucking bad. Despite the usual fourth quarter improvement. Has to be a win, and a massively improved performance, against the Vikes or the playoffs have gone after a 5 and 1 start.

We think that VAR is bad, but awarding that interception to the Ravens was a bizarre one.

If that had been a wide receiver, no way would the catch have been awarded

Have we actually been ahead first and won a match? We seem to be trying to specialise in fourth quarter comebacks and that is a bad tactic?

How many of the 4th Qtr comebacks were after binning Trubisky and bringing on Foles? Can't do that now Foles is starting, and unfortunately he's not looking anywhere near the Superbowl-winning Foles since he became starter.

We lead the Giants all game and won. Didn't score a point in the 2nd Half.

Our OLine is dreadful, which stops our non existent running game. So we can't protect the QB, but have to throw because we can't run the ball.

Your boys are looking a bit good aren't they! Could quite easily win every game.

A two game winning streak sees the New York Football Giants now in second place in the NFC East at ......3-7  :o

Raiders continue to improve. Early loss to the Pats now looking like a poor result. However, back then, we didn't really know that the Pats were no longer really the Pats
