I dunno much about the game specifics but I'll be watching it

me too, pulling a rare 'working from home'. :mrt

good half time show. I reckon Shakira got up by a short half head.

evenly poised game. 49ers have the edge but can't get it all on the board. I feel like 49ers should win, but Kansas could win with a couple of good plays.

I'll have to watch it tonight. Bloody hell what an improvement by these 49ers.

TD!! Here come the Chiefs. I hope they win mainly because, like us, it's been 50 years and also to keep SF's 'flags' to 5 (i.e. under the Steelers)

Great game. Really thought SF was going to win after half time, but in the end it came down to QB V QB and Mahones is better than Garopolo. Mahones didn’t have any space for three quarters, but then found it with their hurry up offence. Always knew the AFC was stronger than the NFC

2 year deal $86m (AUD) with Tampa Bay. Bloody hell, how's that for a 2 year contract. Most still bewildered why he chose this 'middle of the ladder' team.

Could be a case of highest bidder wins.

I reckon he may have liked the look of the Bucs offence. They were capable of putting up a lot of points when Winston wasn’t constantly turning the ball over. Brady won’t do that.

Great to hear this morning that the NFL season starts tomorrow, going to be a weird season without those rabid fans. There will be no bubble, apparently there will only be 2 teams that are allowed to have fans, one of them being Kansas City who are going to have 16000 at their game, can't remember who the other team is. Really looking forward to see how the Buccaneers go with the Ground and Brady headlining their team, don't think they will do too much although I really don't know if their team is that strong or not. Interesting to see how the Patriots go with the addition of our Richmond man Cam Newton, they might be ok if he can stay out on the park.
Anyway go Saints

Seahawks off to a 3-0 start thanks to the magic of Rusell Wilson. Set some sort of record for touchdown passes. I don't get the game enough to know of the rest of the team is good enough to go all the way but they have been in playoffs for 6 or 7 years running.

He is off to a blinder and in MVP form at the moment.
The case against them is they're in the NFC West which is arguably the toughest division in the comp this year.
49ers are really banged up which helps but the Rams are no pushover and the Cardinals have improved a heap over the last year or so.
IF they can win the Division then there isn't too much else in the NFC to worry about, Packers & Saints will be up there again & potentially Tampa if Brady can stay fit.
It's the Chiefs to lose this year again, they were super impressive beating the Ravens last week who would be their main threat in the AFC.
Let's just hope we get a full season, already 1 game postponed for COVID this week.

Working from home not so rare these days down south. ....
