    In good news for the NFL, the Patriots are going down big time to the Dolphins.. 27-10..
    Not even Brady can bring them back..

    19 mins to go

    Listening to Trackside Radio on Friday and their regular American Sports guy said that it's likely they can lose so worth a bet as it's the only place Brady has a losing record or something. Heaps of people got on the Dolphins becasue of that and made a killing.

    49ers win again 25-23 over the Titans. Safe to say the 49ers won't be drafting a QB in 2018. A few blow out scores today as the contenders separate from the pretenders.

    The LA Rams smashed the Seattle Seahwaks and will win the NFC West while the Jags wrap up the AFC South. In the big game, the Pats did what they do best and beat the Steelers at the finish 27-24.

    Pats lucky against the Steelers.. They have the inside running for the #1 seed, they just need to win out to secure home field advantage..

    Jimmy G coming up with another W for the 9ers.. He's gonna get paid

    Blake Bortles lights up the Texans.. no Fournette

    I'm picking the Bills to drop out, and the Ravens to end up with the 5th seed
    Titans and Chargers to fight for that 6th seed

    Rodgers was a bit shit today..

    And then focus on OL/DB/WR/RB in free agency and the draft. If they do that right the 49ers will be back in the playoffs next season.

    @sneakdefreak The other area is edge pass rusher. It should hugely prioritised in that the elite in that position are hard to find. Pay a premium as its worth it (high draft pick or free agent $).

    @sneakdefreak He has everything you want in a franchise QB. Be really interesting to see how he goes vs Jags. The best defense in the league vs Jimmy G & an elite offense playcaller.

    Watched the extended highlights. The Jags defence kept making silly penalties when there was no need to. First time I've actually watched Blake Bortles play too and wow does he suck.

    The 49ers have done well at building their depth offensively but still missing that star WR (Garcon is on IR but he's really a WR2). WR Trent Taylor, TE George Kittle and RB Matt Breida will be good young pieces going forward though (along with QB Jimmy G). RB Carlos Hyde is a pending free agent and I think the 49ers will let him go. Better to roll with Breida and add another RB in free agency or the draft.

    @sneakdefreak Was a good learning for the Jags - sounds like the 49ers knew going in that the Jags were an emotional team and tried to get the Jags to overstep the mark - which they did. Jags need to take the lessons into the playoffs otherwise they'll be toast.

    I think the 49ers could use a really big target with a large catching radius (either WR or TE) to help them in the redzone and to offer something different from their other receivers to win jump balls etc - that's probably something they are missing at the moment.

    Will be interesting to see what the 49ers do in free agency as not only do they have a lot of cap space (even after paying Jimmy G) all of a sudden they are a hot destination to go to. I'd be happy to see Hyde come back if he's not chasing a huge deal - if he's chasing the $ then best to let him go.

    @kiwimurph Agree re: the big target. Sammy Watkins would be a smart choice as he's not going to stay with the Rams where Woods and Kupp are WR1 and WR2. He's also a big redzone target which Garcon and Goodwin are not (nor are they WR1 calibre).
    Jags WR Allen Robinson would be another choice - he's 6'3 and can post big numbers when he has a competent QB (and when he's not injured).
    Other options are Green Bay WR Davante Adams and Miami WR Javris Landry but I think both will stay where they are.

    I would like to see the 49ers target in free agency:
    WR: Sammy Watkins or Allen Robinson
    RB: Jeremy Hill or Rex Burkhead (to share duties with Matt Breida)
    TE: Tyler Eifert (but I'm fine with Kittle and Celek)

    I'm not going to pretend that I know who the best OL and DB options are for the team.

    Everyone thinks its so Harrison can give them intel on the Steelers, who the Pats will probably bump into on the road to the Superbowl. Problem is, according to one of the Steelers rookies, Harrison wasn't really turning up to practice and video sessions so it's unlikely he knows what is going on.
