I really haven't been paying any attention.

Do people actually enjoy watching the Patriots? Their games are SO ****ing boring. The most fun to come out of one of their borefests is when they happen to lose. That's it.

Somewhere, NFL TV execs still think there are people in So-Cal that give a **** about the chargers........

Sigh.

As a kid, I remember that there were high school and college basketball games where one team completely outclassed another. Before there was a shot clock, the weaker team would just slow down the game to nothingness, holding the ball and passing it when it was safe, and never shooting. Their goal was to keep the score as low as possible in the hopes that they'd occasionally get a lucky shot to win it. The shot clock was implemented because those games were so boring that fans revolted.

That's the New England Patriots these days, except at the end of the game the refs will call a bogus foul to send them to the free throw line for the game winning free throws.

I get the Donks/Chargers? **** you CBS!

Good. For the early game, we get to watch the 49ers expose the team with an extra running back but no quarterback

Hoping Bosa knocks him out.

Not on this end, I get served up a steaming pile of Packers/Giants. :shake: I'm going to be on a stream quest for both games.
