49ers are the most stacked and will go all the way.

I just looked at their depth chart and it does not look particularly impressive. I'm not saying you are wrong just that it doesn't look, on paper, like you are for sure right.

49ers almost went to the Super Bowl last year. Defense wins championships they say and 49ers have that.

I think they made a good move by keeping Garoppolo. Not sure what they're paying him, but it's a good insurance policy against Lance. The guy somehow just wins football games.

But you must admit, it's well deserved.
Fortunately you can say, you don't live in Houston! That's worth a lot, IMO.

Yes on both accounts. I live in the only township in Texas.
So I guess you can't take credit for the Astros then.

Well they have Houston about right this time. Maybe a couple of slots to high but pretty close. Hope Dallas does well this year. I guess TB is only ranked number 4 since Brady can't do as well without Gronk and he's to busy selling shoes and sandwiches.

49ers need a QB . Trey Lance is not it . Jimmy G is good game manager . They could win but I don’t think so. There are several good teams in the AFC this year . Don’t count the Bungles out , Buffalo , Kansas City ,

I could probably come up with arguments for 10-12 teams this year. Hopefully it’ll be a bunch of good games, few serious injuries, and some decent officiating. AFC west is going to be a lot of fun.

Just saw the kickoff of the 2022 season in LA... Just occurred to me that a lot of power must be getting sucked up in that stadium right now even with their innovated/green designs. Just the huge JumboTron must me sucking up a ton of juice. Isn't this (5 to 8pm local time) their peak electricity usage time. (Rhetorical)

Maybe those 70,000+ in SoFi stadium are, as a whole, consuming less energy than if they were all at home. Dunno for sure.

If an outage occurs, they’ll just power the stadium from the EV’s in the parking lots.
Lots of turnovers so far.

I'm sure the 70k sports fans turned off everything at home before "walking" to the stadium in the ~100 degree heat there today.
But seriously, makes me wonder how many (if any) EV charging stations are available at SoFi for all the EV's that must be there...
Yep, hard to keep track of who has the ball.

The Bills certainly made a statement tonight, on both sides of the ball.
On the other hand, while the Rams looked bad, I think it would be too early to right them off just yet. But they need more of their offense to step up.

Yep they seemed to be pretty Jolly while Stomping all over the RAMS. Which is ok with me. For a while it seemed like nobody wanted the ball with all the turn turnovers.

Josh looked really good but he will have a short career if he doesn't play smarter and learn to hit the ground instead of trying to run through the defense when he runs with the ball. He's way too valuable a player to be risking injury doing that, there's a reason the average career length for a running back in the NFL is just a hair over 3 years.

He has a base salary of about 6 million. Then he has a bunch of varied incentives depending on how much he plays and how he does.
While it’s true he’s getting quite a nice salary as a backup, Trey’s salary is not huge, and the total for both is what you’d probably pay for both. It’s just in this case, the money is more evenly divided.
From what I can tell, both are class acts and I’m glad it worked out.
