Yeah, I don’t think we lost anything there in that exchange.

I think Steelers are going to stink for a while. Pickett has an arm. Is it NFL caliber?

Arm seems fine, decision making is suspect and their offensive coordinator Canada is a turd.

Pickett was a one year wonder in college with a superstar WR and all-senior OL. He’s a day two pick that went first rd because the Steelers were desperate. He’s nothing more than (coincidentally) a Mitch Trubisky type QB from his Chicago days.

Thank You Paul!
Everything is early and rookies are tricky
FWIW, Seattle got absolutely killed for taking Walker.
How could they not take a QB there, that is their need. They are fine at RB, etc.
It was very clear that Carson's career was done - we've seen this many times in Seattle - sucks, but it happens
Then Walker gets hurt in camp and more noise.
Bottom line is they needed a back. Penny is on a 1 year deal and has had a ton of injuries. Carson done. Dallas and Homer are solid depth, but it doesn't work when they need to be THE option
So far, so good with Walker
He thankfully healed up and started to get touches before Penny got injured.
Penny wasn't exactly conceding touches either. Was on pace for over 1,500 yards at 6 ypc. He's just snakebite after a very durable college career
RB is tricky and can change game to game, year to year
Walker will need to develop on passing downs and adjust to the adjustments that will come his way and most importantly stay healthy

I thought we were too good to hire him because we dominated him during his tenure on the Eagles. Articles were being written saying you don’t hire a coach you dominated. I guess hindsight is 20/20

SF defence vs KC: 44 pts - 529 yards
AZ defence vis KC: 44 pts - 488 yards
*some say that SF has a Super Bowl ready defence capable of bringing pressure with just four, yada, yada.

I believe Niners D was ranked number 1 going into yesterday. They also had numerous injuries. When they are reasonably healthy the D is very good. Wouldn’t judge them on one game vs. Chiefs.

Sure, and I wouldn't over-emphasize our results against KC, either.
Unlike SF, we didn't have a half dozen tapes to analyse going in.

I thought I read that SF was missing 6 starters on their D? They still came out strong early on, but Mahomes/Reid, as great as they are, exposed their injury riddled secondary.

They beat without a QB already no?

I agree, have not seen anything from Leftwich that he could be a good OC.

And this was done with Vance running schemes that everyone knows the Chiefs feast one (i.e., blitzing Mahomes).

Am I the only one who was actually encouraged by the play of the NFC this weekend compared to us? Sheez, besides the eagles and mayyyybe the Giants, who really is about that life? I mean we still suck but so does everyone else.
He most certainly was. Pete ball makes so much sense now. They focused on the run game and deep ball because that's what Wilson is good at. There's a reason the Seahawks offense has looked basically the same through 3 different offensive coordinators.
Zappe comes in and sparks the Pats
TD pass brings it to 10-7

Has the Mac Jones era already ended in NE?!

Looking like it… if they struck lightning in a bottle in 4th round with Zappe that would be incredible. Smh
Watching these QBs standing in the pocket and taking shots to able to complete passes make you wonder
He was all hype. Bailey is the better quarterback
If Zappe had gone to a bigger name school he would’ve been a first or second round pick easy
