Looking forward to tonight. I can't see us getting anything. Eli has the chance to find s bit of form. A lot can virtually be decided in fantasy as well this week.

Rodgers stomped out AGAIN. It's just too easily for Eli, to be fait to Conroy, he did say we're the only team he doesn't want to meet in the playoffs.

norv fails again for us. 4-7 record for us is not good enough at all. we struggle to make first downs. our punt team are on the field more lately than our offense. I picked up Kaepernick in my fantasy league which went ok. just wish I didnt pick up Hillman!! im now 6-6 so need to win my last 2 to make play offs.

Correct. Not because you beat us, but because you are the only team in the league who could stick with us (and potentially beat us) when we are playing close to our best (which we haven't at all this season).

I haven't watched the game yet but it is a pretty dissapointing result. Seems like we couldn't protect A-Rod or get to Eli. A big part of that will be injuries to key players but that is something we need to get past like we did in our SB year.

It was bad again wasn't it. The thing is, when you should be gutted giving up a 10 point lead in the 4th quarter against a team that could not do anything offensively, I'm just accepting it and I expected it after the 3rd quarter. Terrible 2nd half again. Rice's miracle play was a joke from the D and officials. He shouldn't've got close enough for it to be an issue, but the officials got the 1st down call wrong. Long term it will probably help, as our lack of an o line will likely see AJ out of the door as well as Norv. That is the biggest hole on this team. A quarterback running for his life every play is never going to win us a game.

I'm continued to be impressed with our D, they did enough to win the game. Unfortunately the o line did more than enough to lose it.

im really pleased with our D and special teams this season after recent years. just pitty our attack has gone the opposite direction. If Norv doesnt go this season then ive no idea what the board and GM are playing at. where would you be looking for another main man? grabbing an offensive coach from someone or looking at the College coaches?? Chip kelly the Oregan coach excites me but obviously we need someone with experience and can attract some offensive lineman to protect and make holes for Rivers and Matthews.

I like Kelly but I don't think Spanos would have deep enough pockets to lure him away from the Nike funded Oregon Ducks. It would make sense for me to gor for an offensive guy, seeing as Norv is our offensive play caller (which I think is the main reason he'll be here until the end of the season). Mike McCoy from Denver woud be a safe choice. I don't see a big name coming as I don't see Spanos making that big of a splash. I am praying that Smith gets the boot aswell but I can't see that happening.

I think deep down I expect Bisachia to get the gig and bring in an experienced offensive co-ordinator.

Hoof Hearted picking up a head of steam in the fantasy league.

Reports that an unnamed Chiefs played has killed his girlfriend then gone to the Stadium and committed suicide. Seen the same name popping up over twitter, but not going to repeat it.

It's been confirmed by police that it's Jovan Belcher. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100000 ... police-say This will be pretty hard for the KC players to turn up and play tomorrow.Maybe the game should be postponed for a couple of days to give the players and Crennel some time to come to terms with what has happened.
