The Niners are reeling with three straight losses.

Meanwhile, Burrow is getting healthy and looking like Joe Burrow again. Two teams trending in opposite directions.

Once he started feeding Chase they got good again.

Steve Wilks' defense has been sus. 49ers fans already turning on him.

Why are the Niners getting McCaffrey hit when the game is over? This is just dumb.

Given how Purdy is looking like today, Darnold may actually be a viable option for the short term.

Purdy became the first player in the NFL this season to enter concussion protocol and play the week after. They should have kept him out for his own safety anyway.

Sure. But he already had two others plus a third pick that he got cleared of due to a roughing call. 

Oh he is not having a good game but I get the last one. It just is what it is.

KC is gonna lose to Denver? Yikes. That's a bad L.

Pretty sure that happened in 2022.

I normally would be upset about this but the Taylor Swift thing has made me genuinely hate KC.

It's quite a lot for me to want the Broncos to win.

Apologies I meant this season.

49ers with two bad losses in consecutive weeks. Love to see it.

Also the Chiefs losing to the Broncos of all teams can hopefully give the rest of the league and fans a break from the Travis Kelce Taylor Swift media machine.

It's definitely super annoying. I get it. The NFL wants to capitalize on appealing to new viewers. But fug, I don't need to TayTay getting as much screentime as Mahomes.

Probably didn't want to cause a controversy although Purdy's play today is going to cause one anyways.

Also, KC losing to Denver isn't a massive surprise. Divisional games can be like that. However, Mahomes just doesn't seem to be as an explosive player as before. Not surprising given anyone other than Kelce isn't anyone really worth mentioning. Oh, and Swift wasn't there for this game so of course the loss is blamed on that.
