Patriots win again, in typical nauseating fashion.

Their defense and special teams has outscored Miami's offense, I believe. 

NE has 3 defensive TDs and 2 ST.  Mia off has 2.

i thought NE looked very vulnerable yesterday. We'll see once they start playing above a .200 SoS

New England does have some vulnerability I predict at the end of the season NE def/st has more TDs than the MIa off.  My confidence in this prediction stems more from my view of Mia than of NE.

When is that? They still have the Jets, Browns, Dolphins and Bengals. Ravens and Eagles are mediocre, the Cowboys aren't contenders, the Bills have had an even easier schedule and the Texans aren't impressing anyone right now. Only really tough game I see is against Kansas City. The schedule gets harder for the Pats but a 14-2 year would not be shocking even if they aren't really that much of a juggernaut.

The dream continues for the 49ers...going on the road and hammering the Rams. The Niners' defense is looking scary good right now.

5-0...

49rs are looking good, but like NE they haven't played anyone with a winning record.  (Actually NE played the Bills)  They should easily sail to 6-0, then their schedule gets harder.

Because your GM did something that ours failed to do.   He built the trenches solid first.

Sure they have...The Rams were 3-2 when we went into their stadium and destroyed them...

49ers won and defense did its job.  But the offense was not impressive against a horrible Washington team.

No argument there... But, again, we are down to our #4/#5 tackles, no Juszczyk at FB, and most of our WRs are a bit nicked up.

We were also playing in a mud bowl...that was pretty ridiculous. Joe Montana and Jerry Rice would've had difficulties generating offense in those conditions.

Next 4 games, Panthers-Cardinals-Seahawks-Cardinals, and 3 of the 4 are at home. We should get McGlinchey and a few other starters back by then, so...

Go NINERS!!

Yeah, man.  Your 49ers have been one hell of a turnaround/success story.  It must be nice to be able to root for a good team.  I can barely remember the last time I was able to do that.

The 49ers deal for a player I've always liked, WR Emmanuel Sanders, which definitely addresses our biggest need at this point.

Joe Staley is expected to start practicing again this week, and McGolinchey and Juszczyk should be back in the next few weeks.

LET'S GO NINERS!!

Is it too early to start imagining what the 72 Fins reaction would be if two 18-0 teams were to play a SB in Miami?

I've got a vivid imagination...and I just can't see it. One...or both will get tripped up at least once before the regular season is over.

P.S.  Props to the Baby Bear, Nick Bosa, for winning the NFC Defensive Player (and Rookie) of the Month award.
