All good things must come to an end and so our guests must make their way back to the locker room and wait to be called upon once more.

Emphasis on Pick-ett this week as the QB has another THREE interception game including the game sealer on SNF against the Dolphins. I'm mad because Pickett seems to have some skill throwing the ball, but he is very Winston-esque in that he doesn't care what team he's throwing to. The Steelers are going to need to change a lot on offense by next year if they want to back up their reputation as competitors in the NFL.
Walker cleared injury protocol and returned to the field this weekend against the Buccaneers. After another loss to the organization by trading RB Christian McCaffrey, the Panthers had lost all hope. That was until P.J. came to play! The Panthers dominated Tom Brady and the Bucs with a score of 21-3. This is the excitingly bad team I was waiting for. P.J. gets his first gold star and according to interim HC Steve Wilks the starting job until further notice despite the return of both Mayfield and Darnold.

Another safe game by Brissett and another big fat L. Brissett once again was allotted a game-winning drive and once again failed to win the ball game. They now fall way behind in the AFC and should just give [REDACTED] the rest of the year off to avoid any injuries and get him a shiny new toy in the draft.
I will start off by saying that Dalton's stat line is misleading. Two of his interceptions were returned for touchdowns in a game decided by 8 points, however, they were at fault of receivers with bricks for hands. Dalton slang the rock all night long just to be let down by his teammates. No backup on my watch will go without a Gold Star Performance on a 4 TD game. The real sad part of this game is that the bird gauntlet wins again, and we must wait until the scheduling Gods declare the next challenger.
Most Recent Performance: 67.6%, 303yds, 2 TD, 1 INT
You would think that a solid Niners team adding an All-Pro RB would automatically destroy anything in its path, but no they don't. Or at least the Chiefs were the wrong litmus test. I believe that CMC will produce for Jimmy G & Co., but it will take some time to develop. The 49ers are known for being built for the postseason and we will likely not see the final product until late December when it matters. Solid game for Garoppolo, but I expect more with the tools he has been given.
Most Recent Performance: 63.6%, 185, 1 TD, 2 INT
Zappe came off the bench Monday night after Belichick pulled Mac Jones early in the second quarter. Zappe came in hot immediately leading back-to-back touchdown drives before ultimately fizzling out. With the benching of Jones, there is now officially a QB controversy in New England. We all want our boy Zappe to take over, but we'll see how Jones responds this week in practice.
New Challenger Approaching!
