NFL 2023-2024 Season

MNF - Eagles 21 - 17 Chiefs
Jason Kelce finally gets a win against his brother Travis, who lost a crucial fumble, which proved to be a difference in a game were the Chief won in most categories aside from having 2-1 turnover stat.
The Chiefs led 17-7 at the half, but were scoreless in the remainder of the game. Plagued by dropped catches, & for once Mahomes couldn't work his usual magic in the dying minutes.

Thanksgiving (Thursday)
Packers @ Lions 17.30
Commanders @ Cowboys 21.30
49ers @ Seahawks 01.20

Black Friday
Dolphins @ Jets 20.00

Packers 29 - 22 Lions
The Packers started strong and stayed in the game after the Lions rallied at half time. The 3 fumbles for Detroit proved costly, credit to the Green Bay D who hurried Goff throughout. Love backed-up last weeks performance and is showing great poise, the O-line are doing a great job of protecting him. Still a small chance of making the Playoffs, which wasn't on the radar last month.
No need to panic for the Lions, who have a comfortable schedule.

^^ yes just watched it. Bit of a surprise loss for Detroit at home considering their form so far. As you say though, good rushing plays from Green Bay to stop Goff. I'm so used to seeing Packers in the playoffs that I hope they do make it, just for old times sake.

^^ Still the most successful franchise in the game with 13 Championships, the Bears are 2nd with 9.

I made some vague predictions in the Thanksgiving thread. A close game between the Packers & Lions, but I expected Detroit win. A blow-out victory for the Cowboys, who are looking real contenders. I just don't understand how the Niners thrashed Dallas when they look so strong. I didn't want to jinx the 49ers with any prediction, but they started strong, Seattle had a good 3rd quarter, only for the Niners to regain control. A failure to capitalize on turnovers was the only negative for San Fran.

I'm going to take this as a good omen at Thanksgiving with the Turducken connection (bird-in-a-bird-in-a-bird) as the Niners have a spooky schedule of not 3, but 5 birds in a row, starting last night, Seahawks,Eagles,Seahawks,Cardinals,Ravens.

^ I was shocked when I saw the Commanders v Cowboys result, and Dallas were at home.

Until I realised that you'd got the scores the wrong way round, and it's the Cowboys who'd scored the 45 points and not the Commanders

^^ Note to self - Don't post when you're half asleep.

Score edited !
