And since it’s almost a certainty that both Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson will be… Read More 🤯 Did the 49ers Trade Up to Draft Mac Jones?
A few big draft trades just went down. The 49ers moved up to the #3 pick while the Dolphins moved down to San Francisco’s #12 spot.

I was hesitant to “go there” with the DeShaun Watson sexual harassment/assault allegations that have been piling up by the day (22 now), but let’s be honest: we’re all thinking the same thing here.

The final in Tampa: Bucs 31, Chiefs 9. A total beatdown. Brady now has 7 rings, more than any other NFL franchise. The Patriots and Steelers both have 6 rings in their franchise histories. Brady has 7. That’s just absurd. He proved that it wasn’t just the Patriots’ system that made him great. What more… Read More 🐐🐐 S E V E N 🐐🐐🐐 R I N G S 🐐🐐
We are now just days away from the first-ever Super Bowl matchup between two QBs who have won both regular season and Super Bowl MVP awards. It’s hard to believe, but it’s true.
