Some trickery with OBJ throwing the Edelman for 20 yards to open the game.

And the 49ers respond with an 83 yard run by Breida in their first offensive play.

That guy is crazy fast.

The Browns seem to have no understanding of where their weaknesses are. The constant slow developing pass plays are insane.

This is fun. It’s like video game football tonight.

Given how they are all performing at the moment, it's crazy that the Pats at one point started Tom Brady, Jimmy G, and Jacoby Brissett all in one season.

Breida already has 23.1 fantasy points.

Yesterday, 5 players had more than 40 points in standard PPR formats, the first time that's happened in the same week since 1965 (which basically means, first time ever).

Guy in my league had a 158-124 lead going into tonight. His opponent has Breida. If he loses, that would be the most epic one player comeback in the 20+ years I can remember seeing in FFL.

Can everyone agree to not tell OBJ that the broadcast compared him to Lebron?

I'm officially renaming Baker "HRB" in honor of our very own "HomeRunBaker." Fucking guy refuses to take the short passes when they are there, and instead, looks for the home run ball on every play. It's unbearable to watch as a Tom Brady fan.

The Browns are the poster child for an 8-8 team. They should hire Jeff Fisher to coach

Poor OBJ somehow found a worse situation than with the Giants.

I doubt the Niners get there, but a Patriots/Niners SB would be something.

Even Booger is telling them to hit some short routes

Mayfield is a real trick or treat QB. Doesn’t really have a great feel for pressure though. Gonna get himself killed If he doesn’t figure that out.

Not an easy schedule ahead for The Niners but if they crush this game who’s to say what their ceiling is? Saints probably still inch ahead of the other NFC contenders but really the Niners are right there in a year without a truly dominant team (save one)

This really is the most video game-y real game I can remember seeing.

The Browns have absolutely no intention of winning this game.

It’s like San Francisco doesn’t really want to put up points, they just happen to have some because Browns.

I wasn’t sure the shotgun was the right formation for a 4th and 1 but it worked.

Baker's throw was a little low, but that was a ridiculous drop by that WR. those type of huge swings usually decide NFL games.

185 yards on the ground in the first half for 49ers.

Thus far.

Jimmy hasn't looked good to me tonight, but he also hasn't really needed to so far.

Remember like 10 minutes ago when Booger said "Hey America! Here come the Browns!"

That as fun.
