The defense might stink, but this offense should be great or at the very least exciting.
Hill and Watkins are both speedy deep threats that really need to be covered by 2 defenders each.
Conley is a nice possession receiver in the short to middle range.
Kelce is a star that can exploit single coverage.
Two strong running backs.
And a QB that can fling the ball all over.

With Alex Smith and weaker receivers this was an explosive offense in 2017.
This should be a fantasy juggernaut.

If it wasn't for the Peters trade, I really thought this team was headed for something special. Right now this team seems like it could be a throwback to the 2003 Vermeil Chiefs that went 9-0 but lost to the Colts in the no-punt playoff game.

As for Best Picture...

I know it's not going to be Get Out or Dunkirk, they have too many awesome things. 

Phantom Thread, Darkest Hour, The Post, Call Me By Your Name don't have the pre-Oscars acclaim to win. 

So it's down to Lady Bird, Three Billboards or Shape of Water. 

According to the betting market it's a two horse race between Three Billboards and Shape of Water. 

My guts says Three Billboards wins the acting awards above but not Best Picture...the concept is kinda awesome. 

Meanwhile Shape of Water is getting the Director's award so it'll likely be the Best Picture winner as well.
