Come find me over on Bluesky, I'm phasing this site out as more and more people are there.

Everyone's talking about the LaMelo Ball travel but I still haven't seen it. Anyone have a clip? I've wasted enough time trying to find one.

But curiously, this is not the first time six teams have won their opener by 20+, which also happened in 2021-22:
Atlanta won by 26
Miami won by 42
Milwaukee won by 23
Philadelphia won by 20
San Antonio won by 26
Utah won by 21

That's because he had a 15.0 ADOT. Deep balls are usually uncatchable. Who knew.
Found myself in a mock draft mood last night and whipped up a first round - even though I know the draft order and evaluations will wildly change until the real thing.

real bozo opening series by Schottenheimer, one pass to a wide receiver in six plays and then punting from Packers territory
finally looked up what the "C.J." in "C.J. Stroud" stands for and you are not prepared for the answer
found myself baffled by all the praise for his signing (and the Bleacher Report NFL 1000 rating him as the #19 CB in the league this year!) he's a great blitzer and terrible in coverage. he's always at the top of the league for big plays and bottom for coverage grade.
#Titans CB Alontae Taylor is INACTIVE today. It's not injury related, it's a coaches decision.
And last week when the Eagles kicked the ball in play to the Jaguars they returned it to field goal range. You can say this no matter what they decided. There's no "run the clock to zero" option on a kickoff.
Texans risked a late Jaguars field goal before halftime by kicking the ball into the end zone with eight seconds left and Jacksonville holding two timeouts. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…

I’ve never read an article that’s so out of touch with the fans, and instead, writing only for a small fraternity of beat writers whose feelings were hurt this week. This is as bad as it gets. (Nothing to do with Peggy, she just shared the article).
Damn Scoop! SMH. "Be careful, man. Mess around here, and you can way sooner than you want to believe become a has-Ben." @OGIIISCOOP chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2…
I'm reminded that for how well everything worked out there, Sean Payton's first choice was Green Bay and Drew Brees' first choice was Miami. I'm not even sure how much credit Loomis deserves for them.

Couple of things that upset me about this
A) it’s not holding. He chops his arm down and he lost his balance
B) this is very important. Holding is only supposed to be called if it could effect the play. The DE is double teamed and the ball is gone at the time of the “holding”. He’s nowhere near the QB.
Just an all time bad call. It’s an official looking to be part of the game.
jesus christ i looked him up and through six games he had 932 yards and 12 TD. a true freshman averaging over 155 yards and two TDs a game already
Four of the top seven in the poll have lost so far, with Notre Dame at BYU and Miami vs. Florida State still to go.
