Right out of the gate, it was bad. It didn’t get better on this backbreaking 4th down to make it 14-0. The Bucs never recovered and fell 26-7.

This was a pretty big game for the chargers. Though one half, that seemed like it might be on the table. Then Joey Bosa goes down with a hip injury and doesn’t return. Then Slater hurts his pec and doesn’t return. Then Herbert gets rolled up on again and doesn’t return. Then Joe Alt gets rolled up on and doesn’t return. I wanted to believe that Harbaugh could destroy “Chargering” through sheer force of will....

This is the moment where everything turns around. Probably not, but I want to believe in something. I’m a firm believer in tails never fails, even though it failed here. In fact it failed miserably considering the Giants fumbled the opening kick return. But, the point stands. Daniel Jones launching a ball downfield? Malik Nabers is there somewhere. Devin Singletary running wild? Sure, fuck it. The defense flying around making plays?...

Welcome back to the Stats Lab. Probably doesn’t matter that much. But a coach being really good off a bye week? A team covering a lot as a road dog? Probably means they’re being consistently undervalued. League wide trends that hold steady across hundreds of matchups spanning years and years? So you have to look at every stat individually and decide if it matters. Below is my entire cheat sheet I used for Advisors this week....

Holy shit what a catch. Oh and he finishes the drive off with a ridiculous touchdown catch too? The man is going to save Daniel jones career simply by being awesome. That’s the only way to describe him. The perfect draft pick at 6 if you ask me. Everyone loves to shit on Joe Schoen but this is the right move. He found his guy, sat there and didn’t panic when all the quarterbacks went off the board....

Full disclosure, I’m a Bowling Green fan. I grew up, went to college there, my parents still live there, etc. I wanted the referees arrested right there on the spot. I wanted every stupid Texas A&M cult member in the stands arrested along with them. I wanted the male cheerleaders arrested twice. I wanted everybody in College Station arrested except for the dog. I thought the screw job was on....

Stool Scenes 473 - On this week’s episode of Stool Scenes, Dave Portnoy hosts the biggest food festival in NYC and more.

FEMA said in a followup email that the message was sent out mistakenly. Their statement below reads: Somebody at the Federal Emergency Management Agency is a Saints fan. There’s no way this gets sent out by accident. If it simply declaring a disaster in a specific area, or suburb of Dallas. Even if it were declaring an emergency is Arlington. Then I would think it was simply a mistake. Somebody must have fat fingered the, “Declare Emergency in Dallas” button....

Every so often you need a good reminder about Biff Poggi. Dude is the coolest, most unique man in all of college football. He doesn’t have the easiest job. Charlotte stinks as a football program, but don’t tell that to Biff. He knows how to sell and sex always sells. That’s probably why he doesn’t worry about showing off the arms and chest. Not worried about a record when he’s trying to build a program....

But for one glorious moment, we got to witness what football used to be about. Just dudes going out there and trying to knock the piss out of somebody. What a sick and unjust twist of fate. He’ll always have this hit on tape, though.

Holy shit, UNC.

Maybe that’s why I’m blogging about the NFL instead of playing in it. Yeah, that’s probably the reason. Anyway, I know that headline reads like a Mad Libs created in the back of a school bus. you’re able to tell even Jamie Foxx knew this was the case once Jerry started spitting.

First off, NARC! What the heck is that? What, you’re free to’t gamble til 8am without someone telling on you? Social media ruins everything. Can guys not even have fun anymore??? You don’t intend to roll dice til 8am, sometimes it just happens. You’re on a heater and next thing you know the sun is rising. Besides, Michael Jordan did this basically every day. So do we want our pro athletes to “Be like Mike” or not?...
