You might think this sounds exciting at first.
The trip has officially begun!
And at this point - there is nothing you’ve got the option to do about it.
ESPN has made their annual reminder of how rare it is for 0-2 teams to make the playoffs.
That’s my reality at least.
No, not economic inflation.
Something more serious and deleterious to our society and way of life.
The inflation of field goals in our football games.
Last season there were 238 made field goals through the first two weeks.
Second most all time only to 242 in 2022.
Well after the five from Monday Night Football that puts us at 277 this season.
This is quite simply too many field goals.
Our forefathers didn’t design this game to be taken over by field goal kickers.
The game is called foo…
Shit.
Whatever, the point is teams shouldn’t be winning when they don’t score touchdowns.
But that’s been the reality so far.
Something has to change.
But that has nothing on what happened in Week 2…
But at least they made them win it in overtime (with a safety).
What an absolute hell the state of the New York Football Giants are in.
But it’s real.
No - not prime Andy Dalton.
End of the road 14-year journeyman Andy Dalton.
The Carolina Panthers make Giants fans look like Saudi prince’s.
This is the most desolate state of being I think I’ve ever seen a team be in.
But don’t laugh too hard Dolphins fans.
This -60 point differential is nothing compared to your 2019 rendition (-92).
Sad Stat #4 - Sam Darnold has a longer touchdown pass than these legends
Patrick Mahomes.
97 yard touchdown pass to Justin Jefferson in Week 2.
If only Carolina had a quarterback like him to turn things around.
But at 2-0, he also has everyone wondering if this is real.
Is this some cruel joke that will leave them crashing hard?
Will be interesting to see because this team sure as hell has a history of fraudulence.
Could it possibly be real?
The biggest favorites of both Week 1 and Week 2 lost.
Cincinnati in Week 1.
Baltimore in Week 2.
I looked up the last time that happened.
And both teams got crushed too.
I might need to look into Baltimore a little closer soon.
They now find themselves at 0-2 after losing on last second plays.
Crashed and burned right before getting to where they wanted to go.
More like the Boeingmore Ravens, I guess.
But what is it with them completely shitting the bed the first couple of weeks?
Is it Joe Burrow?
Or is it Zach Taylor?
I’m starting to think it’s Zach Taylor:
1-11 in his head coaching career.
But this is what we might call a pattern.
What is going on during camp/preseason?
Is anyone doing anything?
Sad Stat #7 - Bears Twitter is in full ‘Well Actually’ mode
Come on guys.
What are we doing here?
And that’s saying something.
Honorable mention to east coast hosts.
