The Rams Survived. The Seahawks Are Built to Finish.
It was always going to be this game. I knew it. You knew it. Even the Bears knew it. The Rams beat the Bears in another amazing OT thriller during the NFL Divisional Round, and the matchup is now set. They’re headed back to Seattle next Sunday for the NFC Championship Game and a ticket […]
There Was No Secret Game Plan. The 2025 Eagles Playcalling Really Was That Bad
“You see, I think the Eagles are hiding pieces of their game plan and doing just enough to win games.” That was my dumb ass two weeks ago, talkin’ bout how the Eagles were running this lame-duck offense on purpose. I was so incredibly wrong. I did admit at the time that I thought I […]
The McKee Discourse Is Over. The Eagles’ Real Problem Was Never Jalen Hurts
When the Philadelphia Eagles’ offense was on the rocks at various points throughout this season, people (i.e., complete idiots) were calling for Jalen Hurts to be benched in favor of Tanner McKee. “Well, I just want to see what McKee can do? It can’t be worse than this, right?” Wrong. So, incredibly wrong. With the […]
Seattle’s Defense Looks Good Enough to Carry a Super Bowl Run
I will admit that I was fully ready to write an article about Seattle having a Sam Darnold problem after losing a tight one to the San Francisco 49ers. This was especially true after Darnold took an untimely sack on 1st-and-Goal from the 1-yard line, which eventually led to a failed 4th-down conversion and no […]
Everyone Thinks the Eagles Are Broken. They’re Wrong.
So I’ve developed this delusional theory about the current state of the Philadelphia Eagles. It just seems so odd to me that they can fire on all cylinders during the first half of games, only to fade into the most conservative game plan you’ve ever seen. Especially when the offense — and Jalen Hurts in […]
McLaren Is a Champion Team That Keeps Getting in Its Own Way
Yes, I realize that McLaren is coming off back-to-back Constructors’ Championships and Lando Norris (my boy!) is the reigning World Drivers’ Champion. Clearly, their on-track performance is that of an elite team that will probably continue fighting for championships for years to come. Or maybe their time in the spotlight is already fading, and the […]
Are the Seahawks Legit?
Okay, look. Don’t throw tomatoes at me just yet. Just hear me out! As I mentioned in my intro post, I have a dual NFL allegiance, being a fan of the Seahawks and Eagles. For the Seahawks, I’ve been one since about 2007. Growing up in LA, we didn’t have a team for the majority […]
Merry Christmas!
Whatever your religion, whether you celebrate or not, I hope everyone enjoys the day and has the opportunity to spend time with their families. For my NFL fans out there, I’m sorry we don’t have a better slate of games to watch. I feel like even the fans of the teams playing today aren’t happy […]
DK Metcalf and the Unfortunate Reality of Being a Black Superstar
When I used to work at Barnes & Noble, I had a black coworker in the cafe. He was one of the nicest guys in the entire store. Hardworking. Reserved. He had that gentle giant persona (he was 6’3”, 250lb). One day, I was working in my department when I heard some commotion over in […]
What Is Fourth & Wy
These posts are always awkward. How am I supposed to get y’all to like me right off the bat with some random blurb about why I’m here? Should I crack a joke? Should I try to sell you a sob story? There’s no “right” way to do this, I guess. All I can do is […]
