NFL 2022

I’m going to guess the Bengals will win next week, but if they don’t, that is an insanely bad way to kick off the season for a team that made the Super Bowl, and then seemingly improved on paper.

If they follow losses to the Mitch Trubisky led Steelers, and the Cooper Rush led Cowboys with a loss to the 2022 Joe Flacco led Jets?  Definitely time to panic.

Zack Wilson wishes the team, or their mothers, loved him like this.

Very happy for Joe to get this celebration, doubly happy because it came against the team he absolutely owns in the Browns.

...Flaccomania time again?

Feel like the Bills can already be pretty safely penciled into the 1 seed for the AFC.

Well that’s the end for me in the Guillotine league I’m in, Lance injury all but guarantees I’ll be the low score this week.

Fun league type, may try to run one next year.

Somehow thanks to Kirk Cousins and Dalvin Cook having absolutely putrid nights, I manage to survive another week!

It's very early. Not often the best team in week 2 maintains that through the full season.

Bucs defense is amazing and is going to really help that team find team to figure out whatever is going on with the offense.

This is fantastic.  I love how they decided to disguise a 41-year old trying out for a walk-on by making him look 47.

I don't know what ESPN were thinking last night. Firstly if you do a double-header why are you picking two home games from the east coast that have to be played at the same time, and secondly, why are you putting the score of the other game on the screen all night to ruin it for anyone wanting to watch the second game afterwards?

So that George Pickens catch was a bit ridiculous.

Teasers all around the country messed up by yet another last minute lateral play that turns into a defensive touchdown.

Pat McAfee offered some thoughts on the end of that game.

Yesterday the Giants didn’t practice, so the injury report had to be released as a projection.  Kadarius Toney was listed as a DNP rather than limited as he was the day before.  It’s the first instance any of the writers can remember of a player’s status being downgraded on a projection alone.

And sure enough, today he isn’t practicing and he’s likely to be ruled out for Monday.  So he actually managed to hurt himself again, this time on his day off.

If the best ability is availability it’s tough to not view him as anything more than a soft, injury-prone bust.

Micah Hyde is out for the season for the Bills. Keeping your safeties healthy is probably the most important thing in the current NFL and they just lost an all-pro safety for the whole year. Potentially huge injury.

It’s week 3 and Jamaal Williams has already established himself as the top TD Vulture in the league.

Swift does all the work dammit, let him score sometimes.
