Hi. I wrote something. Been filled with many thoughts lately, as most of us have.
I know there's been a lot of think pieces over the last few days and it's exhausting at this point. But I had to let my thoughts pour out. Maybe this helps you. I hope it does.

Curious what others may think on this
But my best guess for the Super Bowl Matchup this season is Rams vs.... Bills?
Think that feels the most right at the moment as I trust Josh Allen over Drake Maye. But the Patriots would be my No. 2 pick from the AFC right now

Whew. That Penix news is huge, huge NFL news
Real chance the Rams will make the Super Bowl and will have a Top 5 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. The latter outcome there is 100% happening
Rebuild incoming for the Falcons, who should consider drafting a QB in the second round, and in the 1st in '27

Monday morning Quarterback thoughts thread:
Has Bryce Young figured things out? For this season, 14-7 TD-INT ratio, nearly 200 yards per game, 63% comp. percentage, QBR nearing 50
Basically league average across the board, and the Panthers are just a half game back in the division. Interesting!

The NFL has a problem with its referees
Has been that way for a long time, and we’re way past a tipping point. But until Goodell cares, nothing will get done

Mahomes is the boogeyman
But to make the AFC playoffs, you need to have *at least* 10 wins. Considering they don’t have tiebreakers vs. the Bills and Jaguars (and possibly the Chargers) Kansas City needs to win 11
Which means they can’t lose more than 1 of these games. I just don’t see it

Since a week of bad discourse is ahead, put me in the camp of “Shedeur didn’t look *good* but there were flashes for someone who came off the bench in the 2nd half vs. the Ravens”
Would like to see him with a week of prep
Biggest issue he has is running backwards. Needs to bail out east to west

When Shedeur isn’t scared shitless/runs backwards and stands tall in the pocket….
I’m sorry, but it looks good. Just doesn’t happen enough yet!

Don’t think the Seahawks should be that discouraged at all by that result
Two-point loss off that Darnold performance? They’ll be fine

This Los Angeles Rams team currently has the No. 9 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and yeahhhh I’m starting to think that pick might get even better
One of the biggest storylines in the league right now, off a total bozo trade by the Falcons

Good for the Bears
That McCarthy performance 1000% did not deserve a win
If you have a GM who picks that guy to lead your team under center over Sam Darnold, you simply have to fire them
It actually is that simple

As one of the few Jacksonville Jaguars fans on your feed — idk what to make of them either
Think the simplest explanation is Liam Coen is a legit great play caller and effective coach. No way they should be 6-4 with Trevor playing like he has this year and with their injuries
Coen deserves praise

Had to double check on this —
But 28 Years Later is on Netflix, and I just rewatched the Memento Mori sequence in the bone temple
I’m an absolute mess. One of the most emotional sequences you’ll see in a movie. Kudos to everyone who had a part in making that. A masterpiece scene

Arch Manning has been lights out tonight. Really, really good
And he is getting the worst pass-catching help I’ve seen from a Power 4 team in a big game this season
Just drop after drop. Really good Trevor Lawrence impression

Get ready for a full week of “But the SEC is SO STRONG from top to bottom!!! Let them all in the playoff!!!”
Whereas, it’s just *another* disappointing season for the conference, and probably the third year in a row it’s not gonna win the title. We have eyes — we know these teams aren’t that good
