Have you heard of the Peter Principle? It says people tend to rise to their level of incompetence. I don’t think Nick Sirianni has heard of it. Or if he has, he might think it’s a good thing. It’s not. Check it out Nick. Please stop practicing it.

The only Super Bowl winners in this century who ranked lower than 7th in regular season point differential are 2015 Broncos (10), 2011 Giants (19), 2007 Giants (13) and 2006 Colts (9). All Mannings!

Does NFL point differential matter? The most recent Super Bowl winners ranked 2, 6, 4, 6, 4, 4, 5, 1, 1 in regular season point differential. Current ranking is Seahawks, Rams, Patriots, Texans, Colts, Bills.

Executive Order of the President of the United States: “The admissions of up to 7,500 refugees to the United States during Fiscal Year 2026… shall primarily be allocated among Afrikaners from South Africa …”

An executive order that will live in infamy.

Is anyone tracking Al Michael’s dated allusions? Like Thursday he said Carson Wentz “has been in the Mixmaster all night long.”

Did people talking about Dak Prescott as MVP watch last 2 possessions of Panthers game? Dak had 5 4th quarter comeback wins as rookie (2016). Awesome.Since then - 13 in 118 starts. Same time period, Jimmy Garoppolo - 12 in 68 starts. (PFR stats). Let’s wait on that MVP talk.

The Phillies scored 1 run in 11 innings. A total of 7 runs in their 3 losses. One error ended this series but was not the reason they lost the series.

What if Vic Fangio plays Mac McWilliams at CB today against the Rams?

Worthy is looking for the ball. Kelce is not.

Amazing. I had not seen that old multi colored tv test pattern since the good old days of watching Ramar of the Jungle on Saturday mornings. This administration is serious about Retro America.

Congrats to Jerry Jones for publicly complaining about having to pay his best players for games they missed with injuries — at a time when players are very conscious that they need to step up because their union has not been exemplary about protecting them from owner malfeasance.

amazing stat someone noticed:
Chris Jones KC - 22 playoff games - 3.5 sacks
Nolan Smith - Eagles - 5 playoff games - 4.5 sacks

A friend said he thinks Jumping Jack Flash has the best opening line ever: “I was born in a crossfire hurricane.” Anybody have any others?

Eagles punter Braden Mann has not gotten the appreciation he deserves.

The last three Philadelphia Eagles championships have been against:
Vince Lombardi (1960)
Bill Belichick (2017)
Andy Reid (2024).

And all three interrupted what would have been three-peats.

NFL player interviews are “like going to the dentist every day to have the same tooth pulled.” Dolphins tackle Manny Fernandez quoted by Hunter Thompson (1974)
Fear and Loathing at the Super Bowl
Mano a mano with the Oakland Raiders... Down and out in Houston... Is pro football over the hump? Hunter S. Thompson on 1974 Super Bowl.

22 QBs have been taken first overall in the last 35 years. How many of them not named Manning have won a Super Bowl?

One. Matthew Stafford. And of course Eli and Peyton did.
