#NFL 2025 Regular Season QB Play!
- Maye deserves #MVP
- Cowboys missed the playoffs because of an awful defense
- Rodgers & Young need to get hot to have a chance at playoff success
January 7, 2026 at 6:45 PM
#NFL 2025 season by halves!
- Jones & Mahomes injuries kept them out of the playoffs
- Jets were even worse over the past 8 weeks
- Burrow helped the Bengals, but their defensive improvement helped the most

Wildcard Weekend #NFL Power Rankings!
- Rams = good
- Jets = bad
- Steelers = mid & in the playoffs... again
- Ravens = best team to fire their coach
- Colts/Lions = best teams to miss the playoffs
January 7, 2026 at 6:30 PM
#NFL QB Play (thru wk17)!
- Purdy would be MVP if he played the whole season, but Maye has the upper hand
- Brady Cook... yikes
- Allen making the playoffs with likely no other top-4 QB (Mahomes, Burrow, & Jackson) to face
December 29, 2025 at 8:13 PM
Week 18 #NFL Leans!
- It's important to mentally adjust for teams that are resting starters, but Packers are only confirmed team thus far
- Colts are a lot worse over the past 8 weeks (same with Bucs) despite Rivers being fine
- Steelers about to make the playoffs and lose in the first round again
December 29, 2025 at 8:09 PM
Week 18 #NFL Power Rankings!
- NFC West is truly a beast
- Bucs deserve to win the division, although it's close between the Ravens & Steelers
- Broncos likely to have the #1 seed, even though they are barely a playoff-caliber team
December 29, 2025 at 8:05 PM
#NFL SOS Adjustments (thru wk17)!
- Raiders a lock to take a QB
- Pats will be on Maye's back in the playoffs
- Browns & Vikings with great defenses and terrible offenses
December 29, 2025 at 8:01 PM
Week 17 #NFL Review!
- Maye could not be stopped #MVP
- Shootout on Sunday night was the game of the week
- Carolina had similar success to Seattle but lost on late downs
December 29, 2025 at 7:56 PM
#NFL Team Efficiency by Season Halves!
- Rams defense carried they early in the season, but their offense has lately
- Ravens have the most improved defense (bottom-3 to top-10), while the opposite is true for the Bucs
- Ward has taken a step forward, although is still not good
December 29, 2025 at 7:41 PM
#NFL QB Play (thru wk16)!
- Stafford still first, but Purdy would be if we lowered the play limit by 5
- Browns still looking for answers at QB
- Kirko Chains above average in grading however worse efficiency than Penix
December 23, 2025 at 6:59 PM
Week 17 #NFL Leans!
- First-3 (& 6-7) games show that QBs matter a whole lot
- Raiders match up well versus a poor Giants run defense, however take the better QB here
- Rams should continue their dominance
December 23, 2025 at 12:31 PM
Week 17 #NFL Power Rankings!
- Rams still first after losing a close one to the second best team
- QB injuries and trade-aways made the Jets even worse
- Lions looking like the best team to miss the playoffs, while the Panthers could be the opposite
December 23, 2025 at 12:27 PM
#NFL SOS Adjustments (thru wk16)!
- Browns likely don't have their answer at QB
- Titans moved out of the bottom-5 offenses after adjusting for their hard schedule
- Broncos offense couldn't keep up, after facing a top-10 Jags defense
December 23, 2025 at 12:23 PM
Week 16 #NFL Review!
- 9 of the 10 most efficient teams of the week won
- Chiefs without Mahomes are bad
- About as close as could be for the NFC South showdown
December 23, 2025 at 12:15 PM
Purdy is a legitimate top-5 QB (multiple years of elite QB play) and people need to start realizing it #NFL #49ers
December 17, 2025 at 3:52 PM
#NFL QB Play (thru wk15)!
- Love should be the MVP, but he only has the 10th (!) shortest odds, per FD
- Dart & Shough have been impressive for rookies, while Ward, Sanders, & Gabriel have not
- Burrow 3rd in grading, however below average in efficiency
December 17, 2025 at 12:44 AM
@sethwalder.bsky.social @rbsdm.com why the big discrepancy here? Panthers ended up never seeing the ball again #NFL #Analytice
December 17, 2025 at 12:28 AM
Week 16 #NFL Leans!
- Colts again a value, since 44 year-old Rivers can still ball
- Chiefs not a value with the loss of Mahomes
- Dolphins got embarrassed last night, however I doubt this Bengals D will be able to stop their O
- Lamar is not the same this year, so Pats should roll
- Rams too good
December 16, 2025 at 12:46 PM
Week 16 #NFL Power Rankings!
- Rams still the best team by far, and they face the second best team this Thursday
- AFC North to come down to Ravens & Steelers
- Bucs deserve to win the NFC South
- Texans D leading them to the top of the AFC
- Chiefs eliminated from the playoffs despite being 7th
December 16, 2025 at 12:43 PM
#NFL SOS Adjustments (thru wk15)!
- One case against Maye for MVP is Pats offense has had the easiest SOS... Broncos (Nix) & Love (Packers) aren't far behind
- Two top-5 defense face off on Thursday, but the difference is one of the teams has the best offense as well
- Jets D & O = 4th worst
December 16, 2025 at 12:38 PM
Week 15 #NFL Review!
- Browns & Raiders O put up some of the worst numbers of the season
- Rams & Lions had similar efficiency, but the Lions had the 3rd worst SR of the week
- Same for the Saints & Panthers, but the Panthers 4th worst
- Bills-Pats was the game of the week
December 16, 2025 at 12:30 PM
Updated my QB draft projections, filtering to top 150 players per PFF. Maiava & Sorsby stick out because of their elite production & ground efficiency. Mendoza projects okay, but not being elite in sack avoidance hurts him. #NFL #NCAA #CollegeFootball #NFLDraft
December 14, 2025 at 3:13 PM
#NFL QB Plays (thru wk14)!
- Love is the MVP, but it'll be between him, Stafford, & Maye
- Probably just a down year, due to injuries, however as Lamar's mobility decreases, can he win as a pocket passer?
- Seahawks look genius for the Smith-Darnold swap
