NFL Week 15 -- Big Game Hunting

It looks like a World League of American Football team against a team of ghosts.

 

The white Packers helmet with the logo looks like Gannett is playing.

I expect two-thirds of the team to be cut at halftime. They’ll have to do more with less and work smarter not harder to win this one.

 

The spirit of the Orlando Thunder lives on.

 

Obviously it's "Ugly White Helmet Day."

 

Is Mahomes regressing? He really hasn't looked very good this year — yeah, KC is still winning, but still — and, if we're being honest, he hasn't looked good the last two years. A part of it is the dogshit offensive line that's trying to get him killed, a part is Kelce being hounded on every play, a part is the injury to Rice (and maybe Brown). But at one time today, he missed at least seven consecutive passes. He isn't completing the downfield throws when players are open, and hasn't for two or more years. This is easily his worst season as a pro. Susan Collins is very concerned.

Yeah, I've been spoiled with the three SB titles and the 5,000-yard season and the two MVPs, but he doesn't look good and there's no way the Chiefs will win another title with him playing this way. At some point, Mahomes can't talk about cleaning things up and getting back to playing they way they think they should; they either will or they won't. The eye test tells me they won't. They got six turnovers and four sacks on Winston and still scored only 21 points. They shoule have doubled that total, should have done it easily — and yet they punted seven times with a three-and-out possession.

To top it all off, now Mahomes is hurt.

This rant has been building all season. Today made it pop.

 

I love the Seahawks tribute to blacklight semen.

 

Two seasons of quality spring football watching Kerwin Bell and Scott Mitchell trying to quarterback. What a life I've had.

 

Not so impressed by their tribute to Arena Football League defense.

 

Lamar Jackson today: 21-for-25 for 290 yards, five touchdowns and no interceptions.
For the season, he has a 34-3 TD-INT ratio. Pretty good for a guy who can't throw.

The Indy Colts are lucky to have the Colts name.

 

It’s a good thing they’re playing in Seattle then. If they were in Green Bay, the Lambeau Leap would violate the no-jump rule.

 

For the Indy Star columnist, bashing the Black QB of the home team is probably a good business decision.
