The Packers offense is currently a subtle parody of a Packers offense. Few people get it.

M. Night Shyamalan. The talent to be the next Hitchcock. Some early masterpieces. Then lots of self-indulgent silliness that his superfans fiercely defend.

TankWatch: Cleveland Browns Ding! Dong! DePodesta's Gone! But is Shedeur Sanders the Scarecrow, Tin Man or Cowardly Lion? Dillon Gabriel definitely represents the Loll-pop Guild.

"DePodesta rose to prominence as the wingman for Billy Beane at the vanguard of a cabal of geek-chic Gen X’ers who dared to pose the Forbidden Question to baseball’s tobacco-masticating philosopher-yogis: What if Math Were Real?"

Love is more of a Verhoven.

Geno Smith is more of a PTA.

Fun in spots. Technically brilliant. Inevitably disappointing. But vehemently defended by an army of film bros who just appreciate things on a deeper level.

Justin Herbert is the Zach Snyder movie of quarterbacks.

My Justin Herbert takes are quarantined on the Too Deep Zone for everyone's protection.

Im honored to be on the list too!

The 49ers are signing Matt Gay, per @tompelissero.bsky.social.

A new kicker in the Bay Area.

Aaron Donald will be honored on Sunday at SoFi Stadium with a video tribute, bobblehead and more.

“I always say I feel like L.A. adopted me. … When you know how hard you worked to put yourself in a certain position… it’s pretty special.”

The 49ers had tryouts with the following free-agent kickers:
Tanner Brown
Anders Carlson
Matt Gay
John Parker Romo
Cade York

StatsHub Explore FTN’s StatsHub — the most advanced NFL stats tool with player-level data, custom filters, and exclusive metrics like DVOA.

According to @ftnfantasy.com StatsHub, Caleb Williams ranks eighth in DVOA under pressure but 30th in DVOA when not under pressure.

(He's still better without pressure, every QB is, but that's a big difference in where he ranks!)

A scenario that has the Jets squeaking into the playoffs despite their 0.0% playoff odds, per FTN.

The Jets are in ~slightly~ better shape than the Giants, both in that they can't get eliminated this week and in that they actually have a chance to win tiebreakers at 8 wins, giving them an extra win of cushion over the Giants.

Hey, they don't even have to beat the Bills!

Already getting a ton of great feedback on this thank you

One-Score Games and the Kansas City Chiefs In a world where all one-score games went the other way, the Kansas City Chiefs would be 10-0. What does this tell us about how good teams are in 2025?

The 10-0 Kansas City Chiefs? The 2-8 Philadelphia Eagles? Shake up just a few one-score games this year, and the headlines would be a lot different.

Begging both parties in this relationship to do anything that is normal for people of their age bracket to do

We have absolutely no idea if Shedeur Sanders is actually an NFL quarterback, but the Browns *have* to play him the rest of the season, to find out.

Shedeur Sanders is not a real quarterback. He’s a caricature by an Upright Citizens Brigade improv comic who doesn’t like sports very much, about a quarterback like Shedeur Sanders.

Eagles fans when someone hires Patullo in 2026:

I agree with this assessment. Patullo is such an offensive visionary that I think the Giants should hire him away right this moment.

It would rob the Eagles of Patullo's contributions. But we want what's best for the coach here.

This one of the most insane contracts of the offseason the minute it happened. End Loomis' reign of terror on this poor fanbase

One spot to go in this promotion!

Michael Penix Jr. to undergo season-ending knee surgery A second opinion has led the Falcons to sideline their starting quarterback for the remainder of the 2025 season.

The Falcons just announced that Michael Penix Jr. will have surgery on his partially torn ACL; @rapsheet.bsky.social indicating it's at least a nine month recovery timeline for Penix

Welcome back to QB hell, it's like we never left

I wholeheartedly agree with @miketanier.bsky.social, not all situations are created equal, and we SHOULD be holding J.J. McCarthy and Michael Penix to higher standards.

What Paul DePodesta did to the Browns was like investing money needed for food and roof repairs into cryptocurrency, then telling the family over a crackers-and-ketchup dinner that they were too stupid to understand his daring long-range vision.
