@hscer Funny how there's no correlation between this and rings. Almost like football is a team sport!

h/t @2mileshigh for collecting the data average PAA in playoff starts, 2006-present, min. 10 starts

@_falsi1ke Nobody. It's not a big deal, I don't need anyone taking care of me.

Single people that live alone, who takes care of you when you're ill?

@Mubarak_mubious Asking “How are you?” to people I don’t care about

what's a "small" social rule you refuse to follow, even if everyone expects it ??

American culture normalizing "What do you do for a living?" as an icebreaker question was a huge mistake. We shouldn't judge people by their careers and act like it's the headline of everyone's identity.

@the_transit_guy All of them

Which cities with bad weather would be in much higher demand if they had Los Angeles–type weather?

@thechosenberg As a straight man I would never be at those types of activities

There are no meet cutes stop expecting meet cutes in 2026

@I_AM_WILDCAT Amen, brother

QB wins mattering is the fucking dumbest thing ever in a sport where the game can be decided bc a fuckin 5th string wr muffs a punt. There are 53 men on each roster. Stop with the QB vs QB shit.

@KLVsays Yea it’s not really about football for me. It’s that I hate how the world has traded character for comfort/safety/efficiency, and sterile domed stadiums are just another example of this.

i feel like i'm one of maybe five people left on the planet that still believes american tackle football should be played outdoors, in conditions, no matter what's at stake. it's clear this sterile & synthetic world has passed me by 👴

@SheilKapadia Please get Billy Gill off your podcast. He’s incredibly annoying and makes it unlistenable.

@granthpaulsen I agree that Al's call was terrible and he needs to retire. But it's fascinating that Pat Summerall was hailed as a legend for calls that were even more monotone than this. Personally, I thought Summerall was horrendous but maybe our expectations for commentators have changed.

Two 11-3 teams playing. Division on the line. No. 1 seed on the line. 30 to 30 game. OT. Star WR goes over 200 yards. This is the call.

Kenny Pickett this week had the lowest yards/completion EVER for 15+ completions

@marty41143 @ScottKacsmar No, other teams don't do it plenty. Pass attempts from the 1 yard line this season:

They call me a hater when it's just using facts/logic to explain a statistical anomaly. 2020 Rodgers set a single-season record with 8 1-yd TD passes. Stafford's already up to 6 with 6 games to go. Maybe it's a Davante Adams thing, and maybe he's the one who told Stafford "you know they'll give you MVP if you load up on these passes like Aaron did in 2020-21". Stafford has thrown 8 of the team's 13 TDs from the 1-2 yard line, and 7-of-8 came on 1st or 2nd down. We already pivoted to "total TDs" last year to gift Josh Allen an MVP because of Tush Push TDs. It's not a good development for how the award should be viewed.

@ScottKacsmar The only QB seasons with 6+ TD passes of 1 yard

Of the top 100 QB's in career TD passes, Patrick Mahomes has the shortest average TD (16.1 yards). What does this mean? I have no idea but it's interesting!

Stafford has 20% of all 1 yard TD passes in the NFL this year. He's vultured 5 of them while no other QB has more than 2.

Matt Stafford is a legit MVP candidate but it's worth noting how inflated his TD count is from vulturing goal line scores: Stafford has TD passes of 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3 Rams RBs have TD runs of 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3

@tonyposnanski Hot take: Nothing will happen

I truly do not think the average American realizes how bad it’s going to get over the next few months.

@jeff_gluck Undo all the gimmicks from the last 20 years and go back to the philosophy of pure racing above entertainment

Alright, so here's the question of the day for you. When I talk to people around the NASCAR industry, a lot of the conversations are about how angry the fan base is. Everyone sees it (and this was well before everything boiled over on Sunday). So...how does that get fixed? How does NASCAR move forward at this point in a way where a year from now, the dialogue here is less vitriolic and you guys are back to having more fun and enjoying the sport again? I'm not naive enough to think X will ever be a happy place, but I am an optimist and believe this year could be a low point -- which means there are better days ahead. So what needs to happen for NASCAR to have its "Nature is Healing!" moment with the core fan base? I know a lot of the replies will simply be "change the championship format!" but if we're honest with ourselves, the issues run deeper than that. What's your take? What will restore your enjoyment level? I'm all ears.

@JakeMarc23 @ScottKacsmar The current 2.1% INT rate would be the lowest in history, so not just you

@ScottKacsmar Have INTs been down across the league this year or is it just me?

#NFL There have been 30 300-yard passers through Week 8 in 2025. Fewest since 2003. There were 79 in 2018.
