Burden isn't just a deep ball merchant, but the fact remains, it's MUCH easier to be wildly efficient (especially playing for Ben Johnson) when the volume is low. Kalif Raymond in 2022 had a higher YPRR than Tee Higgins, Deebo, Aiyuk, Mike Evans and Garrett Wilson.


After learning of Notre Dame's memorandum of understanding that grants the Irish preferential playoff access starting next year, athletic directors in other leagues are threatening to freeze Notre Dame out of future schedules, per @DanWolken



The 2025 Notre Dame Fighting Irish made history. I can't believe nobody is talking about this... ND faced two (2) CFB Playoff teams in Week 1 and Week 2. You will legitimately never see this again in your life. Why? You know why. Most teams want to ease into the season. If they do play a tough opponent early, then they immediately play a cupcake. Just look at all the examples from this season: Alabama @ FSU, next week vs UL Monroe Miami vs ND, next week vs Bethune Cookman Ohio State vs Texas, next week vs Grambling (lol) LSU @ Clemson, next week La Tech Texas @ Ohio State, next week vs San Jose St FSU vs Alabama, next week vs East Texas A&M Kudos to these teams for at least challenging themselves. If you don't play a tough team to start the year, you'll do what Penn State does and play nobodies - including Villanova - for the entire month of September. Ultimately, this was Notre Dames demise. Sure they could have beaten one of these two teams. Easier said than done, especially with a freshman QB! But I digress. The point is, all the shit they get about soft scheduling, you will never again see a more difficult start to the season. Respect it!

This is such an interesting narrative because it’s not really true. The Bears run game had one good drive and it was the 17-play drive to tie it. GB offense had just gone 3-and-out, quick TD drive, 3-and-out, so GBs defense was gassed overall.



@The_Schnaaa @Peter_Bukowski Definitely. They kept saying he wasn’t a top 5 QB (packer fans!) but couldn’t give me 4 QBs they’d rather have than him. That floater has had the same effect as vintage Favre (no no no no no…YES!!!).



I have a buddy who believes this same thing very strongly, and he's evangelized me to his side. Make QBs Throw It In Bounds Again.

The dumbest thing I keep seeing people say is that Notre Dames has a “take my ball and go home” attitude. The playoff was home. They did not decide to go home. They were sent home, by the AD of Arkansas, a team they beat the fuck out of. Pls stop - you sound incredibly stupid.

So folks at @espn are upset ND isn’t playing in a bowl game after weeks of folks politicking against the lack of conference affiliation, using them as a pawn for their CFB playoff selection show, having the ACC network play the UM/ND game on repeat for 48 hours during Conf Champ week BUT now it’s a bad look they don’t want to serve ESPN’s best interest by playing in an exhibition bowl game? Got it.

Clark Lea did not blame anyone besides themselves with CFP. Says they had chances at Alabama and Texas “That’s no one’s fault except our own. We had our opportunities and we didn’t do enough. We are not victims in this process. Our ownership is in coming up short…” @chrislee70

Great Message for young people: Stand up for yourself and don’t let people take advantage of you.

Nobody wants to see Oklahoma vs Alabama again

Y'all are hypocrites on ND opting out... If your company told you for weeks you'd be getting a promotion as long as you showed up and did your job...only to give it to someone else at the last minute they said was inferior...would you show up to the optional Christmas party?

The only thing this is going to do is piss Marcus Freeman off. The Irish are going to be out for revenge next season. Notre Dame will win the 2027 National Championship.

We could disband your conference if we chose to with a snap of our fingers. ND leaves the partnership and ABC/ESPN would rip up the current TV deal. Clemson and FSU would have a better case in court to get out of their deal. Be more grateful.
