No more dread.

Adios to the Pels and Willie Green.

I am now dreading a horrific 4th quarter collapse.
Wow this Pelicans team reeks.

The whole crux of Seahawks fans hating Greg Olsen is because he criticized the 2020 offense and how it operated, even though the collapse of it led to Schotty getting fired.

The Seahawks are not only No. 1 in play action by EPA they're No. 1 by a mile.

Whatever that bullshit was last year was abominable.
from @benjaminsolak.bsky.social's latest espn post. obviously some sample size going on here but lmao. i thought that kubiak would make the play action game much better than grubb, but pull out some stats like this and you just laugh.

This feels relevant.

The Packers have a lot of young dudes on the team, but they lack DUDES to be an elite squad.

Aikman is disgusted by Jordan Love's performance.

The Packers are out of a playoff spot if they lose tonight, by the way.

Lol the tweet broke contain thankfully I muted notifications.

Fine. Darnold's INT% is the exact same as Geno's was last year. It's just that he's got a higher TD% and uh, well, better stats everywhere else.

But the turnovers did not go down, whether it's "his fault" or not!
The masses on the other app got mad when I noted Darnold has turned it over as many times through 9 games as Geno.

Of course I know context and blah blah Sam has been amazing but I can bad faith with the best of them.

They actually interviewed him on the Lions-Commanders broadcast lmaooooo

Hard to ignore how much better the run game immediately got with Olu.

The insanely stupid 24-20 win over the Cardinals is going to be electrifying with Kevin Harlan on the call.

Correct! Guys like Witherspoon, JSN, Love, Nwosu, Hall, Leonard Williams, Reed, etc. were brought in after Pete left…
They were 18th in points and 14th in yards. LIterally mid, not horrible. Amazing transformation to this year working through the bad Pete roster choices.
November 7, 2025 at 6:48 AM
I have it on reasonably good authority that he wasn't a Pete priority.
Like, they were a bad team with the 6th pick....and literally drafted a RB...in 2025. This is why the roster sucks

Chip was a revolutionary those first few years but that's as far as he got at an NFL level.
I can't believe how wrong I was on Chip. Raiders need to win the Mike McDaniel or Stefanski OC sweepstakes and run a professional operation. If Spytek wants to move off Geno, fine, but there's still enough there on the roster to be moving the ball way better than this
November 7, 2025 at 4:36 AM
I choose to pretend that Pete's coaching career ended on MNF against the Eagles.

This Raiders stint is actively embarrassing because while the roster sucks, he's doing almost nothing to make them look discernibly different from the McDaniels and Pierce teams.

you used to have to beg john to send a 3rd round pick to Cincinnati for 45 year old Carlos Dunlap to be your best pass rusher and now he's paying 37 year old DeMarcus Lawrence 15 per to be your 6th best pass rusher

The other app mass-banning Old BirdDeck users may be one of the biggest drivers to BlueSky imaginable.

Two months after a near-fatal infection, a near-fatal in-hospital accident, I am spending my birthday with my dad in his recovery facility. If all goes well, he'll be home with me this month, but with a long road ahead for full recovery.

Haven't given an update in awhile, but that's the update.
All alone in the waiting room with my thoughts and hopes of some good news.

When you consider how quickly nausea subsides, it's no surprise Zohran is popular.

Definitely thought this was about the CFP rankings on ESPN.
even the most brain poisoned zoomer shithead is not watching more than 32 seconds of this

Grand takes off of odd-year elections don't mean a whole lot to me, to be honest. Not when this place has the collective memory of a goldfish.
