• Rodgers is averaging 6.8 yards per attempt, 23rd in the NFL between Geno Smith and Tua Tagovailoa. It's the third-worst mark of Rodgers' career, with last year's performance for the Jets in last place. • Rodgers is 23rd in passing success rate, between Jacoby Brissett (a backup) and Spencer Rattler (who was benched by the worst team in the league.) It's the second-worst season of Rodgers' career. • Rodgers is throwing interceptions at a 2.6 percent rate, the sixth-highest in the league, between Bryce Young and his fellow Old, Joe Flacco. That's the worst rate of Rodgers' career. • Only 68.9 percent of Rodgers' passes are on target, per Pro Football Reference. That's 23rd in the league and Rodgers' worst mark since PF-Ref began tracking the stat in 2018. • Rodgers' average depth of target is 6.2 yards per attempt, o the lowest of 39 qualifying quarterbacks and the lowest of Rodgers' career, per Pro Football Focus. While average depth of target is not an indicator of QB quality, the fact that the former gunslinger is attempting easier passes than ever and still missing at a higher rate than ever and throwing picks at a higher rate than ever is bad. • Rodgers is 25th in EPA per play, between Carson Wentz and Michael Penix, according to SumerSports. I don't really have anything to add besides "between Carson Wentz and Michael Penix."

sending the opposite of a Go Cats
"The thing that became clear from this latest episode - if it wasn't already clear - is that Bill Pulte doesn't know the first fucking thing about how the mortgage markets operate, " one of the two people said. "After publicly humiliating the president with his moronic 50 year mortgage plan it's safe to assume that his days are numbered." A slew of experts also panned the idea. "Trump isn't just Pulte's biggest ally in the admin, he is perhaps his only friend," said one person familiar with their dynamic. "During Trump 2.0, the last time anything got as much pushback as this was over the 'Epstein Files.' MAGA is furious."

“This is a response to something entirely unrelated”
This is a response to controversy at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, where two boxers, Algeria's Imane Khelif and Taiwan's Lin Yu-Ting, won gold medals despite being disqualified from the 2023 World Championships for allegedly failing gender eligibility tests. Both fighters have repeatedly said they are women and there is no suggestion that either is transgender. The row about their eligibility brought the fierce debate about transgender women competing in female sports event to an even wider audience than it already had.

they added it to the NFL rulebook this offseason (red font means it's a new rule)
the unsportsmanlike conduct rule includes a sentence that bans "Any violent gesture, which shall include, but not be limited to, a throat slash, simulating firing or brandishing a gun, or using the “nose wipe” gesture, or an act that is sexually suggestive or offensive."

a lot made about how kickers are hitting from 70 now but punters are also the best they've ever been. look at the all-time career yards per punt leaderboard

(bold players are active)
13 of the top 14 players on the leaderboard are bold, including all-time leader A.J. Cole, the player Mina was talking about

headline: Paul DePodesta defends Browns' research on Deshaun Watson "This has been the most detailed and dogged potential acquisition of a player that I've ever witnessed," DePodesta said. "I mean, now in 25-plus years across two different sports, I've never been a part of anything like it. "As we got more and more information through all the steps that we took, all the diligence that we that we undertook, all the people we talked to and all the additional information we got and especially the perspectives we got from some of the different people involved or much more involved with him, ultimately got to the same place... where we were really comfortable with the person."
