Pigskin Rehab

Football is crazy.

Or maybe it's just me.

How would I know? You know, assuming I am, in fact, crazy.

Pigskin Agony

Games like last night are the kind that will send fans straight through the five stages of grief directly to acceptance.

The New England Patriots of 2022 are not a playoff team.

The Fires of Mount Pigskin

The NFL. 

It's a long, hard slog to Mordor and when it's over, you're lucky to have most of your fingers and toes. I'm just glad I never started chewing my fingernails or I'd constantly be cleaning blood off the keyboard.

Pigskin Leftovers

That was disappointing.

Hey! I thought Kirk Cousins was supposed to suck in prime time games.

Hmm. Maybe counting on your opponent to suck isn't the best of strategies.

Pigskin Thanks

When someone says, "If the playoffs started today…", are they doing it as a charm, or as a suspected omen?

Like a kind of, "Can you believe this team is in the playoffs?" thing?

Yeah. That sounds about right.

They Still Call It Football

 Well, it appears the New England Patriots, after some self-care and introspection during their bye week, did as many suspected they would, and simplified their approach to the game, completely eliminating the offense from their game plans.

Pigskin Perspective

So, yeah, it's one of those "the fate of western civilization hangs in the balance" kind of games this week.

I know it is, because it's one of those "the fate of western civilization hangs in the balance" kind of games every week.
