I’ve grown to be less angry about the Calvin catch and more angry about that phantom DPI call against the Lions late in that wildcard game against Dallas.

Those two + the Jim Schwartz challenge flag on Thanksgiving + the clock having to run out because the refs made a mistake are my Mount Rushmore of pain

To be fair Love also looked great in a real game versus the eagles and the Eagles were up by just enough they still had to try.

Defense got shattered in that game though

I'm excited for this season, but in a very different way than I was excited for the back nine on Rodgers's career. There's barely any expectations and a fuckton of potential -- that's a very different feeling than expecting 12 wins and a trip to the conference championship or else it's another wasted season.

I wish I saved the tweet because I can’t remember the name of the old lovely qb, but he broke down the play where Love missed a wide open Musgrave. It’s a great breakdown and Musgrave was actually wide open because Love had looked off the zone linebacker enough where that guy went the wrong way. Love just overdid it too much and couldn’t make an accurate throw across his body as he faced the other direction.

Kyler Gordon has decided that he cannot cover so instead he's going to leave them wide open and just lay them out and hope they drop it. 50/50

It will be on ESPN 1000 for the entire season since 780 didn't renew their rights.

We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
What would y'all put the odds of Love's potential outcomes at? We've seen a couple of spot starts and several preseason games over the past couple of years, so I feel like we have a bit of information to work off of.

- 10% odds of becoming a terrible bust (wash out of the league)
- 30% odds of becoming a normal bust (career as backup)
- 25% odds of becoming a disappointing starter (below-average)
- 15% odds of becoming an okay starter (average)
- 10% odds of becoming a good starter (above-average)
- 5% odds of becoming an elite starter (top-8)
- 5% odds of injury-ruined career (true for basically every player)

He's right. Just imagine how much more satisfying that TD would have been if it was a screen behind the fullback
