I'm genuinely worried Jordan Love is going to play the Packers into the tank bowl finals.

Watching the Panthers game. They need to lose this for the Bears' sake.

I hate to say it, but I think Bryce Young is starting to put it together. He's still pretty mediocre, but he's definitely grown from the train wreck he was early on.

[Tryptamine]

Will Levis is having a really good game. 15/23 188 3TD 0INT.

I did not think coming into the season that Tommy DeVito would get an NFL TD less than halfway through the season

I thought the same thing watching his "every throw" video last week.  There's definitely something there.

He needs to speed up and react to pressure better.  His protection sucks but a good QB can play through that.

A little Packers pixie dust.  Cousins done on a non contact injury.

[Tryptamine]

The Giants are 1 quarter away from doing something that likely hasn't been done since the invention of the forward pass. They have a total of -8 passing yards and they're winning 10-7 against the Jets.

New QB immediately fumbles inside their own 10 and it's recovered by GB. I swear there is some higher power that loves the Packers.

Even the pixie dust can’t save the Packers right now.

Well, It sure looks like Cousins will be out for the rest of the year. You can actually see his Achilles roll up to his calf.

I turned off jets giants after Wilson ate a completely avoidable sack on 4th and 10 under two minutes to go.  No idea how they got the ball back to send it to ot.

[Soul]

It’s disconcerting to know such a serious injury can happen with just a bad step.

In spite of, not because of

Jets are kind of an interesting bears comp.  Their defense was brutal under saleh the first year, even worse than Bears last year.  Started to turn it around a few games into year 2, again like bears this year.

Knee-jerk reactions are common about young players.

I don’t like Wilson as the long term QB of the Jets, draft Cameron Ward next year I say, but more dislike this either/or style of evaluation for young-er players at the position. It’s not pretty now but he’s showing he can start in this league for a competitive team and that may be more Valuable to his long term prospects as a healthy 24 YO on a rookie deal than raw stats to date. Rams, 49ers, Vikings etc will line up to give up a high pick after 2024 if the Jets keep winning 

29th in QBR and and 30th in rating. I find it hard to believe he's showing he can start in this league.

[Soul]

Now Purdy is playing more like he was drafted.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I thought we got win-scouting QBs out of our system with Tebow.  

I didn't see what he apparently did at the end to be magic because I turned it off after he took a miserable sack on 4th down and I assumed the Giants would kneel it out.  But he sure looked awful in the part of the game I watched.

denver is somehow going to beat kc which is good for draft positioning

Swift wasn’t there, obviously that’s why.
