The defending Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots play Philip Rivers and the San Diego Los Angeles Chargers at Gillette Stadium on Sunday October 29th at 1:00 PM.


We get it.  You vape.


Mash Power Rankings:

1) -ed potatoes

2) monster

3) (movie)

4) bill

5) dastardly 


We lost Hightower for the season?  Farts.

With inclement weather in the forecast for Sunday, let's focus on the ground game this week:

1) Dion Lewis - I've never seen anyone cut and change direction as fast as he can.

2) James White - He's been fantastic on third downs.  He's like that third bowl of porridge for this offense.  Juuuuust right.

3) Rex Burkhead - Is this the week Burkhead has his breakout game?  Maybe!


My prediction:  Patriots 27, Chargers 24

This year, we're going to have regular contributions from Fake Bill Belichick for your reading pleasure.


Arrrgh!  It be me, the Dread Pirate Bill.

The only thing I love more than winning Super Bowls and watching film (and dating your moms) is... CANDY! 

Some people will tell you 65 is too old to be going out for candy on Halloween. But those people are not your friends.

I'd fight a moose barehanded for a Kit Kat.  (Moose - the REAL most deadliest game.)

Have you ever gotten through an extra long film sessions without crushing a king sized bag of peanut M&Ms?

Matty P. keeps a drawer full of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in his office.  I've been known to go on the occasional late night raid.

Brady won't touch sugar.  Who wants to live like that?  He doesn't know what he's missing.

I'm going to have a sugar hangover all next week.  Totally worth it.

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 2

The New England Patriots play Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks at Gillette Stadium on Sunday September 15th at 1:00 PM. Rhamondre was running through dudes. Considering how low my expectations were for week 1 and the season in general, I'm going to classify that first game as "delightful". Can you win with a conservative, run first offense and an aggressive defense in 2024? Maybe! HBO David Show Runners Power Rankings: 1) Chase 2) Simon 3) Milch 4) Larry 5) Benioff Here are three things that were pretty good in week 1: 1) Rhamondre Stevenson - Game ball for Stevenson. I know we're in an era where the running game has been deprecated, but he's an absolute beast. 2) Jacoby Brissett - He's never going to blow anyone away, but just being "steady" and "adequate" felt like a huge improvement over what we saw last season. 3) The offensive line took a huge leap from what we saw in the pre-season. Thanks, David Andrews! Dad Rock Jam of the Week ...

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 6

The 1 - 4 New England Patriots play C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans at Gillette Stadium on Sunday October 13th at 1:00 PM. They really should stop buttering the ball between plays. That Patriots - Dolphins game last week was one of the worst things I've ever seen. Let's never speak of it again. The Patriots have announced third overall pick Drake Maye as the starting quarterback this week. I feel like it's too soon. But it's not my job on the line. I'll be nice and cozy on the couch with snacks and beverages and a dog that will pick the absolute worst time to decide that he has to go out. Drake Power Rankings: 1) 's Cakes 2) (the duck)  3) (the singer from Canada) 4) Gilded 5) Maye Here are three things that could have been better in week 5: 1) Jacoby Brissett. Thank you for your contributions. I appreciate your effort. I'm not sure how you're still standing. 2) The play calling had me scratching my head on multiple occasions. 3) The whole WR position...

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 4

The 1 - 2 New England Patriots play Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers at Levi's Stadium on Sunday September 29th at 4:05 PM. I would very much like to go back to watching fancy football. We're downgrading this team from "surprisingly frisky" to "potentially another lost season" after last week. There's just too far to go for this offense. Watch this space for additional updates Wilson Power Rankings: 1) How to with John 2) Luke 3) Thomas F. 4) Ann and Nancy 5) Marco 6) Eugene 7) Pickett 8) The Volleyball 9) Patrick 10) Owen 11) Rita Here are three things that I did not care for in week 3: 1) Poor Jacoby Brissett is getting absolutely beat up out there. I feel for the guy.  We have not put him in a good situation. 2) Punts. So many punts. 3) Aaron Rodgers. Maybe not dead yet?
