Three Things to Watch This Week - Super Bowl LII

The defending Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots play Carson Wentz Nick Foles and the Philadelphia Eagles at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Sunday February 4th at 6:30 PM.

One way or another, this feels like this might be the last night of the dynasty.  So enjoy it while you can (although I've said that 8 or 12 times before.  We're in uncharted waters here.  So... who the heck knows?)

 I'm cautiously optimistic about our chances on Sunday.  But I really hope both teams have a good time.

Thanks again for coming along for the ride.  It's been an entertaining season.




Lot of Smooth Criminal type leaning action in the AFC Championship Game.

Olivia Power Rankings:

1) (fictional pig)

2) Wilde

3) (Twelfth Night)

4) Voldaren

5) d'Abo

6) Newton-John


Game balls to Trey Flowers, Stephon Gilmore and Danny Amendola for their work in the AFC Championship game victory over Jacksonville.  Great effort!


Here's three things I'm looking forward to watching Sunday night:

1) Dion Lewis - Lewis has been a little streaky in the playoffs.  I would like to see a little more consistency.  BUT... He did seal the game against the Jags with that long run though.  That was awfully thoughtful of him.

2) Rob Gronkowski - Gronk good?  Head OK?  Gronk play.

3) James White - If we could get a Super Bowl 51 type performance out of White, that would be nice.  I'd be happy with that.


Did Phillip Dorsett have a catch in the AFC Championship game?  Yes!

I love a good flea flicker.  I get irrationally tingly in the 1/2 second of time between when I realize what's happening and when the pass is thrown.  So exciting!


My prediction: Pats 34, Eagles 24

 *****

 This week we have Lord Humungus filling for Fake Bill Belichick.


WELCOME TO THE FROZEN WASTELAND OF MINNESOTA.  I HOPE BY NOW YOU HAVE ALL HAD THE CHANCE TO PURIFY YOURSELVES IN THE WATERS OF LAKE MINNETONKA.  VERY INVIGORATING.

I HEAR THE PATRIOTS OF THE NEW ENGLAND REGION WILL HAVE A NUMBER OF COACHING VACANCIES AFTER THIS SEASON.

I SUBMIT MYSELF AS A CANDIDATE FOR THE OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR / STRENGTH COACH / DESTRUCTIVE BATTLE SIEGE PLANNER.

I WILL ALSO NOT BE WEARING A SHIRT FOR THE ENTIRITY OF GAME THIS SUNDAY.

(short pause)

WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S A DOMED STADIUM?  WHY WOULD A COLD WEATHER TEAM GIVE UP SUCH STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE IN BATTLE?

UGH.  FINE.  I WEAR A SWEATSHIRT.

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? Dad Rock Jam of the Week Faith No More - Falling to Pieces Did the Patriots score 20 points last week?  My brothers and sisters in The Force, you know they did not. My predict...
