Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 4

 The New England Patriots play Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday October 4th at 4:25 PM Monday October 5th at 7:05 PM*.

*lots of last minute changes this week, due to the somewhat unpredictable nature of life.



Bill's Dog might have had a good draft. 13/10.

Homes Power Rankings:


1) Ma-

2) Wild 

3) -chooled

4) for sale in your area

5) Better _____ and Gardens


Here are three things I like so far this season:

1) The running game. I complained about Rex Burkhead last week, and I gotta say, the dude had the game of his life against Oakland Vegas. Even Sony Michel had a great game. However, as my buddy Pittsburgh Joel put it, the Raiders "seriously suck at run defense." So I guess that's the other side of that coin.

2) The defense. Not great. They'll be tested this week, for sure. And definitely exploitable. But... halfway decent considering the amount of turnover this off season.

3) Cam Freakin' Newton. Watching Cam has been a lot of fun. Exceeds all expectations. 

...and now he's sick. Oh farts. Looks like Brian Hoyer is getting the start tonight. "Hoyer, who is 0-10 in his past 10 starts..."

OoooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooof.

Hang tight, people. This one could get ugly. Conversely, maybe tonight would be a good time to read a book or play a board game with family members.


Did N'Keal Harry fumble the ball out of the endzone last week?

No!


My prediction: Patriots 11, Chiefs 134

***  

This week we have Fake Bill's Dog Nike filling for Fake Bill Belichick.

Dateline: Nantucket.

I gotta say, life here on the island is pretty good. Even in quarantine. I have no complaints. I was already set up to work from home. And I don't wear pants anyway, so that doesn't affect me.

Bill sometimes comes out in the Summer. Sometimes he doesn't. When he does, we watch film together.

I had to cancel my trip to the Vineyard in July. But no big deal. Besides, I hear they have sharks.

Just don't ask me to pose for any more Christmas cards this year. I'm done with that nonsense.

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?
