It's Baaaaaaaack

Football season is OFFICIALLY here. Yes I said officially a full 5 days after the Patriots got curb stomped by the Chiefs on Thursday night football. First off:

  • I don't care about the Patriots
  • That the Patriots PERFECT SEASON is already over is hilarious
  • That the BILLS(and the Lions) have a better record than the Patriots is priceless
  • If my team ain playing it ain real yet
  • Having the same record as the Cowboys is more of an issue to me
Look, I don't count preseason as real football because HALF of those guys(or damn near) won't even be on the team first game. Jordan Matthews, gone(which was a surprise), Jon Dorenbos GONE(but hopefully recovering from his heart surgery. He's a good dude and a Philly Favorite). Until it's kick off time first game, you see the flyover and the GIANT American flags all over your TV football ain here yet. The games mean nothing, you went Undefeated in preseason: "haha aiight, now what ain no preseason Superbowl everybody was 0-0 last night."  Plus the first game is always crazy, I mean it is nice to see former Eagles have good luck in their new homes(as long as it ain against us) Two Eagles are reunited(though I don't know if Jordan and Shady played together at all). Jeremy Maclin looked like a beast for Baltimore, and Djax will be fine WHENEVER Tampa and the rest of the Florida teams can get back on the field. Real Life is more important than football. I hope everyone in Florida is safe I know Irma has wobbled back and forth power is out for millions of people football will be here.
As for my team the game was "Damn Sloppy" we had two turnovers, one was a bad play call, Laterals in football ALMOST never work. And when they do rarely are they big reward plays. As for the tipped pass that turned into an INT, tipped balls are tipped balls nothing you can do about that. THAT DEFENSE THOUGH. 3 forced fumbles, an interception on the goal line, and while I think Washington had more rushing yards than us, it was mainly because Kirk Cousins was running for DEAR LIFE. We had some injuries on the defense, the turf monster is just as undefeated as father time somebody is going to roll an ankle, hurt a leg, a finger, something. They gave up 10 points(I know what the score was a tipped pass interception that turns into a TD Pick Six what we call them is not on the Defense, well I guess the EXTRA POINT might be so 11) if you tell me that with THAT OFFENSE that looks like it will score mid 20's all season that the defense will only give up 10 points book those playoff tickets now. Okay that doesn't mean it's gonna be an all season thing. And yes Washington had a bunch of new parts to figure out just like we did. The guys who had already been there accounted for a good 80% of the yards receiving. Chemistry will grow though, and once Carson gets a rhythm with Alshon Jefferey and Torrey Smith it's over. Plus it looks like Nelson Agholor may fit in better in the slot instead of the outside if he can hold onto the ball, well catch it in the first place, he will fit right in.

My only complaint, which considering our coach is an Andy Disciple I shouldn't be surprised, is that we didn't run the ball enough. WE will need a better RUN/PASS ratio to make it out of the season in good shape. Those are just my quick thoughts, missed tackles happen. Defensive players dropping INT's happen, you leave a game with 4 turnovers up 2 in the differential you did your job well.
