I’ve already said my piece on the toxic discussion about Caleb Williams’ emotional reaction to his hamstring injury, and I don’t feel like I have much more to add. That said, since I called out the idiotic former players and talking heads that talked trash about Williams being too “extra” about a hamstring strain, let me shout out ex-Bear Kyle Long for being a real one.2. The rash of injuries to young quarterbacks this past week was brutal. At this point, the world just has it out for Jayden Daniels, who dislocated his elbow on a freak play. It feels like RG3 all over again as far as the excitement of Daniels’ rookie year being completely ruined by bad luck and shaky health afterward. Then, Jaxson Dart goes down with a knee injury that, after initially seemed manageable, looks like it could be season-ending—after having put up a stunning Week 1 performance against the Dallas Cowboys. Plus, you’re taking Williams and Tyson Bagent from us this week? Hate it.3. Has any football player of this past generation been more insufferable than Aaron Rodgers? Seriously, this might be my question of the week to answer in the comments below. Because how are you going to play like that and then take shots st the coaching staff? Especially when you turned the ball over twice? We’re not going to act like Mike McCarthy is some kind of savant at this point in his career. But his longtime quarterback’s lack of self-awareness and reflection will never cease to amaze me. I’d say, “Just retire already,” but I’m also kind of enjoying him realizing in real time that he’s bad while being unable to admit or acknowledge it.4. Maybe it really was Eric Bieniemy all along. Okay, but really: the Kansas City Chiefs look like a rejuvenated offense even with Patrick Mahomes still finding his footing post-ACL injury. I wasn’t sure how much stock I should put in Kenneth Walker coming into this season, given how the Chiefs struggled last year even with Mahomes. But apparently I didn’t buy nearly enough. I guess all KC needed was to get Matt Nagy away from the offensive coordinator spot.5. I’m sorry, you can’t make me take the Raiders seriously with this 2-0 start. It’s just not going to happen. (Though maybe they’ll be better than I expected in an AFC West that looks way less mighty than in years past with the Chargers back to Chargering.) But you have to admit, this is an absolute dream scenario for the Fernando Mendoza development plan Vegas hoped to implement. Plenty of teams love the idea of drafting a kid and sitting him all season only to see the plan implode within three games because the veteran starter is awful. So far, Kirk Cous
