Blake Bortles is officially back

So my who's back of the week is Blake Bortles of the Blake Bortles Wikipedia Club. Huge game. Four touchdowns. He's back.

Bortles actually led the Jaguars to the AFC Championship game in the 2017 season, making this take arguably correct for the context of that specific season.

The NFL intentionally delivers its most entertaining games when its back is against the wall

Just so happens, the NFL had the most entertaining slate of games in years. Maybe a call? On the weekend where they perhaps needed it more than ever. Maybe [Commissioner] David Stern made the call.

This is a subjective conspiracy theory about game entertainment levels being manipulated by the league office.

Joe Flacco is officially no longer elite and stinks

I think Flacco stinks. Are we now worried that Joe Flacco's eliteness is so far behind us that we will never remember that he was once elite?

Flacco's 2017 season was poor (18 TDs, 13 INTs) and he was eventually replaced by Lamar Jackson. His 'elite' status never returned.

Ben Roethlisberger has the worst body in America

Is Big Ben hurt? Well, yes. So he's always in a constant state. His body is never good... Big Ben, as the crow flies, has probably the worst body in general of anyone in America. Name me anybody with a shittier body.

This is a subjective and hyperbolic comedic comparison of bodies in America.

Roman Anthony is a defensive liability for the Red Sox because everyone is successfully running on him in left field.

Roman Anthony, world baseball classic hero. But he has been, he's become a meme basically. If he can't, he just can't throw anyone out from left field. Everyone's just running on Roman. Shane tried to tell me he was great last year, but he was playing right field. Now he's playing left field... it's just not good.

Whether a player is a 'liability' is subjective, though defensive stats can provide some evidence over time.

AJ Brown will be traded to the New England Patriots

[AJ Brown is] gone no matter what... New England. [In my] unbiased mind, he's still gone.

AJ Brown was not traded to the Patriots in the immediate aftermath of these rumors.

UConn can't win the championship

I hope UConn can get it done. I don't think they can win it all.

UConn was in the 2026 Final Four. Resolution depends on whether UConn won the championship.
