More NFL teams should utilize downfield laterals like they do in rugby

I actually thought I thought it was a good idea. I think that more team should do downfield laterals. It happens in rugby all the time. And if you if you can hit somebody in stride, it's usually a touchdown.

Opinion Football Medium Subjective

The strategy remains rare in the NFL due to the high risk of turnovers, though teams like the Chiefs have occasionally used it successfully in the years following this take.

The atmosphere at Audi Field for the DC Defenders was better than any Redskins game in the last 20 years

I'm going to say like the atmosphere in DC at Audi Field was better. It was more fun than any Redskins game that I've been to in the last like 20 years.

Hot Take Football Hot Subjective

This is subjective but captures the sentiment of the time when DC fans were desperate for an alternative to Dan Snyder's ownership.

The real test for the XFL's success will be when March Madness and the NBA playoffs begin

I don't know if it's going to succeed because as I've always said, tell me how it does when we get to March Madness, when we get to the Masters and NBA and NHL playoffs. But as of right now, I thought it was good.

Prediction Football Mild Subjective

The 2020 XFL season was actually cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic in March, so the league never actually faced this competition fairly.

This is officially Duke's year after their miracle win against UNC

It is officially Duke's year. It is officially Duke's year. It is. Yeah, and maybe Gonzaga because Gonzaga keeps—Gonzaga had their classic game where they play every year, they play St. Mary's and everyone's like this is the one spot they could lose and they just fucking kick the shit out of them.
