I am leaving Twitter, here’s why…

Jason Pauley “This isn’t an airport, no need to announce your departure”. This common social media quip is what some of you might be thinking as you roll your eyes about me writing an entire blog post over quitting a social media platform. Particularly someone as insignificant as me, @jaydpauley…

A comparison of Don Hutson, Elroy Hirsch, Charley Hennigan, Jerry Rice, and Calvin Johnson’s record-breaking receiving yard seasons (+ Cooper Kupp’s close call in 2021)

Jason Pauley In 2021, Cooper Kupp almost broke the receiving yards record (but didn’t). Along the way to almost breaking the record, most social media threads and conversations were peppered with the caveat that he had 17 games to do it. Calvin Johnson still owns the record with 1,964 in…

Stop supporting the NFL if you want but don’t talk about soccer as the virtuous option. Soccer is also really bad.

In light of the recent tragedy regarding Damar Hamlin’s collapse on the field during the Monday night game. One of the recurring sentiments I’m seeing on social media is comparing the Bad NFL to the Good soccer. I’m not going to tell you to remove blame from the NFL. As…

Is winning close games in the NFL “luck”?

Jason Pauley This has been a big season for Pythagoras and his wins.

Week-one in the NFL: overreact, underreact, or just react?

by Jason Pauley What happens to teams the remainder of the season after a loss or win in week one? I’m convinced, as most of you probably are, that there is nothing magical about week-one. It’s 5.9% of the season, just like week two or week three. And my hunch…
