Good morning! Apropos of nothing, here’s Dragonforce.

Let’s talk about Noah Brown, folks. The dude was a 7th round pick who spent five seasons with the Cowgirls doing absolutely nothing (with the exception of a decent year in 2022, after Amari Cooper was traded away). Then he signs with the Texans and promptly gets hurt, starting off the season on injured reserve. Fast forward… Noah Brown had 153 yards last week and 172 yard this week, and based on current stats, he’s projected to have 829 total yards this season. And with Nico Collins projected to have 1,192 yards and Tank Dell projected to have 963 yards (and with C.J. Stroud kicking ass and taking names), we could feasibly end up with three 1,000 yard receivers this year. That’s friggin’ bananas.

Also, a big shout out to Devin Singletary and his 150 rushing yards yesterday.

Wanna be a baller, shot caller,
Twenty-inch blades on the Impala,
Call her, gettin’ laid tonight,
Swisher rolled tight, got sprayed by Ike.
I hit the highway, making money the fly way,
But there’s got to be a better way!
A better way, better way, yeah.

Bryce Young (after eight games)
1,375 yards, 8 TDs, 7 INTs, 26 sacks, 77.1 rating

C.J. Stroud (after eight games)
2,270 yards, 14 TDs, 1 INT, 18 sacks, 102.9 rating

Happy Chaos Never Dies Day to all those who celebrate, especially the parents!

Okay folks, here’s a discussion question: As of today, Nico Collins has a total of 631 receiving yards and four touchdowns, averaging 78.9 yards per game; meanwhile, Tank Dell has a total of 454 receiving yards and four touchdowns, averaging 64.9 yards per game. Which one of these two will be our leading receiver (in yardage) by the end of the season? Who will have the most touchdowns?

Happy 80th birthday to Stephen Greenblatt, world-famous Shakespearean scholar and author of at least two of the books I used while obtaining my masters degree, Will in the World: How Shakespeare Became Shakespeare and Hamlet in Purgatory.
