A few brief thoughts on NFL Week 3

And now this week's edition of The NFL In So Many Words, the incorrigible Blob feature of which critics have said "Well, I declare! You are just incorrigible!", and also "How did you become so incorrigible? I knew your mama, and your MAMA sure didn't raise you that way!":

1. And then, children, what do you suppose happened next? That's right! The Lions Lions-ed it up again ...

2. "A record 66-yard game-winning field goal that HIT THE CROSSBAR AND BOUNCED OVER? What's next, Matthew Stafford throwing four touchdown passes for the Rams to beat the Super Bowl champion Buccaneers?" (Lions fans)

3. "Heh." (Matthew Stafford, after throwing four touchdown passes for the Rams to beat the Super Bowl champion Buccaneers)

4. "Heh, heh." (The ghost of Bobby Layne, as in The Curse Of)

5. The Bucs lost. The Chiefs lost. Jameis Winston beat the Patriots in Foxborough. The Bengals be-

6. "Wait a minute! Jameis Winston did WHAT?" (America)

7. In other news, Aaron "OK, I Guess I'll Play If I HAVE To" Rodgers saved the Packers again, completing two deep passes to Davante Adams to set up Mason Crosby's game-winning field goal against the 49ers.

8. "Wait, I thought he quit. Didn't he quit?" (49ers fans)

9. Also in other news, Carson Wentz, playing on two sprained ankles, did not grow a third ankle and sprain it against the Titans.

10. Of course, the Colts still lost.
