And now this week's edition of The NFL In So Many Words, the Blob's sentimental walk dow short-term memory lane of which critics have said "Remember when we could just forget this?", and also "A feature sure to make you long for traumatic amnesia":
1. "Remember when we were a Super Bowl team?" (The Rams, after getting smoked like a Virginia ham by the Titans and the 49ers)
2. "Remember when the Rams were supposed to smoke us like a Virginia ham?" (The 49ers)

4. "Remember when everyone said we were trash now, and Patrick Mahomes couldn't play anymore?" (The Chiefs, and Patrick Mahomes, after Mahomes threw five touchdown passes in the Chiefs' 41-14 dismantling of the Raiders)
5. "Remember when we were good? Like, last week?" (The Browns, the Steelers, the Broncos, the Buccaneers)

7. "Remember when I was the legendary Mike White, media darling?" (Jets quarterback Mike White, who threw four picks and had a QBR of 27.7 in the Jets' doleful 45-17 loss to the Bills)
8. "Remember when we were winless, and the worst team in the history of football?" (The Lions, after tying the Steelers in overtime)
