A few brief thoughts on NFL Week 1

And now the little anticipated return of the NFL In So Many Words, the hardy Blob perennial of which critics have said "Good God, what's that smell?", and also "Hardy! Why does it have to be hardy?":

1. "Good God, what's that smell?" (Broncos fans after watching their team lose two fumbles at the 1-yard line and bungle a final drive in which it had three timeouts and yet somehow burned the clock down to nothing, leading to a missed 64-yard field goal attempt and a 17-16 loss to the cruddy Seattle Seahawks)

2. "Good God, what's that smell?" (Colts fans after watching their team bungle its way to a 20-20 tie with the cruddy Houston Texans)

3. "Good God, what's that smell?" (49ers fans after watching Trey Lance, the quarterback to whom Niners management seems pathologically attached, slosh around in the rain in a 19-10 loss to the Bears)

4. "That smell? It's the sweet smell of success, baby!" (Bears fans, apparently unaware their team only beat Trey Lance)

5. Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes!

6. Still leads Josh Allen in commercials, and also is still Patrick Mahomes. See: 44-21 over the Cardinals.

7. "Hey, what about me?" (Josh Allen, after the Bills thrashed the defending Super Bowl champion Rams 31-10)

8. "Ha! Hahahaha HA!" (Browns fans, after their team beat the revenge out of Baker Mayfield and Carolina)

9. "Ha! Hahahaha HA!" (Vikings fans after their team beat Aaron Rodgers and the Packers like a dozen egg whites)

10. "Good God! What's that smell?" (Aaron Rodgers, re his receivers)
