A few brief thoughts on NFL Week 3

 And now this week's edition of The NFL In So Many Words, the stroll-down-memory-lane Blob feature of which critics have said "I wish this was a memory," and also "Remember when the internet was a force for good and crap like this?":

1. "Remember when we were supposed to be good?" (Joe Burrow, after his Bengals fell to 0-3 with a loss to Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders -- aka, "Yet another home loss that shouldn't have have been a home loss.")

2. "Remember when people said Caleb Williams was the best quarterback in the 2024 draft?" (Jayden Daniels)

3. In other news, the Saints!

4. Put their Super Bowl reservations on hold after the Eagles held them to 12 points and beat them in New Orleans, 15-12.

5. "Remember when we scored, like, nine gazillion points against the Panthers and Cowboys? Good times, man. Gooood times." (The Saints)

6. "Remember when this was OUR year? Again?" (The Cowboys after losing at home to the Ravens to drop to 1-2)

7. "Remember when I played defense and gave up 36 points to the crummy Panthers?" (Raiders QB Gardner Minshew, whom head coach Antonio Pierce hinted might be benched because the Raiders defense gave up 36 points to the Panthers in a 36-22 loss.)

8. "Remember when everyone said I was terrible and the Bears had to move on from me? Good times, man. Gooood times." (Justin Fields, after quarterbacking the 3-0 Steelers to another win)

9. "Remember when everyone said I was a-maaaazing?" (Texans QB C.J. Stroud, after the Vikings warped the Texans 34-7)

10. "Remember when everyone said I was NOT a-maaaazing?" (Vikings QB Sam Darnold, who threw four touchdown passes as Minnesota stayed unbeaten)
