Welcome to the week 14 Official NFL Power Rankings! With circus catches and beatdowns alongside great games, there was plenty to discuss even before a MNF Scorigami that might already be airing on ESPN classic. 32/32 Reporting

#	Team	Δ	Record	Comment
1.	Chiefs	--	12-1	The Dolphins gave the Chiefs all they could handle in the first quarter of Sunday's game, but the Chiefs once again proved that when they are focused, they are the most dangerous team in the NFL. Travis Kelce, the NFL's leading receiver currently, had another monster game showing why he's a future hall of famer. However, after having five 10+ point wins in the first eight weeks of the season, the Chiefs last five wins have all been won by one score. Will this trend ultimately matter come playoff time? It's hard to argue with results, as the Chiefs 12-1 record is the best record through 13 games in franchise history. The ultimate barometer for the Chiefs is this week as they travel to play the Saints, hopefully with Drew Brees. Many questions will be answered in this clash of two top five teams.
2.	Packers	+2	10-3	There always seems to be one Lions-Packer game a year that ends up being some kind of adventure. Rodgers and Adams were as good as ever but the Lions kept on lingering throughout the game. Mason "Silver Fox" Crosby nailed an insurance 58 yard field goal with 3:30 to play and made a touchdown-saving tackle on the immediate kickoff. Aside from Crosby, the special teams really leave a lot to be desired, especially after the hands team almost allowed a onside kick recovery (c'mon y'all I don't need Bostic flashbacks). Packers officially won the division game and are now the projected 1 seed, which is pretty neat ngl. Onto a Saturday game I guess?
3.	Bills	+2	10-3	For a team that was searching desperately in 2019 for a signature win, the 2020 Bills have found them everywhere they turn. This team has had one of the toughest schedules in the league, but except for a couple games they've shown up every time they've had to. This is the second-best team in the conference. The Bills bandwagons are circling now. Josh Allen's extending his baseball glove-sized hand. He says "get in nerds, we're goin' to the Super Bowl."
4.	Saints	-1	10-3	This loss = Hurts. Dennis Allen seemingly had no answers for the rookie QB and then Miles Sanders piled on as well. "All the things we didn't want to allow happen, happened in that game." This was Sean Payton's post-game assessment and it's fair. Taysom Hill had an acceptable statline but it hides how sloppy he looked on the field. The defense struggled with its assignment to contain Hurts and keep him from getting outside the pocket - a worrying sign considering the next QB on the schedule.
5.	Steelers	-3	11-2	The Steelers schedule has been insane. 6 days between NYG and DEN. 14 days between HOU and PHI. 10 days between JAX and BAL. But with that BAL game, the Steelers played them, WFT and BUF in 12 days. 3 games in 12 days. The team is out of LBs and OL. This has been a challenging season for everyone, but this is unprecedented. The Steelers have 8 days until CIN, then 6 days until IND. 10 out of 16 games played with an irregular schedule? You can argue the drops are kicking their ass, but this schedule has been brutal. No wonder they've lost 2 straight.
6.	Rams	--	9-4	Imagine only scoring 3 points in a game.
7.	Colts	+1	9-4	Kenny Moore is a player underrated by national media but massively valuable to the Colts. GM Chris Ballard made re-signing him a priority after his breakout 2018 season. Moore has been a reliable performer throughout his tenure as a Colt and added an exclamation point with his insane one-handed interception on Sunday.
8.	Titans	+1	9-4	Derrick Henry had his second 200+ yard 2 TD game against the Jaguars on Sunday. The performance made Henry the 7th player to rush for 1,500+ yards and 14+ TDs through 13 games.
9.	Seahawks	+1	9-4	Nothing cures ~~suicidal thoughts~~ losing like playing the Jets, baby. Sunday was never much of a game, as it was all Seahawks all day. Russell Wilson threw for 4 touchdowns, Jamal Adams broke the single season sack record for defensive backs, and Geno Smith got to play a full quarter against the team that drafted him. What a way to get over a bad loss to the Giants. Up next the Seahawks will take on their final NFC East opponent of the season; Football Team.
10.	Ravens	+2	8-5	This ranker is a brown man, writing about how Lamar Jackson lost 20 pounds dropping some brown, dropping a TD to Brown, to go ahead against the Browns. They go for two. So in response, K-hunt ties the game, 42-42. In response, the Llama sets up the GOAT to nail a 54-yarder, 16th game winner of his career! To say nothing else of the game -- 9 total fucking rushing touchdowns, tying a record held since two defunct teams played each other before anyone on reddit was born... and Jackson runs for a MNF QB record 124 yards -- but still gets all the clutch plays done with his arm, with this middling group of receivers. The even greater news amidst all this is that the schedule doesn't look so bad in the closing stretch, and inspired play like this past Monday from the offense will ease the burden of the Ravens' gradually depleting secondary. Best wishes to Trace McSorely who made an extremely commendable effort to set them up for Lamar's return.
11.	Browns	-4	9-4	Did you bet the over? The Browns and Ravens combined for 89 points in an absolute rollercoaster of a game. While they did not win, the Browns have shown they are contenders. With two games to go a real shot at the playoffs is on the table. The Browns will face the Giants in another prime time game.
12.	Buccaneers	-1	8-5	The Buccaneers pulled off a 26-14 win over the Vikings, bringing their playoff chances to 94%. Vikes kicker Dan Bailey channeled his inner Gary Anderson to win the Bucs' game ball on an 0/3 kicking performance with an additional missed XP. Rookie Antoine Winfield Jr. played a disruptive game against his dad's former team and is looking like he has the potential to be one of the league's next great safeties. With only interim coaches to close out the remaining three games of the season, the Bucs should have smooth sailing into the Wild Card round.
13.	Dolphins	--	8-5	There are no consolation prizes in the NFL, but a single score loss to the best team in the league while the backup waterboy is lining up in the slot is about as close to a one as you'll ever get. While he was able to pull off the win, even Patrick Mahomes couldn't keep this ball-hawking defense from getting a hold of the ball, often. And at some point, if people don't start talking about Xavien Howard in the DPOY conversation, he's just going to go intercept the damned award himself. Hopefully, the long, long list of injured Dolphins get well soon.
14.	Cardinals	+1	7-6	A monster day from Haason Reddick and the defense finally put the Cardinals back on the winning track. Breaking a franchise record with 5 sacks was one thing, but getting all the turnovers was huge. Hopefully the offense feeds off of it and has a good week in preparing for a big game with Philly that has huge playoff implications. It will take a complete team effort to beat Philly with Jalen Hurts starting fresh of a win against the Saints.
15.	Raiders	-1	7-6	The Raiders looked really bad against the Colts, just like they have for the better part of the last 6 weeks. Luckily Gruden finally made the call to fire Pauly G, something fans have been calling for for the past 2 seasons. Only time will tell if it's too little, too late. Every game from here on out is a must win if the Raiders want to make the playoffs.
16.	Washington FT	+3	6-7	Washington is finding ways to win instead of finding ways to lose. The offense was not able to score a TD so the defense went ahead and spotted them 14 points. Chase Young notches his first TD and continues to prove his worth as the 2nd overall pick as a game wrecker.
17.	Vikings	--	6-7	Dalvin Cook became the first back to rush for over 100 yards against the Bucs in over 20 games, but the Vikings were unable to convert long drives into points as Dan Bailey went 0/4 on field goals and extra points. Couple that with some questionable officiating, the Vikings' banged up front seven generating zero pressure on Tom Brady and plenty of self-inflicted wounds and it all adds up to a real tough loss that knocks the Vikings down from wild card favorites to playoff long shots.
18.	Bears	+5	6-7	The Bears finally snapped their six-game losing streak by rolling over the Texans without much difficulty. Trubisky attempted one throw longer than 20 yards.
19.	Patriots	-3	6-7	Los Angeles, is a land of contrasts - In a span of four days the Patriots' hopes for a postseason were revived and then unceremoniously squashed. Run Defense, Offensive Line, Cam and the Receivers, There just are too many holes to cover up with week to week coaching, this team needs some reworking over the offseason. The Pats end the season with the division as always, lets hope to fuck someone’s season or seeding up. And also the Jets.
20.	49ers	-2	5-8	The 49ers defense did their job, holding the Washington offense to a total of 9 points, but the offense had two takeaways brought back for touchdowns and could not recover. The team looks to right the ship this week against the Cowboys.
21.	Broncos	+5	5-8	Drew Lock put up the third-highest passer rating in team history — behind a couple guys you may know. In the battle of 4-8's, the Broncos somehow managed to not blow a sizeable fourth-quarter lead and emerge victorious. Winning the game but losing The Hunt for a Better Draft Pick. Will the team remain in purgatory? Stay tuned.
22.	Giants	-2	5-8	It’s a real joy to watch the rest of the teams in the up-for-grabs NFC East secure wins, with one being against a top-5 team, all while watching your team play so poorly they start setting franchise records. At least we can say the hype was fun while it lasted, right?
23.	Falcons	-1	4-9	Outplayed by a team whose most impressive win is a tossup between the Bengals, Jaguars, and Jets? Check. Outcoached by special teams ace Anthony Lynn? Check. Ten point lead blown, two interceptions with under five minutes left, double check. Good thing age is just a number for the 32nd youngest team in the league.
24.	Panthers	-3	4-9	I'm not sure where the Panthers go from here. Coach Rhule has said that he isn't going to do the team and fans a disservice by beginning to evaluate players, which means that we're going to see more of Teddy Bridgewater (who is 0-7 in one score games this season) crumble at the end of the game. Playing at Lambeau in primetime in December is one of the hardest things a team can do, and it's not going to be an easy test for the Panthers, who so far have shown that they can't win close games, nor can they defend the pass (23rd in passing defense). It's going to be tough sledding, but hopefully Jeremy Chinn can continue his torrid pace and run his way into DROY.
25.	Eagles	+3	4-8-1	Jalen Hurts delivered the spark the Eagles needed to upset the Saints and spread 'quarterback controversy' all over the city of brotherly love. While the season remains a disappointment, the dual running threat of Hurts and Sanders could be interesting to watch going forward, and the NFC Least remains wide-open with 2 divisional games left on the 2020 menu.
26.	Lions	-1	5-8	Even with a loss, Interim HC Darrell Bevell showed that his Lions are here to compete. This game was never out of hands, and the Lions kept it close the entire time. There are still plenty of woes on Defense, but the Offense continued to ball out as expected. With two TD's coming from the run game (Swift and Kerryon), there is already something to look forward to next year. Lately the team has been able to trust the run on short yardage and redzone carries and it has helped the team with consistency in the red zone. Unfortunately, Aaron Rodgers is a QB that can carve up a weak secondary... so that didn't go great. There's around a 1% chance of the Lions getting a playoff spot, not unheard of, but it'll be tough if Stafford's injury progresses and we lose him for the season. #DefendTheDen
27.	Chargers	--	4-9	First of all, props to Falcons Twitter for this gem before the game, and it played out exactly as expected. Both teams did their best to try giving it away at the end, but the Chargers ended up on the winning side this time around. The Chargers had their hiccups again but there were improvements across the board; Justin Herbert's 81.8% completion percentage is his highest of the season, the defense came away with 3 INTs, and special teams probably had their best day. The Chargers get a short week before a Thursday Night tilt in Las Vegas.
28.	Texans	-4	4-9	The Texans are lucky that Paxton is the Texas AG, otherwise they would have had the biggest blowout loss in the state this past week.
29.	Cowboys	--	4-9	The Red Rifle won his revenge game, the defense forced multiple turnovers, and the Bengals were held to 3.4 yards per carry. All that, and the Cowboys still come out of the week with a top 5 draft pick. Honestly, Sunday couldn't have gone better. Now, the only question is whether this was the team turning the corner and the beginning of a strong finish to the season, or this was just a perfect moment of the Cowboys finding a shittier team with serious injuries issues and just doing what should happen in that scenario.
30.	Bengals	--	2-10-1	Giovani Bernard hadn't fumbled since 2013 before his 1st quarter fumble on Sunday. So what does he get for his troubles? A spot on the bench thanks to Zac Taylor. Giovani was one of the only veterans who spoke out in behalf of Taylor and the current coaches when multiple articles were released with "sources" saying that Taylor had lost the locker room last month. You have to question the benching for multiple reasons as the directionless Bengals continue to flounder to blowout losses. Just another reason why this should be Zac Taylor's last season as head coach in Cincinnati.
31.	Jaguars	--	1-12	This one felt more as expected. Perhaps it was in former GM Dave Caldwell's plans— no, wait, hear me out. Adjusting tinfoil hat; Based on the moves taken this offseason to seemingly dump talent from the Jaguars in attempt to amass more draft picks, perhaps the former front office of the Jaguars were banking on this season not being played, due to pandemic reasons. Sure, this may sound farfetched, but I'd like to hear a more reasonable explanation for fielding such a disaster as this team, this season.
32.	Jets	--	0-13	The Jets have now scored on 7 consecutive opening drives, the longest streak in the NFL. After climbing to an early 3-0 lead, I watched Peter Sawkins make an excellent cranachan custard slice on The Great British Bake Off.

Three statements for each week one NFL game

https://preview.redd.it/cfeadwtzekn51.png?width=900&format=png&auto=webp&s=e7702758b01778b27cd777a782c7eb5743d458f6

Football is back, baby! After an awesome first week of NFL action, which I watched every full game of, I wanted to kind of recap all 16 matchups and come up with three statements for each one. Some of them may be more hyperbolic or could be labelled as hot takes, while others state for obvious facts. You can also listen to my Youtube breakdown of week one, where I just give more of my general thoughts on all these games, while also bringing up some of the points I make in this article.
So here’s what I took away from week one:

Houston Texans @ Kansas City Chiefs

1. Clyde Edwards-Helaire makes this KC offense unfair
This physicality and ability to break tackles is scary, when you think about how dynamic the Chiefs are with Patrick Mahomes and all those guys streaking downfield. I like what I saw from the offensive line, with Kelechi Osemele adding some power on the inside, but 106 of 138 rushing yards for CEH came after contact. No other player in the league even cracked 100 rushing in general. And he didn’t even get any work in the passing game yet, where I believe he could be even more dangerous, as defenses have to back off and then try to bring this bowling ball to the ground. Thank god I have him in all my fantasy leagues and as my favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year.
2. Will Fuller is the clear number one option in the passing game for Houston
With DeAndre Hopkins out of the picture, 150 targets were all of a sudden on the table and “The Flying V” (thanks Fantasy Footballers) should take on the lion’s share of that amount. In the season-opener, the fourth-year receiver caught eight of ten targets on the night for 112 yards. He was on the field for 86 percent of the offensive snaps, while newly acquired running back David Johnson was the only Texans player to catch more than two passes and Fuller was responsible for 44.3 percent of their total through the air. Fuller and Deshaun Watson have a clear connection and with me expecting Houston to be down in games quite a bit, this could lead to a lot of production.
3. The Chiefs are in a different league than the Texans
I went into this game thinking the Chiefs were the best team in the NFL and I had the Texans projected to go 7-9, so it wasn’t overly surprising to me that the games was never actually that close, but this was never even a contest beyond the first quarter. Don’t let the final score (34-20) fool you. The Chiefs scored 31 unanswered, while the Texans picked up eight first downs over that stretch. Even with their two starting corners missing half the game, the defense looked strong, with Frank Clark beating Tytus around the corner like a drum routinely, and if Demarcus Robinson just held on to a couple of passes in the end-zone, KC would have scored 11 more points.

Philadelphia Eagles @ Washington Football Team

1. This game was almost a mirror image of what happened in week one between these two in week one of last season
In that game to kick of 2019, Washington got out to a 17-0 lead in the first half before Carson Wentz came roaring back, hitting a couple of deep balls to DeSean Jackson to win the game. This time around, Philly dominated the first half, with Washington’s first points coming with less than a minute until halftime. Then two things happened over the final 30 minutes – the Eagles started going down like “birds” and that Washington D-line completely took over the game. I will get to those two points a little more in detail, but it is still crazy to me how everything flipped in half two and how reminiscent it was to what happened exactly a year ago.
2. Philadelphia’s two biggest issues seem to be back
First of all, the injuries are already a major concern for the Eagles. They had to bring in three different offensive linemen off the bench, after they had already lost Brandon Brooks and Andre Dillard for the year, plus Boston Scott went to the locker room after they already made the trip without second-year back Miles Sanders. And then, I really didn’t like what Doug Pederson did with the Philly offense in the second half. They almost exclusively went to shotgun, spread sets and ran standard West Coast passing concepts, which Washington was all over, while their pass-rush came crashing down. I know they lost their top run-blocker before the season, but this is still a team that should stick with the ground game and play-action off it.
3. Washington’s defensive line is nasty
The “Football Team” racked up eight sacks, as they were beating up everybody on Philly’s O-line and banging Carson Wentz around like a human piñata. Chase Young immediately showed what kind of freakish talent he is and you had multiple guys from that front become free quickly, to put the heat on Wentz. So much so that Washington’s linebacker started getting through untouched. And their DBs started jumping routes, because they knew the opposing QB had to listen to his internal clock, breaking once he first pointed his shoulders at the target. I never thought I’d say this, but “The Football Team” is alone in first place.

Miami Dolphins @ New England Patriots

1. The Cam Newton-led Patriots offense could be scary
This New England offense is so unique now that they went from statuesque Tom Brady to dual-threat Cam Newton and while Cam loves to spread the field and attack matchups, what they do in the run game is what really creates problems for defenses. The Patriots ran the ball 42 times compared to only 19 passes, with 15 of those carries coming from the quarterback. With jet sweep fakes, inverted veer runs and different option plays, their opponents will have to be very disciplined and assignment-proof. Plus, then with Cam’s big arm, he can push the ball downfield off play-action, which wasn’t even a real factor in game one. If not for N’Keal Harry fumbling the ball into the end-zone, New England’s offense would have scored 28 touchdowns – something they only did once from week eight on last season.
2. No New England skill-position players will be on my fantasy team
This is something I haven’t really done in the past either, outside of maybe Gronk, but now – maybe more so than ever – I don’t want the headache of figuring out who will be fantasy-relevant every week. With his rushing upside, Cam might be an interesting option in your leagues, if he is still available on the waiver wire, but none of those skill guys are dependable options for me. Here are the players, who touched the ball at least five times against Miami – Sony Michel (10), James White(8), Rex Burkhead (7), Julian Edelman (6), J.J. Taylor (5) and N’Keal Harry (5). No thank you.
3. We won’t have to wait much longer for Tua
Everybody – including current starter Ryan Fitzpatrick – knows that it’s only a question of time until fifth overall pick Tua Tagovailoa is ready and takes over at quarterback for the Dolphins. Fitzy actually played really well in 2019, but was picked off three times in this year’s season-opener and if you just follow the CBS cameras, you’d think Tua was about to go onto the field. Miami will host the division-rival Bills on Sunday, then it’s the Jaguars on Thursday Night Football, before the Seahawks come to town. After that there are two tough road-trips are on the horizon with San Francisco and Denver. So if the Dolphins don’t want to throw him out there on a short week, they might want to wait for that stretch to be over, since the two L.A. teams will come to South Beach after that. But I think we’ll see the rookie by mid-season if he’s fully healthy.

Green Bay Packers @ Minnesota Vikings

1. Aaron Rodgers is baaad man
I’m sorry for using a Stephen A. phrase here, but I just loved seeing Rodgers shut everybody up with a four-touchdown performance, after people started questioning how good he still is, with the Packers drafting his apparent successor Jordan Love in the first round. The way he threw the ball on the move, the zip that he put on his passes and the way he was straight up dealing reminded me of what I saw from Rodgers over the six plus years he was the best football player in the world. At one point he threw two TDs in the matter of half a minute. The first one to Davante Adams was absolutely filthy, when Rodgers escaped to the right and perfectly placed the ball to a spot where the corner had no chance to make a play on it. And then following a Jaire Alexander interception at the Minnesota 45, he connected with Marquez Valdes-Scantling for a long TD on a go route. Green Bay as a team only punted once all day and did not turn it over. Rodgers is getting himself ready to cash all those offseason receipts.
2. That young secondary will break Minnesota’s back
As spectacular as Rodgers was, I’m also highly concerned with this Vikings back-end. I talked about this heading into the year, with that entire group of cornerbacks combining for less than 1500 career snaps on defense, and there is hope that they can still improve as the season goes along, but yesterday they had no answers for number 12 and those Green Bay receivers. Rodgers averaged 10.1 yards per attempt and if not for a couple of drops and guys tripping, that number could have been even higher. You saw the Packers QB pick on Holton Hill quite a bit, their rookies got taught a lesson and nobody could even try to slow down Davante Adams, who hauled in 14 of 17 targets for 156 yards and two TDs.
3. Davante Adams is a top five receiver
When I released my personal top 100 list a couple of months ago, I only had Julio Jones and Michael ahead of Adams. DeAndre Hopkins had a spectacular debut in Arizona and while they didn’t show much in week one, Tyreek Hill and Mike Evans are part of that conversation, but nobody was more impressive than that dude from Green Bay. Matt LaFleur did manufacture a few touches for his top target, with bubble screens and deep crossers, but Adams always made the most of those plays, he made some big catches downfield and for good measure, he also recovered the game-sealing onside kick. The way he schooled those young DBs for Minnesota off the line and how that connection between him and Rodgers was almost automatic was fun to watch. As much as there was made about the Packers not drafting a single receiver in a historically great class as a number two to Adams, I also thought MVS and Lazard stepped up in the season-opener. And I also want to say his counterpart on the opposite team in Adam Thielen had a great day himself.

Indianapolis Colts @ Jacksonville Jaguars

1. Gardner Minshew is a real quarterback
Unlike what new Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette may think, Jacksonville does have a guy people want to go to battle with. You can’t be too mad at Fournette, since he did have to deal with Blake Bortles for most of his career, but after week one, you can definitely say that statement did not age well. Against the Colts, who were favored by eight points coming in, Minshew completed all but one of his 20 passes for 173 yards and three touchdowns, showing that gamer mentality and ability to make plays off script on several occasions. I talked about those Jacksonville receivers early on in the offseason, saying that they are a pretty underrated group, and they also found their new lead back in my big draft crush from Illinois State – James Robinson, who took 100 percent of the carries for Jacksonville. Indianapolis should not have lost that game, since they didn’t punt once and almost doubled Jacksonville in total yards, getting stopped inside the Jags’ five and missing a 30-yard field goal, but let’s give these guys some credit.
2. Time for the Jonathan Taylor show
First and foremost, it just sucks that Marlon Mack seems to have torn his Achilles. He was off to a strong start in this game and I feel really sick for him, especially being in a contract year. However, as bad as I feel for the veteran, I’m also so excited to see what this rookie running behind that Colts O-line. Taylor did not run the ball very well (nine carries for 22 yards), but surprisingly was a big factor in the pass game – which wasn’t his strong suite at Wisconsin – bringing in all of his six targets for 67 yards, where he showed that sprinter speed and the power he can build up on a couple of plays. While Nyheim Hines should clearly be a factor in that offense, with his ability to produce as a pass-catcher and gadget player, without Mack, Taylor now has all the chances to rival Clyde Edwards-Helaire for Offensive Rookie of the Year.
3. C.J. Henderson will be a stud at corner
I could have easily gone with something like “Same old Philip Rivers”, after throwing that bad pick down four in the fourth quarter on a deep crosser to Parris Campbell, when he telegraphed the throw way too much and allowed the safety in quarters coverage to break in front of his receiver. Instead I want to give their ninth overall pick in the draft some love. Henderson was outstanding in his first showing, breaking up three passes and won on kind a jump-ball for an interception, when Jacksonville was down 7-0 at that point in the second quarter, which set up his offense inside the Indy and led to that first touchdown to D.J. Chark. Henderson was all over T.Y. Hilton on a few snaps, including a throw into the end-zone on a third down in the second half (which I thought might be called for P.I. actually) and he knocked the ball out of the hands of Hilton on that fourth down that sealed the win.

Chicago Bears @ Detroit Lions

1. Same old Lions
I’m starting to really feel bad for people from Detroit. It’s been about 30 years since that franchise last won a playoff game and they have been irrelevant for large stretches of that window. On Sunday it was yet another example of how this team can mess up games. Up 23-6 with the Bears having a fourth-and-one from the opposing 10-yard line heading into the fourth quarter, the Lions had no business losing that game. Mitch Trubisky all of a sudden turned into Joe Montana and scored three touchdowns in just 15 plays. Matt Stafford on the other hand took a bad sack, which led to a missed a 55-yard field goal and tried to force a ball over the middle that got knocked up in the air and intercepted, when Detroit was still up by three. Even with that, the Lions had a chance to still win the game, as Stafford drove them all the way down the Chicago 16 and after spiking the ball with eleven seconds left, the Lions QB hit running back D’Andre Swift for a perfect pass on a wheel route, but usually sure-handed rookie had it slip out his hands and the prayer Stafford threw up with zeros on the clock was knocked. Another heart-breaker for Motown.
2. The Bears offensive line is a lot better in the run game
After the main part of free agency and the draft were wrapped up, I thought Chicago had two major holes on the roster – Right guard and a safety to pair up with Eddie Jackson. As bad as their Trubisky was in 2019, my biggest issue with Matt Nagy’s offense was the rushing attack. They finished bottom-six in yards per carry and total yards on the ground. So when they basically replaced Kyle Long with a former first-round bust in Germaine Ifedi I was worried of course, even though I said right away that he would fit better inside. In their first showing of the 2020 season, the Bears started getting people moving and you actually saw linemen five to ten yards down the field, as they put hands on the Detroit linebackers. David Montgomery ran hard, Tarik Cohen sprung loose on a couple of power and draw plays and Cordarrelle Patterson had a couple of crucial carries as well. Overall, they the ball 28 times for 149 yards and I give a lot of credit to new O-line coach Juan Castillo, who replaced the legendary Harry Hiestand.
3. Mitch magic in the fourth quarter
Through the first three quarters of the game, Trubisky was 12 of 26 for 153 yards. He did not look like a capable quarterback and had recently missed a wide open Cole Kmet on a third-and-nine from the Detroit ten by several yards. However, over the final 15 minutes he looked like a former second overall pick all of a sudden. Helped by some Lions miscues, he threw three touchdowns on the final four drives (15 total plays) and delivered in the clutch. That final scoring play on a fade route from Anthony Miller out of the slot was a thing of beauty. Miller also made some other huge grabs in that fourth quarter. I still say this was more bad Lions than good Bears, but give the guy some credit. Oh, one more thing – Adrian Peterson still has it. I don’t know how he does it, but he was the best running back on that field on Sunday

Las Vegas Raiders @ Carolina Panthers

1. All those vertical weapons on the Raiders could finally make Derek Carr cut it loose
While it was still more of your usual efficient showing by Carr, as he completed 73.3 percent of his passes for 239 passing yards and one touchdown, I thought he displayed the willingness to test defenses deep. That Jon Gruden offense leans on frustrating defenses with short passes, getting the run game going and then hitting them with a few shots over the top, That last element I thought was missing last season, which capped the Raiders’ potential, While DC is a conservative passer by nature – often times to a frustrating extent – that lack of deep balls had something to do with not having the appropriate weapons at the receiver position. With the additions Las Vegas made this offseason, that has changed. On just the second play of the game, Carr put the ball 50 yards in the air for rookie speedster Henry Ruggs III. Later on the first quarter he hit Ruggs on a deep crosser to set a one-yard touchdown by Josh Jacobs. Carr threw a 23-yard dime Nelson Agholor shortly before halftime to put his team back up by five and at least had his eyes downfield much more throughout the afternoon.
2. That Joe Brady offense and Teddy B will put up some numbers
While he did already coach under Sean Payton in a much smaller role, this is still a rookie offensive coordinator and to begin your career with 30 points against a pretty good Raiders team has to be nice. Teddy Bridgewater certainly deserves some credit here, but I was very impressed with Brady’s offense, that spread the defense out with five guys out on the route and how he forced the Las Vegas defense to defends every level of the field, leading to a lot of easy completions indicated by simple reads of second-level defenders and zone/man indicators. I don’t know who actually made that call fourth-and-inches just across midfield that would have given the Panthers a chance to still win that game, but obviously you’d rather have the ball in the hands of your best player in Christian McCaffrey or create some separation on some kind of mesh concept.
3. Josh Jacobs is about to become a superstar in this league
I came into this season with very high expectations for this second-year back and after watching him put on a show against Carolina, I probably should have put some money on him leading the league in rushing. We already knew how high Jon Gruden was on this kid coming out of Alabama last year and he had a great rookie season, with a team-record 1150 yards on the ground for a first-year player and that was despite missing three games. I already said in the offseason that I believe the Raiders have a top five O-line and the way he puts his head down and runs through people, led to an NFL-best 69 missed tackles forced. The difference this year should be his involvement in the passing game, which he was pretty good at in college, but he only caught 20 balls for 166 yards as a rookie. Against the Panthers he already caught four passes for 46 yards and showed what he can do after catching a simple dump-off, to go with 93 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.

New York Jets @ Buffalo Bills

1. The Bills now have all the weapons to force opponents to defend the entire field
If there was one area the Bills needed to improve upon this offseason, it was the wide receiver position. John Brown probably had his best season as a pro in 2019 and Cole Beasley was a dependable target in the slot for them. However, neither one of those guys should be a true number one option. Now that they brought in Stefon Diggs via a trade from Minnesota, it puts everybody in their appropriate position. With Dawson Knox taking another step and even having a screen drawn up for him, as well as those backs getting involved, I like what offensive coordinator Brian Daboll can do in terms of making opponents defend the entire field. I know it was “only” the Jets, but Buffalo just seemed to play so much more freely in the pass game.
2. Josh Allen could be an MVP contender in 2020
I actually had Allen as an honorable mention among my MVP candidates and was made fun of a little, when I posted my list on Reddit, but with what I just wrote about the Bills pass-catchers, I just think this could be a big year for their team and the quarterback in particular. The O-line gave him plenty of time to scan the field, he stayed patient and found his checkdowns late and still fired some absolute lasers. Allen also made a lot of plays with his legs on designed runs and scrambles. Will you still get the occasional “What the hell?” moment from him, like fumbling the ball while flipping over a defender? Yes. But if they hone himself in a little and be a more consistent threat from within the pocket, to go with those off-script plays, he could put up some big numbers.
3. The Jets might be the prime contenders for the number one overall pick in the 2021 draft
When I released my pre-season power rankings, I had the Jets all the way at the bottom of the list and that’s exactly what they looked like when we first saw them this season. The final score might have been 27-17, but the Bills could have easily blown them out by 30. It took Gang Green 40 minutes to get into the end-zone and it took Jamison Crowder breaking three tackles and going 69 yards and a quick screen play to get there. Buffalo’s rookie kicker Tyler Bass missed two field goals from less than 40 yards – even though I still believe the first one was actually good – Josh Allen fumbled the ball twice and that last touchdown was meaningless, with under a minute remaining. As much as I liked Sam Darnold coming out of USC, as I had him as my top quarterback in the 2018 draft, and I still believe in the right situation he would already be an above-average starter, I don’t know how you could pass on Trevor Lawrence if you are in position to draft him.

Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens

1. The reigning MVP might be even better
Lamar Jackson was so sharp and in control of the offense, keeping his eyes downfield even as he was stepping into crowded spaces or backing out and rolling either way. We saw him hit a deep ball to Marquise Brown, which was where I wanted to see him improve, and he impressed with tremendous ball-placement all afternoon, taking advantage of the leverage of defenders and drilling the ball into some tight windows. The day after the game I saw a statistic that he was 9-of-10 for 180 yards on passes of 10+ yards against Cleveland, after he completed only 49.2 percent of those his MVP season. I would just like to see him avoid some of those hits, where he goes head-first to pick up a few extra yards. But in terms of his pure pocket passing, it is scary to think where he could go.
2. The Ravens secondary plastered those Browns pass-catchers
It’s not a secret that Baltimore has one the premiere group of cornerbacks in the entire league, but I would argue they are the very best there is. Jarvis Landry got open on some crossers and deeper developing routes, when Baker did have a clean pocket, but altogether outside of Cleveland’s one touchdown at the goal-line, where the Ravens D lost one of the tight-ends out of a jumbo package, it was tough sledding for OBJ & company. Marlon Humphrey is already top five at his position, Marcus Peters is unreal at anticipating and reading routes, Jimmy Smith would be a high quality #2 on any other team and Tavon Young coming back in the slot only helps. Oh, and for Austin Hooper to be the highest-paid tight-end early in the offseason and to only come up with two catches for 15 yards is pretty disappointing.
3. J.K. Dobbins is about to take over this Ravens backfield
I’m not saying the rookie will play 80 percent of the snaps or handle more than half the rushing load going forward, but there is a reason I grabbed Dobbins in all my fantasy leagues, He was my number two back in the draft and I said right away that he was a perfect fit for this Baltimore offense. In his debut, the rook had a couple of nice gains and converted twice near the goal-line, while veteran Mark Ingram was stuffed for minimal yardage on several occasions. Gus Edwards will get some work to close out games, when they Ravens are ahead by multiple scores, and Justice Hill is an explosive player, who I really like in the passing game in particular, but Dobbins should be the lead guy for this squad.

Seattle Seahawks @ Atlanta Falcons

1. The Falcons secondary is still a mess
Over the first half of the 2019 season, the Falcons were the worst defense in the NFL, allowing 31.6 points per game, as they went 1-7 over that stretch. They started turning things around after that, but on Sunday afternoon they reverted back to that early 2019 form. We saw them play a lot more man-coverage, where they constantly allowed separation on crossing routes or just lost guys out of their breaks. When they were in zone, those corners gave way too much cushion in cover-three and when they did force some long-yardage situations, they just backed up and allowed easy 10-15 yard plays to set up easy third downs or basically surrender field goals. What really killed them was that 4th & 5 play Seattle had from the opposing 38-yard line when it was still 14-12, as Isaiah Oliver missed his punch in press-alignment, giving up the inside release to D.K. Metcalf, who could still make a perfect over-the-shoulder catch on a fade route. And by the way, Seattle didn’t look much better on the back-end.
2. Russell Wilson is finally allowed to cook
As bad as Atlanta was on the back-end defensively – What a performance for Russ. He went 31-of-35 for 322 yards and four touchdowns, while picking up two more first downs with his legs. Seahawks – and all football fans for that matter – have been screaming at the top of their lungs for the coaching staff to let Wilson to throw the ball earlier in games and on early downs. It wasn’t like the Falcons were all over Seattle’s receivers, but the touch Wilson throws with to perfectly put the ball in the hands of his guys in full stride is just a beautiful thing to watch. D.K. Metcalf looks to have taken a step forward with his route-running and Tyler Lockett is back fully healthy. So that means it’s bombs away for the Seahawks, which means trouble for the rest of the league, since they can still win with the power run game and then take play-action shots off that.
3. Calvin Ridley is an absolute stud receiver
I always believed in this kid. He was my number one receiver in the draft three years ago coming out of Alabama and he immediately started producing in the pros. While he was on track for a 1000-yard campaign last season, he is off to an even better start in 2020. Against the Seahawks, he hauled in nine passes for 130 yards and two TDs. Ridley constantly created separation by attacking leverage and excellent route-running. While he isn’t a straight-burner necessarily, he knows how to find space and is very shifty after the catch. The only thing that sucked was that one bad drop late in the game on fourth down, when he was too focused on getting his feet in bounds and had the ball go right through his hands because of it. But he and Julio Jones are right there in the race for top receiver duos, in a loaded division for pass-catchers.

Los Angeles Chargers @ Cincinnati Bengals

1. Welcome to Cincinnati, Joe Burrow
It’s always tough for a top draft pick to come to a bad team, try to turn things around and learn early on that even if he does everything right, it might not lead to victories. Burrow did not play a perfect game by any means – He got picked off by Melvin Ingram in the fourth quarter, who made such an instinctive play, when he read the screen pass and spun around to have the ball land right in his hands as Burrow shoveled it ahead late, he missed a potential touchdown to A.J. Green on a deep ball earlier and 13 points just don’t get you any wins in the NFL. That being said, he had his team in position to beat the Chargers, as he drove them all the way down to the L.A. three, only to have A.J. Green get called for an offensive pass interference on what would have otherwise been a game-winning TD and then his kicker to miss a chip-shot 31-yard field goal attempt. He better be hurt and not just have faked something there, once he saw the kick was wide right.
2. Mike Williams is one of the great big-play receivers in the game
Coming out of Clemson four years ago, Williams was known for being a super-physical downfield receiver, that had connected for a multitude of big plays with his former quarterback Deshaun Watson. That’s exactly what he has been in the NFL so far. Williams is incredible on 50-50 balls, he routinely comes through with big catches downfield along the sidelines and comes through when his team needs him most. Of the three receivers that went in the top ten back in 2017 (him, Corey Davis and John Ross), it is safe to say the Chargers has by far been the most best one – even though Davis had a pretty good showing himself on Monday. Last season Williams cracked the 1000-yard mark on a league-leading 20.4 yards per grab. This past Sunday against the Bengals he might have only caught four passes, but all of them were key in the victory – a great toe-tap grab at the sideline, coming back to the ball on a deep curl route and two go-balls on the sideline, where the safety almost knocked his head off on both of them.
3. Bobby Hart should not ever trash-talk
I have said many times that Hart is one of the worst starting offensive tackles in all of football and I have no idea why the Bengals continue to pay him, even with their bad track record of drafting linemen. I’m sure he tries “hart” and it’s not like he doesn’t belong in the league, but he should not talk trash – especially not to Joey Bosa, who came back to beat him for a sack with his well-known double-hand swipe, before getting into the face of Hart. This Chargers D-line was beating the crap out of Cincy’s front-five and the only reason they were in the game was their rookie quarterback speeding up his internal clock and still finding ways to make plays.

Arizona Cardinals @ San Francisco 49ers

1. DeAndre Hopkins is worth so much more than a second-round pick
While I do understand that the Texans would not have been able to pay D-Hop the kind of money he demanded, Bill O’Brien doesn’t deserve any sympathy for being the laughing stock for NFL fans. Hopkins is an elite receiver and Houston certainly didn’t get back the return he was worth, as they basically got back a second-round pick and took a bad David Johnson contract off the hands of Arizona, even if he actually looked better in week one than he did all of 2019. Nuk had more catches (14) than all the Texans receivers combined on Thursday (13). He went for 151 yards, including a couple of big grabs, including setting up a one-yard Kenyan Drake touchdown after being called down just short.
2. The Cardinals defense is starting to come together
I know the day didn’t start off great for this Arizona D, when they allowed Raheem Mostert to slice through for a 76-yard catch-and-run touchdown on an angle route, but outside of that one play, they held the offense of the game’s most creative offensive play-caller in Kyle Shanahan to just 290 yards. Mostert averaged under four yards per carry on 15 attempts and they held the reigning NFC champs to just a field goal over 50 minutes of game time. I’d advise you to check out Brett Kollman’s breakdown of all the different elements to Vance Joseph’s defense, where it seems like they now have the pieces to actually be successful with it. Budda Baker is a flying missile, their run defense should take a huge step forward with what they added to the front and some of their other young guys made plays when they really needed to, including Byron Murphy breaking up that final fourth down attempt for San Francisco, even though the ball was certainly thrown behind the receiver.
3. Jimmy G has to be more accurate
I understand why 49ers fans are frustrated, because their team was in control of the game early on and even after the Cardinals took the lead, their quarterback had all the chances to still get them the W. San Francisco rushed for 123 yards on 4.9 yards per attempt and Garoppolo also relied heavily on his backs in the pass game. If you take away that 76-yard catch-and-run touchdown by Raheem Mostert, where the QB just had to lob it over the middle and watch #31 take off, Jimmy G threw for only 183 yards on the other 32 attempts he had (5.7 yards per attempts). His stat line did look pretty good, but it does not represent the performance he had. Because not only did he almost kill George Kittle on a simple bubble screen, by putting the ball way too high, but when his team needed him most, with the ball at the Arizona 21, he underthrew an easy touchdown to Kendrick Bourne on first down and then thew the ball behind Trent Taylor on fourth-and-five.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ New Orleans Saints

1. The Saints D-line has a clear advantage over the Bucs O-line
The formula for beating Tom Brady has been out there for a while – get home with four. He has been notorious for slicing up defenses when they have to send extra blitzers, which only a few teams have been able to do effectively. On Sunday, Cam Jordan & company made life very uncomfortable for the 43-year old quarterback, as they sacked him three times and made him move around constantly. You saw some frustration on the first pick he threw, expecting Mike Evans to continue going down the seams and he was off with ball-placement on a few occasions. This is the reason I had the Saints beating the Bucs in the NFC title game, when I put out my season predictions two weeks ago.
2. Scottie Miller will be a key piece to the Tampa Bay offense
The Bucs obviously have one of the premiere receiver duos in the league with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, their group of tight-end honestly goes three deep and they now have an interesting mixture of backs. However, the one guy who routinely came up with big plays for Tom Brady was little Scottie Miller. Last year’s sixth-round pick out of Bowling Green caught five passes for 73 yards and added another six-yard run against the Saints. Ronald Jones was the only one with more scrimmage yards for Tampa Bay on Sunday and that was by only three. The guy they call “Scooter” lined up inside and out, caught a couple of passes over the middle, came up with a big grab on a slot fade route and forced a P.I. call on an out-and-up. Miller could be Brady’s new version of Julian Edelman in his new home.
3. Alvin Kamara is a different breed
While I don’t advocate paying too many running backs beyond their rookie contract and I have to believe the Saints have turned off the salary cap on their Madden team, with how much they will be in the minus heading into next year’s offseason, we saw that elite running back they did pay for on Sunday. The Bucs are a tough for New Orleans, because with Drew Brees’ declining arm talent, they really want to rely more on their backs and that run game to control games, but Tampa Bay was the number one rush defense just last season and they should be near the top once again in 2020. Still, with Kamara not even being the team’s leading rusher (12 attempts for only 16 yards), he caught five passes for 51 yards and converted twice in the red-zone, once on a screen pass that seemed to be dead in the backfield and then on a six-yard run, where he bounced off a tackler, who in cinematic fashion lost his mouthpiece in the process. That explosiveness, the contact balance and the speed are all back, after he was banged up for most of last season.

Any suggestions for a PC case that can fit in a carry-on suitcase? Should I bother?

I ran Franchise Hockey Manager until every team without a cup won at least once. Most of us won't live to see the last team win.

11 NHL franchises have never won a Stanley Cup. Four have never even played in a Cup Final. If you watch sports solely to see your team win a championship, you will likely be disappointed. In a league of 31 teams playing a game where the way a piece of rubber bounces across a sheet of ice can change destinies, even the professionals have to accept a level of influence from an indifferent universe. As fans, watching it all unfold without being able to offer any input at all can be maddening. Some fans joke, or seriously worry, that they won’t see a championship in their lifetime. But, thanks to Franchise Hockey Manger, we can simulate as many lifetimes as we need. We will follow the Arizona Coyotes, Buffalo Sabres, Columbus Blue Jackets, Florida Panthers, Minnesota Wild, Nashville Predators, Ottawa Senators, San Jose Sharks, Winnipeg Jets, Vancouver Canucks, and Vegas Golden Knights until they have all lifted the greatest trophy in sports. I will not manipulate the simulation to help them. You may argue that letting a computer program play this all out will produce an entirely arbitrary result. I would argue that you’re probably right, but the cruel whimsy of fate is part of why we love sports to begin with.

2019/20: This season is replayed from scratch, starting with the original opening night lineups. In the real world, just four of our 11 protagonists were in a playoff spot before the shutdown. FHM gives us four as well, although the field of Buffalo, San Jose, Columbus, and Winnipeg looks different than what we were expecting. Buffalo and San Jose go out with just a single win between them, but the Jets and Blue Jackets cruise to their respective Conference Finals. The Jackets defeat the Leafs, but the Jets lose to the Flames. Who then go on to defeat the Jackets. This is the one situation where I don’t want the Flames to win, and they’ve gone and done just that. Let’s hope that, and those three series going 6, 6, and 6, are not omens.

2020/21: I’ve excised the Seattle expansion, because its fans and future fans have not yet suffered any real-life disappointment. This experiment is about alleviating suffering, or perhaps prolonging it to horrifying extremes. Seattle’s pain must develop naturally.

The Canucks, Jets, and Blue Jackets all win their divisions, and the Sabres and Sharks qualify too. San Jose and Buffalo again exit with a whimper and, while our trio of division winners all advance to the second round, all fail to advance beyond it. The Canucks are knocked out in six by the Flames, who go on to repeat by sweeping Carolina. I must reiterate that I’m not manipulating the simulation.

2021/22: The Jackets and Jets return to the playoffs, and this year they’re accompanied by the Panthers, Predators, and Coyotes. But only the Jets advance beyond the first round, needing just nine games to dispatch both Nashville and Dallas before they lose in five to, I’m so sorry, the Pacific division winning Calgary Flames. If it’s any consolation, the Flames are denied the three-peat, as the Flyers, who started the playoffs by dispatching the Jackets in six, also win the Cup in six.

2022/23: This year it’s the Panthers, Sabres, Canucks, Predators, and Jets who get a shot at breaking the drought. Only the Predators and Sabres advance beyond the first round (apparent perennial threat Calgary knocks out Vancouver in six). Nashville and Buffalo lose to the Stars and Leafs in five in their respective Conference Finals, after which the Leafs need just another five games to secure their first Cup since 1967. A drought has been broken, but it’s not the one we’re looking to address. Even when Toronto wins they screw up.

2023/24: The Sabres win their division, and the Jackets, Coyotes, Jets, Predators, and Wild all secure spots to give us our most promising field yet. Three teams lose hard fought seven game series, while the Coyotes sweep the Flames but are then swept by the Oilers. The Predators and Sabres make it all the way to their Conference Finals but lose in five and four, respectively. The Oilers and Devils wage a hard-fought, seven game battle for a Cup that goes to New Jersey. We’ve made no progress, but at least I can enjoy the tears of digital Oilers fans.

2024/25: We’re back to just four challengers, with the Panthers, Sharks, Canucks, and Jets representing the ranks of the Cupless. The Oilers and Flames knock out the Canucks and Sharks, while the Jets and Panthers stall out in the second round. The Oilers go on to win a six game Battle of Alberta, a four game sweep of the Kings, and a seven game epic against the Red Wings. They are, ew, Stanley Cup champions, and have punished the hubris of my previous paragraph.

2025/26: The Sabres win their division, while strong Preds, Sharks, and Knights teams join the field. With the appearance of Vegas, only the Ottawa Senators have yet to appear in this experiment. Their playoff drought goes back to 2017/18.

The Sharks and Predators make the second round. The former push the defending champions to seven before bowing out, while the latter are crushed in five by a Colorado juggernaut that goes on to win a thrilling seven game series against the Penguins. At the end of the season, Alexander Ovechkin announces his retirement. He leaves the league 17 goals behind Wayne Gretzky’s all-time record.

2026/27: This is a promising year. The Wild and Golden Knights win their divisions, while the Sabres, Jets, Coyotes, and Canucks also qualify. The Coyotes show no mercy to their Cupless brethren, defeating Vancouver in seven before knocking out Las Vegas and Minnesota in two six game series. With the Sabres and Jets dropping out in the first round, the Coyotes are the second Cupless team to reach the Stanley Cup Finals in this experiment, and it’s the first of their now 30-year history in Arizona.
It is anticlimactic. But, for Coyotes fans, it is anticlimactic in the best way possible. Arizona cruises to a four game sweep of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Led by returnee Dylan Strome and his 28 playoff points, the Arizona Coyotes are Stanley Cup Champions. One down, 10 to go.

2027/28: The grim irony of this experiment is that, like with so many things in life, each success makes the next success just a little bit harder to achieve. Still, half of our seekers -- the Jackets, Canucks, Predators, Wild, and Jets -- all get a crack this year. Three of those teams promptly lose, although the Wild’s loss in a seven game opening series is Winnipeg’s victory. But it’s Nashville that draws eyes this year. Inspired by last year’s sight of Arizona lifting the first cup in franchise history, they rampage through the playoffs. After a thrilling seven game nail-biter against Chicago, they defeat the Jets and Avs in five each. Momentum appears to be on their side. Destiny appears to be on their side. They won their division. They racked up 105 points. Will they be the second team in as many years to win their first Cup?
No. They lose to Philadelphia in five. The 106 point Flyers lost just two games across the entire playoffs. A hot team is extinguished by a team going supernova. Sometimes sports are cruel.

2028/29: The Nashville Predators win the Stanley Cup. Sometimes sports are a lesson in delayed gratification.
In the regular season the Preds regressed to 95 points, but the hard lessons learned from last year’s Finals had clearly stuck. The Jets, Sharks, and Wild joined them in this year’s dance, and the Predators showed absolutely no mercy in immediately sweeping Winnipeg. After again taking out Colorado, this year in six, they met San Jose, who had dispatched Minnesota in seven back in the first round. They are once again merciless to their fellows in extended suffering, shoving them aside in five. The Cup Finals against Pittsburgh are a challenge, but nothing they can’t handle over six games. Filip Forsberg’s dominant 92 regular season points and 26 playoff points have brought an entire city joy and an entire franchise a slice of immortality. Nine teams watch on with increasingly frustrated envy.

2029/30: The east is shutout, but the Golden Knights, Sharks, Canucks, and Wild represent our shrinking field. The Golden Knights, for good measure, even win their division with 110 points. They look good in the playoffs. They look real good. They beat the Sharks and Flames in five, then the defending champs in six. But, much like Nashville two years before, they run into a team that’s even hotter. The 111 point Rangers defeat them in five.
Despite the anticlimactic finish to their season, there are many reasons for Vegas to be excited for next year. It would be almost prophetic for them to repeat the script of a promising Cupless team losing the Finals in five, only to return with a vengeance the following season.

2030/31: The New York Rangers win the Stanley Cup. Again. Vancouver, San Jose, and Minnesota all returned to the playoffs, but Las Vegas’ 69 point season sees them miss the playoffs entirely. Our smallest Cupless field since this experiment began saw all three teams advance to the second round, where the Canucks took down the Flames in seven while Minnesota defeated Winnipeg in five. A passionate all Canadian, all Cupless Western Conference Finals sees the Jets emerge after six games but, six games later, New York had broken the hearts of two cities in as many years. Dick move, New York. Dick move.

2031/32: The Senators (did you forget they were in this experiment?) win their division, qualifying them for their first postseason since 2016/17. They lose in the first round, although they do give Boston a seven game fight.
The Canucks and Wild are our only other teams, and they’re forced to play each other in the first round. Vancouver wins in six, then defeats Arizona in another six, but then they lose in five to, oh no I really am sorry, the Calgary Flames. The Flames then defeat the Red Wings in five more games for another Cup.
When, in reality, the Calgary Flames won their only Stanley Cup, I was barely a year old. My father tells me I celebrated by urinating on him. As an adult in this hypothetical future I have been able to witness them win three more Cups, but every single one of them has served only to prolong this experiment.

2032/33: The Blue Jackets return to the playoffs, joining a strong Cupless field that also includes Vancouver, San Jose, Minnesota, and Winnipeg (Ottawa has already returned to irrelevance). The Wild sweep the Jets, making them the only team of the five to advance to the second round. There they sweep again, this time against Chicago, before losing to Arizona in seven. The recently Cupless are now prolonging the torment of the teams they could once identify with. If it’s any consolation to their former fellows, the Coyotes lose the Cup to the Islanders in six.
During the offseason, Connor McDavid retires. Although it will still be a few more years before every player active today leaves the league, we are approaching the point where FHM’s rosters will be entirely fictional. When that happens I will, in one sense, just be spinning an roulette wheel until the ball lands in the right slots. But this program can still capture the ebbs and flows of declines and rebuilds, of bad ownership and missed opportunities. And, perhaps most importantly, it can still capture some of the ineffable horror that embodies a long-suffering fandom. In a league of this size, much suffering is inevitable.

2033/34: The Panthers return to the playoffs, joined only by Vancouver and Vegas. Only Florida wins a round, scraping out a seven game victory over Toronto, before losing to Pittsburgh in six. See? Suffering. The Penguins go on to the final, but fall in six to the Ducks.

2034/35: The Sabres win their division, San Jose finishes second in the Pacific, and Winnipeg also squeaks in before losing in seven to the Avs. Buffalo wins in seven over Pittsburgh but, in another grueling seven game series, falls to Boston. The Bruins march on to the Cup Finals, where they will face the San Jose Sharks.
Both teams have had hard roads. San Jose needed seven against both the Ducks and the Kings, then six against Chicago. Boston’s played just one game fewer. All signs point to another long, agonising series. Instead, it is a sweep. Led by Conn Smythe winning defencemen Dan Stevens, the San Jose Sharks are Stanley Cup champions. Eight teams remain.

2035/36: Seven teams remain. Half of our shrinking Cupless ranks -- Columbus, Buffalo, Vancouver, and Minnesota -- qualified this year. The Blue Jackets fall in the first round, the Canucks in the second. In the Conference Finals, the Wild defeat the Ducks in six but the Devils cruelly deny us an all Cupless Finals thanks to their seven game victory over Buffalo. But Minnesota doesn’t care about quibbles like that. After an easy five game series, the Minnesota Wild are Stanley Cup champions.

2036/37: The momentum for the Cupless can’t continue. Winnipeg, Vancouver, Buffalo, Columbus, and Ottawa all suffer first round defeats. Ottawa’s five game loss is to the Panthers, who go out in five to the Bruins. Those Bruins advance to the Finals but lose in six to the Ducks.

2036/37: Vancouver, Columbus, Vegas, and Ottawa reach the postseason. But Vegas, Columbus, and Ottawa go out in the first round (after again losing to Boston in seven, it has now been 20 years since the Senators have won a playoff series), and Vancouver goes out a round later to Calgary in five. In the Cup Finals, the Avs sweep the Islanders.

2038/39: The Jackets, Knights, Canucks, and Jets get another shot at ending the pain. It’s promising that so many of our shrinking field can still qualify, and Vegas and Columbus both reach their Conference Finals. But five game losses to the Blues and Bruins instead gives us a rematch of 2018/19, and while this installment only goes five games the Blues again emerge victorious.

2039/40: We are now 20 years removed from reality, and a new decade brings new promise. The Canucks, Knights, and Sabres will attempt to make the most of it. With only Vancouver managing to escape the first round (in a five game defeat of Arizona), it looks to be another dour year for Cupless teams. But then they defeat the Oilers in six. And then they defeat the defending champion Blues in another six. In the Finals, they will meet the New York Rangers, who were terrorising Cupless teams a decade ago. The tradition continues.
Sorry, I meant a tradition continues. The tradition of Cupless teams winning easy, anticlimactic Cup Finals. After five games, the Vancouver Canucks are Stanley Cup champions. FHM is not yet sophisticated enough to tell us what happens to the city of Vancouver in the aftermath. Six teams remain.

2040/41: Vegas and Buffalo return to the playoffs, and Columbus joins them. Like last season, two teams lose in the first round. And, like last season, one team goes all the way. After six games against Tampa Bay, a sweep of Toronto, and two more six game wins against Carolina and St. Louis, the Buffalo Sabres are Stanley Cup champions. It has taken the franchise 71 years. Fans who witness this moment will think of friends and family who couldn’t. Five teams remain.

2041/42: Vegas and Columbus return to the playoffs, and Florida joins them. Like last season, two teams lose in the first round. And, like last season, one team goes all the way. If that sounds familiar, that’s because this is a golden age for Cupless teams. But will it be the Golden Knights or the Blue Jackets that emulate the Sabres in learning from recent defeats?
It will be neither. After a four year absence from the playoffs, the Panthers defeat the Jackets in six, sweep the Lightning, squeak past the Flyers in seven, then sweep the Blues who, in a reverse-Rangers, have lost two Finals in a row to Cupless teams. The Florida Panthers are Stanley Cup champions. Three Cupless teams have won in as many years, and only four remain. After some initial bumps, this experiment appears to be going well. But while some golden ages come to crashing halts, others can decline so gradually that, in the end, you don’t even realise that you’ve arrived in hell.

2042/43: The slim ranks of the Cupless teams are beginning to feel desperate. Columbus and Vegas are playoffs perennials that can’t quite get over the hump, a generation of promise in Winnipeg has given way to an extended absence, and the Senators have had two playoff appearances in a quarter century. Only Vegas qualifies this year, and they go out in six to Colorado. In the Finals, the Devils defeat the Predators in six.

2043/44: Vegas is again the only team to qualify, and they again go out in the first round. The Islanders defeat the Avs in five.

2044/45: Vegas is now joined by Winnipeg and Columbus. Winnipeg’s return is short-lived—they lose in six to the Wild—while Columbus defeats the Rangers in seven but can’t handle a second helping of New York in a five game loss to the Islanders. But the Golden Knights are battle hardened. They’re frustrated by their recent first round exits, and they take their frustrations out on the division winning Ducks by sweeping them. The Sharks are defeated in seven, the Stars in five. The defending champion Islanders await.
It is a brutal, dramatic series that goes the distance. The Golden Knights are in their first Cup final since 2030, and they don’t want to lose to another New York team. But the universe doesn’t care what we want. Las Vegas loses game seven, and the Islanders repeat. Vegas is now 0-3 in Cup Finals.

2045/46: Remember when Vegas lost the 2030 Finals? And I said they could build off of the experience, they could come back stronger next year, yadda yadda yadda, and then they had a miserable season? I should have saved that theory.
The Vegas Golden Knights win the Presidents’ Trophy. The first round sees the Jets lose while the Blue Jackets and, shock of shocks, the Senators, are absent entirely. But Vegas defeats the Canucks in six. They sweep the Sharks. They sweep the Avs. They do not sweep the Red Wings, who push them to another Cup Final game seven. Nervous fans are tired of seeing this script unfold before them. But the Golden Knights built off experience. They came back stronger. The Vegas Golden Knights become Stanley Cup champions. Three teams remain.

2046/47: For the first season since this experiment began, no Cupless team qualifies for the playoffs. After a seven game Finals against Vancouver the Islanders become a modern dynasty by winning their third Stanley Cup in four years.

2047/48: Columbus and Winnipeg lose in the first round. Vegas wins their second Cup in three years with a sweep of the Rangers. Revenge feels good.

2048/49: Winnipeg loses an opening round matchup to Colorado for the second straight year, and this one is a sweep. Columbus misses the playoffs, while Ottawa fans struggle to remember what the playoffs even feel like. In a seven game Finals between the Flyers and the Predators, Nashville emerges victorious.

2049/50: The Jets reason that they can’t lose to the Avs in the playoffs if they don’t make the playoffs. There is no evidence that the Senators reason at all. But the Blue Jackets intend to make their golden anniversary in Columbus a memorable one, and they win their division with a 102 point season. They live up to the seeding, cruising past the Devils in five. The Penguins fall in six. So do the Leafs.
Hot Cupless teams have, over the course of these decades, struggled against even hotter Finals opponents. But this year the West is fractured. The Presidents’ Trophy winning Avalanche were swept by the Blackhawks, prompting middle-aged Reddit users to recount some of their greatest memes. Those Hawks couldn’t capitalise on the momentum and fell to the Wild, who then advanced past the Oilers to reach the Finals. The Blue Jackets, a model of consistency this year, defeat them in six. The Columbus Blue Jackets are Stanley Cup champions. A half-century of shortcomings feel like they’ve been erased over night. Two teams remain.

Interregnum (2050/51 – 2059/60): We should be witness to an epic duel to avoid the cruel fate of being the league’s last Cupless team. We instead descend into a sad farce. The entirety of the 2050s sees the Ottawa Senators muster up just one first round loss, and the Jets outperform them with two.

2060/61: The Senators reappear in the playoffs and promptly lose to the Islanders, making it well over 40 years since their last series victory. But the Jets finally get some revenge against the Avalanche over the course of a gruelling seven game series, and then the Wild fall in seven as well. The Predators are swept away, pitting the Jets against the Flyers for the Cup.
Much of the hockey world is pulling for the Jets. They couldn’t win a Cup in their original NHL years. The franchise couldn’t win a Cup in Atlanta. The Jets haven’t won a cup since their return to Winnipeg in 2011. In 2061, in a series that’s fought over a titanic seven games, the Winnipeg Jets do not win a Stanley Cup.

2061/62: The Senators and Jets both miss the playoffs. Jets fans wonder how many more years of suffering last year’s defeat has consigned them to. Senators fans have ascended beyond the traditional understanding of suffering to achieve either an advanced state of enlightenment or an advanced state of alcoholism.

2062/63: The Winnipeg Jets face the Chicago Blackhawks in the first round, and win in six. The Ottawa Senators face the Montreal Canadiens in the first round and, after seven games, win their first playoff series since 2016/17. In that 46 year gap, some Senator fans will have lived and died without witnessing a single series victory. But now, in a year where the only two Cupless teams remaining both managed to advance to the second round, it feels like it should be fate for them to meet in an epic Finals that will be talked about throughout the ages.
Both teams lose round two game sevens.

2063/64: The Senators build on their round two game seven loss to the Red Wings with a round one game seven loss to the Red Wings, because no matter the era Ottawa ownership does not understand the concept of “build.” Winnipeg, however, marches on. Their 112 point season is good for second in the league, behind that titanic 127 point Detroit team. The Jets live up to the expectations of their long suffering fanbase by defeating the Coyotes and Blackhawks in five, then the Kings in six. Three seasons after suffering a heartbreaking game seven Cup Finals loss, the Jets will have to face an overwhelmingly talented Red Wings team.
No one would fault the Jets for losing here. This Wings team is one of the best the league has seen in decades. And, that sad gap in their trophy case aside, two Cup Finals in four years would be a lot for the Jets to build on. Winnipeg fans are supportive, but they are also realistic. When they go to another game seven, it’s hard for them to feel any optimism. It feels like they’ve seen this story before, only now their opponent is a minor deity. Fate, they feel, is simply stacked against them, and they are resigned to that.
The Winnipeg Jets win the Stanley Cup. The Ottawa Senators are the only NHL franchise still wandering through the desert.

Purgatory (2064/65 – 2074/75): The Senators are… okay. They qualify for the playoffs six times, their best 10 year stretch since this experiment began, and they win three first round series. It is as though, with the pressure of the Cupless race over, they can focus on simply being a competent hockey franchise. “Okay” isn’t nearly good enough to win a Cup, but it’s a start.

2075/76: An 89 point Senators season feels much like the 10 seasons that have just preceded it. Ottawa is decent, but unremarkable. They will go to the playoffs and, thanks to their first wild card slot placing them against a Rangers team that won their division with just 95 points, their more optimistic fans think they can even win a series. They do, in six, which is nice.
Then they defeat the Islanders in six.
Then they defeat the Bruins in six.
This is suddenly a team of destiny. When the 200th anniversary of Canadian Confederation rolled around in 2067, the Senators were derided for being the only Canadian franchise without a Cup. Perhaps instead, on the 300th anniversary of American independence, the Senators can free themselves from hockey purgatory. The city of Ottawa is excited about hockey in a way it hasn’t been in the lifetime of most of its citizens. This is their moment. It has to be.
The Senators lose to the Oilers in five.
Goddammit, Ottawa.

2076/77: The Ottawa Senators miss the playoffs. The Edmonton Oilers win their third straight Stanley Cup.
Fuck.

The Hell Years (2077/78 – 2093/94): Over a 16-year stretch the Ottawa Senators qualify for the playoffs just five times. In 2079 they reach the Conference Finals, losing in seven to the Capitals, and in 2090 they manage to reach the second round before losing in six to the Lightning. This is a fate far worse than purgatory. Fans in Ottawa had a taste of opportunity, and it turned to ash in their mouths.

2094/95: The Ottawa Senators began their first NHL season 103 years ago. Children born in Ottawa as I write this, babes who are being swaddled lovingly in Senators blankets, will turn 75-years-old. If you are an 18-year-old Senators fan reading this today you will be 93, perhaps a grandparent or great-grandparent who regales your descendants with tales of your legendary shitposting. Assuming, of course, that Sens-fandom induced cirrhosis hasn’t killed you long ago. Most of you reading this will have died for one reason or another, and the vast majority of the players we watched this year and in years past will have also passed away.
In 2095, in a world that will bare little resemblance to the one we live in today, the Ottawa Senators skate to a competent but unremarkable 43-35-4 season, good for third in a weak Atlantic division. In the first round of the playoffs they face the Montreal Canadiens who, having not won the Stanley Cup since 1992-93, are facing their own century long existential crisis. The Senators win in six games, and fans will at least be happy that they’ll suffer a bit less than their long-time rivals this year. If you’re going through hell you’re told you should keep going, but it helps to see some other poor bastard getting it even worse while you do.
One of the things that fascinates me about sports is its ability to transcend time. Were you to be dropped 75 years into the past you may not have many of the same opinions or cultural touchstones of those around you, but you could all still agree that you want your team to put the puck in the net. Time also gives meaning to sports, as much of the drama comes from knowing that the events and opportunities we witness may not come around again for a long, long while. 75 years are, after all, a long time. In the second round of the 2095 NHL playoffs, the Senators defeat the Red Wings in six and advance to their first Conference Finals since 2079.
75 years ago World War II was wrapping up, and much of what we take for granted today -- norms, technologies, nations -- did not exist. I can’t even begin to conceive of what the world will look like 75 years from now, nor can I really conceive of the fact that I will almost certainly no longer exist to witness it. But I can tell you that, over six games, the Ottawa Senators will defeat the Pittsburgh Penguins and advance to face the Vegas Golden Knights in the Stanley Cup Finals.
On the cusp of the 22nd century, I imagine that even hockey will look quite different from how it does today. The sport today certainly looks quite different from how it did on the cusp of the 20th and 21st centuries. But hopefully people will still love it, and that will be enough. It’s been 202 years since the Stanley Cup was first awarded and, after a five game series, it will be awarded to the Ottawa Senators.

[Online][LFP][Genesys][FATE][5E][Campaign][EST/EDT][DM Seeking Players][Paid] Multiple Systems, Many Campaigns, Looking for Players!

██▓▒░ G a m e s

The meat and potatoes of what you're here for -- most of my homebrew campaigns are sandbox to some extent: that is, if you go 'off the rails' in any respect I might not push you back towards the intended 'goal' of the story. The initial quest of a campaign, if any, might change, or just never be resolved at all if the game has a set end-date. That said, I tailor each game I run to my players preferences and desires of what kind of story they're looking for so whether a group wants more role-play, more combat, or a classic puzzle-y, riddle-filled adventure I'll adapt to the desires of the group. If you have a specific idea of the type of game you'd like to play (or don't, but want to make one up with a group), I'm here for you!
Our campaign's require a minimum of 3 players for most of them to begin - the ones closest to starting will be marked. Here's a selection of some campaign adventures I currently have waiting to be played:
██▓▒░ Fallout - Homebrew || Genesys, FATE, or GURPS - TBD || Separate dates (see below); A mind is a terrible thing to waste, and you've been treating yours none too kindly, it seems. As evidenced by the fact that you can't remember the last six months of time. The smell of gunpowder and blood directs your attentions to one of the individuals sitting at the table. Their wasted mind now filtered out of their skull through a bullet shaped hole.
Thursday Nights @ 8PM ꧁ ⬆ 2/3 ꧂
Saturday Afternoons @ 1PM - Every other week
██▓▒░ Mondays 8 PM EST - || == Synchronicity == Servants of the fallen god, Kerberos, endeavor to plunge the world into uncertainty and chaos. From his celestial prison, he orchestrates a plot to rid the Planes of the Gods forever, tasking his servants to merge all planes into the Material Plane. The gods would beg you to investigate and foil this scheme- one that could spell the end of the Gods, all forms of magic, and even existence as we know it. Kerberos cannot be freed. His servants- must be put to the sword.

The Circus has been long shut down, but your heart still lingers in the limelight - until news of Vasily Durov's death reaches you, and your lives are uprooted by obligation to the family you found all those years ago.

██▓▒░ Careless Whispers - Homebrew Campaign Monday @ 3 PM EST; Ill omens mark the end of the First Age; the skies have turned to red. The ranks of our three suns have thinned to just two. The middle star, Ekos, has forsaken us for the first time in our world’s long history. We miss the beauty of blue light, the reassuring embrace that held the world together.

██▓▒░ Lost Mine of Phandelver Friday @ 9 PM PST; In the town of Neverwinter, on the Sword Coast of the Forgotten Realms, a miner and one of the three Rockseeker brothers is preparing to return to the frontier town of Phandalin, a few days travel to the south-east.

██▓▒░ Rime of the Frostmaiden - Level 4 || Beneath the unyielding night sky, you stand before a towering glacier and recite an ancient rhyme, causing a crack to form in the great wall of ice. Beyond this yawning fissure, the Caves of Hunger await. And past this icy dungeon is a secret so old and terrifying that few dare speak of it. The mad wizards of the Arcane Brotherhood long to possess that which the god of winter’s wrath has so coldly preserved—as do you! What fantastic secrets and treasures are entombed in the sunless heart of the glacier, and what will their discovery mean for the denizens of Icewind Dale? Can you save Ten-Towns from the Frostmaiden’s everlasting night?
Thursday, 1PM EST
Sunday, 1PM EST ꧁ ⬆ 3/3 ꧂ Starting soon - Still has room!
██▓▒░ Moving the Iron Maiden Sunday @ 9 PM PST; Set in the homebrew land of Vega - An elvish patron hires a group of sellswords for a simple task: Move a Maiden across three countries without letting on about your task. The challenge is simple - resisting the urge to be nosy. Can you keep your nose to the ground, or will you stick it where it doesn't belong?

██▓▒░ An Easy Ride, Indeed! Sunday @ 1 PM EST; In another place, in another time, a merchant by name of Gerbo Namfoodle died. In his will, he left a tavern to a group of adventurers who had done him a kindness. The adventuring market, being what it is and has been for many years now, fairly unstable unless you're willing to go to war- the new owners have put down their swords, shields, and crossbows and to take up the capitalist lifestyle!
This is an unconventional campaign that is styled more as a SitCom than an Adventure. Outside of group decisions leading to the inoperability of the Tavern, the whole game revolves around a single location, and is meant to be narrative, not explorative.

██▓▒░ A ʙ ᴏ ᴜ ᴛ t h e D M

Howdy! I go by teronism *or *relax *professionally, and I've been roleplaying for about 14~ years now and got started playing TTRPGs via *Play-by-post forums, *IRC *and the like. The story is ultimately my main interest in TTRPGs, so most often I take a more rules-light approach to GMing than some GMs I've played with, going for narration over mechanics when I see fit. Out of all my time roleplaying I've been GM/DMing for about the last 6~ years or so, so I've had my fair share of really awesome games and much less successful ones too. My preferred style of game-running is Theatre of the Mind with a focus on collaborative narration; I've currently been running a Campaign for the last 3 years that's been almost exclusively TotM, and I run several others that utilize VTTs to some extent as well! I do my best to engage all of my players equally through games, and develop the story in a way that becomes personal to everyone involved so everyone continues to have fun.
I'm currently partnering with a close friend to Co-DM my current run of games and we've been developing two home-brew settings of our own, as well as creating a wealth of resources for our play (as well as to share with people eventually).

And because I want there to be no miscommunication:

Sexist, racist, or otherwise offensive remarks and opinions being espoused, or offensive behavior towards other players at any point will result in ejection.
Murder hobo'ing, meta-gaming, and being overly vulgar just for the heck of it, are all big no-no's.
More generally, don't be a creep. Act responsibly.
If I, in any capacity, ever offend or make anyone uncomfortable, or don't handle an issue that arises in a way that you feel encourages your continued participation please let me know.

And then, of course, I want us to all get along. Hopefully, we will, but no way to know until we've met!
Thanks, and hope to game with ya' soon!

A NEWBIE TV WRITER’S EXPERIENCE WITH THE BLACK LIST (Website)

Firstly, I want to make note that The Black List should be used as a TOOL only. From my past research, it shouldn’t be viewed as a way to get staffed, to find management, or to finally land that big break. While these scenarios ARE possible on TBL... those outcomes, in my experience, are highly improbable. Let me explain…
MY JOURNEY:
I decided to finally take my pilot out for a tour in early 2020, starting with TBL. The partnerships (Sundance, Google, various diversity programs) and the fact that TBL was run by a Black man -- I’m a person of color as well -- were huge draws. There was also a bit of confusion between the website, The Black List, and the annual Black List (released and voted on by Agents, Managers, Network Execs, etc.). However, after a deep dive on Reddit, I came to understand the difference between the two (if you need more info, please click here). This was my first red flag in regards to the shadiness of TBL...
The first time I purchased an evaluation, I bought with my WGA discount, which equals around $60/eval. Note, this was also a red flag at the time, because those who can afford the full amount (WGA members), were being offered a discount, while those from more under-VALUED communities, had to pay full price. I’ve worked in the industry for over 12 years, and I can honestly say... “This is the epitome of what’s wrong with Hollywood.” But, I continued on…
Thanks to Reddit, I learned that you should purchase evaluations in groups of 2. Why? It’s because you need at least 2 Scores (2 evals minimum) to be listed on the Top Lists, IF you place. So, buying just one eval when you’re starting out, sort of gets you nowhere. The second part of this is the elusive “8” score. An “8” means the reader “recommends” your script. TBL publicizes an “8” as a golden ticket. I can humblebrag and say that my script received two 8’s. However, more red flags come when some people receive that score. Here are the deets:
Each time I’ve received an “8,” I can get two free evals. I can honestly say that each of those evals (four total) came back at significantly lower scores. In some score components, I’ve received 7s, 8s, and 9s. Within those same components (on the free evals), I’ve received 4s, 5s, and 6s. How do you go from 9s to 4s? This leads me to the biggest complaint… TRANSPARENCY. I’m a gay Black writer. Most of what I write, falls along the lines of my life experiences. While some readers on TBL can completely identify with my stories, over 80% of the industry is straight, White, and male, leading me to …what is the demographic of the readers reviewing my script? And, why is it's kept such a secret?
Long story short, I took the “L’s” I received from the free evaluations, which LOWERED my Top List score significantly. Then, more red flags began to present themselves…
When you receive an “8,” you also get a Twitter blast from TBL’s Twitter page. This was super exciting, because it allows you to retweet TBL saying your script is hella dope! However, when the tweet was published, there was a significant typo. My first thought? This is 2020 and businesses are stretched pretty thin. However, when I reported the typo to TBL Customer Service, I was told that there was nothing they could do. And, I quote from Customer Service: “While we cannot edit the screenshot in the tweet, the [typo] does not appear to be visible in your logline.” I just want to highlight -- their response to an error on their end (after I’ve already spent hundreds of dollars on evals), was to say that at least my logline was correct on their site, even though it was incorrect (and embarrassingly so) on their Twitter page?! What business does that?
The problems don’t end there. I received another “8” months later, and… NO Twitter blast at all. I had to email TBL, after over a month of seeing nothing, to find out what the issue was. Here was their response: “Thank you for your patience. We're looking into the matter now and I will let you know once I have more information.” Unfortunately, I never heard back. I had to reach out AGAIN over a week later, and this was the 2nd response: “Thank you for your patience. We've had a backlog of promotional tweets, but we've doubled our posting frequency now so you should see yours within the next week”...come on!! We all know that’s BS and bad business. Not at any point did I receive an apology or even true acknowledgment re: TBL’s errors. Honestly, using TBL feels like I’m playing the slots in Vegas with no idea on whether the machine is rigged or not, because #TRANSPARENCY.
My next complaint/red flag is in regards to the level of treatment between Pilots and Features. When you go to the industry page, you’ll see Top Genre Lists (Diverse Writes, Scripts with Female Leads, Featured Scripts, etc.). At a glance, this page is a great opportunity (if featured). However, pilot scripts aren’t listed on the main page. Even though I pay the same as Feature writers to host their scripts on TBL, you have to go through additional steps to even SEE the TV pilots. You have to manually switch the platform to “Pilots”... features being the default page. This is grossly UNFAIR and needs to be addressed immediately.
Last (but significant) red flag -- TBL will tell you that there’s no way to cheat the system. As an insider in Hollywood, I know this is false, and went out to find evidence. (Note, this is after realizing that celebrities like Shia Labeouf, are also hosting scripts on TBL). Here’s the scoop…
I have a friend who’s been listed on TBL for years (and currently staffed on a TV show, without the help of TBL). After doing research and reading interviews from Franklin Leonard (TBL Owner), who said that TBL system can’t be cheated, I asked my friend what their experience was at the beginning of my journey. She said that she has gotten friends, who are “Industry” members of TBL, to give her higher scores in the past. She showed me her profile and could track each one. A “9” here… an “8” there. While these scores aren’t as strong as “Reader” scores, they can push you up the Top List ranks, possibly getting more eyeballs on your work. And since this isn’t a “blind system,” popularity/fame can directly influence your scores on TBL. There is DEFINITELY some inequality happening, where well known writers have an advantage over phenomenal writers with no industry connections. The fact that this isn’t addressed, or even worse... the fact that we are gaslit by Franklin Leonard on the topic, is extremely concerning. And I say this with a broken heart, as a Black creator who wanted to support another.
Also, if you’re asking the question: why didn’t she/he/they report the discrepancies in scoring (receiving 4s and 5s for the same categories I’ve scored 8s and 9s in, with the same script)... I did. Here is TBL’s response:
“Thank you for reaching out. Evaluating scripts is always going to be a highly subjective process, and what works for one reader may not work as well for another. Our readers are only given a limited amount of space in which to complete their evaluations, and they cannot comment on every single aspect of a script. We ask readers to comment on elements of the script that, if different, would significantly alter the overall score for the script. Even Oscar-winning scripts like JUNO and ARGO have received some lower ratings on the site.”
Note, this is after their website says to report any extremely divergent scores (a “4” vs a “9”). Their unwillingness to even address their own company policies, is once again, a red flag.
TBL TIPS:

Buy evaluations in groups of 2 (for Top Lists and Scoring).
As I said above, TBL feels like gambling in Vegas. Everything about the platform encourages you to keep buying evaluations (the burden being on those from poorer communities), trying to hit that “8.” Therefore, make sure to budget and know when to call it quits/pause, so you can address notes fully before resubmitting.
Re: Notes -- Don’t change up your entire script based on a couple of reader reviews. Learn to “read between the notes.” Are there patterns? Does the reader have the cultural knowledge to understand your story? I say this because I’ve received conflicting notes (over the stretch of my 10+ reviews). One reader will say they love the plot and pacing of the story (received a “9”), while another reader hates it (and gives it a 4, 5, or 6).
Understand that TBL is a “Gold Star System.” Even though the level of respect for TBL (mostly because of industry assistants voicing their issues) is slightly weigning, it still highlights your skill level as a writer. If you’re looking to staff or even sell your pilot, an “8” or higher on TBL still carries weight if you’re cold calling/emailing industry people. Even if you don’t receive an 8, the evals are helpful for industry people to understand your potential. But, TBL is only a fraction of what you need to move up in this biz.
If your initial script receives a “6” or below, I recommend taking some time to rewrite before resubmitting. Is it possible that a different reader would rate that script much higher? Yes! However, like Vegas, it’s a probability game. Give yourself the BEST CHANCE, each time, before buying more evals. Don’t fall into the trap! I’ve been there now, and have done it all. In 2020, I’ve spent almost $800 on just TBL evals alone (not including competitions and etc)... during a pandemic.
- Also, if you’re wondering... $800 (and two “8s”) has only gotten me around 10 Industry downloads and around 90 views in over nine months. No meetings or opportunities as of yet.

CONCLUSION:
I want to stress that The Black List isn’t the devil. Like most of the conclusions on Reddit, it’s what you make of it. Don’t go in with high expectations. Treat it as a part of your script’s “campaign” …just another resource on how to get your ideas out there. For me, TRANSPARENCY is must for sites like this… especially with all the changes and revelations in 2020. There’s no excuse… at all. Do I constantly feel like I’m being taken advantage of by the TBL? 100%. But, I also know for fact -- in this industry, success is gained by putting your eggs in ALL the baskets (and not just TBL).
Feel free to ask me any questions!
