Why in the f*** would you purposely have a TE pass block an edge rusher? Like they had 82 set up as a pass blocker. Shockingly he gave up a sack.

It's so much different.

I remember going to Game 7 of Caps vs. Lightning and I was literally sick to my stomach until Burakovsky scored the 3-0 goal. My friend who was a Lightning fan literally couldn't watch the game because it was too stressful for him. I've never heard of a football fan getting stressed to the point where they can't watch the game no matter how high the stakes are yet it seems to be commonplace for hockey fans. I kind of get it because hockey is so dynamic while football is generally a slower build toward scoring. But still, kind of crazy.
 
Howell hung around too long again, had to know those routes weren't going to resolve in time and bootleg

or just make the wide open pass the play before.

good news is I like his arm and it doesn't seem like he's bad just has footwork and pocket stuff to work on.

It's a sort of nonstop suspense that even basketball doesn't have, and that sport goes pretty constantly too.

On the football front I'm not worried about a first game in a new offense with a raw QB. Yet. One expects more from this defensive lineup, but JDR is a washed up bum.

Yeah, basketball seems like it would be the closest pace-wise but because of the nature of the scoring you can't often look at moments in the second quarter and be like "that broke the game wide open" unless it's like a 20-0 scoring run.

The more you watch it the more you start to recognize that teams are "gaining a lead" playing their starters into the other team's bench, but that it's inherently unsustainable and the other team's starters will quickly steal it back. Unless a team just starts blowing it you can kind of see a few possessions ahead and who will start the next run. Basketball's pretty casually relaxed until the 4th quarter starts in earnest.
 
Unsurprising to be have three turnovers in a first half and be losing.
