On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Matt buys a website, Paul sings a song, and JR laments being the only one never to be on SportsCenter, which is, to be honest, pretty ridiculous.  They also break down the win over the Dolphins! The luck! The good plays! The bad plays! The potentially crushing injuries to Christian Watson, Yosh Nijman, and Keisean Nixon! The far less crushing injury to Dean Lowry. And why Bo Melton is terrible, and playing for Rutgers isn’t an excuse, but is another data point in favor of a player being terrible.  They also go over the Elgton Jenkins extension, the amazing Allen Lazard block, some analytical shenanigans by the Dolphins, the Marcedes Lewis game, the nature of old age, and, of course, listener questions!  Happy New Year everyone!

On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, Matt, and JR go over the Bears game, and just what this win means.

They also discuss crappy Bears quarterbacks, if Justin Fields is good, whether the Bears stopped him from running on purpose, Jack Sanborn’s ascent, AJ Dillon’s ascent, and whether Christian Watson’s ceiling is Tyreek Hill or Randy Moss. Finally, the guys take questions, including those about stickiness, itchiness, Homestar Runner, and bye week shenanigans on Lake Minnetonka. Plus, tiebreakers! Learn more about your ad choices.
