It’s been a longer week than I expected as I await the results of the second game of the season. Because of this unusual quest from January to an actual football game, I hadn’t properly prepared for how much of a relief it was for NFL reality to finally hit. But I need the second dose.
One game is one game. A second and that’s when you’re actually getting to know the type of team and season and players ahead. To have those two reference points, it remains a sample size of miniature matter, but it is substantially more than one.
