Let me be the first to wish you a happy 2025 and let me also be the first to suggest eschewing the typical New Year’s resolutions in favor of something more simple: In every moment, let’s just try a little harder to love and appreciate one another; to work just a little bit harder and to care a little bit less about what other people think. After years of trying to do the life equivalent of running a marathon with no training, I’ve become a big fan of marginal gains.
The Week 17 slate wasn’t necessarily beautiful or even decisive in giving us much of a clearer look at the playoff picture. But it did give us A.J. Brown firing poor Tanner McKee’s first career touchdown pass 30 rows into the Philadelphia sky (the guy gave it back for a signed jersey).
