Cooper Kupp Casually Dropping Calculus Level Football Knowledge About The Play He Scored A Touchdown On Was Awesome

So Cooper Kupp made this play on Sunday. I remember seeing it and thinking "Cooper Kupp is so fucking good. He's quick, can catch, and has the speed to take it to the house. Why did the idiot Jaguars let Cooper Kupp do that to them?" 

Then Kupp broke down exactly what happened on that play and well, yeah.

I love hearing quotes like that because it hammers home just how little my dumb ass knows about football. When I set my fantasy lineup and responsibly make my bets on the Barstool Sportsbook, I see nothing but winners. BIG winners. I have figured out the entire week if not season in my mind based on a few plays and fancy numbers I read on Twitter.

Then once everything goes to shit by 1:05 PM ET, I wonder where everything went wrong. Turns out it's not because I got unlucky but because I didn't know that one of the teams was going to run a 3 Deep Fire Zone against my lock of the week without running a Replacement Fire Zone in the backend. Egg on my face I guess. Not that it makes a difference. I'm never going to understand terminology that isn't ripped directly from Madden. Like if Kupp said they ran Under Smoke and Stafford sniffed that bitch out then hit him on the Hot Route slant where you hit left on the analog stick, I'd be fine. But hearing an answer like the one he gave helps me sleep on Sunday night knowing that I will not be having a Victory Monday in any of my leagues.

Now if you will excuse me, I have to go check out the HQ sked, editorialize, then make sure everything is pubbed correctly (Just fancy smut blogger language for get this blog published at 2:20 PM since it's the next slot open in our scientific one blog every 10 or so minutes. I also have no fucking clue what editorialize actually means either).
