The NFL season is rapidly coming to a close and it’s time for an amnesia check.

Do you remember when Indianapolis quarterback Andrew Luck was overrated, a bust, and never going to come back?

Do you remember when Jacksonville beat New England and we thought those were two teams passing in the night?

Do you remember when Richard Sherman and a bunch of former Seattle Seahawks were pouring dirt in their former team?

Do you remember in Week 2 when the New Orleans Saints were about to close to the Cleveland Browns and go to 0-2 to start the season and how the season was nearing toilet status?

Do you remember how rookie quarterback Sam Darnold of the New York Jets was being compared to Joe Namath?

Anyone who thinks they can figure out the NFL is lying to someone, especially themselves. Every week is open season to overreact and the league is such a week-to-week existence that we tend to lose sight of all that has happened.

The Colts started 1-5 and now are in the playoff race. Baker Mayfield wasn’t even a starter at the beginning of the season and now he’s a foundational player. The Dallas Cowboys were bad, then they were good, then they got shut out for the first time since Quincy Carter was the quarterback.

The two teams in Los Angeles? One of them was great and the other was an afterthought. Now, one of the them looks disorganized and the other is on a roll.

Week to week, the Saints seem to forget to bring their offense for the first half.

The lesson? We just don’t know. Nobody knows.
