Can you imagine waking up in your childhood bedroom as a winner of three-straight NFL games quarterbacking your home team?

The story of Tommy Devito simply does not feel real.

Every single weekday, the guys from Section 400 will be providing a rundown of everything that happened in sports the night, or weekend, before.

Let’s get into it.

Tommy Cutlets ya dig.

The first two months of the football season for me were a living hell.

Auburn was terrible, my fantasy team was (and still is) terrible, and my beloved New York Giants went from playoff team to laughing-stock. Then Tommy Devito happened.

Listen, this team is not going to make the playoffs (they still have the Birds twice and the Rams on the road), but Devito has given the Giants a buzz they dearly missed through the first 10 games of the season.

Tommy deserves a statue next to the Freedom Tower if he can somehow lead this team to four more wins in as many weeks. Even if he comes up short, he’s made New York football fun again.

One more quick side note; I do not care if the wins are giving them a worse pick in the draft. Winning is fun. If you weren’t going to be able to snag Caleb Williams anyway, who cares.

Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins may have just proved to the world who they are on primetime.

I got heat from Matt and Jack when I left Mike McDaniel’s team off of our Twitter poll asking who the best team in the AFC is. Last night shows you why I did such a thing.

Miami is a fun, offensively efficient squad without many holes. The problem is the Dolphins’ inability to play physical football, resulting in close second halves of games and losses against good teams.

The Tennessee Titans are not a good team by any stretch of the imagination, but they are a physical one.

That alone was enough to wear down a soft “Fins'” team last night, resulting in Will Levis and the Titans being the first team to come back from down 2 touchdowns with under three minutes to go since 2015.

Teams down 14 with under three minutes to go were 0-767 since 2016 until the Titans tonight 🤯 pic.twitter.com/uWGt964GHm

Fire the Pistons?

I haven’t really had a chance to point out the bad teams across sports because of the busy nature of the December calendar, but Monday’s slow basketball night gave me time to check on how things were going in Detroit.

The short answer to that question is not well. Losers of 20-straight games, Cade Cunningham and the Detroit Pistons are a league-worst 2-21 on the season.

Many consider Christmas to be the true “gauging moment” for the NBA. Much like Memorial Day for baseball or Thanksgiving for the NHL, Christmas normally tells us which basketball teams truly have a shot to win the Finals.

The Pistons barely made it into December.

This squad is bad, with no real vision of what they want to be or who their leader is. Cade Cunningham is great, but he lacks the offensive gumption to lead Detroit to a winning record.

We’ll see where the Pistons go from here, but 20 losses in a row is really horrendous.
