The merciless ticking of the clock in the final week of the 86th Texas Legislature has signaled death by deadline for most of the session's bills. That's cause for celebration when it thwarts measures that would limit local control, harm workers, ban abortion, and add obstacles to voting.
Despite much citizen-driven uproar last week, including more than 200 witnesses testifying in opposition to Senate Bill 9, the House Elections Committee quietly approved the bill on party lines on Friday. However, the legislation, which would have made felonies out of the most minor errors in voter registration or assistance, withered after it failed to appear on the House calendar this week. Also stumbling before making its way to the House floor was SB 1033, which would have barred abortions (that are now legal) after 20 weeks of pregnancy when the fetus has a 'severe and irreversible' abnormality. Measures that sought to slap down attempts by local governments to mandate paid sick leave and other worker protections never made it to the House finish line either, making them as good as dead for now. Same goes for legislation (SB 1663) that could have made it difficult or impossible to move or remove Confederate memorials. Good riddance to the bunch.
However, it ain't sine die quite yet – and the question remains: Will bad bills rise up from the grave as amendments to other bills before the session ends on Memorial Day, or appear in a possible special session? Stay tuned.

Josh Allen might have finally done what many in western New York have longed to see. Allen has forced Pro Football Focus into calling him 'an anomaly' in terms of their analysis of his abilities.
Following Week 3 of NFL action, Allen was the first 'takeaway' in the analytics outlet's entire NFL recap from the weekend that was. In that, PFF notes that Allen's passing grade was their fourth-worst and sixth-worst in his first two pro seasons, respectively. Then, the good news comes flowing in. Themes lab for keynote 5 1 3.
PFF's admission: Hands off 4 4 26.

Through three weeks of play in 2020, Allen has the third-lowest rate of uncatchable passes thrown over 10 yards downfield. He has benefitted from a lot of those targets being open thanks to the slew of separators he has in the receiving unit, but Allen has also been sharp on the throws he has had to make to a tight window. This has helped the third-year quarterback produce an 83.9 passing grade over the first three weeks, fifth in the NFL. His Week 3 outing against the Rams was actually his highest-graded game as a passer of his NFL career.

As my colleague Kevin Cole wrote about this offseason, it's extremely rare for a quarterback to break out in their third year, making Allen, at least up until this point, an anomaly.

PFF is certainly a group that's been tough on Allen's first two seasons as a pro, and even with how subjective their numbers can be, they were kind of right on Allen… previously. He was not a great passer in the first two years of his career, and that's what is making Allen's start to this year so fun.
But some folks in Buffalo will certainly love to see PFF calling Allen 'an anomaly.' It's the closest the analytics outlet has come to admitting they were wrong about his game… and maybe it's the closest we'll ever good. Allen has certainly made PFF look a bit suspect as of late, at least.
