Puzzle: Eli’s Vocabulary Quiz – AFC East and West

Hey guys, it’s Eli again.  Thanks for the help on last week’s vocab quiz.  Coach McAdoo said I did a real good job, so he gave me some more.  I didn’t want to bother you guys again, so I tried asking my wide receivers – “The Cruise” and “Reuben Randlewich” (ha ha) and Odell (I started calling him O’Smell but he got real mad and said if I kept it up I was gonna get “IKO’d”, whatever that means, so I won’t do it anymore, but I was just teasing!) – but they weren’t much help.  So then I asked Larry Donnell if he could help me with my assignment and he just looked at me like that scene in Goosebumps when Zach sees the mermaid for the first time and shook his head and said “you’re a quarterback, you don’t have any assignments” and went off to talk to Kevin Gilbride.  I even asked Owamagbe Odighizuwa but he said he was too busy watching tribadism videos, I guess maybe that has something to do with his family back in Nigeria?  Anyhow, I’m getting pretty desperate.  Can you guys help me out again?

Never mind the puzzle. Bless you for using Comic Sans on an Eli post!

I got half of them right before having to look up definitions. I am happy with that. Gonna give myself a gold star or two,

I guarantee Eli calls Owamagbe Odighizuwa “Owie” for short.

Better than what Riley Cooper calls him,

Did he ever finish the maze on the Happy Meal placemat?

Most of these words like subhuman, incarcerated, and insufferable apply to the Patriots. I’m out.

I had the most trouble deciding between incarcerated and subhuman for the Raiders.

Me too, until I realized it said “vertiginious” instead of “vestigial”.
