Well, here it is. Our favorite greatest coach ever gets his shot as the new(ish) head man of the Buffalo Bills. The Bills visit Met Life Stadium at 4-4 (2-1) against a surprisingly competent Jets team, who is 5-3 (3-1). I’m not sure I’m comfortable with living in a world where the Jets aren’t hilariously DERPy, but it appears that might be the case.
There’s been a bazillion and nine things already written about this, so I won’t really say too much. I think this game could be entertaining and fun. The Jets, behind Fitzpatrick (insert HAHHVAHHD joke here) and Chris Ivory have managed to move the ball well (and score lots of fantasy points for me in Sill’s Insanity League). Their defense is real. Todd Bowles deserves a lot of credit for having this team actually doing things right. The Bills haven’t been necessarily terrific, and when the lose, they fucking lose. That hasn’t stopped Bills fans from continuing to be the most insane fanbase in the NFL. When did this happen, by the way? Every week, Deadspin has another article on Monday, showcasing continued crezzy behavior from Bills fans. Is this something I was just never aware of? Philadelphia fans, Oakland fans, Washington fans? Yeah, we know those people are fucking nuts. But, Buffalo? Okay, sure, I guess?
Anyway, while it should be a fun and entertaining AFC East game-for-who-gets-finish-not-quite-as-far-behind-New-England, it’s still a Thursday night game, so it will be just terrible. It’s what we deserve. At least Buffalo still has pride!
*Credit to Commentist Entrophy for that magnificent which absolutely deserves more recognition.
Additionally, in the JV footed ball, we have the Battle of the Techs, which is one the most ACC-things possible on the TWWL. The Virginia Tech Castrated Turkeys travel to Atlanta to play the Georgia Tech Yellowjackets. Normally, I love college football night games. Hell, I make time for weekly #MACtion. But, seriously, fuck this game. Fuck Virginia Tech. Fuck Frank Beamer and his weird neck growth. I can’t really say anything about Georgia Tech. They’re a big letdown from last year, I guess? Who cares. The ACC is the AFC South of college football. For some reason, people think they deserve a spot at the big-boy table.
There’s probably hawkey and NBA on somewhere, too.
“The 33” seems like a movie that Peter Gallagher’s character would have come up with in “The Player”.
Hahahaha

So….I should just keep drinking until I think this is a really exciting hockey game, right?
Fun Fact: No team has missed a field goal against the Jets since 1841.

THANK ALLAH!
INSURMOUNTABLE EQUIVALENCY
Defense is supposed to bat the ball, offense is supposed to catch the ball. Right?
Only by tradition.
He didn’t somehow drop it, he just sucks.
“He’s a hand catcher?” As opposed to what, Phil? A dog catcher? Shut the fuck up.
From the announcing to the referees to the gameplay, this game is just terrible. Even by Thursday night standards.

I much prefer a well-made roast chicken over turkey, actually. But the rest, yeah, can’t beat that.

I appreciate you going down the Happy Endings gif wormhole for me. I would be there if you hadn’t done it for me based on a Casey Wilson drunk falling over pic
ALWAYS FUCKING INSIDE RUS ON FIRST DOWN
Do the Jets feel that running up the middle of first down is some kind of catechism?
“FIRST AND TEN, NEW YORK!”
“… Let us run…”
“UP THE MIDDLE”
“…and gain two yards…”
“AT A MAXIMUM..”
“FOR EVERYONE SEES THIS COMING, FOR EVER AND EVER, FOURTH DOWN.”
So mote it be
“AND LO THIS GATORADE BECOMES THE BLOOD OF OUR SAVIOR, WEEB EWBANK”
This game color scheme is saying the holiday season has begun
That’s right. Just keep running it inside on first down, Chan. They’ll always (never?) see it coming.

Uh oh Tierod!
I’m seriously waiting for a commentator to make a “loose tie rod” joke when the Bills offense is all over the field.
Now that you mention it, it seems inevitable. Unless they already have and it was cut out on tape delay.
Already hat this one in the chamber:

I like the stream I found. It’s good quality and it just says “Commercial break” instead of showing commercials.
That was how the Super Bowl was broadcast when I was in South Africa. It was nice.
I was watching one like that on Sunday, only I got a shit-brown background with a tarnished gold NFL shield on it. Most apt presentation of the shield I’d ever seen.
Anyone else forced to watch this on NFL mobile, apparently on a 7 minute delay?
That’s not a delay, it’s just that every play has basically the same outcome.

I don’t think the Jets have ever run that play and actually given the ball to the motion back.
“You can DO that?”
–every Jets offensive coordinator.
They can only do that if the play were named after them.
I don’t mean this as an indictment of Darth Vader’s sense of imagination, but Obi Wan didn’t really become all that powerful.
True, but “If you strike me down, I will glow blue until the end of the trilogy” doesn’t have that same dramatic flair, y’know?
Obi-Wan pretty much lied about everything throughout the sexlogy.
Worst. Jedi. Mentor. EVAR
So rain, short week, defensive orientated teams, so-so offense, I hope you guys think scoring more than 10 points in a game is a travesty.
Goodell is pleased.
Did Anne Hathaway just tell me to kill myself in that commercial?
I think that was Anna Kendrick.
Yea I guess it was. They don’t even look that much alike.

I can’t quite figure out what’s going on in this play. I think there are too many men on the field.
