Your “Playoffs? Fantasy Playoffs!?” Sunday Funday NFL Football Open Thread

Unless you’re in a lesser league that actually has a championship in week 17 when playoff-bound teams are resting their stars or getting them off the field as quickly as possible, your fantasy dream of winning a non-existent-in-real-life trophy begins for serious today. I’m not under much pressure in one money league, having finished 9th and all but in t’udder one I’m up against the #2 seed who takes this stuff far too seriously. I’ve pondered it for a bit now and I’m going to do it-I’M STARTING WORLD ACCORDING TO GARPOLLO OVER CAM! I figure that either way I’ll have a tale to tell to whatever disinterested sap I corner at the next family get-together. Kidding! Why would I talk about that crap IRL? TO THE GAMES!

Ind/Buf: The Bills rushing O is ranked 8th and rb McCoy should have no problem getting going against a Colts team that gave up the ghost well before Halloween. Qb Peterman is back to distribute the ball equally between both teams.

Chi/Cin: This one looks like a keeper. This tilt is between the two worst offenses yards per game-wise in the whole of the league. Maybe TruthBiscuit will pass more than 12 times!

GB/Cle: The Pack can say they’re in the playoff hunt at 6-6 with the Cowboys and the Lions despite the fact that Seattle and Carolina are 8-4 and Atlanta sits at 7-5. I guess YA GOTTA BRIE-LIEF! The Brownskis are running out of chances to insert a 1 into the W column.

Oak/KC: Flag-heaving cb Peters is out for this battle of the .500’s. Wr Cooper is still out as well but Crabtree is back and should be matched against not-quite-in-game-shape-just-yet cb Revis. Can qb Carr get his first win at Arrowhead?

Dal/NYG: Eli is back in the saddle again-can he be the next Rocking Horse Winner? D.H. Lawrence says the odds are slim. But who knows, maybe the Giants players have a little “Fuck You, McAdoo!” tucked away in their arsenal.

Det/TB: The Leos have frittered away a comfy 6-4 record by losing their last two. Qb Stafford’s hand was not able to dodge a Ravens’ cleat last week but Fatty has been avoiding questions about his damaged appendage all week long. Apparently he practiced on Friday so the Jake Rudock Era will just have to wait for at least another 7 days.

Min/Car: The Keenum/Thielin combo has been quite the revelation this year and rb Murray is starting to reap the benefits-he’s tallied over 75 yards rushing over his last 3 outings. The Panthers have won 4 of 5 but the sked (Saints last week, Minny today) is doing them no favours whatsoever.

SF/Hou: 2-10 vs. 4-8? No thank you! (Go Jimmy, Go!)

Tap away Gents/Ladies.

Jesus Fucking Christ the Raiders are beyond pathetic today.

Doktor Zymm

So….you’re saying tickets for next week may be dropping in price as we speak?

Gratliff

Oh Cowboys

King Hippo

JEEEEEEEEBUS, Bailey

theeWeeBabySeamus

Dammit Buffalo!!!!

Doktor Zymm

Fumbaroo!

Senor Weaselo

Tackling, Giants. Do that.

Sharkbait

I think the entire bar just screamed that

The Maestro

Despite the fact that I am apparently too intoxicated to remember today’s date, I am so far winning most of my fantasy matchups. So there’s that… Not to mention all this food here…

Sharkbait

Typical Sunday

Viva La Tabula Raza

Actress that plays goth chick on NCIS is 48 years old. You’d think she’d have grown out of that phase by now.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

She’s been super nice to a friend of mine who works in TV so I am actually a fan of hers.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

My “friend who works in TV” I DIDN’T KNOW YOU DID PORN!

Doktor Zymm

Maybe she’s just being thrifty and working her way through a 40 year supply of eyeliner

theeWeeBabySeamus

She’s fine, you leave her alone.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Fits in with the believability of the whole show.

Gratliff

I have such a unique hatred for that character, possibly more than the cast of Big Bang Theory

theeWeeBabySeamus

Actually, she’s got a well-paying gig.
She’d have to be pretty stupid to outgrow it.

King Hippo

#ThePauls StriveFOAR1

Gratliff

Holy shit, Pack. You’re done.

ArmedandHammered

I don’t think Savage is going to get his starting job back. Yates having one of his rare flashes of competence.

Dick E. Phuck

Someone take these 49ers to Hopkins for emergency surgery, because they are getting carved up by Savage.

ArmedandHammered

Actually it’s Yates doing the carving.

Dick E. Phuck

Tomato Tomahto.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

That fact ruins teh joke. No time for facts.

ArmedandHammered

With that attitude you can be Trump’s press secretary.

Doktor Zymm

AAirport has the game on like a five minute delay

King Hippo

I need Hopkins to catch about 20 passes.

Dick E. Phuck

Typical Packers getting stuffed in Browns territory, smh.

Sharkbait

And then Aaron Rodgers woke up

JustStopDude
theeWeeBabySeamus

Hmmmm, guess I should have trusted Funchess.
Fuck you Mike Evans.

Gratliff

Holy shit, that backwards dodge from Cam was amazing

King Hippo

J. Peterman ded? WE CAN HAZ JOE WEBB??

rockingdog

The Maestro

I wanna take a nap before the Pats game but Lady Maestro is currently making some chocolate & salted caramel pretzel bark while I sit and watch the games. My life is such a hardship, people!

Viva La Tabula Raza

You can watch the Pats today? What time zone do you live in?

The Maestro

Wait is the game tomorrow? Fuck, I gotta lay off the beers.

King Hippo

’bout to say that nap qualifies as “coma”

rockingdog

Pats play tomorrow. MNF!

Viva La Tabula Raza

That was my understanding. I thought maybe Maestro lived in another dimension or the future or some shit.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Not funny; I laughed anyway.

King Hippo

true happiness comes from teh SOUL

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

“Lazy kid needs to pull himself up by his bootstraps.”

*Does not have shoes.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hee hee, Brissett needs snowshoes.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Not sure why the Chiefs bothered dressing a punter.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Naked punters are against mid-west values.

Gratliff

How is Jonathan Stewart only 30? I feel like he’s been there since the expansion

King Hippo

I should have gone to the local sports pub for the snow action, think it’s still got a hefty (pun quasi-intended) Bills contingent

rockingdog

I think Kelce should get an energy drink. he looks tired….
Maybe a jager bomb?

Doktor Zymm

Much like sexual harrassment, catches are about control

King Hippo

Miss Jackson if u nasty ,, ppl forget that

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

*gawldamit.

Sharkbait

I just found out my 24 year old brother in law has never done a jager bomb. I foresee bad decisions in the 4th quarter of the giants-boys game

Doktor Zymm

A jager bomb is already a bad decision, so…yes!

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Brother-in-law or brother in law?

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Could be both.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Eli getting all sneaky.

LOL last time 49ers had back to back wins was in 2009

So how is IND-BUF?

Doktor Zymm

gridlocked?

JustStopDude

Hilarious.

When the running back gets tackled, about half his body disappears into the snow.

King Hippo

punters earning they wedge

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Bill Musgrave canceled his Playboy subscription and has replaced them with Raider offense box scores.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

“He reads Raider offense box scores for the articles.”

theeWeeBabySeamus

@Hippo…you realize at this point we both deserve the loss, right?
Yikes.

Doktor Zymm

Qua???? You mean the is it a catch rule isn’t enforced consistently? YOU DON’T SAY

Gratliff

So much alcohol-fueled hypothermia in that Bills crowd. I wonder if anyone’s gonna die.

Doktor Zymm

nah, they’re pretty good about hospital sleeping bags

Col. Duke LaCross

Doesn’t the booze act as a sort of an antifreeze? They are drinking to live!

Dick E. Phuck

They’re from Buffalo. They’ve been dead on the inside since they were toddlers.

If he was my player, I’d be pissed right now.
Since he’s Hippo’s, it’s all good.

clint greasewood

I think in the 2nd half they are just going to put skis on LeSean McCoy and have Nate Peterman push him.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

As the Raiders head into the half without having scored a single point, remember that the New York Jets – the fucking JETS – put up 38 points on these Chiefs last week.

rockingdog

hahahaha FU cam newton. U only have 2 pts in FF so far……
Case Keenum has more rushing yrds than u…

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I have never seen a team that was worse at third and short than the Raiders have been this year.

King Hippo

fortunately, Denver is so bad at literally everything that one can’t really single anything out like that
