It was a fairly good run, wasn’t it? “The Curse of Thursday Night Football” that had descended last year had lost its way for most of 2018. Well, it’s back and it’s taking no prisoners tonight. So shutter your windows, bar the doors and maybe explore other entertainment options. There’s the NHL (It’s the Penguins vs. the Leafs, co-starring a bathtub full of announcer’s saliva!), the NBA (Lebron, he’s a Laker!) and the MLB (Will the Sawkz close out?). NCAA Football (A bunch of states play each other with Stanford thrown in) Hmmm. Somehow I think I’ll end up watching the travesty unfold in Arizona. TO THE GAME!
Broncos/Cards:
These squadoos each have no fear that the phrase ‘playoff contention’ will be linked with them in a serious way this season. It’s full ahead at all possible speed on the rails of mediocrity for these two. There’s a few fellas that might not around for the full ride though. Internet noise says that Arizona OC Mike McCoy (who, in his long and glorious career has never had a top 15 rushing attack, ever) is a distant memory by tomorrow afternoon. Not to be outdone, the buzz surrounding Denver insists that Vance Joseph is walking a tightrope and will be soon taking a fall. Surprisingly, the Cards signing of Kendall Wright-the goal of which was to shore up a very poor passing game-is all for naught just two weeks into his reign. He gone. This is the sort of fallout that occurs when teams have but 3 wins in a combined 12 tries.
Do your best.
under my money league scoring system, the Donks D/ST has 40 points right now
Kaepernick’s attorney has this on DVR as exhibit #72
Oof, based on this game, Drew picked the wrong day to post this:

I thought picking up Seals-Jones to cover my bye week was a good pick up. Or at least good enough.
Rosen can’t seem to keep the ball on offense long enough to make it work, however.
On the bright side, if he keeps doing that, they’ll stay on offense I guess and eventually everybody else will get tired and Seals-Jones can just kick him in the nuts and take the ball from him.

We’ll get those 6 or 7 wins after all, and miss any chance at Ryan Finley!
/tis ok, we need ILB and CB help, plus if a LT is available, maybe Mongo wouldn’t shit his pants at RT
This crowd would be getting ugly if not for so much mango and navy in the stands.
I would argue that the Broncos fans are what *makes* the crowd ugly.
that’s cause ur MEAN
I’ve been very angry lately. I almost told a deadspin commenter who said my baseball analogy for a cricket incident was “terrible” that I hoped “someone you love very much dies tonight, and it ends up being your fault.”
And you would have been right to do so!
Probably that nasty SoCal autumn.
on the Porn-stars vs Trees game.
Jesus Christ, this QB su…oh right. Sorry about that
Moses Bush!!
Second DERP. Same as the first. A little bit louder and a little bit DERP.
Wait, how many of you benched the Donk’s D?
ive played them at least twice this year in spot picks and got burnt so they got cut long ago
You played the Broncs D. Kudos!
Rosen Vs Peterman lets rock
And we’re now into snuff film territory.
havent see this many lifeless birds since the exxon valdez
2 defensive scores on my bench!!! LMFAO, I love you Donks.
Sweet jesus fuck it’s still the first quarter
let johnson qb
I am attempting to find a picture of a man in a suit with his arms in the air for a Photoshop and have had poor luck, so now I’m getting creative. Naturally, “pinstripe suit YMCA” had this as one of the first results.
Looks like Dennis.
Sexy
This is my work background.
That’s wonderful.
Angle is off just enough though.
Little warning there, amigo, that’s a definite epileptic seizure trigger…
I liked that he permed his hair for tonight’s game.
John Elway aggressively spitting chew is fairly horrific
he’s a horse, they chew cud, don’t be RAYCESS smh
Nacho was a Donk?
It was brief, but beautiful.
I totally forgot there was (is?) a Browns GM who became a P*ts assistant coach.
Anyway … How y’all doing?
The ATL Dirty Bird would be totally at home if the Cards still played in Tempe.
Sup
pertime!
Blaxito gotta each. No aneurisms yet; just pausing my comments.
Oh, right, David Johnson, the guy all the fantasy experts were insisting should go #1. I’d heard so little about him this season I assumed he’d gotten hurt or something.
JohnsonDOWN be fine, I need MOAR SandersPOINTS anyway
BEERGH gazes upon the game, yawns lazily.
Still, congrats to Fitty on his 1st catch of the season.

He was still crawling forward when Peko left his feet!
Josh Rosen even be a little…cocky?
No wait, I’m sorry, people don’t like him because he’s a Globalist.
He’s come unsheathed
I look forward to the Trees smashing ESPN’s Herm Narrative.
/also #HAILGAMBLOR
Phoenix is the center of the gridiron universe tonight!
So this is how the heat death of the universe begins.
“Screens will open something up!”
-M McCoy
-Polish Submarine Commanders
7 plays for five yards, a pick-six, and a punt.
The McCoy Experience!
The funny thing is that Frank Reich, who used to call the plays for McCoy is now a head coach. The Colts have nothing to worry about!
Indianapolis has nothing to fear from the Reich? No shit.
WOW, imagine that. Get Johnson the ball in space!
They’re bad at all the things
Evergreen
she really is perfect, not that I noe who that young lady is ,, smh
Bruce Arians is firing his revolver in the air….he also has on no pants and the CVS cashier is asking him to leave.
Is his Kangol okay?
I’m calling the flagship post game show tonight, ripping Bidwill, telling them to just move this dumpster fire to LA, and then preemptively questioning the hosts’ integrity in their response because they’re all paid to be homers for this franchise.
This Arizona crowd sure loves their Broncos!
It’s the white unis.
No ponchos in this league!
Is that a real poncho, I mean is that a Mexican poncho, or is that a Sears poncho?
Cards GM just offered a second rounder for that QB they rarely use.
Courtland Sutton is legit, awesome body control there. Probably one helluva lover (no homo).
ASU could probably beat the Cards right now. Hell, University of Phoenix Online probably has a solid shot.
SandersDOWN weird way WOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice work on both ends of that pass.
How in the hell does a Denver Bronco has the number 30? A running back even!
yeah, talk shit after giving up a 20+ yard gain, dipshit
Arizona’s d is still tired from being on the field for 80% of their first six games.
the worst is that am going to miss watching Football sometime in March.
I start missing it the second the Divisional Round ends.
Aren’t you excited for the San Antonio Commanders of the Alliance of American Football? Season begins February 9th!
I thought we agreed to call the San Antonio Fryers?
I was kinda drunky that night and forgot until you just mentioned it.
Donks WOO!!! ppl get so jacked up about the fullback, it’s almost like being with the #BFIB.
Both teams pretty obviously will want to run 70% of the time, but will end up throwing to hilarious results.
I wish Fantasy would default to not penalizing QBs for turnovers. Just because it would cause a big rift between fans and team fans when FF owners were like, “Oh yeah, Bortles gets huge yards! MVP!” And then that JAX fan is like, “fuck that TO machine!”
