Only three games to preview in this window but dare I say that we don’t have a dumb throwaway game in the troika? Can the Raiders actually be ‘real’? If they are they’d be putting some new blood into an ages-old rivalry. The Saints/Rams will have a number of non-fans of either teams watching the game-and not just because they can’t view any other by conventional means. And for the purposes of my theory, Bears/Bronc’s is salient due to, uh, um, THE BATTLE OF THE “B” TEAMS! Yeah, that’s it. TO THE GAMES!
Almost L.V./KC:
Are we witnessing the resurrection of the formerly dynamic [waves to nomonkeyfun] Derek Carr? Perhaps. The odds of him showing out (in a respectable, clean shirt and tie kind of way) look very good vs. a Chiefs secondary that gives the farm and TD’s away on a weekly basis. Up and down Sammy Watkins is making the best of this Hill-less wr corps. Will rook Mecole Hardman do the same?
Chi/Den:
The [looks up synonyms for dynamic] zestful and potent Truthbiscuit had a nasty 62.1 QB rating last week, only Jameis prevented him from occupying the basement in that stat category. And now he’s up against a former DC, now head coach in Vic Fangio that saw him quite a bit during the latter’s tenure in the Windy City. I don’t like his chances.
Saints/Rams:
Hey Gurley owners! Your fella had a whole ‘zero’ touches in the red zone last week. Although I’m sure he’d have been able to fend off Scott Hanson’s advances were it to have occurred. Is the coaching staff just being careful with usage or is Brown the goal line back now? Stay tuned for the answer today. Spirited and vigorous Jared Goff made sure that Cooper Kupp started exactly where he left off before he went down last year-though he only had 46 yards he was targeted 10 times.
[mutters to self, That oughtta shut those guys up] Hey folks, enjoy the games and just remember, I’m not a closet racist! [Crap! Did I really just type that?]
Finally going back into work tomorrow after taking all of last week off except for Tuesday morning, Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning. So refreshed!
I’m only four songs in, but, the new Tool album kicks ass.
Just wait till you get to the Robertson Screwdriver Concerto. It’ll turn you right round baby, right round!
Like a record?
Ah, what’s a record?
Mr. Nel concurs.
He has good taste!

My God, my God, why have you abandoned me? – all of N’Awlins
God’s revenge for all the sodomy and spicy foods.
at least that horrid roughing call made the FG much shorter
Bolles AGAIN
Buster has made maybe ONE good throw all game. The NFC is a dumpster fire.
“I was promised marshmallows.”
-Eli
“Can I get another marshmallow?”
—GEICO lizard.
A dumpster fire would at least leave me feeling warm.
way to completely ignore Cooks, you motherfuckers
bullshit call is bullshit
Marshawn Lynch is on the NASCAR broadcast and he’s awesome!!
Marshawn is announcing NASCAR? I’ll bet they pass off coverage to Stephen Gilmore at the last moment.
Emoception!
That’s Rikki’s Raiders!
David Carr And The Infinite Sadness
This just in – Denver might not be very good, y’all.
“Agreed.”
-Last Week
More like Donever amirit
[pours a sip out on the concrete for all the poor, deluded Raiders fans who thought their team had a chance against the Chiefs]
might have something in Josh Jacobs, though
SERIOUSLY?? FOUR holding pennos against Bolles? That’s ridiculous even for him.
They need to cut off his thumbs.
but enough about my GAMBLOR…
Breesus not ded?
Edit: he ded.
Did not expect him to rise til the 3rd Quarter
3 days went fast, yo
pretty shitty window, damn these 10/3 splits
In a league featuring the Browns, Jets, Raiders, Bengals, Browns, and Bills, do the Dolphins even make it as the worst team?
The Bills are the second-best team in that division.
Excuse me while I go mix bleach and ammonia in the tub.

4th and 22? NFL BLITZ!
I’m still on Team Romo because I like him and I’m trying to be ‘current’.
LOLphins have been outscored 102-10 through two games.
only because the Ratbirds took it easy on ’em
Let’s talk about your GILF tendencies instead.
Apparently the ‘phins also had less yards on offense than we had on the two pick sixes 😀
“Not me.” – Wilbur Ross, frowning at the price of a 50-pack of Sweet n Low.
‘Aints getting screwed by the refs. Again.
Mate, look at that game again – only thing that really screwed the Saints is that Sean P’s awful playcalling wasn’t offset yet again by high-end talent… or as people call it “The Pittsburgh Way”
What was the line on the LOLphins game? Jeebus.
19, which is beyond absurd for a visiting side. And I bet Vegas still lost a ton.
Not enough. It was a double cover of +19.
The line for the Pats/Fins was not a number, it was an adjustable loop.
“Who is this Hardman kid?”
-everyone that drafted/picked up Robinson
“Who is this Robinson kid?”
-Everyone that drafted/picked up Mecole Hardman
Rams and Saints killing eachother while the rest of the playoff hopefuls start licking their chops
While the P*ts lick their chops, let’s be real.
yep, nobody else has a chance
Oh, come on, it’s not like the Pats are always going to the SuperbOwl… ie.. 50, we weren’t there, y’know! Nor at 48…
Bridgewater is better than Cousins.
So it’s 1st and goal, clock winding down in the 4th quarter, running game is kicking ass.
What does our idiot fucking quarterback do?
Throws an interception into triple fucking coverage.
Fuck that pathetic piece of shit with Betty Whites dick!
Roseanne’s greatest gift to comedy was being forced out of The Conners.
I dunno, her career ending twitter meltdown was pretty fucking hilarious in a she’s-getting-what-she-deserves kind of way
Joe Cool? No one has ever called Flacco that, right?
Not on purpose.
I larfed at the guy that drafted Jared Cook in our league. He’s such a goddamn bum.
Really? He was pretty much the only good thing about the Raiders last season.
As I said…
CARRCOPTER
Breesus, he die?
For our sins.
His thumb sacrificed itself so that Teddy Bridgewater’s knee could live
Also fuck $13 beers
I guess, if you’re brave enough.
I have. Way too ‘sloshy’.
Fuck KC, AB and any other two letters people wanna toss out
I too hate Kellyanne Conway.
Some Robinson kid gets the KC TD.
They should just replace the Bears-Broncos game with the Joe Biden Corn Pop story on loop
TheMarcusDOWN!!
And back in Dublin, y’all… So, uhh… Dolphins really want Tua, eh? If they couldn’t win agains the Pats at home XD
yeah, but ARSENAL, yo. Woof.
But Arsenal.. what? Disappointment down the stretch.. Puhleeeeeeze, that’s the default end-state of any Arsenal game :p
Dublin in Ireland, or some other, pretend Dublin?
Only Dublin that matters, mate…. SOUTH Dublin, Ireland :p
Is there a “Little Dublin” in Boston?
Probably, but whenever I’m in the greater Boston area, I’m either working or too sloshed pre or post-game to care 😀
Everyone knows the real division these days is east/west 😛
I too am back Dublin’.
[has a beer in each hand]
After this Dolphins season Hootie is going to take over for Robert Smith in the Cure
Derek Carr will really have a reason to be unhappy then.
This is some underwhelming shit so far
Gopher, Everett??
From this week’s Battlebots: “This is a guy who is looking for more giant nuts…”
Hehe.
The annual shitshow of Tits/Jags is this Thursday?
Is most Holy Thursday of Thursday fixtures, inshallah!
Yeah, CBS is really trying to polish that turd, as if a Tits/Jags game is anything but a crime against Gamblor and FOOTBAW! At least… it’s a colour rush one, right?
Props to bk109 for reminding me to start New England’s defense to the tune of 37 points.
Nice humblebrag-by-proxy.
In DFO-ball, I used the Jest week 1, P*ts week 2. It’s helping me achieve my goal of being even MOAR despised by my fellow men.
D-O-N-K-S!!!!
Apologies to all commenters. I’m flummoxed by a one hour difference in time zones, at times.
Don’t go to Russia, they have eleven.
Done!

So, Lucille, how does the Stillers season look going forward?
