Your “Twice in a Row Would be Nice” Thursday Night Football Open Thread

There were some fool-adjacent blowhards last week (me) that yakked from their gum disease-riddled mouths to the top of their phlegm-soaked lungs that last week’s game was going to be a stinker. So now I think we might be in line for another better than average tilt. Hey!, maybe I’ll type about it below! First though we just must make mention of newsy football stuff.

-In I Told You So News, Saquon isn’t human and will be back well before the 6-8 week outlook. Reports are sort of a good/bad thingy though. He’s running around the practice field already but he’s also cutting. You don’t like to see that kind of self-harming-he does enough of that just playing football. Seems a bit much.

-We’ve seen this before-“The Patriots and Nugent Reach an Agreement”. Both circumstances involve the destruction of all “non-patriots” [elbows you in the ribs] if you know what I mean.

-Stefon (having just returned from his night out at Les Miserables, the club that [breaks character]) Diggs ain’t happy. His targets early last year were in the 8-9 range and this year he’s down around 4. Too Many Cook is the problem. Well that, and the Vikings passing game is a joke wrapped inside a buffoonery encompassed by a jape which is making regular orbital passes around a monkeyshine. This on the heels of Thielen doing some barking about Cousins.

TO THE GAME!

Rams/Seahawks:

Completely competent L.A. cb’s Peterson and Talib were torchified last week to the tune of 50+ points. How’d this happen? PFF tells me that Winston focused on the long ball and this is reflected in his Average Depth Of Target being a very healthy 9.4. Ciara Wilson’s husband’s ADOT so far this year? 9.6. As she said before the marriage, “Balls Away!”.

I talked about it last time and I’ll bring it up again-being that it’s a Darren Sproles-type week, (meaning short) maybe fade Gurleycake? Malcolm Brown might be the play here. And if Chris Carson happens to fumble yet again, maybe Rashaad Penney is your guy.

Have at it, funboys!

Unsurprised

Oh, God Fucking Damn It!. I wrote a four-page cover letter (I know) and now I’m so stuck on a supplemental question I’m going to bomb this app before I even send it in.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

You’ll be fine. Walk away for five and then come back to it. Tighten up the cover letter and work through the supplemental question as low pressure as you can. You’ve brought yourself a long way, so you don’t NEED this job, it’s a nice to have. Try and take a little pressure off and it will be ok.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Good advice right there.

Wakezilla

Out of curiosity, why is your cover letter 4 pages?

Anyway, take an hour break, clear your mind, don’t think about the application and then return to it.

Good luck!

Brocky

I should be happy my fantasy qb threw 4 tds but i cant get over the fact that my opponets rb and kicker still got as many points., and thats including the miss

King Hippo

Game was so interesting I forgot to check on the el beisbol. America’s team already won, so any follow-up act is a letdown obvs

Viva La Tabula Raza

I’m only disappointed because of the fact that my old shipmate, Seahawks fan, who turned into a real fucking right wing guy, but I still love him, and I love having been able to rub his nose in it since the Malcolm Butler INT in SB LI, will enjoy the ending of this entertaining game.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Well, that was fun. AHAHAHAAHHA. I don’t give a fuck about either team, so AHAHAHAHAHHAHA!

King Hippo

He just made the early season defensive play for Seattle.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Edelman-esque catch for Int. Game over.

King Hippo

Not with a 3-and-out

Viva La Tabula Raza

You are correct sir. Let’s see, only a 50 yard gain or so needed!
