Your “It’s Almost Over And We Learned So Little” Sunday Afternoon NFL Football Open Thread

Shall we get right at it? We shall.

TO THE GAMES!

Jets/Bills:

[shakes head] The Jets won 6 games? How? Anyhow, it’s not a far reach to posit that as a kid, Josh Allen must have thrived during ‘unstructured playtime’.

Browns/Bengals:

Much like Sex Panther, this game smells like Bigfoot’s dick. One must give Cincy props though, they dug themselves into a giant hole and now they have a Burrow.

Packers/Detroit:

December 29, 2019-mark this day as the last time you’ll ever hear the name David Blough. “He did his best, but his best was not nearly good enough”.

Chargers/Chiefs:

As noted last week, the Chiefs suddenly Hetty Green-like D (only an average of 9.6 points given up over the last 5 games) throws a spanner in the works of the playoffs. The Chargers now enter their “Eli Phase” whereby a clearly ineffective player long past his prime insists he can still play and the powers that be think it would be poor form to force him into retirement/bench him.

Bears/Vikes:

Minny is locked into the #6 seed so look for them to rest some dudes. By keeping Truth Biscuit behind center, Chicago fans can look forward to the O spinning its wheels for at least the next few years.

Fins/Inveterate Cheaters:

Brady has stuck his dick in Miami’s blowhole 15 times at home and has only been denied the one time. Many kudos to coach Flores for a job well done, despite every single member of the front office and ownership handcuffing him every step of the way.

Falcons/Bucs:

I’m sure that if I left this game out of the intro not a soul would have noticed. That said, Jameis will throw a pic in his 1st or 2nd series-it’s kind of a good luck thing with him. It ensures that he’ll toss a few more along the way to 350+ yards.

Saints/Panthers:

New Orleans will put this one to bed and then watch the Niners to see if they end up as the #1 or #2 seed.

Ok, so they have to fire Freddie Kitchens right?

Unsurprised

Was there a Kitchens grease fire?

King Hippo

Extended Director’s Cut!

Unsurprised

I hate that you’re right.

King Hippo

Like the old hoopsball maxim “pressing teams don’t like to be pressed” – gadget-play fetishists don’t like the shoe on the other foot

King Hippo

18-16! BANANACAKES SCORING!!!

Dunstan

SHHHHH. Don’t say it.

TheRevanchist

Fitz tends to play up in games against The Putz.

King Hippo

/Flea quietly tunes his bass

Unsurprised

Well … It is ridiculous shit like this that somehow keeps him employed.

TheRevanchist

Haha haha!!!! Suck it, San Diego!

King Hippo

9 completed passes for Dreamboat

litre_cola

More points were scored in Leeds v Birmingham today in futbol than Bills Jests.

Redshirt

Mayfield and Dalton are having a derp off.

King Hippo

Give us a WNY Glorious Draw!!

TheRevanchist

Now we are putting that nail in the coffin. Fuck off, San Diego! You aren’t LA, foolz.

Redshirt

Even though its the Pats, you gotta love a fat guy score. Even a 30+ yard reception with 20s yard after catch and broken tackle.

LemonJello

Still plenty of time for the Liouns to, as our resident Hippo would say, “shit on they dicks.”

Redshirt

John Ross III is completely immune to disease, as being infected would require actually catching something.

LemonJello

Maybe he has leprosy and his hands will fall off if he’s not careful?

TheRevanchist

Suggs!!!

litre_cola

Rivers just floated on into quadruple coverage. Good lord.

King Hippo

and was PRAISED for it!!

King Hippo

LAY DOWN, HERETICS!!!

Game Time Decision

KC with a 104 yard kickoff return wow

King Hippo

BloodSugar baby! He’s magic! A-FitzMagic!!!

litre_cola

Jimmy Graham played basketball.

hippofant

Jimmy Graham played parcheesi.

litre_cola

Did he letter?

King Hippo

Sudden…DARKEST TIMELINE SHIFT??

King Hippo

Can only keep a Hardman down so long ,, amirite??

litre_cola

Especially in the morning slot.

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem

About 10 minutes, usually

Gratliff

Gonna find out Dak fucked up his shoulder doing his stupid hip shimmy

King Hippo

perhaps the processed ham is expanding?

TheRevanchist

Notice how they mitigated Rivers in that short field drive. Best way to not turnover the ball is to minimize that shithead.

hippofant

^ Somebody give this guy the lazereyes pewpewpew

hippofant

Even watching RedZone I’m surprisingly bored right now.

Old School Zero

That was me watching the latest Star War

hippofant

They just showed like a 60-yard punt with a 5-yard return. whoooooo

Mistborn Impossible

Did they ever solve the trade dispute with the naval blockade?

King Hippo

Funny score in Minny plus Packers derpage is keeping me sentient.

Gratliff

Everything I know about the Patriots and bullshit tells me that neither the Dolphins nor the Chiefs will score again

Gratliff

Oh right, the Chargers

litre_cola

Jameis is fucking exciting, I will give him that.

King Hippo

We should have a Rapey Jameis/Brokeback Superb Owl pre-game exhibition.

Redshirt

Somehow the Bengals, Browns and Referees all made mistakes all in the same play.

Senor Weaselo

The Aristocrats!

King Hippo

Even German fans are uneasy with the amount of shit the Packers are spraying all over Ford Field.

litre_cola

Too disgusting for banner IMO.

Unsurprised

No such thing. We had a domestic violence one a month ago.

King Hippo

Jest and Bills should just run off-tackle every single play the 2nd half.

Old School Zero

Sounds like me playing Madden

Senor Weaselo

I’m a HB Blast man, myself.

Low Commander of the Super Soldiers

Ah, the Norv Turner playbook I see.

Unsurprised

I hate to say this. I really do. But Brady would make a great NFLPA president post-retirement.

litre_cola

Rivers right to the honey badger. Sounds about right.

ArmedandHammered

Floaterception!

Old School Zero

Ahhhh… floaterception. There it is.

King Hippo

misty water-colour meeeemmmmmmmories….

King Hippo

Ah, the Hall of Adequacy

/see also – George, Eddie

litre_cola

Duce Staley wants some of this.

King Hippo

Duce was my first-ever fantasy keeper. yes, I regretted it.

Gratliff

Duce put up 1000 yards in a season where he had a double hernia for most of the season that had him bed-ridden for days after every game. Man is deserving of a keeper spot.

King Hippo

I was like “SWEET! $3 starting RB!!” And he put up like 8-10 PPR points a week.

litre_cola

And he has a third leg, ppl forget that.

Gratliff

Has Philip Rivers ever won a playoff game?

Mistborn Impossible

Apparently 5 of them!

Gratliff

I can not possibly reconcile that information with 15 years of watching Philip Rivers fail

Mistborn Impossible

He won one way back in… last year!

King Hippo

JPP totes got a stub in on that ball.

Redshirt

The fix is in at Foxborough.

litre_cola

Screaming toddler half an hour in to a nap. I am in hell. Eagles fo sho gunna lose.

Although Hippo’s Serie B talisman won me some scratch.

King Hippo

5 of 6 today!!

Gratliff

That’s like a .1 on the Dawkins scale. Come back when you get your bridge down.

“When did this happen?”

– J. Montana

Unsurprised

This one hurts because it’s true and I thought he was the best. I still think he’s the best QB ever.

Old School Zero

There’s the Charger derp we’ve all come to love

Gratliff

Wait. Green Bay has a bye right now? They’re easily the worst team in the playoffs. They got buried by Philly of all teams.

Unsurprised

Who?

Redshirt

16 games and BW Webb still doesn’t fully understand that deep passes can only come from one direction on a football field.

Gratliff

FFS. They’re showing Skins-Cowboys in Michigan. Can we at least get a game with a playoff team in it?

Spur

You will watch the Cowboys play and like it.

Gratliff

Only in those rare moments that the Slurs derp hard enough to get them on RedZone

LemonJello

Prolly be a few of those. ‘Dacteds derp level is over 9000.

King Hippo

Really, the team knows they can cement Princeton Red’s firing AND Dak! can’t use his throwing shoulder. Comedy will ensue.

King Hippo

WE CAN HAS GARBAGE SAFETY!!!

TheRevanchist

Honey badger did good.

King Hippo

bet he still ain’t care!

King Hippo

4-nil, Benevento. Job. Fookin’. DONE!!

Redshirt

If they don’t draft Joe Burrow or don’t get a Herschel Walker or Ricky-Williams-like trade for the pick, Bengals fans will burn Paul Brown Stadium to the ground.

Horatio Cornblower

“Promise?” -Mike Brown, jacking up his insurance coverage while preparing to draft Chase Adams

TheRevanchist

It’s not like they expect winning at this point. Pretty sure apathy is their way of life.

King Hippo

He won’t be making local enemies by hanging 70 on tOSU, at least. Let that be yesterday’s pyhrric victory

Redshirt

Cincinnati hates Ohio State. If Ohio State won last night and got their nuts busted the bad way by Burrow, they would’ve already renamed the Riverfront Park after him.
