Woo! Your Sunday NFL Football Open Thread

[turns BEST BRA EVER! admercial off]

It’s almost too much football, isn’t it? Kidding! No, it is not. TO THE GAMES!!!

Jets/Bills:

Did the Vikes front office giggle a bit when they traded the league’s best downfield wr (% of passes caught 20+ yards from LOS) to the Bills so that he could be paired with the league’s worst downfield passer? Probably. Singletary’s usage last year befuddled me-a dynamic, breakaway type back, he was used behind Gore when the latter was clearly fading. Now Zack Moss is the apple of McDermott’s and Daboll’s eyeballs. It seems that this coaching staff is in ‘Back To the 80’s!’ mode.

Fins/Pats:

I’m forced to cheer for a Pats player because I want to see Cam do well. Please shoot me.

Browns/Ravens:

So many offensive weapons on the field in this game. Should be a fun game to watch and yes, that is the first time that word has ever been uttered in the context of these two cities. Sure it’s an easy joke but… I’ve got nothing.

Colts/Jags:

Lots of debate among conservative fantasy players as to whether or not one should start Taylor. Look, the Jags have one of the worst run D’s in the league-both Mack and Taylor will have about 15 carries and a score by game’s end.

Eagles/Team:

Sanders is a goner so play Boston Scott if ya gotta. One concern is that Team has a very impressive D-line now. As always (it seems) Philly’s wr’s are nicked up-play DeSean before he joins the wounded.

Bears/Lions:

Golladay tweaked his hammy and didn’t practice on Friday. The Lions would be stupid to play him, so he’s a go? Pivot over to Hockenson, he’s my candidate for 2nd year breakout tight end.

Pack/Vikes:

Dalvin got paid! Anyway… That Minny D that one could always count on to force the issue has only 5 returning players from 2019 playing today. Reportedly, A.J. Dillon’s thighs are in action this afternoon. The fellas on the Sirius fantasy channel were gushing like schoolgirls at a K-pop concert the day the photos came out. [rolls eyes]

‘Hawks/Falcons:

Gotta love the combo of Matty Ice/his receiving options and the lousy Atlanta D. Perhaps his first 5,000 yard season is in play? He’s been very close twice before. There will be no fans at this game. By choice.

Raiders/Panthers:

Everyone is jawing about Ruggs 3 but 3rd round wr Bryan Edwards did the wowing in camp. Them Las Vegans have quite a bit of young talent at the rb/wr spots-how long before they give Carr the old boot?

There’s your first slate. Have at it.

Ugh

Lot of “Green 80″s these days, but what happened to good old “Blue 42”? smdh

Gratliff

Raegor might be the first real replacement the Eagles have had since Jackson left the first time.

Spur

so, on IR by week 7?

herodotus450

If you don’t have a staff, there’s no one to put players on IR, we smrt

Horatio Cornblower

OK, off to slap a second coat of stain on the shed or, as Bill Clinton might say “interviewing for that intern position”

Huzzah, at least I won’t lose Survivor/Loser pools Week 1 (doubled down on BAL/CLE)

Barkevious Mingo is a Bear now? I did not know that

Jamar and the Ravens offense are just clowning at this point.

ArmedandHammered

I wanted the Colts to suck so we could have River’s first screaming rant with his new team.

bk109

Funny enough, you’re wrong. I’m currently playing a tank game, so I am indeed tanking XD

ArmedandHammered

World of Tanks?

bk109

Steel Beasts Pro (basically the groundside equivalent of DCS World). It’s on the difficult side, but then again – it’s based on an actual armored warfare training software 🙂

bk109

In all fairness, it was a rather anemic joke, so I’m not exactly sorry to Old Yeller it…

bk109

Btw, from someone that actually is in the field… 5G isn’t really that viable outside of stationary installs and high-density venues like stadium. Everything else is just 4G with somewhat better signal processing and a new coat of paint to entice people to get a new phone 😀

Gatoraids

Good to see Rick Moranis making a return to kicking

I think Washington’s piping in opposing fan crowd noise

Moar liek Nick Fucksup, amirite NE?

Shank’lor for the halftime show

Ugh this game is going to merit a halftime masturbation break

Break.. .for a quick Kraftjob? Oh you innocent folks 😀

Nelson Agholor… caught a ball?

For a touchdown?

This is indeed a most disturbing universe.

Just as an FYI, [DFO] has passed 800,000 overall comments.

THAT’S GOOD HUSTLE!

That can’t be right, I clicked on a button to claim my 1 Millionth Comment Award years ago. I filled in my credit card and SSN and everything!

Beerguyrob

And the people of Sudan thank you.

Almost done with my movie spec script about an East Coast elite SJW and a down home racist southerner who meet and fall in love while both are protesting the NFL for their own reasons. Agents and financiers are welcome to contact me about this surefire hit.

This is the problem with giving Drew Magary an NFL player contract when he’s in his 40s.

JustStopDude

It’s like the Ravens are playing at a different fucking speed than the browns.

I think Jackson could complete a pass to me for positive yardage, he is that talented. I would instantly die from the tackle, but it would still be a catch.

/I would include a gif from Not Another Teen Movie but I am using my phone.

I made the road trip to visit my parents in Vancouver, which is currently #2 in the world for worst air quality (behind Portland).

I think in co-ordination with President Pigshit, a press conference should be made about Canada wanting to charge the gender reveal couple with manslaughter and Trump considering giving the couple up.

Just really scare the shit out of dumb couples thinking about doing a dumb, over the top gender reveal

Beerguyrob

AND YOU DIDN’T CALL?!

ArmedandHammered

One of the things I learned on a trip to NZ is that if you cause a large scale fire you will receive a bill for the damage and the cost of fighting the fire. Some body had let a field burning get out of hand and set the Remarkable mountains on fire, probably having to live in the Remarkables.

King Hippo

please hand ball to Mark Ingram thx

Beerguyrob

Okay, time for “Irrational things that make Beerguyrob irrational”:

Why is a Whopper a sandwich? YOUR CALLED BURGER KING!

Gatoraids

Why is it even called food at this point

Beerguyrob

I guess that’s question 1b.

Fantasy team doing suspiciously well, I predict the season will be canceled

Gratliff

Just don’t look at the non-fantasy one

MOAR TE DOWN

Blah-blah-blah publicity stunts are so powerful talk about the NFL… Let’s be fucking real, if public opinion changes tomorrow, teams will be wearing “Napalm sticks to kids” type of slogans ….

I tried that on the wife, sadly without effect 😀

My “end racism” T-shirt is not ending systemic racism. Oh well, fuck it, I tried.

Jamal Adams is having himself one hell of a debut

The Maestro

Man, they’re showing ads on RedZone right now. Someone is getting fired.

Doktor Zymm

Santa Clara air quality at the moment. Actually slightly better than it’s been, but still in the unhealthy range. I haven’t exercised in 5 days since everything outdoors is a no go and I have the same air indoors as out. Although maybe if they can’t breath they won’t be able to run as fast an that will reduce other injuries?

Plus since when the peasants in the Bay area get the right to complain about the air their betters fart in their general direction ? :p

Odell Beckham Jr. got a personal foul? Well, now I’ve seen heard everything.

Horatio Cornblower

Listen, compared to what else he’s into anything he does on the field should be a freebie.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

“Matthew Stafford, one of the best quarterbacks in the game…”

FACT CHECK: FALSE

ArmedandHammered

They did not say what game, could have meant BloodBowl.

well, more like a half-truth… he is a quarterback … sorta…

Gatoraids

One of his kids musta edited his Madden stats to fuck with the announcer

Horatio Cornblower

Matthew Stafford, one of the TWO quarterbacks in THIS game…”

Simple error; anyone could have made that mistake.

bk109

Heh, the Fizception braindamage through the ages montage was something 😀

King Hippo

Fantasy football, every season = reminder that I am the dumbest shit on the planet.

Back to the dolphins game is the methodone for my Red Zone addiction.

Dacteds in FG range??

Hope their kicker doesn’t have a wounded kn…

You know what, forget it.

Folks.

Beerguyrob

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Where?

Gatoraids

How ya like that safety

King Hippo

I enjoy a pass where both teams drop it.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

As our high school coaches used to say….that’s why he plays defense.

Doktor Zymm

Huh, it appears I now have a visceral disgust reaction to Apple commercials

bk109

Is it the overpriced tech, smug presentation or the concentration camp-style factories they use?

Doktor Zymm

Yes
