Your Monday Night Football Doubleheader Open Thread

Hey, yesterday didn’t suck, ya know? Oh, maybe your team sucked but the day? Nah. And tonight we have a couple of young-ish qb’s whose careers really could go either way, facing off against some D’s that could cause some skittishness. How will they do? [shrugs shoulders] I don’t know but let’s have the old looky-loo, shall we?

Steelers/Giants:

Last year New York gave up the third-most turnovers in the league and the Steelers had the most sacks and takeaways. This doesn’t look good. I’ve been told that Watt, Heyward and Dupree are jonesing for Danny Dimes. Three new faces are featured on a rebuilt offensive line that was a rebuild last year that was a rebuild from the year previous. Yikes. Stunts, blitzes, bull rushes-Pitt is going to make this game as physical as possible, get up early and win going away. I see a doubling up along the lines of 36-18 or 40-20.

Titans/Broncos:

Drew Lock got five games under his belt and had 7 tds and 3 int’s which seems like typical ‘rookie under fire’ numbers. It looks as though Courtland Sutton is a ‘not-go’ tonight so rook Jerry Jeudy and second-year te Noah Fant might have to do some heavy lifting-a sign of things to come? [looks at wr backups] Tim Patrick? Diontae Spencer? DeaSean Hamilton? Wow, your depth chart might be as skinny as the Giants! The Von Miller-less D has to somehow stay away from third and short situations because the Titans (using you-know-who) were the best in the league there once Tannyfanny became the starter.

Enough of my barking-it’s you guys that make the site the delightful place that it is. Do that thing you do.

I know it’s basedball, but Mark Grant just called the bases loaded”drunk with monks” for the Padres, and it shall now FOREVER BE KNOWN AS THAT!

Horatio Cornblower

That is inspired.

Also I hope your team wrecks the Dodgers.

Low Commander of the Super Soldiers

That would be the free guac on the perfect asada burrito that this season has been.

AJ Brown is alive, anyway.

I’m personally okay with Brown saving it for next week in DFOball, but who am I to disparage the rest of you who might need him?

King Hippo

Dy-no-mite??

Horatio Cornblower

I generally don’t drink during the week, giving my health at least a nodding acknowledgement as I age into my golden years, but a friend I hadn’t hung out with in a while called and asked if I was up for driveway beers and, well, the Kraken has been released.

Mr. Ayo

Nailed it!

Okay, this lack of crowd noise is a little disconcerting.

ESPN Deportes commercials are mainly debt consolidation and prostate pills. Don’t remember which one has a boomer in a motorcycle.
