Because there seem to be so many of them we’ll go directly-
TO THE GAMES!
Rams/Bills:
Rook rb Moss is out with a toe ouchie so the problem for Coach McDermott now becomes, “How do I limit Singletary to under 20 touches? Hmmm…”. He’ll find a way.
Raiders/Pats:
I was thinking Pats for survivor because the Raiders are coming off the meaningful victory and all the hoopla surrounding their new digs, plus traveling cross-country and playing the early game vs. the Pats at home. Or I could stream the teams playing the Jets. Decisions are hard.
Team/Browns:
Much was made of the vaunted Team’s pass rush after wk. 1 and then wk. 2 happened. Quickly recapped, there was not much vaunt. Mayfield and Co. shouldn’t have much of a problem here. Shouldn’t.
Texans/Steelers:
Pitt’s pass rush generates pressure within 2 seconds on 44% of qb dropbacks. Look for Watson to run around a bit more than usual to counteract that.
9ers/Giants:
New York will be looking Wayne Gallman’s way when they need a competent plodder (who was inactive last week) to get them 3 yards on first down. San Franny should walk away with this despite fast running out of Next Man Up’s.
Bengals/Eagles:
Burrows is tied for second in attempted passes with 97(!) so far. Kudos for him in that he has a 3:1 TD/INT ratio. Let’s call him Joey Ice (that elbow, postgame)
Titans/Vikes:
Perhaps this is the week rook wr Justin Jefferson hits the smash spot-he’s playing primarily in the slot so far and would be up against an UDFA that has given up 80+ yards and a score so far.
Bears/Falcons:
Julio is a game-timer that didn’t practice all week. PFF has given the Bears O-line the 3rd best ranking with respect to protecting the qb, noting that they didn’t give up a single quick pressure to the Giants last week. I feel that sometimes these rankings should be adjusted for ‘quality of opponent’.
Have at it down below. We’ll have our esteemed footski commenters start things off.
Burrow is dead.
DED ASS
Can you imagine how cold Buffalo’s stadium is going to be in December without 20,000 cubic yards of beer farts in the seats? Or Green Bay?
Bengals actually sack somebody?
Aw, hell. I feel asleep during the game again. I’ll just sit patiently until the busload of schoolgirls show up and the beer trees bloom.
Glory Boy Josh Allen refuses to hand off to Singletary.
QUAD BOX
Dontrelle Inman owners happy.
I bet Lewan is yelling awesome shit talk into that turf.
Liberating to have given up on fantasy before 2p
Yeah I am getting torched every which way.
Same for the freezer league. Can barely start healthy bodies at this point
I my expensive league my top 4 wrs have ouchies.
Really? There’s only like 11 points scored so far.
Story of my life.
I know the 3 year rule is for cue-bees, but if it applies to are-bees AT ALL, Joe Mixon is a flop.
When you gotta make your first cut when you’re getting the handoff, you’re not gonna have a good stat line.
yeah, that OL is still a tire fire
Sweet, I forgot to live bet Baby Buster and pals.
Goff with the Cough (up)
Dimes got legs!
LOL
Some cases of crabs are worse than others
The Bortles?
found a funny:
I know this is so so so low on the list of big picture priorities, but we’ve got to stop acting like the majority of birds are good at singing.
The only good Dallas is hurt
figures, i just picked him up
I knew this was somehow the fault of the worst Dallas
May be a broken ankle. Neat.
Ertz’s voodoo doll of Dallas is most effective.
Raiders turnover that shouldn’t have been is given right back with pickerception
Bleergh is happy

Oh! Who got the sod job at the Meadowlands? Feech LaManna?
I’m hungover and this picture is giving me vertigo
is that Eric Idle on the left?

[ nods knowingly]
Jordan Reed is the best Gingerbread Man football player in history.
Shit
the trurf @ met-life stadium is crap too
I like that the State Farm guy has bigger muscles than Aaron Rodgers.
Cool how the Bengals completely revamp their defense but still can’t resist personal fouling away the game
NFL 2020: Where Defenders have to have the ability to stop all momentum on both them and others instantaneous.
Breaking news: Jordan Reed hurt.
Methinks it’s actually just Spraining News.
Wentz doing a non-shit thing!
Just farting around then?
Bills 4th and goal
Who are you, Lee Smith?
Fun Fact*: when their name was sent across the Atlantic it was garbled, and that’s why we call them Mott The Hoople over here instead of Meet The Rutles…

Does it factor in Offensive Line? 2 yards may as well be two miles.
How the fuck do the Browns consistently disappoint? Its amazing. I could time my watch to it.
Allen’s gonna run the ball now. And get the tuddy.
Nope. Diggsdown.
X2 revoked
Maybe BUF scores here, I can live bet RRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!!
Giants cute trickery turns into solid buffoonery. Dumb fucking playcalling. Jeezuz!
I find most TEs are nae fast enough for end arounds. Plus, not exactly used to catching laterals.
His hands are just average.
HUZZAH for benching Engram!!
Younghoe? You NEVAR trust a big butt and a smile.
Dakota Jeebus, still pretty stupid.
Gonna be a bad year, folks
I thought Ridley might’ve turned it over there.
Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. Cincy’s defense sucks and blows concurrently.
Like a squid!
So, anyone else paying attention to Shitty getting pantsed by Leicester?
No?
/Everton priapism increases
Vardy murdered them.
Arsenal just needs to take a point, leave us alone in first.
GODDAMN IT, DON’T MUSH US, you MUSHER! 😀
Lotta gorgeous goals in that one.
Announcers can’t mention Blake Martinez without saying ‘tackling machine’. It’s right there in the notes that were prepared for them.
[starts drawing up plans for a “pancake machine”] – Andy Reid
Insurmountable lead in the meadowlands
FOAR the Turf Monster amirite??

/pats self on back for not starting Burrow

///SAD HIPPO
Giants 30th in league defending the 3rd down.
I bet they is tops in not forcing 3rd downs, at least
Gotta get up early if you are gonna be worse at anything than the Jets.
