TO THE GAME!
Colts/Titans:
-I get the feeling the Titans are gathering themselves for another run. Maybe not just yet but soon. They tweeked their underperforming D by nabbing Des King (who ran back an intercept for a TD in his first game. Thankyouverymuch) They also have taken above average cb Adoree Jackson off the IR so he’s coming back soon. The pieces are falling into place.
-Though the Titans don’t have a star on D, a “Super Sacker” if you will, they do exert what PFF calls ‘quick pressure’ more often than only four other teams. Significant talent upgrades in the secondary and a combined ‘team effort’ in pressuring opposing qb’s sounds like a winning formula moving forward.
-And that’s what a competent front office with long range goals in mind does-look for pieces that fit rather than making ‘splash’ trades.
-Here Comes Jordan Wilkins? He’s out-touched Jonathan Taylor 34 to 17 the past two weeks. Hell, last week Taylor had fewer snaps than Nyheim Hines. That’s what you get for fumbling, I guess. Not sure why Reich and Co. have soured on the rook but that’s what’s going on.
-This Colts D is the league’s number one by conventional metrics and has allowed the least amount of fantasy points to qb’s although Burrow and Stafford have very recently thrown for over 300 against them.
-Perhaps that D’s numbers may have been inflated a bit by the level of the competition. In addition to the Bengals and Lions, their sked has also included the Jags, Jets and Vikings. The rest of the way includes another game vs the Titans, also the Packers and the Steelers. They do get to pound the Texans (twice) and travel out to Las Vegas.
-Sad news you’ll hear about tonight-Corey Davis’ brother just passed away due to a rare form of cancer. He was just 26.
-Do we get to see Trey Burton in The Wildcat again? MAKE IT HAPPEN, PLEASE! Tight ends with rushing stats are a rare breed indeed.
Do that thing with your fingers.
New Belgium trippel is so good.
New Belgium’s Trippel is great, don’t get me wrong but their Inside The Park Homerun IPA is next level, trust me.
Not Hinesdown I think
I’m wrong. I’ve gotten accustomed to it.
TD Humps
Nyhmin Hines kind of having a good game…
Is there a qb that has thrown more passes to his rb than Rivers? I doubt it.
Passer and catcher of touched down, NC Muthafuckin’ State graduates!
BUF/AZ is a sneaky good matchup
Tits vs Humps. Hmm.
I’ve got HOU-CLE early on Fox, SF-NO late on Fox, and the BUF-AZ game. I think I will take some heroin and watch some game warden shows on Animal Planet.
Colts defenders know how to wrap up. Kudos there.
Henry’s “hair” reminds me of a raccoon tail and that thought makes me cringe every time it crosses my mind.
Is it a bunch of dreadlocks wrapped up for the game, or one big ‘ol hair horn?
Fellow Son of the South, nods in agreement
Henry
Henry Crockett
King of the Wild Frontier.
I remember watching a Cubs game once , and Harry Carey was shitfaced. He sang “Jody, Jody Davis, catcher without no fear.” Gumby and I still think of that when we hear that tune!
Definitely a boomer thing.
Yup
Yep
He did a variant I remember: “Jody, Jody Davis, what a fine young catcher you are.”
The beauty of Harry was he was exactly like my uncles and grandfather. Minus the racism.
I thought he was hilarious, in that drunk uncle way. My Uncle Don was that guy, rest his sweet soul.
I thought it was Davey, but my mind is kinda shot.
Back in the day you could usually narrow down where someone is from by what they get shown. With that lineup I have 0 fucking clue. That is all over the place.
San Antonio. there would be a Dallas game on my list, but I guess the have a bye.
It was the Tampa game that threw me off, but with Dreamboat being MUST WATCH, SLLUUURRRP, I get it.
The networks have certainly scraped the Patriots off their shoe pretty quickly.
Thats some fine officiating right there.
It really pisses me off that Spectre/um took my Redzone away.
Phil Spectre? He took a lot of things away.
Yeah, he killed a washed-up actress, but he gave us the Wall of Sound!
He made it with Ronnie Spector, I’m sure it was not because of his sexiness, but man she was a hottie.
She really was. I read she had a fling with Keith Richards too, she certainly had eclectic taste!
Ya mean “Nice Teeth Keith?”
Pre- heroin. They were never great, but they weren’t actually falling out of his mouth yet.
I’d go with Darlene Love from that group. Or maybe Cher if we forget she was 16.
Strong Rec-Spec game from the Humps kicker.
Blankenship is the kicker?
The New And Improved Jordan Wilkins Doll-Now With Alligator Arms!
Every time they say “Hines” my mind immediately adds “Ward”.
Mine goes, “ketchup.”[
It’s a ‘burgh thing.
My mind goes to “Running Scared” because Gregory totally kicked ass in that movie.
I need a Allie-Cox down tonight. If there is anyone who is good at getting cox into the endzone, it’s Philip Rivers
Hey now, Phil wants nothing to do with any Sodomites.
Wasted seed.
YOU BETTA CALL SOOOMMMMMMMBBBOOODDDDYYYYYY
Sen. Graham is down for some mo’ alley cocks
AJ Brown with the butterfingers
LOL
I coulda caught that!*
*scotchnaut said, lying to himself, thinking he was 30 years younger, and athletic, and had actually played organized football at some point
Brown ya did all the hard stuff. Just hold onto it
That hurt the ol’ bottom line.
Nawt pleased.
Cheer up. You could be this guy.
Didn’t need that guy said Schneider and Carroll
Titans D stops on 4th down. I’m telling you-they are going to vastly improve over the rest of the season.
Ouuu YEEEEAA
A certain part of San Juan will have fireworks tonight!
I just realized that I am watching a TNF game between two AFC South teams, both with winning records. Fucking 2020, when will it cease to amaze?
kind of weird not seeing Andrew Luck as the Colts QB
Or Peyton.
Fuck, I am old.
Johnny U
Bert Jones had that one good year before the shoulder got blown out.
I lived at Ft Meade in the late 1960s. I always hated that buck-tooth crew-cut motherfucker. I’d bet that he was pissed when he had to throw or hand off the ball to a black guy.
The NFL takes a toll on a man.
I’m so old I remember when Mo Allie-Cox danced onstage with Bruce Springsteen before he was famous.
Not being from New Jersey, I never even knew who Bruce Springsteen was, before he was famous.
He was big on the college circuit on the east coast when my sister was at Pitt. I saw him before Born to Run came out, but he played most of it.
As a Canuckian I’m so looking forward to y’all’s American Thanksgiving because I’ve been taking those two days off now for at least a half a dozen years because relations between our countries must be maintained/strengthened.
That is how we get through this ladies and gentlemen.
Now that I am working from home, I feel that I can really slack off when the games start.
I’m a goddamn buzzsaw on the Wednesday and things work out. A few phone calls and that’s about it.
Do you eat turkey on Murican Thanksgiving?
I do way too much take-out and junk food. It’s a ‘treat myself’ day.
Sports bars here when they were open did serve it during the games.
Ironically, right?
They figure fuck it and might as well join the party. One place that has closed during the Rona used to serve Turducken here.
Nice State Farm ad there, with Aaron and Patrick and their insurance agent all sitting there eating breakfast. Hope there’s some COVID updates coming out of that.
Looks like the small amount of fans they let into the stadium tonight are anxious to swap some atmosphere to take home for Thanksgiving.
Game over
Did you write that in your notebook?
If by notebook you mean my scrotum, then yes.
Smooth canvas guvnah!
Best after a hot shower and some time with the dough roller.
TD tits!!!
Go on…
Sexy Friday is tomorrow.
Man, that Tour of Duty Cold War movie looks cool. Is it going to be streaming on Amazon Prime?
Apple+
So, it is a movie?
COVID sucks ass, but it could grant my dream of dreams: holidays with just the five of us, eating, getting loaded, and falling asleep.
No driving. No family fights. No stupid shit.
Just eat. drink. pass out.
As someone who has a small family, your dream is totally worth it. It’ll probably be even better than you expect.
I can’t tell you how many times I have said to my wife, “We’re staying here, with our kids. Fuck everybody else. If they get mad, fuck them. Now let’s get naked.”
“Sir, this is a public library!”
“Sir, this is a bus stop.”
That electric Ford is not a Mustang no matter how much they spend n advertising.
Should have brought back the Pinto badging for that one.
I approve. I had a 72 Pinto Runabout and that car was pretty cool.
Would have been pretty hot if you ever go rearended in it. And yes, I realize that could be misinterpreted, bring it!
Got totaled, but it was a T-bone by an octogenarian in a 1963 Plymouth Valiant who ran a stop sign, not a stern shot. So, no VLTR Flambeau.
Guy in our group had a 77 Pinto and three of us bet each other we could pick up the rear end. We were not big dudes. So the 4th guy went over to distract him while us 3 all grabbed the bumper and lifted and up it went.
As he floored it and his RWD wheels spun in the air he screamed at us, “Put me down!”
“Ok!” And we dropped his car, which promptly took off with squealing tires since he was still flooring it, right into the intersection and narrowly missing someone with the right of way.
Much LMAO was had.
I had a Pinto in college. You could actually get a lot of people in those things, we maxed out at 8.
Anyone start WR Corey Davis in fantasy football this week?
Had the chance, declined.
Food. What is it and why can’t I stop eating it?
One of the stupider things I ever overheard was some lady talking about how bagels aren’t food.
If you put a hot dog in a bagel, is it a sandwich?
Nope, just obscene to a lot of people.
If you cut Joe Buck open, you will find nothing but the blood of fallen angels. And cockroaches.
Same can be said for Eric Trump.
Or any Trump
I always imagined he was just full of old teeth from corpses
“Or any Trump”
—jjfozz
Can I tell you guys about one of the most best memories of my life?
Ok.
When I was a kid, maybe around 9, it was Christmas and we had those candles in the window. Such soft, comforting light.
My window was open and I heard my mom walk out of the house to have a smoke – Kent King 100s, fuckers.
And I heard her talking to our neighbor, who was also smoking.
It was a first glimpse into adults and how hard they worked and how they were also good friends.
I don’t know why, but it’s one of the best memories of my lfie.
I remember once when I was about 5 or 6 I slipped on the ice and my dad picked me up and carried me up the steps. It comforts me to this day, even though my dad and I had a complicated relationship.
Who knows, maybe that ice incident triggered it. Psychology is weird.
As far as blondes go, Charissa may as well be a Fox News presenter.
One of the games last year that was on Amazon had a second broadcast crew, which was Kolber and Andrea Kremer I think? It was ok.
*Invokes Rule 34 of Internet*
Totally agree.
I have the volume off. I was making a reference to all the blonde girliecakes on Fox.
“Tomi Lahren’s Stone Cold Locks”
Always there for me. Silent. Supportive. Open to my wishes. Warm and comforting. So relaxing, he helps me sleep at night. Will he travel with me to the underworld? time will tell.
If not time, maybe Balls.
I have pinkeye the second time in 2020, and ah ain’t even been hangin’ with Scott Baio.
I reckon pinkeye is better than browneye.
You don’t have to lie about your girlish crush, you’re among friends here.
ah mean, even if he’s a Trump cultist…still pretty HAWT
Hippo Love Chachi
That sitcom was wayyyyy ahead of its time.
I’m Navy trained. It’s not gay if you’re underway.
I have had many people tell me I look like him. once, in a drunken state I yelled, “Oh! So all Italians look the same to you? Just like black people?”
My friends made the right choice – paid the tab and hustled my ass out of the bar.
At least you were only so drunk that you still said “black people!”
Believe me, I’ve never said anything worse – although my racist uncle had many, many names for black people. All of them horrible.
In Baltimore it’s always been “white boy” and “black people”, no racism intended, just how we talk around here.
Well, some of us. Some of the other people are flat out cuntheads.
Oh dem hips….
Does that job blow?
Wha happen if you go all like Hey, Alexa, can you suck me dry?
“Please use the PornHub app.”
In my apartment, nothing. I set the wake word to ‘computer’
Why do I imagine Dok’s computer being almost(?) sentient?
“Dammit Jim, I’m a doctor of statistics, not a doctor!”
Can’t decide if I actually want to cancel my Mexico trip over Thanksgiving, or if I’m just grumpy tonight. I would be out about $300 from hotel deposit, but everything else is refundable.
fuck it. just buy a lot of tequila and wash the room down with it. also, wash your throat with it. when you’re done and you puke, that puke will be full of anti-germ tequila. so, i’d say go.
Science!
I should do a test run tonight, I do have an unopened bottle right now
I’ll do a test too, because it would be a completely independent control group test. Except with bourbon. And shitty beer.
Are they even letting Americans into the country?
Yeah, Mexico has been open to Americans the whole time, no restrictions.
I have heard tell that they are more nonchalant about #NuAIDS than even we’uns is.
They probably think we are going to pay for it. Like WALL.
Give us WALL! We need WALL!!!1111
The resort towns have all implemented pretty solid measures, since they’re not as stupid as a lot of American towns and realize that it’s linked to demand. They’re in considerably better shape than the US.
Hold our beer.
—Red America
Nope. They’re actually better than the US
I mean, you’d probably have the whole plane to yourself, that’d be kewl!
/also u cud b my #NuAIDS Eskimo sista!
My youngest, the future of the next generation
That’s got to be a couple hundred bucks in TP right there, at post apocalypse bartering rates.
I could have gotten a nitro truck for that much TP
Totally forgot about the scales of justice. Have you considered, maybe, leaving him on the doorstep of an orphanage?
With all the shitty shit that’s come into my life since July, this kid has completely saved me from torpedoing right down into the deep hole of depression. fucking love him more than bourbon.
That’s saying something. Kids over booze? Wow!
Love rules over bourbon. sometimes.
found a funny:
sign your emails with “best regrets” and see if they notice
Why am I watching the Fox pre-game?
Because when the world is wall to wall shit, this doesn’t seem so bad.
I always make sure I catch the NFL prognostications of Sean, Tucker, and Laura on FOX.
Time to get this shit rolling
*Najeh Davenport has joined the chat.
He’s not welcome here.
You just buy a new laundry hamper or something?
mmmm no?
Everytime I see Derick Henry’s braid sticking out of his helmet, all I can think of is, “Damn that’s a huge turd.”
Glad to see the virus disappearing after November 4th, per administration and supporters’ predictions.
