Your Second Sunday Afternoon NFL Football Open Thread

TO THE GAMES!

Saints/Broncos:

Last week Kamara had no catches in a game for the first time in his career. That’s what happens when you play with a mobile qb that uses his wheels instead of dumping the ball when he’s under pressure. Still, Alvin will get some yards on the ground because Denver’s run D has fallen apart the last four weeks. Not sure how the other chipmunks will do though.

Niners/Rams:

Deebo is back and look for him to be deployed the same way he was last time-getting passes behind the line of scrimmage (his ADOT was -5) in space and letting him do his thing. His YAC average (smaller sample size) is 13.3, the next best is 6. The multi-headed Rams backfield may have someone emerging for the stretch run. Henderson led everyone in carries, yards and balls lugged inside the 10.

Chiefs/Bucs:

If you drafted Godwin as your WR1 this year you may have noticed his career lows in yards per target and catch. THANKS BRADY! Speaking of, he’s 0-11 on deep balls his last three games. Do you use CE-L here? Signs point to NO! He did get 51% of the snaps but gets pulled for Williams on third down because he can’t pass block yet. Also, Bell is still being added to the rotation and the Bucs are top 8 in defending the run.

Let’s do it again!

I’d be happy either way, but I guess just because I am old, I’d rather sequester Flo than Lily. If I was forced to choose.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

That mashup has to exist, rule 34 and all

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Oh did I mention I’m going up against Nola’s defense?

Can you imagine the conversations of these COs after listening to Michael Thomas discuss criminal justice reform?

If I were a fly on that wall, I’m sure I’d have been introduced to five words worse than the N-word.

blaxabbath

I like how, for Cowboys /Ravens, CBS shows a split screen with Lamar Jackson / the DAL star.

I have no idea why anyone outside DAL would be a fan of that team.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Whaddaya mean? They’re AMERICA’S TEAM.

Recovery Whiskey

Still bragging about 30 year old achievements while being full of problems today … checks out

Dunstan

And currently have a chief executive who is a crazy amoral old man.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Are you talking about Cowboys or USA?

Dunstan

Yes

rockingdog

California rocking with

Old Tom Brady shares a lot of traits (championships mostly) with Old Tim Duncan, except Old Tim Duncan was/is likeable.

litre_cola

This SF v RAMMIT game is shit.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I want even moar derp in broncos-saints

blaxabbath

All Rise probably seems like a good show to people who are objectively dumb.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It would be more fun if it were a courtroom-themed baking show.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I hope the Bucs realize finally that it’s not all “Hi Fiddle Dee Dee, the pirate’s life for me,” and they are more likely to experience Rum, Sodomy, and The Lash under Super Tom.

Dunstan

Rum, Sodomy, and The Lash

It’s like you just lit the Buddy Cole batsignal…

Why wouldn’t a HC just admit he took the reigns? That’s his responsibility.

If Tom Brady is so great, why is TB being slaughtered?

Does Gase still have a job?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

If Those are truly My Raiders he’ll get canned tomorrow and the Jets will rally around the new guy.

blaxabbath

The new guy…

I drove by as the buses were pulling out on Friday. There were only about four people standing across the street and seeing the team off. Now, how can the Raiders win with that little fan support?

WCS

I don’t think Patrick Mahomes is human. He has to be a Terminator

WCS

…and that happens.

blaxabbath

My little bro got his pilots license and took me up today. I think i would like to follow suit.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Do it! I have one and it’s one the best decisions I ever made and also one of the dustiest things I currently own.

litre_cola

I just want the kid to complete one pass to someone on his team.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Starting that Denver QB in a WR slot is turning out to be a lot less fun than I thought it would.

Sharkbait

Agreed

Viva La Tabula Raza

Gawd, Does CBS even have something competitive they can throw us to at some point?

Dunstan
King Hippo

Best eligible passer on Donks’ active roster is clearly Brandon McManus, but he’s team MVP and too important to risk.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I know that it is River’s gig, but Brady is really starting to look like Marmalard from Animal House. Or was it Niedermeyer?

found a funny:

This Saints-Broncos game is a poor man’s Army-Navy game.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I can’t wait for Space Force Academy to start playing NCAA FB.

JimU

They’re going to play their home games on the moon!

Viva La Tabula Raza

That’s gonna be more of a pain in the ass than playing the UH (formerly Rainbow) Warriors.

dude
really gotta throw it to WR Mike Thomas
he is rite there!!!!

King Hippo

I am surprised N’Awlins isn’t just punting on 1st down. Game’s over without a defensive score.

Redshirt

203 yards and its only the 1st Qtr.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Am I a bad person for wishing that Tyreek Hill had broken his neck on that little flip into the end zone?

No. No I am not. I fact, those kinds of wishes are what make me a GOOD person.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Hope this KC/TB game turns into a Rodney King-like beatdown and we don’t have to watch any more nationally televised TB games for the rest of the season just because TB is playing at TB.

King Hippo

Coked-Up RedZone Guy mentioned how bad MRSA Dreamboat has been on deep throws, so I’m assuming he’ll be fired by the morning.

Redshirt

First FOX News and now CURZG? What’s with the recent dose of reality?

King Hippo

Tears FOAR Fears tried to warn us it was a Mad World…

Viva La Tabula Raza

And predicted the current WH occupant with Everybody Wants To Rule the World.

Viva La Tabula Raza

You mean RZ guy gets fired, not Brady, amirite?

King Hippo

oh yeah, there’s no “ignorance defense” to disregarding The Shield’s Narrative Memoranda

Scotchy called it CEH is getting fuck all.

King Hippo

I had him benched for Perine, but then Gio was a surprise active. GUH

King Hippo

Oh how I laughed. Tyreek rubbing their noses in it.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Even as a lifelong P*ts fan, I really find it hard to hate on post-NFL-career Peyton Manning. He was even pretty funny off the field during his active career.

Sharkbait

The SNL United Way sketch is amazing and I will laugh at that any time

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Fair but also fuck Peyton Manning with his own ballsack in a wood chipper

Viva La Tabula Raza

Browns 8-3
Let that sink in.

bk109

It’s 2020 – everything’s off kilter, but it’s OK, because the playoffs are after 2021 hits, so who knows how they’ll get taint-punted by the football gods…maybe their plane pulls a MH370 and disappears into the ether, or … the stadium collapses … The opportunities for derpage are limitless

Redshirt

I’m getting a Bengals vibe from them. My vote is for them to Super Saiyan Derp in the Playoffs.

LemonJello

It’s 2020…so Superb Owl Victory with a 2-0 final score.

Redshirt

Insurmountable Lead against Old Man Brady.

King Hippo

As much a piece of shit as Tyreek is? I’d buy him a beer before I’d shake MRSA Dreamboat’s hand.

King Hippo

Only proud moment of 2020 – I subbed out Donks WOO placement kicker at like 12:55 EST. The sub I selected put up 21 points!

Viva La Tabula Raza

Really surprised Kroenke’s team hasn’t made some kind of exclusive marketing deal with the truck company formerly known as Dodge.

King Hippo

Donks/Saints will end before 6:30 EST

Viva La Tabula Raza

“Everybody go long.”
—Donks QB of the moment.

LemonJello

Running clock and no extra time?

King Hippo

I would have bitten your hand off for a nil-nil Draw.

Sharkbait

Gsmblor hsd not been kind to me today.

litre_cola

I too lay before her a beaten man.

King Hippo

I am my usual prolific, inconsistent self. HAIL GAMBLOR.

/at least I had the sense to quit after my reckless Wolves HT bet sucked out

Redshirt

Gamblor, too.

Sharkbait

I swear Im not drunk. Have a passed out toddler on me making it hard to type

Viva La Tabula Raza

I’m grateful that Brady took the P*ts to 9 SBs, but that doesn’t mean I want to watch him do his pathetic Namath/Montana/Favre retirement tour. Just move to Florida like most retiring New Englanders and get the fuck out of my face.

King Hippo

All these media orgasms over MRSA Dreamboat, and Tampa is exactly the same goddamned team they were under Rapey Jameis last season.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Ah, but GRONK!

litre_cola

And the bible study masterbator!

King Hippo

Let he who has a free hand cast the first stone.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Or beat the first meat.

This one’s gonna be on Mike Evans.

Oh they went for it and the Broncos fell for the hard snap from Mr Magic Underwear. I’m sure the offense appreciate making their seventh string QB’s jobs even harder.

litre_cola

Hippo haz a sad

King Hippo

I mean, a puppy dies every time sommet keeps the Donks offense off the field.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I guess this is one of those Passing of the Torch games that is being stuffed down our throuats.

King Hippo

As soon as Mahomes learns to bitch out his teammates whenever he fucks up, like a REAL LEADER OF MEN.

Recovery Whiskey

The torch will be fully passed when Mahomes’ teammates leave him hanging on sideine high five attempts.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Guess it really is an insurmountable lead down at Megatron’s Butthole.

King Hippo

You saw how well-liked Gruden is in the coaching profession, when ATL kicked a 54-yard FG, up 40-6.

Viva La Tabula Raza

THESE OTHER GUYS, I CALL THEM SMALL-MINDED REVENGE FUCKS! I WILL MAKE SURE I COUGH ON THEM AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY!!!

oh, guarantee that the former voted for the latter

I need the Bucs to score like 50. Started RoJo, Gronk, and Evans

Why isn’t the Broncos game on every channel in every region?

For the same reason that they don’t televise the Special Olympics.
