Your Very Second Sunday NFL Football Open Thread

Boy, that first slate was uninspiring wasn’t it? [is typing this at 6am] Perhaps we’ll have better luck this time around?

TO THE GAMES!

Rams/Cards:

Since their bye week the Rams have switched things up and thrown the 3rd-most amount of times and Kupp should be the primary beneficiary because Arizonny doesn’t defend the slot very well. Goff also does well against this division rival-last year he averaged 300 yards and 2.5 TD’s. Kyler is trying to play thru a shoulder ouchie and it has inhibited his ability to… run? He’s only had 10 carries for 46 yards the last 2 weeks.

Giants/Seahawks:

The Good? Rook o-lineman Andrew Thomas’ pass-blocking has steadily improved over the last month. [visions of Ereck Flowers have danced thru Giants fan’s heads] The Bad? For today’s game the lb unit is awash in UDFA’s, practice squadders and last round rookie picks. The Even More Bad? Qb fill-in Colt McCoy can’t make some of the basic longer throws required at his position. He’s that type that rainbows his passes to a spot on the field and prays that the wr runs under it before the cb/safety does. Guh. D.K. should have himself another good day, ain’t matter who defends him.

Eagles/Packers:

Speaking of long shots, I can’t help thinking that although Adams will get his, Rodgers will be looking for MVS at some point. Why? His 6’4″, 205 frame will be matched up against either Maddox (5’9″, 185) or Robey-Coleman (5’8″, 180). Jump Balls Ahoy, Matey! Rb Sanders will likely do well given that the Packers run D has given up an average of 101.1 yards per game to the opposing lead back over the last 3 games.

Pats/Chargers:

When you think about exploitable pass defenses the Pats don’t usually come to mind but if you’re a qb that likes to take deep shots, (like a certain acne-ravaged rook qb) only ATL and Detroit give up a higher percentage of completed passes. If you’re shopping for a safe, boring floor as far as rb’s are concerned look no further than Damien Harris. Since week 4 he’s fifth in rushing yards but 6 spots have been hard to come by. The dynamic runner that was ahead of Josh Jacobs on the Balallama depth chart has, under the supervision of Belichick, been turned into a dumb plodder. This further reinforces my theory every time someone puts on a Pats jersey they die a little inside-it could be physically or mentally or ethically but it happens.

Give it your best down below.

All games over before 7:30. At least I have time to lube up for SNF.

Uhh… what the fuck are the San Diego “FUCK YOU, SPANOS’ ” doing!? At this point the Pats are so over this game, they put in Jar-Jar to close things out… and they do a TOD in their fucking RZ?!

I should eat something. Maybe a frozen burrito?

The only block and tackle techniques the Eagles appear to know have to do with pulleys.

Think I had a good chair nap. Well done Giants, Congrats on winning the NFC East I think?

Horatio Cornblower

Just ruining a good draft pick, which is pretty much what Gettleman would have done with it anyway.

Horatio Cornblower

Russell Wilson fucking up will never not be funny to me.

Redshirt

Its funny for all his defenders. It reminds me of Brucey in the latest Longest Yard.

“Why don’t you give Wilson a chance?!”
(Wilson blows it)
“That’s why. Sit down and shut up.”
“Its his line’s fault.”

King Hippo

I made stinkeye, but I am sad we ain’t have the scheduled hoopsball Derby.

Somewhere, Tom Cable just tore his fave wifebeater Hulk Hogan style.

Philadelphia may have found themselves a quarterback.

That’s how u RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!

YEAH

Can’t wait for the manufactured Danny Dimes-Colt McCoy QB controversy if this result holds.

Mostly sucks vs. Sort of sucks

My brother just sent pictures of him celebrating his 50th birthday by jumping into the ocean.

Off of Rhode Island.

Not gonna see 51 with that kind of approach.

“Not gonna see 51 with that kind of approach”
That’s what I say to local political types ?

¿Libertad o Muerte?

¡Sí! But, personally, let’s hold off on the Muerte until after the 2022 World Cup.

A few assumptions about this team may need to be re-evaluated.

Unsurprised

1) They play as a team.

Rudy admitted to Georgetown hospital. GooooCovid!

I consider myself a good Christian person, but if COVID claims him, I will do the Ickey Shuffle.

Unsurprised

I’ll be deeply disappointed. The Illuminati’s going to have to give up someone much bigger than this fucking greaseball.

Gumbygirl

He was at that Georgia shitshow, hopefully he kissed Perdue and Loeffler. Repeatedly.

With tongue.

They couldn’t hear it over the crowd noise

Horatio Cornblower

So glad the Cowboys didn’t try to add Jamal Adams.

I might have had hope for this season, and where would be the character building in that?

ThePirateSloth

The Seahawks are awful as fuck today.

I don’t mean to be a pedantic pain in the ass, but isn’t that a water buffalo? I thought gnu’s were wildebeasts.

I’m wrong. That is a gnu. The horns are different.

Thank you, Monsignor.

My over bet on the Quards/Rammit not looking too good

Ah, Force Awakens, an ambitious first step in the Sequel Trilogy. That followed a dangerous second step in Last Jedi that destroyed the established canon more than the latest season of Doctor Who and was finished by a scared final step in Rise of Skywalker that returned to the norm while following a fan faction.

Horatio Cornblower

Still haven’t see the last one, but I did see, and like, the Han Solo origin story one.

I may be the only one who did like it.

Redshirt

Rise of Skywalker is good, but its not Star Wars good.

Horatio Cornblower

I don’t have militant feelings about much of Star Wars, other than that people who like Jar Jar Binks are richly deserving of genocide.

Game Time Decision

My old neighbour worked. on him at ILM or whatever is called. The guy who came up with the idea has PTSD about it

Redshirt

Good.

Horatio Cornblower

What Redshirt said.

Unsurprised

Solo had its moments and the villain reveal was one of the only genuine “Oh, shit!” moments I can remember having in a theater.

Rise of Skywalker… It’s a series of classic JJ Abrams retarded fetch quests, shitting on TLJ (quite blatantly done,btw) … and grandpa Palpy’s back, yo… Y’know, the same Palpy that got atomized in Return of the Jedi…

But what takes the cake is (sorry for the spoiler, but … seriously, it’s too retarded )

… a major plot point is about space ships… not knowing how to go up

Unsurprised

Last Jedi was the only good one of the three and J.J. Abrams sucks and ruins everything he touches.

ThePirateSloth

The entire trilogy is terrible, because there was never a full story arc created, no thought to details, no care given to world building.

Unsurprised

Abrams got to remake episode 4 to jerk himself off. That’s kind of caring.

And Rian got to shit on the franchise and then kept on making movies where I have to liberally borrow from litre’s stash just so I stop noticing how insanely retarded and poorly written his “good” movies are
(Not saying that as defence to Lensflare Abrams… they both suck and should be executed for making the PT look good in comparison)

“Ambitious first step” … did we watch the same bloody movie? That movie was a bloody retread of the “hits of movies past” … only as re-written by idiots and acted out by planks…
