Your “It’s For All The Moneys!” Sunday Night Football Open Thread

For a big game it doesn’t get much smaller than this. But hey, if a 3-7 Mississippi State football team can play in a bowl game then why can’t a desperately underachieving NFC East squadoo sully the good name of “the NFL Playoffs”? I see no reason, your case is dismissed and court is adjourned. [thinks to self, “That oughta please all those lawyer types out there.”]

TO THE GAME!

Team/Eagles:

-If Team had even slightly below-average qb play this year they wouldn’t be in this mess.

-I guess Alex Smith being able to start can be construed as good news although his PFF passer rating comes in at 31st among 38 qualifying tossers. Still, better than a bottle of Taylor Heinicke, right?

-A league-leading 67% of Smith’s passes are thrown short of the 1st down marker. I mean, I hate to pile on but Jeezuz that’s lousy. “He ain’t take any chances at all!”

-Hurts’ rushing attempts have decreased from 18 to 11 to 9 in the last three weeks but you’d think he’s have to reverse that trend if the Eagles plan on winning.

-Overall, an effective run game is needed to effectively sell play-action against Team’s nasty, pressurizing D.

-Missing in action for Philly is Cox, Sanders, Goedert, Barnett and Mailata. For Washington, Gibson and McLaurin are questionable.

-The absence of Mailata is a big one for the Eagles. It would seem that as a left guard he’ll be replaced by first-time starter Brent Toth. He’ll be facing-you guessed it-Chase Young all game long.

-Go Eagles! (just this one time and nevermind if the Giants blew it earlier today)

Praise be unto you all. Or something like that.

Don’t some of these Eagles have performance incentives in their contracts they need to fulfill to get extra bonuses this season?

They probably gave up on those when Wentz started sucking week 6

Premature slide

It’s good that Fulgham just decided to step out of bounds with no defender within 20 yards of him. OH GOOOOD!!! THE CURTAINS ARE ON FIRE!!

Fuck it, bring back Ronnie Brown and go full wildcat next year, let’s go crazy.

Does that receiver have a broken leg or something?

Quadrilaterals play each other every time the year is divisible by a prime number. Regular polygons never play each other in leap years, unless Easter is in April. Speech bubble teams have to trade uniforms when they play.

Alex Smith somehow emerging from 17 surgeries to be able to check down for 7 yards. It truly is a miracle

A true miracle would be Smith running a 2-minute offense in less than 3.

Cecil Rhodes

It is not clear to me why this Washington squadron is simply called “the Football Team”. The prominent statesmen in that city could surely come up with a better name. Why not select a name that honors the original inhabitants of the region? A team named after those brutes would certainly intimidate any opposition.

You get the +1 now, but if you continue to insult the Special Olympics by comparing them to the NFC East, you’ll get five across the eyes!

Doktor Zymm

So, as much as I want them to win, do the Eagles have any real motivation to play well here? Other than that always-on competitive go 1-0 every week BS, I mean.

Duchess

To fuck over the NoNamers

Redshirt

I’m calling it now. Philly is up by one with :15 seconds left on the WSH 1, but Hurts is hurt forcing Wentz to go in to a knee. Wentz, for revenge for being benched, takes the snap and runs backwards towards his own endzone for a safety to give the game to Washington, and suddenly the offense and defense has to reverse roles, with the Football Team blocking for Wentz while the Eagles try to tackle their turncoat QB.

Unsurprised

I want to invest in your screenplay.

Wentz isn’t even active. There goes my dream.

Mr. Ayo

And now you know why.

Donks loss moved us from 12th to 9th overall pick. Iggles win takes us to 8th.

pull for him to get some extra rest so can recover from his cancer!

It really doesn’t matter who wins this game. The Giants and the Football Team are both brutally flawed.

I just think its incredibly impressive for him to be able to serve as a coach while at the same time beating cancer.

Either one of those things put you on your ass.
