Week 2, 2021 – Early Games Filler Thread

Still waiting to hear from Scotchy, but figured I should barf this up just in case (It’s at least a START, fatty!  – Karen C.)

Bengals (+1.5) at Bears

What a Brave New World, Bearistocrats! have sucked and fucked their way to not even getting the “standard 3” home to Team WKRP.  I’m not complaining, mind.

Texans (+13.5) at Browns

Look, #ThePauls always give the Andy Reid Chefs fits.  But I’m not sure they should be this heavily favoUred over a college team, or even the Falcons.

Rams (-4) at Colts

Whaddya know, RRRRRRRRRAM IT!! goes all in to shed their emotionally/intellectually stunted QB, while the Fat Humps go out and acquire one.  Ships sailing in opposite directions.

Bills (-3.5) at Dolphins

This line sure doesn’t reflect Week 1’s harsh realities, given that the LOLfins beat Belicheat on the road, whilst BUF lost at home to the putrid (at least in my headspace) Yinzers.  But I ain’t betting it.

49ers (-3) at Eagles

Lots of small road favoUrites = very narrow survivor pool trees.  If TB or GB lose, half your pool goes down.  Perhaps MOAR?

Raiders (+5) at Steelers

Like I said, PIT ain’t no good.  But neither are That’s Rikki’s Raiders – and I am especially skeptical coming off an emotional MNF win.

Saints (-3) at Panthers

This seems like a sucker line, given how Sean Payton owns the Black Panthers.  Who also acquired an actual ret….Special Young Mani to play QB.  I feel less bad about mocking Touch of Downs given that he’s an anti-vaxxer weirdo.

Broncos (-6) at Jaguars

Oh my cats, is I ever worried.  Doing all I can to break the likely hex (coming off road win, JAX looking putrid, weird atmosphere, historical bogey side, etc.), posting the good luck pic of me cat and favoUrite shirt, actually putting my Chubb on (I shall spare ye that picture), drinking coffee from Donks mug.  And I even bet $50 on Jaguras ML.

Patriots (-6) at Jets

I almost forgot this’un, which would be bad, given the number of supporters in the Clubhouse for each.  Neither squadron had a positive start, but everyone expects the Jest to continue Jesting.  I dunno, didn’t even consider NE for survivor.

Reclusive, vulgar Broncos fan. Also a proud fookin' Evertonian. Likely dropped on my head repeatedly as a small child. [Insert George Carlin quote followed by thoughtful nod.]

Carr drops a bomb

Petronel

Oh WTF

Horatio Cornblower

My decision to take Cleveland in the DFO Eliminator Challenge has definitely put a crimp on my plans for a gently used fleshlight.

Horatio Cornblower

Zach Wilson looks less than good.

Horatio Cornblower

Shit, I have Jared Goff backing up Dak. I might be worse off than you.

Mother Puncher

Fuck this. If I wanted to see Burrow throw 3 consecutive interceptions I’d just play Madden

litre_cola

If you are playing against Burrow you haz a happy.

Gatoraids

Burrows going to go for the butt fumble next

Petronel

REPLAY PLZ

Horatio Cornblower

Sure glad I decided to keep playing him “for just one more week”, like the fantasy genius I am.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

To a previous inquiry: Uncle Ed has been arrested. He was trying to burn down a Mormon temple but got a Sikh one instead.

Horatio Cornblower

Hate when that happens

Gumbygirl

So it was a Sikh burn?

Spur

woot woot
Bunch of points in Indy!

Sanchize: “But this guy Joe Burrow, he’s ready to put that last interception behind him and throw the next–”
Other football talking guy: “–interception by the Bears.”

herodotus450

Football talking guy: “Ok Mark Sanchez, what happened on this pick-6.”
Sanchize: “Well the Delta-Lamba-Delta Formal just ended but it was still 2 hours until last call so…”

herodotus450

Football talking guy: “You’ve gotta be feeling pretty good if you’re a Bengals fan right now.”
Me: “Well that’s right, most of them probably just took their midday insulation inject–
Football talking guy: “…and the Bears return it for a touchdown. That’s gotta hurt for Bengals fans.”

Gatoraids

Is it already Thursday night

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Tums should sponsor an awards ceremony called the Tummies.

litre_cola

Playing them in 2 leagues. Fuck.

Horatio Cornblower

Sure glad I decided to keep him on the bench “for just one more week”, like the fantasy idiot I am.

Carr was just mostly ded.

Touchdown Burrows

Doktor Zymm

This Bengals/Bears game is emblematic of the deterioration of the Rust Belt

If I was in the Jags marketing department, I would say they were sucking so bad to draw attention to the endangered status of the eponymous feline

Mother Puncher

Is it ungodly hot in Chicago now? These guys have looked gassed since the game started

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

No, it’s cause gas prices are so high. Thanks, Biden!

80F is ungodly hot for the typical Bears meat sausage fan

Gumbygirl

I went to the Taste of Chicago years ago. It was almost 100 degrees out, and there were 600,000 people crammed into Grant Park. I was touched by about 578,000 of them. It was the grossest day ever.

herodotus450

The real reason Brady and Co. left New England: so they could finally star in as many shitty commercials as possible without having to surrender “The Belichick Cut”

Dunstan

Not to be confused with “The Andy Reid Cut,” which is an entire side of beef.

Gatoraids

Red zone rocking music for 10 yd completion. Shoulda just used fox injury music for aiijuks first catch of the year

Big Ben no like bad touches

Bears trying so hard to lose but the Bengals won’t let them

My favorite sports quote of all time was when someone said that “Bernie Kosar runs like a giraffe on Quaaludes.”

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

“Sorry, Derek, we’re only gonna flag the Steelers for one dirty-as-fuck hit per game.”

Doktor Zymm

Carr now out of the QB survival pool

Anthony In TX

Is it just me, or is fucking EVERYONE getting hurt today?

add Carr to the list of dead QBs

WCS

Carr crashed

Petronel

I know this isn’t an original question, but…is Schlereth always this dorky?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It’s fun hearing the announcers mispronounce Foster Moreau’s name as More-ee-ow.

Recovery Whiskey

Did the Shield say last week was great, we need to ramp it down a little?

Doktor Zymm

Every older guy with a moustache and a sweater vest just experienced a teethy blow job sensation during those last few Fields plays

Gumbygirl

Older guys in sweater vests aren’t getting blowies.

Doktor Zymm

Oh it’s all psychosomatic, or possibly a Malort hallucination

Recovery Whiskey

Unless its by the hour. Also you vastly underrate the power of daddy issues

Gumbygirl

Let me rephrase: older guys in sweater vests aren’t getting blowies from me.

Viva La Tabula Raza

The weird shiny green of the Jets’ helmets puts me in mind of the carapace of those big green horseshit flies.

Dunstan

Interesting comparison.

Gatoraids

Franz Kafka could come up with a more coherent team

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

God I hate those fucking things.

/the flies, not the Jets. I actually like the Jets, but I know better than to expect anything from them other than comical failure.

Doktor Zymm

Fun Fake Fact: There is only one APA approved treatment for Imposter Syndrome, and that is playing the Jets

Gatoraids

Only APA we listnyto
