Your Thursday Night NFL Football Open Thread

There’s almost too much going on, right? And like Dolly Parton’s eventual passing, the news is top-heavy.

-The Ballad of OBJ. He was held out of practice again and it looks as though there will be a parting of ways. If the Browns were willing to wait until the end of the season they could save 15 mil vs the cap but the former electrifying talent is nothing if not a distraction. All I know is that if I created problems for my 28 year-old son’s employer I’d ask someone to shoot me.

-Aaron Rodgers is smarter than you. And you. And you. He’s smarter than everyone. I’m now immunized to his bullshit.

-Dumb Wr, Chapter The Two: Kadarius Toney came to Henry Ruggs’ aid through the twitter and reminded us all that ‘everyone makes mistakes’, which, although a trite observation, is true. Thing is, the vast majority of us don’t do it while travelling at 156 miles per hour.

To The Game!

Jets/Colts:

-Welcome to The Mike White Experience. I’m just not sure what the fanbase is going to do if he has another above average game.

-One thing he will do is dump off to the Michael Carter’s of the world. He’s thrown 32 passes to rb’s in just two appearances. Alvin Kamara looks towards Jersey wistfully…

-Another rb on a roll is one Jonathan Taylor-he’s strung together five straight 100 yard games (from scrimmage) which only one other back has done this year.

-If the Colts play to form they win this given that they have lost to every +.500 team and have beaten every -.500 squadoo.

Give me your game face.

Who the hell is that failure pile?

King Hippo

Josh Johnson isn’t even real, the computer database just made him up.

Senor Weaselo

Bobson Dugnutt is more believable.

Doktor Zymm

QB Turing tests never really caught on

Doktor Zymm

Is Jonathon Taylor any relation to that kid from Home Improvement?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

No, but if he doesn’t hem those pants I dropped off soon he’s gonna end up like that Home Improvement kid.

/assumes that kid is dead

Hey, a whole five quarters of nice things. That’s not quite a record, but probably one for the last several years.

litre_cola

No Wentzdown fer yew Hippo!

King Hippo

I will be super happy when Charmslinger comes back, and I can fire Dakota Jeebus into the fantasy sun.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

For a second some stat that said Jets 7 – Colts 67 flashed on the screen and I thought it was the score (I just turned the game on) and my only reaction was “huh, that happened more quickly than I expected.”

NotShogunButShogun

So glad my $8,000 tent is being used.

King Hippo

Just use your other hand, PUSSY!

Spur

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Seriously. You play for the Jets. What’s the worst thing that could happen?

/something even worse than that happens

Spur

No! Not the Blue Tent of Death for Mike White!

Flaccotime?????

Don T

I’m hearing the Hannah Storm – Andrea Kremer audio of the game. Amazing. This is what I imagine being at a spa feels.

Dunstan

Well, the Habs stink and the Dolphins stink, so my sports fandom can go into hibernation for the winter until the Australian Open rolls around in January.

Time to drink!

King Hippo

Pascal should wear Avogadro’s Number.

King Hippo

Why hello futbol de Sudamericano. SURE, I can betcha!!

Doktor Zymm

The Jets unis are kind of like if penguins were ugly instead of cute

Senor Weaselo

As a puffin (whilst in formalwear, according to Senorita Weaselo), suck it, Jets unis!

NotShogunButShogun

Ohh…the fan(s)…they know a basket of puppies is about to be shot. While they swallow totchos and stupid pork tenderloin.

NotShogunButShogun

And yes totchos are exactly what they sound like.

litre_cola

With the fluorescent cheese?

NotShogunButShogun

Si!

Doktor Zymm

Is stupid pork juicier than pork of average intelligence? Or that pig from Charlotte’s Web?

NotShogunButShogun

I’ve just never understood the obsession. It’s pounded flatter than paper and really just breading between bread.

What did Troy just call him ? Forest De Buckner? Close enough!

Fronkenshteen

Fuck the fucking Jets. Jesus Christ. Just forfeit the fucking game if this is all the defense you can physically mount. Fuck this franchise. Fuck Woody Johnson. Fuck Donald Trump. Fuck America. Fuck football. Fuck everything.

If you didn’t read that in Buttheads voice there is something wrong with you.

King Hippo

I did. But there is still much wrong with Hippo.

Gumbygirl

Always.

Fronkenshteen

I’m from Virginia. Back off. It’s been a bad week.

Senor Weaselo

So who got their free taco? I did. It was not a Locos Taco. I’m okay with that, because a free regular taco is superior.

Okay, superior by Taco Bell standards, and now I don’t have to go back until the next stolen base gimmick.

Anthony In TX

Living in southeast Texas, I feel like I’m betraying my state by going to Taco Bell. I also prefer not to have diarrhea that’s 12% meat and 88% sawdust.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Oh crap! I missed it! I suppose I could still go but I’m cooking steak.

Doktor Zymm

Shitty pizza has arrived!

And Hines just doubled his season-long fantasy score

rockingdog

LoL
Saw couple of articles today about how you should SIT him for this game

NotShogunButShogun

Huh. I smells the wacky tobaccy! Can’t say I disagree. Spark em for the soon to be deceased wentz.

Gumbygirl

That field looks like it’s moulting. I’d be high too.(I am high too.)

NotShogunButShogun

It is shite. If they actually practiced here, it would’ve been replaced by now.

Spur

Wentz was/isnt that bad. Eagles really dumb giving up so soon on him.

Anthony In TX

As I understand it, he was really unpopular in the Eagles’ locker room. I think it was as much a personality/team fit issue as it was a performance issue.

King Hippo

1) He’s pretty bad.
2) He’s REALLY stupid.
3) They needed out of his albatross contract.

litre_cola

Throw the ball to Pittman!!

rockingdog

That would be ROCKING!

Colts: “Let’s wear head-to-toe blue so we look stupider than the Jets.”
Jets (eyeing black pants with green helmet and white jersey): “Oh, I don’t know about that…”

clint greasewood

Do the jets always wear black face mask?

Senor Weaselo

I think it’s normally white face mask until they’re wearing mono-color. But they won in black (tops) so ride wearing black into the ground!

For the next week or so. Good riddance, I hate the black unis.

NotShogunButShogun

The jests helmets are greener than the field, which I imagine looks suitably crappy on tv.

Gumbygirl

I like those shiny helmets!

litre_cola

That’s because you are high which makes things better.

Spur

That field is the only green thing most of those Indy fans have seen all month.

NotShogunButShogun

How do you fuck up a kickoff‽

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I assume the Jets found a way?

rockingdog

Found a funny;

Hell yeah I’m into STEM

Mike White is either going 30/37 for 350 yards and 4 TDs or 12/27 for 56 yards and 3 INTs. No in between.

Spur

I came to watch some White Power Plays

Dunstan

You didn’t get enough on election night earlier this week?

Spur

Afternoon Folks

Fronkenshteen

Thirty touches for Mike Carter please. I’m not fucking kidding. Get. This kid. The ball.

litre_cola

Colts, Jets. I assume this is on the list of Hippo’s must attendance in the clubhouse?

NotShogunButShogun

Hell I’m boots on the ground and I don’t wanna be here.

litre_cola

Is the gravy flowing as far as the eye can see?

Doktor Zymm

How full is your souvenir gravy bucket?

King Hippo

oh, we needs a full book report on this fixture

NotShogunButShogun

I work here. Field crew. Tis the blandest, soulless stadium I can imagine.

Senor Weaselo

THIS GUY RIGHT HERE, I CALL HIM HERCULES MULLIGAN BECAUSE HE’S OUR MAN ON THE INSIDE!

/Hamilton joke

I read John Madden’s “Hey, Wait a Minute, I Wrote a Book” in a coupla days. A big chunk during rehearsal of my BFF’s band.
-⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for the book
-🥺😩😢😭😭 for my personal life back then.

rockingdog

Firing up Carson Wentz as my QB1 tonight!
Colts should be Rocking!!!
Gooo! 🏈

King Hippo

I shall be disappoint if travelling Jest supporters don’t start a CHUCK! BUCK! SUCK! FUCK!! chant.

Anthony In TX

It must make Joe Buck so sad that he has to jack off to baseball highlights now instead of the live game.
Joe Buck loves him some baseball.

Don T

Didn’t know my diet needed this much Mark Sanchez. Why? He’s the bean sprouts of the NFL food pyramid.

Sources say Aaron Rodgers, after his covid debacle, has moved into second for the Jeopardy hosting gig, naturally still behind Mike Richards.

NotShogunButShogun

Coming to you live from the Lubricant Barn. I have zero interest in being here, aside from money dollars. The crowd goes mild.

Doktor Zymm

Booster shot yesterday, then super busy day today, so I kinda want shitty pizza with way too much cheese. I think I’m gonna order shitty pizza with way too much cheese.

litre_cola

Shitty pizza with too much cheese is the only way to make shitty pizza delicious.

King Hippo

LAWD, ah dunno how we’s can all still be imaginary friends. ANY cheese is too much cheese.

litre_cola

I will stack this taek beside your Cold War Kids love.

Doktor Zymm

This way we can order the appetizer sampler platter without arguing over who gets the cheese sticks!

rockingdog

Booster shot!
That’s Rocking!

Don T

Rootin’ for a 3-0 NY Jets win with lotta turnovers. Get the Clots D points + BYE PRIME TIME INDY

Shouldn’t this matchup be early Sunday morning from Wembley?

King Hippo

ah sez YAAAASSSSS

Little known fact: you can keep submitting Quotables entries through Thursday, but they’re going to lose to Spam no matter what

What grade beef is that?

Doktor Zymm

NYJ needs to *accidently* list Mike White as White Mike. They’d shut down the NFL Online Shop with custom #6 McArdle jerseys. Even non-The Wire fans would jump on board because people love this kind of thing.

But the NFL sucks at marketing so….

Anthony In TX

Of course, they’ll have plenty of Pats fans who are more than happy to buy a jersey with the name “White” on the back…
