Your Sunday Night NFL Football Open Thread

To The Game!

Broncos/Chiefs:

-This is such an interesting spotlight dance for these two squadoos. Has Mahomes fixed his problems? Can Denver do that voodoo that that they did do vs the Cowboys?

-Rb Williams over the last two games was starting to increase his snap share over Gordon and now that the latter is out we might get a glimpse of what he’s really capable of.

-Shall I talk about the old “Andy has a remarkable record coming out of the bye week” saw? Nope, because I couldn’t find the stat.

-The Little Underdog That Could: If Denver gets the win here they’ll be in first place in the AFC West just like no one predicted-least of all their fans. Or casual observers.

-Which leads me to believe that “Fangio is on the hot seat” was entirely a media and fan-driven fairy tale meant to entertain only themselves.

-She’s been talked about quite a bit and the two high coverage shell look that many teams have used vs the Chiefs is Fangio’s bread and butter. Or at least he uses it more than almost any team in the league.

-Entire season-long stats tell you that the Chiefs have allowed a generous 364 yards per game to opponents but over the last six games that number has shrunk to 303. Their DC, a guy that ran the Giants for awhile, is known as Spags and he knows his stuff.

Have at it down below.

Ok, as long as Josh Allen scores fewer than 44 fantasy points tomorrow, I’m good. What’s that yahoo, there’s a 9% chance of that happening? Where can hippo and I bet on that?

It’s been a long day! Meeting the inspector tomorrow morning at the new place. I’m not expecting any big issues, but you never know. Until you find out, and then you know.

I’m sitting here under my Chiefs blanket, feeling the warmth of this night. Merry Christmas month, everybody!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

If that blanket didn’t come loaded with smallpox you should ask for your money back.

yeah right

Now let’s just say for arguments sake that Pat Mahomes turns out to be not very good. Work with me here.
They invested 10 years and like a quarter of a billion dollars.

Doesn’t that set this team back about 2 decades?

I get the whole championship thing man, I’m a Cubs fan but just saying.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I just hope he doesn’t turn out to be as much of a shit as Qaaron Rodgers did.

Mr. Ayo

DONKS OOF!

Sharkbait

Drinking this tonight. Excellent brown ale

Been off-line most of the day, getting outdoor stuff done, (are my neighbor’s leaves back on her property, where they belong? You bet!), and haven’t checked in much beyond noting Scotchy’s brilliant banner comment.

But I did get back to the games just in time to hear Cris say that there would never be anyone like Tyreek Hill, as though that were a bad thing.

Also, having one of these for dessert. Turns out it’s 11.4%. Think I’ll make this one last

I bet the Broncos coaching staff is stupid enough to think the clock was going to keep running even if that fourth down run got stopped.

King Hippo

Meh. Correct decision to go for it. Maybe Mahomes at least doesn’t score from inside his own 10 right before half.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It was, but they shouldn’t have run the ball.

Horatio Cornblower

Forget it, Rikki; it’s Bridgewater.

King Hippo

Just ONCE, I want them to call abated to the QB

Horatio Cornblower

That’s holding.

King Hippo

11-minute drive, mighty nice

Don T

In lieu of drinks, sympathy pen hits foar Scotchy 💨

yeah right

His nickname better be “Squeaky.”

Horatio Cornblower

The good news for Scotchy is that someone other than Gettleman seems likely to be making the high pick next year.

Mr. Ayo

I would like to take a moment to send my thoughts, regards, and condolences to the Fant family. I was not aware Noah had passed so suddenly at such a young age.

Operation Red Challenge Flag. STATUS – Much Failure!

King Hippo

NEVAR go Full Lovie Smith

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

That’s a fumble, but they won’t overturn it.

King Hippo

Operation Clean Sheet Avoidance. STATUS – Great Success!

KC’s skyline was impressive, especially the Spiral Ham auditorium.

King Hippo

JUDGE JEUDY WOO

[blinks sleepily] – DOINK

King Hippo

CE-H runs much more decisively after his knee boo-boo. Which makes fuckall sense.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Didn’t he also have the flu or some shit? He should be on an IV at home instead of taking all these possessions.

King Hippo

Nobody on Tyreek. Interesting strategy, Cotton.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I need some points from Kelce and Teddy tonight, so…make it happen

BrettFavresColonoscopy

No points for Sutton, please Mr. Monkey Paw.

King Hippo

I am fading Kelce hard but I hope Teddy Ballgame makes up for it for ya.

King Hippo

Carrie Underwood just does nothing FOAR Hippo sexually. Ah miss arguing with tWBS about that.

yeah right

You are not alone. Maybe it’s the country western caterwauling but not even a tingle.

King Hippo

Will they force ONE schlub to pick DEN?

Yes. But it’s Ghoul Dungy.

King Hippo

SHEEEEEIT FAHR, I done did my time in #NuAIDS convalescence!

hippofant

Yep. Also we know it can infect cats and dogs too. Which basically means we’re never going to eliminate Covid, we’re just hoping that mild variants evolve.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Maybe if SOMEONE would stop sleeping with the zoo animals….

King Hippo

Troy McClure shifts uncomfortably

King Hippo is a lot of caffeine.

/come back to us, makeitsnow!!

Fangio MAY still be on the hot seat. But we are learning to love new GM George Paton (formerly of the SKOL front office), who has done remarkable work building roster depth and making shrewd trade moves.

If he decides he wants his own guy (without playoffs, that’s what I expect), we will give him full faith and confidence.
