Your Thursday Night NFL Football Open Thread

Huh, Taylor’s on a bye, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are Covided, Elijah Moore and Burrow are questionable and James Robinson is getting jerked around by the Jags. Welp, it was fucking fun playing fantasy this year! Gerd Damn it!

Newsy Notes:

-What a ridiculous travesty going on in Jacksonville. Robinson is trying to say all the right words but it’s gotta be weird for the only playmaker on the team to be punished for fumbling the way that he was. And Hyde fumbled as well and wasn’t taken out because he played under Meyer at Ohio State so it doesn’t count. And then to be sent out in garbage time for a couple of carries… Meyer has pledged to reporters that he’ll ‘be more involved’ going forward. That was after throwing his rb coach under the bus. What did Khan say about ‘earning trust’ after The Fondling Debacle? The guy can’t be trusted to shepherd kids along a crosswalk.

-It’s The Nanobots Coursing Thru His Veins-Coach McCarthy, fresh off his Covid respite has guaranteed a win vs TEAM. Fresh perspective I guess. He doesn’t seem to realize that his team plays in the NFC East, the division where everyone plays down to the competition.

-Niners rook rb Mitchell is in concussion protocol and just had an MRI done on his knee. According to Baby Shanny, everything is just peachy and he should be ready to go. Robert Griffin tried to reach out to Mitchell but his knee buckled while doing so.

To The Game!

Steelers/Vikes:

-He’s A Monster (in a good way!) Frickin’ TJ Watt has 16(!) sacks in 10(!) games played. It’ll be a test for him and the Vikes o-line because the latter has given up the 2nd-least amount of sacks so far this year.

-Interesting that the Lions bind these teams together in that they’ve had their way with each of them.

-Cook is apparently trying to make a go of it having dislocated his shoulder a mere 11 days ago. He’s not long for this league at this rate.

-That Nasty Prevent Defense- Minny has given up a total of 305 points this year. A third (101) of that has been surrendered in the last two minutes of each half.

-Stat That Might Be Related to Above Stat-In games decided by 8 points or less the Steelers are 6-1-1 and the Vikes are 4-7.

Have at it.
