Your Second Sunday NFL Football Open Thread

Let’s keep it moving, shall we?

To The Games!

Lions/Broncos:

Javonte! I’ll be happy that if Gordon does play-he seems to be trending that way-that he’ll be on a pitch count so my guy can duplicate near to what he did last week. Denver sits at 6-6 and has Cincy, Las Vegas, the Chargers and the Chiefs the rest of the way so a W is vital here and I’ve no doubt they’ll get it. Should watch their kneecaps though…

Giants/Chargers:

Oh boy. This has beatdown written all over it because, though they are inconsistent the Chargers do tend to beat up lesser teams. The statue behind center that goes by the name of Glennon gets the start today. Why do teams have backup qb’s that are nothing like the starter with respect to skillset? You’d think the Giants would have signed a more mobile fella so that they could accomplish some of the same things on O. Instead, this concrete-footed ungulate is going to watch his o-line collapse in slow motion and he’ll not be able to escape pressure.

Niners/Bengals:

This one’s a curious inter-conference affair that I don’t know what to make of. So, umm, weather? And why was Mixon semi-stymied by the Chargers laughable run D last week? Burrow has a great future if he gets rid of the ball when pressure comes. Too many times this year I’ve seen him take the sack instead of throwing the ball away.

Bills/Bucs:

Buffalo gets another spotlight dance and they’ll likely collapse once again. They don’t look remotely like the team that busted out of the gate in weeks 2-5. But looking back they beat a Fins team before the latter got its shit together, a reeling TEAM with no competent qb, the Texans and a Chiefs team that just hasn’t been that impressive this season. The Bills O is far too reliant on Allen because their run game is such a travesty and there’s no indication that anyone is doing anything to improve it.

As you were.

Yay, Hendrickson is hurt.

King Hippo

Looking forward to nigh-exclusive coverage of Donks/N-F Lions (of course, the competitive game), because I really, really hate myself.

rockingdog

Mike Evans and RB Fournette both with TD’s for the Bucs
That’s Rocking!!!

Doktor Zymm

It’s really strange to think about how people in Akron probably envy people who get to live in Cincinnati

TheRevanchist

I mean, still in Ohio.

herodotus450

What about the people in Dayton!?

Doktor Zymm

They just complain about how much aviation fuel prices have increased since the Wright Bros had their workshop there, it’s really tiresome

NotShogunButShogun

This is NAWT a superb owl preview. This is why roe v. wade must be upheld.

Doktor Zymm

Wait- would the coaches in abortions of a game be subject to arrest in roughly half the states if R v. W is overturned??

NotShogunButShogun

Huh. Way to find the silver lining in tragedy!

Dunstan

Texas is offering a bounty for anyone willing to sue over this game.

Sean Payton and Gregg Williams raced each other to the courthouse.

Dunstan

Look, Susan Collins assured me that Roe is safe.

litre_cola

Old money? Did you use to tie onions to your belt as it was the style at the time?

Doktor Zymm

I assume he’s playing against the Astors and nawt those upstart Rockefellers with their tacky ballroom

King Hippo

I refuse to open that score page again.

yeah right

A bald Mike Glennon looks like a freshly shaved penis.

King Hippo

Boo-urnley manager Sean Dyche would like a word

Doktor Zymm

Is he bald to deter poachers? Kind of like how they remove the horns on rhinos?

Redshirt

The Giants are playing the Chargers? Well, the Bengals did lose to the Chargers, so I guess I’m now a New York Giants fan today.

Helen Hunt jumps out a window – YouTube

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Damnit, I want to watch the Bill game but CBS’s stupid login page won’t work right, and I’m sure as fuck not going to go outside and get the antenna.

Doktor Zymm

You’ve seen Brady fellatio before, just replay that in your head and you’ve got it. “gee, maybe Gronk will catch Brady’s 700th TD pass!”

Redshirt

Cincinnati Bengals: Better Lucky that Good!

yeah right

The best part about playing on Thursday night means I can just kick back, relax and watch football.

Who am I shittin’? I’m in the kitchen cooking my ass off.

As it should be.

Petronel

Oh, seriously?

Doktor Zymm

Chase got Megatronned

Doktor Zymm

Oh, or not, that actually was a good call and now he has a real catch

Doktor Zymm

That’s what I get for paying minimal attention to the games while making jokes about inflation on social media

Mr. Ayo

I’m not your pal, GUYton!

Redshirt

JaMarr Chase still knows how to catch?!

Narrator: “Its going to be overturned.”

Petronel

Nice catch (dammit)

Petronel

…maybe not?

Petronel

Nope

Mr. Ayo

LOL, that one counted though.

litre_cola

I see Shad Khan trending but in is an odd year futbol season so I know it ain’t about Fulham

Doktor Zymm

It’s actually about the fish, shad. There’s been an underwater coup and their democracy has been overthrown in favor of a tribal government ruled by a Khan, the Khan of Shad, or Shad Khan the First, fertilizer of roe and eater of larvae

Doktor Zymm

Evader of harbor seals

Redshirt

Joe Burrow is shunning Ja’Marr Chase so hard, even Scientologists thinks it a bit too much.

Mr. Ayo

This has not aged well.

Mr. Ayo

BLEERGH will disagree

Mr. Ayo

EVANSDOWN!

I take back nothing I’ve said about Br*dy though.

rockingdog

Jack White is going on Tour!!!
That’s Rocking!!!

Mr. Ayo

I’m going to Wichita

Fucking liar.

King Hippo

I like how NYG are playing all chilled out now. Like, we scored at least, our jerb is done here.

Doktor Zymm

That giant that suffered a home invasion at the hands of that Jack kid ended up dying from hypertensive issues. Los Gigantes are determines not to replicate his fate

King Hippo

ppl forget that!

/am being constantly reminded of just how humoUrous and smart Dok be

Doktor Zymm

Do you think football players wear thongs to avoid panty lines?

Mr. Ayo

Yes, but they call them jock straps.

Only difference from a banana hammock is the pocket for a protective cup.

Petronel

Do they still wear tail pads (or whatever that one’s called)? If so, the thong might not work well with it.

TheRevanchist

Now I’m looking and see plenty of panty lines.

Doktor Zymm

I think some of those are just how the pants are stitched, but nawt sure

Petronel

DEE-BO’d

King Hippo

that keeps me barely alive in FF

King Hippo

JEEBUS CHRIST, DONKS

Doktor Zymm

If there was a rule that said you got to replace one player on your team with whatever the team is named, that would be pretty useless for most teams, but would actually work really well for Washington, as they could replace one player with a competent football team

Clipboard Jesus

I mean it would have worked really well for Cleveland in the 30s and 40s.

Redshirt

If they could somehow teach a Bengal tiger to hold a football, they’d win at least one of those Super Bowls they played in.

I don’t know why you’d assume the football team was confident. What if it was like a monkey’s paw thing and the team was the Raiders or the Jets or the Jaguars?

Doktor Zymm

Fair, but probably still an advantage having almost double the players on the field

litre_cola

So the Bills are frauds eh?

King Hippo

es verdad

Doktor Zymm

Clown frauds!

Mr. Ayo

They’re as stable as a folding table.

NotShogunButShogun

Their fans are more legit than them.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

They’re gonna end the day one game in front of the Raiders, so I should say yes, they are absolutely frauds.

Petronel

Seen at Home Goods yesterday (no, I did not buy it).

THE BEN was 3-d, so even more terrifying from the side. (We put the sign on the left by it in case anyone else had the same reaction.)

And to think, they paid money to have those manufactured

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I feel like that…uh, thing would be a great “trophy” for a fantasy football league. Maybe the loser has to put it on their bedstand looking at them every night for two weeks?

Redshirt

Okay, who greased the pigskins in Cincy?

Mr. Ayo

*breathless Andy barges into the clubhouse*

King Hippo

Laura PalmerDOWN!

TheRevanchist

Multiple dropped passes and 2 dropped punts. This Bengals team has some fundamental football issues.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It’s exceedingly shallow but now that Justin Herbert no longer looks like a walking Clearasil ad I find him more likeable.

King Hippo

Nobody likes the visually unpleasant. It may not be right, but is universal.

Don T

Corollary: successful uglies are robotic go-getters.

Mr. Ayo

That hippie still needs to get a haircut.

King Hippo

and shave those sideburns!

King Hippo

NC State led #1 Purdue by like 13 points with 5:00 to play. They lost in OT. By ten. Because fuck everything associated with Hippo.

King Hippo

Good use of Spotlight Dance! And yeah, they’ll fuck it up again.

Redshirt

The entire 49ers team frantically signaling they have the loose ball. The entire Bengals teams frantically signaling for medics due to injured player.

Yep, its going to be one of those games.

NotShogunButShogun

Why would you push fournette INTO the end zone? Get it over with?

I needed that score badly. YAY HORNY FOURNY

Sharkbait

Is that what were calling MRSA now?

Redshirt

Has Urban Meyer been fired yet?

Mr. Ayo

No, Khan wants to grind out this season with him.

TheRevanchist

Based on his record, pretty sure he quit back in week 1

rockingdog

Really hoping Fournette and Mikeeee Evans have big games vs da Billlls
That’s would be Rocking!

NotShogunButShogun

The only way Buffalo has a shot is if everyone watches something else. Any attention loosens their bowels worse than visine in your drink.

rockingdog

Found a funny;

Women are like candles

They are hot

They smell good

There are a lot of them in Target

Dunstan

They’re a good place to dip your wick?

FOUR?? FOUR GOD-DAMNED YARDS?

HEY URBAN:

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yeah, I had him too.

Redshirt

Eight gosh-darned rush attempts.

litre_cola

Gordon hurt. Fuck.

Sharkbait

He’s back

litre_cola

Everything else today has gone to shit, I expected the worst.

NotShogunButShogun

FINISH HIM!

NotShogunButShogun

So 95% of the nation gets mrsabills?

Brocky

Last minute fantasy advice:

I’ve got 2 recibers playing Monday night, (Hopkins and obj) and I’ve got Murray starting Monday night

But I’m thinking of switching out Murray for Tom Brady and Emmanuel sanders for one of the wrs, thoughts?

The Maestro

I am officially out of the LDB challenge as of five minutes ago due to the radio on in the car. FUCK.

Afternoon, you fine folks. The Grey Cup awaits.

Gumbygirl

I’m still in, but that’s probably because Gumby and I are pretty much skipping Christmas this year. We’re (allegedly) closing on our condo a few days later, so we have enough on our plate. Didn’t even put up the tree.

Mr. Ayo

48-9 Emo Scorigami!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

That’s My Raiders about to get Cowboy Bebopped.
