Your Monday Night NFL Football Doubleheader Open Thread

This will be quick and dirty as I’ve be sleeping all day. The transformation into Hippo is almost complete.

Newsy Notes:

-The Chiefs Willie Gay has been suspended for 4 games for violating-you guessed it-‘personal conduct policies’. I think Andy must be happy because it fills his one per year quota.

-Trey Lance (or is it Lance Trey?) had surgery first thing this morning to repair his ankle. First thing this morning Jimmy G went out and had himself a huge, satisfying breakfast. He tipped 75%.

-Truth Biscuit threw OC Matt Canada under the bus yesterday. That noise you hear is Kenny Pickett’s music.

To The Games!

Titans/Bills:

-These guys have played 5 years in a row but you don’t hear too much about this being a rivalry.

-Josh Gordon is Back! Where is the faith in Racey McMath? They’re treating him like a damn variable.

-Titans are getting an early start on devastating injuries-they have 7 players on IR already.

Vikes/Eagles:

-I’ve the notion that J.J. will no doubt cause the Eagles to rue the fact that they chose Jalen Reagor over Jefferson. Funny that Reagor, now on Minny’s roster, will get a front row seat to the proceedings.

-How did Devonta not even get a catch last week when the Eagles piled up 38 points of offense last week?

-Can’t help but think that old dependable Kirkie will get the Vikes up early in this game. The question then becomes, “Will Philly stick to their incredibly effective run game or will they panic?”

Do that thing.

Going on record again to say I don’t understand the Buck/Aikman hate locomotive that runs through this place. There are MANY more targets more deserving of your collective scorn.

Fronkenshteen

Root for Ross Tucker to make his way through the ranks to become the go to analyst on national TV games. Listened to him on the radio again tonight at work. He’s fucking great.

Let’s take a final look in at the Queen before she’s interred forever.

There’s no way Aikman lives that long.

THESE VIKINGS I CALL THEM THE HAPSBURGS, BECAUSE MAINTAINING RELATIONS WITH COUSINS IS DESTROYING THEM!!

Fronkenshteen

Banner! (Sorry Dok)

Sharkbait

Mrs Sharkbait needs Sanders to just run this game out. She has Goedert as well going up against Dal Cook, and is trailing by 2

Mr. Ayo

Uh oh.

Sharkbait

Need Kirk to Cousins this possession away almost instantly.

Quantum Leap wasn’t that bad. It was a bit average, but admittedly so was the original at times. They are trying to incorporate the past and present instead of just the past so its a nice touch. Actors are decent. Special effects are good for a network show.

It may last only a season (or less), but I’m in.

Dunstan

Who knows — pretty sure that the remakes of Hawaii Five-O and MacGyver have lasted longer than the originals, or are getting close to it. I’ll check out QL.

Brick Meathook

Has anyone ever seen a single episode of the new Hawaii Five-0?

Dunstan

I watched an episode in the first season. It was.. fine. Standard issue CBS procedural, which is not my kind of thing, so I’ve never watched another. But I was a little too old for the original, so I don’t have strong feelings about whether it is tainting precious memories or whatever.

Brick Meathook

Too old? It the original premiered in 1968.

BugEyedBoo

I’m an old geezer and don’t remember much about Hawaii 5-0 except for that badass theme song.

Oops, meant to say too young. But I’m not used to saying that I’m too young for anything anymore…

ballsofsteelandfury

I’m at 152 points in one of my leagues and losing by 16…

Mr. Ayo

Bad kicker week?

ballsofsteelandfury

My opponent had Hurts, Waddle, Chubb, and Kupp.

This Darius Slay guy is a pretty good Viking receiver

Horatio Cornblower

Cousins suffering from that rare “green/white” color-blindness

Horatio Cornblower

This is the most I’ve ever watched Kirk Cousins and holy shit, he is terrible.

Mr. Ayo

SUDDEN CHANGE!

Mr. Ayo

I can’t believe how many times I’ve been hit with this so early in the season.

Mr. Ayo

Who the fuck paid Cousins off?

He’s clearly throwing this game. /phrasing

It’s important to have strong hands.

BLEERGH’s been everywhere on the field tonight, but not there.

Who filled the entirety of the Vikings’ receiver corps’ gloves with those little cartoon springs?

Ineligible receiver penalty! Drink!

Gatoraids

Titans and Ravens could take some notes on this cover their best receiver plan of the Eagles

ballsofsteelandfury

THIS EAGLES-VIKINGS GAME, I CALL IT A WEST VIRGINIA FAMILY REUNION BECAUSE COUSINS SURE AS HELL SUCKING A LOT OF BALLS!

Horatio Cornblower
Sharkbait

Fucking miracle he can move.

Horatio Cornblower

Agreed.

Brick Meathook

What is the source of the incredibly lame style of “comedy” that is used in commercials? It seems so millennial, or it’s written by women or something.

herodotus450

All those participation laugh tracks down at the Chuckle Hut RUINED this country!!

WCS

It’s the end of Week 2, and the Jaguras are leading their division.

Recovery Whiskey

Kirk Cousins read that coverage about as well as Lea Michele reads Dr. Seuss. You can kind of see where things are going, but it just ends up a huge mess.
