Can this game possibly exceed the slug, er, slouchfest that we witnessed last night? (a hearty thank you to all that weighed in so that at least it was entertaining) Perhaps not-but first…
Newsy Notes:
-Despite stumbling and losing his sense of gravity, Tua has not entered the concussion protocol. Oh sure, he’s banged up elsewhere on his body but everything’s ok noggin-wise.
-The NFL, after consulting no one as they are want to do, have called off the long-running travesty that was the Pro Bowl. Going forward it will be replaced with [shuffles papers] “teaching moments”? And family-friendly stuff at fair prices no doubt.
-The Bills had a possession time of 40:40-the most any team has had in a loss since 2014. They ran 90 offensive plays vs the Fins 39.
To The Game!
Cowboys/Giants:
-Linewrecker Micah Parsons is listed as questionable but has indicated he will play. Good news for fantasy leagues that still utilize an IDP spot. (really?) This young gentleman has 17 sacks in 18 games and there’s more on the way this evening.
-The Dimes’ 6.3 intended air yards when throwing are the 6th lowest in the league behind three ballboys, a left-handed cheerleader and Gus, the Jags 73 year-old trainer.
-There’s method behind that incompetency though. The Giants o-line has allowed the most pressures and the 3rd-most sacks so far. It’s a work in progress just like the other five years, people
-This New York squadoo hasn’t seen 3-0 since 2009 and have lost 10 consecutive prime time games.
-Cooper will see plenty of jerseys because in lieu of talent Martindale is sending extra rushers at the 3rd highest rate so far. Kayvon Thibodeaux, the 5th overall pick, will be one of those guys. He’s finally ready to play.
-Take The Under: Dimes’ passing prop is 198.5-he hasn’t thrown for more than 190 so far this year.
This smells like an ugly game-be sure to wear some deodorant.
this game becoming…good?
I legit don’t know a single person who doesn’t prefer the manningcast
As annoying as they can be, at least they’re trying to provide actual insight. It never ceases to amaze me that networks pay former star players huge money to say things that I could hear from the guy next to me at the sports bar. “What a great throw by [insert star QB] That’s why he’s [the goat/one of the best in the National Football League].”
I wonder what their ratings are compared to Troy and Joe? Probably pisses them off big time.
I’m just gonna post this picture from Monday night raw out of context
I have faith that Triple H is going to be way better than Vince at Creative, but even I’m want this angle to end. Either fight or f***, I don’t care, just end it.
I ‘m finally off the clock, sort of, from babysitting my father in law and his lazy son, on my birthday, yay? I saw maybe two minutes of this game, did I miss anything good?
its the nfc east after dark.
no.
Happy Birthday, from your favorite DFOer!
I’m telling the others.
You are, and someone has a big mouth!
[searches memory]
[searches memory]
I’m sure something happened at some point. Probably.
Congrats on your latest lap around Sol.
Shaqon had a nice run. Thats about it
HAPPY DAMN BIRTHDAY DAMMIT!
Buy yourself something nice with your own money.
My FIL gave me a hundred bucks. I’ve spent two hundred on food so far, and we’re here until Thursday. I’m going home tomorrow with the dog to spend the night with my poor cat.
Oh and check this out, when I got home from the store today, after i bought dessert stuff, Gumby said” oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, SIL has a birthday cake for you in the garage fridge.” Gumbygirl is now Grumpygirl. I need to go upstairs after this game, have a few edibles, and take a bubble bath in their ginormous bathtub. And I am not doing the fucking dishes first.
Treat yourself today. Tomorrow you’re just another meatbag.
Also, eat ALL the dessert.
Chuck the dishes out the window and eat the cake in the bath!
Just our charming wit. Happy birthday!
Happy damn birthday to a damn lady! Go get high and relax!
Happy Birthday, To a Favorite DFOer From an Adequate DFOer.
You missed getting Happy Birthdays from us earlier! HAPPIEST OF DAYS OF BIRTH!
Jimmy Kimmel ruined halftime, which already sucks.
But happy b-day, GG!
raiders: historically, nobody gets flagged more than us
cowboys: we’re warming up
Oh my.
Let Russ Punt
The brutal truth right here
Live look at the Giants side line.
Ok, suboptimal, but apparently I care more about getting a totally unearned $17.50 when I just happily paid $20 for a cocktail than I do about this game result!
Yay touchdown
Hrm, good that they’re in FG range, bad that they aren’t burning more clock. Prop bets make me root for odd things, kinda digging it
Props are the most fun by far
Did New York score 10 points or is the Point Guy asleep on the keyboard?
Is it just me, or is Troy morphing into skinny Rex Ryan?
Well, show him your feet and let’s see.
Woohoo! Now for a dallas field goal. After all, cows live in fields
and Persons have goals!
And with that, I’m off like a prom dress. Later, Taters!
Somebody scored a major?
points! several! more than 3!!!
This is about as good as I’ve seen Dimebag play.
They have 6 points at home.
Offsetting? Yup, the refs just hate everyone here, lol
Cowboys are absolutely the dumbest team in the NFL.
Giants just said hold my beer
Special Needs Division is Special
You say this with the Raiders still in the NFL.
that flag was late and thrown 30 yards up into the air
This is wonderful
I saw it on social media, people were taking it seriously while I was laughing my ass off
Get a rope
That explains the laughter coming from the Film Rooms.
Lamb doesn’t seem all that interested in actually catching any of the passes thrown his way.
Diggs is determined to get a pick from Danny Dimes. Even if it costs them the game.
This is nice, ESPN. Keep showing highlights to past games. You don’t need to go back to the actual, live game. I’ll take Bengals losses. At least we’re entertaining when we lose.
THIS COWBOYS I CALL THEM LINDSEY GRAHAM BECAUSE THEY LOVE GETTING ALL THE SACKS
There’s no chance Daniel Jones survives this game as a functional human being.
This implies he’s a functional human being to begin with.
This is the proper reply.
I didn’t watch the halftime show, but based on your comments, I believe this is a close approximation.
Truth about the Talking Cat – Rick and Morty – YouTube
No matter what the result of this game somebody next week will be 3-1 after the Giants-Bears game.
while the game will be 3-2
2-1-1 wants a word.

I see watching preseason hockey was the right call tonight
Wait, this isn’t preseason MNF?
Based on tonight, The Ice Giants are ready to try and kill my liver come the month of May
Giants are 2-0? This is a weird start to this season.
Judge is definitely pressing for #61.
Why is Jimmy Kimmel on my TV?
Better than Fallon.
Damning with faint praise.
Bet still alive at the half! Meanwhile, I am enjoying dessert
In retrospect, I also should have bet all the unders
Sunday NighT FITBAW from…Wichita!!??
MAYBE!
WEIRD
INTERESTING
I’m thinking Tennessee.
Indianapolis, Detroit and Pittsburgh are at home, and no way they play in Chicago. Cincinnati may be more neutral location, but I doubt they’d get 65,000 of us to show up at full price and NFL would want a full house. Plus three days is a hell of a turnaround.
Fashion maven Suzy Kolber has outdone herself tonight. Fantastic.
Announcer: “Giants get the ball to start the 2nd half.”
Giants Fan: “Don’t threaten me.”
That’s just the cosmic push i need to not watch the second half.
last night: 11-10
nfc east: challenge accepted
Are we thinking a 6-5 final?
5-5
The Hague has declared this game a Crime Against Humanity and therefore, there will be no second half.
SHANKLOR
It’s my considered opinion that the refs hate both of these teams.
i would too having to do these nfc east games during primetime (when old refs go to bed at 8pm)
Pretty brave of Daboll to wear one of those “Fuck Dem New Yorkers” hats.
Based on the 10 seconds I watched and their faces, how many times has Peyton swore and how many times has Eli cried tonight?
Pey-Pey wants to give Elisha a swirlie in the worst way.
Toss a slant, kick a FG
NAOP
“Way ahead of you.”
Bill Parcells
that never gets old
diggs got asteroid’ed
Donks’ passing offense against That’s Rikki’s Raiders! secondary might just break the space/time continuum.
What happens when the Stoppable Force meets the Moveable Object?
Bad OPI call is bad.
I am sure the Mrs. Reacted Reasonably
Mrs. Sharkbait: ” well I think it was reasonable”
The Sharkbaits cat and/or dog were under the guest room bed, and not available FOAR comment.
BLEEEERGH will not stand for any offense today.
