Your Monday Night Football NFC East Showdown Open Thread

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.
