Your Week Seven (already?) Early Slate of NFL Games Open Thread

I was going to write ‘early afternoon’ slate of games but west coasters tend to get cranky if they read that before having their first cup of meth in the morning. Tee-hee.

To The Games!

Falcons/Bengals:

Life at .500 can mean different things to different teams. Cincy didn’t expect this at all and Atlanta fans (there are some you know) are mildly surprised to be at 3-3. The Falcons run game continues apace without Patterson-Huntley, Allgeier and Mariota racked up 160 yards vs the Niners.

Lions/Cowboys:

Dak is healthy immediately after Cooper Rush was exposed by the Eagles. Imagine that. Of all the one win teams in the NFL, the Lions have the most energy.

Colts/Titans:

Tennessee has righted the yacht after starting out 0-2. Is it a bit weird that these guys just played 3 weeks ago? Anyway, the Titans are looking for their second straight season sweep.

Packers/Commies:

Taylor Heinicke and Scary Terry will need a bit of luck against the league’s best passing D. Qaron is playing at a Heinicke-like level these days, his o-line doing him no favors. Perhaps he could have Tom come over and yell at them-it would be a nice change from the usual simmering disdain.

Bucs/Panthers:

The suddenly McCafferty-less Carolina must make do with Hubbard and Foreman. Tampa was once fearsome vs the run but they are now in the middle of the pack at 14th.

Giants/Jags:

This is bizarre-Jacksonville hasn’t beaten an NFC team since 2018, that’s 18 straight losses. The bad news is that the Giants were their last victory. Saquon is on a nice roll but the Jags rank 3rd against the run.

Browns/Ravens:

The AFC North is muddled with 3-3 Baltimore leading the division at 3-3. DeSean Jackson was just signed, his designation being, “an injury to be named later”.

Have at it.

I love that networks use injured players flailing around on the field as an opportunity to shoehorn in extra ads.

THAT’S GOOD CAPITALISM!

[slaps CBS on the ass, hard]

Not just that. They went to commercial for the Old Man on the Chain Gang Guy.

Also, they interviewed the guy. He was on the Chain Gang since the Bengals started in ’68 at Nippert Stadium and he was emphatic he was not going to be sent of this field.

Spur

Goff goofs up

So apparently the new thing is for losers to deepfake the faces of women they know onto porn stars and post the video online. It seems to me that a better use of that technology would be to deepfake your *own* face onto one of the guys and tell everyone you just got paid to bang Asa Akira.

TV Commentator: “Bengals fans give a sigh of relief that Trey Hendrickson is gonna be okay.”

This is why I listen to radio with the TV on mute and just deal with the delay.

RTD: All right! They ruled it down at the one. Now’s the chance for my RB1 Jamaal Williams to pick up a touchdown!

JAMAAL WILLIAMS: [fumbles]

Gumbygirl

That looked like a fucking touchdown, and now they fumbled. Fucking Liouns!

Spur

Lions really messed that up. No challenge on the possible TD and next play a fumble

King Hippo

Could get some epic bitch fits out of Q-aaron and MRSA Dreamboat today

Did I just see T.J. Hockenson playing on defense?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Never mind, Hutchinson.

blaxabbath

Got no games on. What is going on with the Bucs?

Gumbygirl

Losing 7-0, last I saw.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

More like Suck-a-neers, from the sound of it.

I’m pissed off because they turned up their nose at a field goal attempt and didn’t convert (I have Succop on fantasy).

Redshirt

Chase is gimpy. Redshirt is saddy.

blaxabbath

Bruce and Lance and Julian! Those used to be the strongest names we had!

blaxabbath

This seems to be that period. I’m sort of checking in here and there.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Julian was never a strong name. Sexy, sure. But strong? Nope.

Jerruh is one more Jack Daniels from making a phone call to the sideline telling to put Cooper in.

ZZZZZZZZZZZAAAAPPPPP episode is on.

I was wearing a hawaain shirt just a few days ago myself!

Better start acting like a big fat party animal or people are gonna get the wrong idea.

Baton Rouge Joe has 344 yds at the half. Wow.

King Hippo

and with the scoreline, might keep slinging it, at least for Q3

Redshirt

Wow

Hawaii down!

Dallas game is putting me to sleep

King Hippo

Smart Ratbirds timeout, keeps #ThePauls from trying long FG or Hail Mary to end the half.

#WhitePplProblems! I want to lay down to watch the remainder of this early window, but afraid I will fall asleep and miss sommet good (and/or the Brett Rypien Experience)

Maybe his new non Blackberry phone has one of them alarm things.

My first cell phone was a Nokia brick. I dropped it in the washing machine, and after that, I couldn’t use the 4 button. I still kept it for at least a year after that!

While I was in Dallas last week, something was mentioned about the Cowboys stadium and why it is in Arlington: The city vowed (either publicly or to Jerry) to never bring any public transit to the city and especially the stadiums.

There are no shuttle busses for park and rides, there are no bus lines going to the stadiums. You MUST pay for parking to go to a Cowboys or Rangers game (both Rangers stadiums are there too).

I mean fuck, I could go to the Seahawks game next Sunday, by getting on a train at 8am from Portland. The train station is directly in front of the stadium. I could come home THE SAME DAY on a late evening train. No need for driving, I can drink beer on the 3 train. When I lived there, my bus line picked me up 2 blocks from my place and dropped me off 2 blocks from the stadium.

Fuck, I hate the suburbs and our car dominated suburban culture.

King Hippo

All about keeping THOSE PPL away from our lily white suburban malls

Somehow my kid got in to watching The Simpsons.

We’re enjoying the Poochie episode on this beautiful NFL morning.

Think of all the “X died on his way back to his home planet” jokes you made, now he’ll retroactively GET!

Pitts scoring (bench) would make me feel extra STOOPID so will be overturned.

IS ALL COMING UP SCOTCHNAUT EH?

Every time Brady gets sacked, it warms the cockles of my black, hate filled, heart.

always disappoints when he gets back up, though

It’s days like this that I ask myself why I am spending valuable moments of my life watching the NFL when I could just as easily be watching pornography.

“Tua Meets the Line” is a kind of fetish porn…

ThePirateSloth

I mean, if you close your eyes, you could listen to porn:
“Look how hard he is hitting that hole”
“Split that gap young man!”
“Pound it! POUND IT!”
“Look how deep that hole is!”

The Church Lady was certainly troubled by the similarities:

This game is getting better and better!

What y’all neeeeeed is a good defense…

King Hippo

It’s a good thing for MRSA that Black Panthers are in full tank mode. They really do need Bryce Young, though.

King Hippo

The keys to happiness:

(1) Don’t check fantasy scores while watching RedZone
(2) DO be too pill-addled to remember which players you are fading

There are 26 NFL games on between now and when the Bills play again. Devin Singletary wears 26. Singletary sounds like Tackleberry. In Police Academy, Tackleberry was played by David Graf. David Graf appeared in season 3 episode 16 of the original Quantum Leap. Josh Allen leaps players. I have no idea where I’m going with this.Go Bills and Fuck the pats.

Margerie Taylor Green gets where you’re going with this…
