Your Monday Night Football Open Thread

That was a freakton of football yesterday, no? Well, there’s one more to go and at least one of the teams is worthy of a look. But first…

Newsy Notes:

-Why? Part Infinity: Three UVA football players are dead because. Just because.

-Shittiest Carousel Ever: Qb Walker of the Panthers is injured so now it’s back to Mayfield. This is peak ‘quarterback hell’.

-The Colts get the “New Coach Bump” and a win to boot. Several sites I came across were calling each other out because the Massive Consensus was that it was a bad hire. To that I say, “What could Saturday possibly have done in 5-6 days to make a material difference in the fortunes of the team?” I think it’s diddly squat, myself. Sure Taylor played and Ryan was re-installed but these are moves that anyone would have made. Ease up buckos.

-Kadarius Toney got his first TD a year and a half into his career. He had 6 touches that produced 90 yards as well. Nothing good was going to come of the situation in New York so I just hope the Giants get something out of the draft picks.

To The Game!

Commies/Eagles:

-If you look at the sked it’s likely Philly gets to 10-0 because they get the Colts next week. After that they’ll have a stretch were they’ll pick up their first loss. There’s the Packers and then the Titans, the Giants on the road, Bears on the road and then Cowboys in Dallas-three straight roadies in December is where it happens.

-The same questions that dogged Fields had also followed Hurts around (“He’s a running qb with accuracy issues”) and he’s responded with 18 TD’s (hands and feet) and a mere two interceptions.

-That ball protection stuff he’s doing is why the Eagles have a fantastic +15 turnover differential-the Vikes were in second place with 8 before the game yesterday.

-Can Washington generate any offense at all? Their last two games they’ve put up an average of 17.

-PFF recommends that you take the under on Heinicke’s 0.5 TD prop. That’s so cold. According to their criteria he generates a turnover-worthy play 8% of the time he drops back to pass.

-A Dim Hope?: The last time these folks met the Commies held Philly to 72(!) yards rushing.

Do your thing.

I went off to play tennis thinking Gibson was hurt and I’d win my fantasy game by 0.06. Turns out he gutted it out. Stupid healthy jerk.

TheRevanchist

Notice how they keep showing the replay in slow motion. This is where they are trying to claim that the Eagles were robbed. Anything for a headline.

Lost by under 1 pt due to no Terry catches after the 3rd, back to 5-5

Da comrade!

Find a way to get a sledge hammer in the next shot. Adds to the whole “worker” effect thing…

Horatio Cornblower

Too bad about the loss, but Jalen Hurts was looking sharp tonight!

He was hanging out with RG3, McNabb, and Vick before the game? He’s lucky he’s not in prison throwing up his own knee ligaments

Doktor Zymm

Hey, that game was good enough that I’m still awake after 8 pm!

Brocky

Oh God damn it why am I just NOW thinking of a “did the team switch jerseys joke?

If Philly wants to maintain their reputation, those refs are not getting out of that stadium without getting several things thrown at them.

Doktor Zymm

They gots 5 seconds, BANANACAKES UP THIS HERE PLAY

Doktor Zymm

Okay, that’s more like banana bread or something, although someone is gonna be pissed if that final TD fucked over their under bet

Horatio Cornblower

Where is Al Michaels when we need him?

(I mean that as a joke, of course: I know he’s in a bar)

Gumbygirl

He’s not anywhere near a vegetable, I’ll tell you that. Unless he hangs out with Berman, or Joe Namath.

Horatio Cornblower

I hope the Eagles win it now.

Horatio Cornblower

OK, that was also acceptable. Lateral that shit right into your own end zone.

If Smith were. Colombian soccer player his life expectancy would be measured in minutes after that.

TheRevanchist

I love how Heineken is trolling the Eagles on these kneel downs. Fucking hilarious.

If I’m #55, I’m earning the Personal Foul on the kneel down play.

Time to pop the champagne!

Okay, so NOW the league cares about players taking a knee?

Col. Duke LaCross

Holy shit, that play made the Cowboys look like a bunch of mensas.

Horatio Cornblower

Hey, whoa, let’s not say things we can’t take back.

BeefReeferLives

He said “mensas” not “menses”. Big difference.

ThePirateSloth

Oh. wow.
