Welcome back! That was a glorious couple of footy games yesterday, wasn’t it? Let’s try the other kind on for size.
To The Games!
Jets/Bills:
Allen played like garbage the last time these two met as New York’s zone defense befuddled him quite a bit. Against zone looks he was 11-23 with no TD’s and 2 interceptions. For all the hoopla surrounding that Jets D, they’ve not yet generated a score.
Browns/Bengals:
During their ascendance Cincy has taken care of the Steelers and Ravens but continue to have problems with Cleveland, having lost 5 straight to them. If they get over the hump today their chances of making the playoffs rise to 93%. The biggest beneficiary of Watson’s return? Amari’s target rate jumped to 43%.
Texans/Cowboys:
It’s not the kind Andy likes at Xmas time but it is a large spread-17.5 to be exact. Since Dak got back Dallas’ margin of victory has been 19 points. Does anyone dare call this impending travesty the “Battle” of Texas?
Vikes/Lions:
Please-no talk of a Hockenson revenge game-everything worked out for everyone. It’s just not a thing. The o/u is 51.5 and the last time these fellas played they were beyond that number before the beginning of the 4th. Goff is an ‘inside’ type of guy-in domes he averages 19 fantasy points, outside that total drops to 9.
Ravens/Steelers:
Huntley will likely be in for Lamar and the former ran for 72 against Pitt last year. Pickett hasn’t set the world on fire but he also hasn’t turned the ball over in four consecutive tilts. That could change though because Baltimore has generated a turnover in four straight games.
Eagles/Giants:
Warning: This might get ugly. Philly is (literally) running on all cylinders and the Giants are 26th against the rush. They’re also 2-4-1 vs teams that have a record above .500. Maybe they’ll get lucky and Philly will be looking ahead to next week’s battle against (checks the schedule) uh, Chicago?
Jags/Titans:
The King is slumping at the wrong time and so therefore the Titans are as well, having lost 3 of their last 5. This should be the old ‘get right’ game because Henry has scored 12 TD’s in his last six games vs the Jags.
That’s it-now it’s you.
Apparently Mike White is coming back after his 2nd KO

Mike White sure is one tough SOB. I also want to party with the Jets medical staff
Fun drugs WITHOUT puncturing a (additional) lung!
Good to see the dolphins medical staff consulting for the Jets
Ha, Fox forgot they switched from the Iggles game for a second!
Having my fantasy opponent hang sixty points on me via a pair of players from the FUCKING JAGUARS is birthday magic.
That’s right, it’s your birthday!!!
Oh Dallas, if you blow this I will send a three hours-long loop to Horatio of me laughing over and over and over.
Why only 3 hours? If it’s a loop it can be INFINITE!
I kinda like the guy.
He is about as good as they come for Cow fans
Awwwww, you guys.

Everyday is salty and crunchy
How is this game so full of weirdness, and yet so dull?
Too much buggery AGAIN
Engram. Over 100, 2 scores. I had to play him each league. Of course am getting fuckshit from anyone else and will lose each
Wow, I really am sick! I just woke up, can’t remember the last time I slept past noon.
Good morningish!
You’re my favorite narcoleptic.
Do NOT go towards the light, you are the clubhouse favoUrite, ask anyone.
PLUS WE HAVE ROOLZ ABOUT THAT NOW

Mike White down again
Tricky Bengals!

I do enjoy watching Zeke fail
Coach Epps is going to personally throw Truthbisket off the Fort Pitt Bridge.

You zhould record yourzelf explaining fantazee football zcoring to thoze old ladiez.
Oh yes, and the nuances about PPR and such.
Here’s my stupid parlay:
Min-Det Over 51.5 in danger
NYJ +9.5 Still looks good
CIN -5.5 Looks good
Cowboys Win Concerned
Panthers +3.5 lets see
It is the Vikes game that worries my 3 gamer…
Time to go to the gym and sweat this hangover out. Hopefully the Cowboys will do the same.
Life tip kids; do not end the night with “just one more” when that one more is 13.3%. Really should have checked the can before opening it.
At least it was actually just ONE more though, could be worse
Sheesh. That’s the same alcohol percentage of the soju we had last night.
I need a GIF of the Cleveland Browns’ kicker’s whining because the team passed on a 68-yard field goal attempt.
Missed it, please send
Just saw it. Hahaha
Put me in coach
Browns nawt able to tackle on a goal line stand. Hahaha

“Potent Lions offense” is a phrase I’m still getting accustomed to.
My father, the new soccer fan, just asked why he couldn’t find the Argentina World Cup game.
Me: “Well, to start the game’s Wednesday.”
Freaking rookies
I remember the 2018 World Cup (or was it the Euro’s?) and I had my finger up my nose and was saying, “Kevin The Broom kicks the ball really good!” Hey, everybody’s gotta start somewhere.

Me too, so interesting. Plus they enter a portal! Is it to another dimension???
They enter one side and exit the other side with 2 duffle bags full of money.

He seems to be the foremost dude who is gaming this new system and he’s doing very well.
It only works if he can coach and develop. Until then, all he is is PT Barnum with a headset.
Jackson State’s record from 2014-20 was 21-40. Deion’s record there was 27-5. Results matter and the rules have changed. No one is adapting as quickly as he has.
Bills and Jets so many passes with no points I feel like Im watching the US soccer team again.
But that touchdown was incredible.
Tee Higgins (finger): OUT
Tyler Boyd (hamstring): OUT
Remote (thrown at wall): OUT
Liquor (comfort liquid): OUT
Have a plate in my mouth for me 2 bottom teeth (see Canada hockey) and it fell out last night. Told the resto and no worky for me tonight! Huzzah! a day of DFO for me! Where is the wine!!!
“How much money did you get for your teeth?” Decilitre
Just wait till he reads Le Mis and learns he can also sell his hair!
Tell him just wait until you have to pay the tooth fairy 3k for an implant. Circle of life chit right there Buddy.
*Passes a bottle*
Salud!
Even the Philly punter is getting in on the offensive action
DAK DAK DAK DAK!!!!
Flacco almost successfully pulled off the Jameis Winson special.
Oh wait is White back in?
Yes, now that Elon has taken over Twitter.
FLACCO WILL NOT REPLACE US!! FLACCO WILL NOT REPLACE US!!
And Dallas turns it over. Yep, keeping Houston alive in this game wont hurt Dallas at all.
Coach Saleh: “Wilson!”
Zach Wilson: (runs up with helmet on): “Yes, coach?”
Coach Saleh: “Go get Joe his helmet!”
EDIT: Corrected because I’m an idiot.
Will the Jets become ELITE??
Apologies to yeahright, but I am pro-Detroit today
Will the Jets go Flacco? Yep.
then nope.
Mike White gonna need a little vacation to the White Lotus after that one.
DeSean Jackson, NOT ded???
Lovie Smith is an active head coach in the NFL?
(ish)
His beard is awesome, though!
Second Lunch!
Toasted ham and cheese sandwich, earl gray tea, more champagne!
How about Nuremberg instead?
