“It’s 4 O’Clock Somewhere” Your Late Slate Open Thread

Shall we do it again?

To The Games!

Giants/Cards:

The Giants fan with his glass half-full (having had to wash down all that heaping helping of humble pie last week) could convince himself that Arizona constitutes the perfect bounce-back opportunity. Everyone will be watching the o-line due to it’s outright shitty performance and the fact that Thomas, the best guy on the line has a hammy issue. Dimes faced pressure on 67% of his pass attempts. Good God. Dobbs fumbled three times last week, so you may not see a qb duel here.

Niners/Rams:

No Jalen Ramsey should mean that Aiyuk should duplicate last week’s numbers and Deebo should get some as well. The dew sure is off the rose (or whatever they say) for Fatt Stafford. Faced with declining play and whispers of some chronic injury concerns, he threw all of zero TD’s last week. Can Puka and Tutu combine again for 200+ yards? My Magic 8 Ball says, “200! 200? Are you kidding me? 200?”.

Jets/Cowboys:

Battle of the Undefeateds! Does anyone believe the Schefter garbage about Rodgers being back this year? Some good news for the Dallas pass rush-Zach’s release time last week was the league’s slowest at 3.29 seconds. Speaking of slow, do you think that he’ll ever figure out that he’s not a difference-maker at this level, that he’s a mere game manager? Anyway, I expect that next week when previewing the Cowboys game I’ll bring up some stat about them having the most sacks after two games since 1985 or some shit.

Commies/Broncos:

Well guess what, Coach Payton didn’t turn around Denver’s moribund offense in one fell swoop. After last week the O has scored 16 or less in 12 of its last 18 outings. Kudos to Sam Howell doing just enough last week to secure a victory. He’s an adequate streaming option and his wily wheels will stand him in good stead as the season progresses. Denver gets the 3.5 homefield spread but the bad news is they are 1-7 as a favorite dating back to last year.

Type away.
