Hey guys, it’s time to do that thing again and we have a full complement of tilts to do it with. Why does not a single team have a bye at the halfway point of the season? I’ve not a clue.
To The Games!
Pats/Fins:
Hopefully this gets ugly early which would mean New England has to fight from behind which they are ill-equipped to do. One way for Miami to get ahead is to continue to employ screen passes-they’re very effective doing so and guess what, the Pats are the very worst in the league at defending that play. Though the latter is good at playing the run, can they stop a bulldozing Fins squadoo that churns the yards out at 163 on average and 6.3 per?
Jets/Giants:
Dueling dumpster fires it is! (though both are coming off wins) Don’t be surprised if The Mother Lover has another good game because he excels vs man coverage and the Giants swing that way more than only five other teams. Also in the Jets favor is that they get both starting corners back from injury-so take your finger off that Wan’Dale Robinson ‘start’ button. You should play Waller though because the Jets can’t defend the tight end and Darren has cobbled together two good games.
Jags/Steelers:
From the Hard To Believe file: Cal Ridley hasn’t caught a pass over the middle of the field yet this year. Jacksonville has given up nearly 2,000 yards thru the air after seven games-luckily for them, Pickett would be the very last pick were you to be playing flag football in your back yard. Etienne should have a day vs Pitt’s 28th-ranked run D.
Falcons/Titans:
Gah! Both these coaches are stuck in the 80’s and are ranked 25th and 29th in scoring per game so expect this to be the horse-racing equivalent of a ‘mudder’. Expect to see cowardly punts on 4th and short and three yard passes on 3rd and 5. That’s just what Smith and Vrabel do these days. Hopefully the pre-game watercress sandies don’t trigger a Bijan tummy ache or migraine.
Texans/Panthers:
Houston is .500 somehow (maybe it was that ambush of Pitt?) and the passing game is on point. Their Expected Points Added while throwing is .14 but while running it craters to -.12. Stroud has been increasingly sending balls Schultz’s way, including looks in the endzone in three straight affairs. Stream Time!
Rams/Cowboys:
Dallas has a 10-game home winning streak and the Rams are somehow 2-1 on the road with a 3 point loss at Cincy as well. They continue to be a hard out because Puka and Cooper dominate the middle of the field-you can’t stop both of those chain-movers so take your pick. There’s quite a bit to mock McCarthy about but his 11-5 post-bye record is not one of them.
Vikes/Packers:
Oof! Minny has yet to score a rushing TD. Their game hope? (not plan, hope) It’s to score early and often and Green Bay just might capitulate, given that they’ve been outscored 63-6 in the 1st half of their last four games. Rb Jones is out so Dillon gets another chance to prove that he’s not a washed up washerwoman.
Saints/Colts:
Minshew Mania giveth and taketh away-the O has produced a more than respectable 58 points (acceptable) and 8 turnovers. (not) That latter stat needs some serious correcting but can they alter that vs a Saints D that has generated 12 takeaways so far? Will mouthy emo qb Carr call out his wr’s on the field again? No wonder the passing game is suffering. Carr has had back-to-back 50 attempt games. How has that gone? Every qb that has thrown 50+ balls this season (nine of them) has lost.
Eagles/Commies:
Beware the big play-Philly has 29 20+ yard plays and Washington has given up 34 so far. (AJ Browns ears are ringing right now) Will Howell survive the season? He’s been put on the ground 40 times already and as we’ve learned by seeing Dimes get crushed over and over again, the law of averages is going to catch up to him. And if it doesn’t he’ll have been sacked 100+ times by season’s end. AJ has five straight games with 125+ yards-if he gets another he gets the record.

Tyrod ded after catching his own pass. Top points for creativity.
Danny DeVito is now in at QB?
I would like to offer him an egg during this trying time.

Let’s be fair. Internet Mom spent all the money for heroin. For her only!

Epic text battle with my little sister, re: The Martyr.
I used the word “bullshit” multiple times; told her she made this choice; called her immature and illogical.
Probably won’t speak for about a week.
You probably could have gotten a solid two weeks if you’d said she was being “hysterical”.
Imagine what he’d get if he asked her if she was “on the rag!”
One of her texts was, “I”m done with talking to you. I’m done.”
My response was: “You promise?”

Oft-injured Waller is injured? No!

Fair catch at the six. My, what a punting tour de force.
Do you know that sailors wore gold earrings so if they died in a foreign land, the value of the earrings would pay for a casket.

Better punt and coverage for ATL 🫤 respek
Picked my son up at the train station, which was the location of a pro Israel rally. Was very moving and emotional – and super positive.
And I’ve always been so impressed by rabbis – not sure what it is, but they carry themselves with a mixture of friendliness and authority.

Send me a meatball through the NumLock / 7 crease 😛
If only I could, her meatballs are on point.
HOWEVER
She bakes her meatballs, instead of frying them. Sacrilege.
And yes, when we were first married we had a legit argument about this.
BECAUSE YOU FRY THE MEATBALLS MRS. FOZZ!
Agree with you. A really good oven is rare. A good fry always 😙👌🏼
i’ve had two bowls, and you should all be jealous, cause it is amazing

HIGH END TALENT
STILLERS GAHNTA SUPERB OWL
It’s 2023 and I still can not understand how the NFL determines what areas get what games for national broadcasts. Why am I seeing the Jags/Steelers game in the PNW on CBS? Is there this idea that Seahawks fans are gonna hatewatch the Steelers? Do studies show that a shit ton of Jags fans live in Idaho? Is there that ONE player that went to whichever Oregon/Washington college and was super well known locally now playing on either Jags/Steelers?
I just don’t get it.
It makes people buy Sunday Ticket to watch home teams and gives the NFL more revenue.
So, we’re doing this kind of game again. Apologies, Lemonjello.

Oh, and Minkah’s hammy went bye-bye.
Is it wrong to want TJ Watt to suffer something similar?
A sledgehammer to the nuts would not even begin to satisfy me. Yes he’s a great player, he’s also an insufferable douchebag.
I’d be John Hammond talking about Dr. Ian Malcolm if Watt played for any other team.
Ah, last night was fun. A gummie, beer, a few bourbons, a dim recollection of dinner. Why can’t every day be like this?
Levis to Hopkins. Praise Gamblor.
Heh heh. Nice 4th down Vrabel jinx, scotchie.

Cristo Dios. That is both marriage and reversing the vasectomy material.
As a Christian, I’m forbidden from worshipping anything before my God. But per my interpretation, there’s nothing in the Bible about worshipping anything as long as it doesn’t conflict with the 1st Commandment.
God gave her those titties. You should thank him.
And by worshipping them, you’re really worshipping him, so….

More gooder English.
Pick two from
DJ Moore
Chris Olave
Jahmyr Gibbs
Christian Kirk
I’m not a fan of Moore but the Chargers give up the most fantasy points to wr’s. The only problem? Is Bagent up to it?
I think you have to play DJM, just because he might go off. They;ve been hesitant to give Gibbs much of a load (PHRASING), and I just don’t like Kirk as a player.
But will Emo Carr yell* at Olave?
*the lyrics of Bring on the Dancing Horses
ppl forget that song was about the timing of breaking off a curl route smh
Doing my homework for these games, the Chargers played press coverage vs the Fins and almost got the upset win and have since played off wr’s for some reason so maybe DJ is the play.
plus he supports the Bearistocrats! so he likely hates himself enough to stay up and watch anyway
