Your Unsunny Sunday NFL Football Open Thread

It might be nice elseplaces but it’s Hot Chocolate Day here, you sexy thing. That’s just the thing to warm the cockles of my ham hocks. There are six teams (Bills, Giants, Ravens, Vikes, Bears and Raiders) on bye this week so check your turgid fantasy teams!

To The Games!

Colts/Titans:

Indy’s unlikely march to the playoffs might encounter a speed bump in the form of a certain King Henry. The Colts run D has allowed opposing rb’s the 7th-most fantasy points this season and things have gotten worse since run-stopping nose tackle Stewart was nabbed for taking PED’s. Fill-in Zack Moss is no slouch on the other side, leading the league in rush yards over expectation.

Chargers/Pats:

Keenan Allen looked dicey all week but is expected to go and that’s good because he seems to be all of the Chargers offense. Can you think of any other rb or wr that has had a career year at the age of 31? Meanwhile, the world’s saddest whirlygig continues to rotate at the Pats qb position.

Falcons/Jets:

Tim Boyle has a job. His QBR in college was 15.8. His pro career number is 27.7. Last week he posted a 4.6. If any team were to get Flacco on board it should have been the what the hell are you guys thinking Jets. Speaking of crap, Ridder is on board and expect Sauce to get his very first INT of the year.

Lions/Saints:

Some wr on New Orleans is going to have a great day today vs Detroit’s flailing D. Over the last three weeks they’ve not been able to generate any pressure and starting cb Jacobs has been torched for 205 yards and three TDs. But who will that wr be?-Olave is banged up, rook A.T. Perry is an unknown quantity and there are the has-beens Bowden and Kirkwood.

Cards/Steelers:

Watt The Younger will have trouble extending his sack streak to five games against the wily coyote, er, Kyler. Pitt will likely pile up the yards against Arizona’s flimsy D but will it translate into points this time around?

Fins/Commies:

The only wr to reach 100 yards vs the Cowboys is, Curtis Samuel? Maybe that’s the streamer you’re looking for with so many teams on bye. Achane is back but it doesn’t sound like he’s 100%. He and other skill guys should have a field day because, as everyone suspected, the Commies D has become suspect since the fire sale of Young and Sweat. They’ve given up 29, 31, (to the Giants!) and 45 points since that genius maneuver.

Broncos/Texans:

At 6-5 and occupying the 8th and 9th playoff spots in the race, there’s a fair amount riding on this tilt. Denver has been forcing qb’s into rushed decisions during their win streak but rook Stroud is a different kind of cat. He had some INT woes two weeks ago but got immediately back on track. He’s had a QB rating of 80+ in all games except for his very first. I’ll be watching Houston’s left guard Juice Scruggs. Why? Because his name is Juice Scruggs, damnit!

Enjoy.

Detroit just wrecked Carr as a tribute to Cronenberg’s Crash

WCS

Get comfortable in Yinzburgh. This is going to be a minute.

Yinz can probably run to the dispensary if a refill is needed, . Not that this has been worth waiting around for, anyway. Tomlin Voodoo will inevitably happen after this prolonged delay.

I have plenty of weed, but I don’t have that game. Probably a good thing, it would harsh my buzz.

Update for senor: I’m good on both accounts, so do you need any more invites?

Jahvid Best is alive. How much of his brain? YOU DECIDE.

Getting drafted by Jim Schwartz couldn’t have helped.

Fun fact, he ran in track and field for the 2016 Olympics due to having Trinidadian citizenship. First nfl player to perform in the Olympics AFTER their playing career

This Patriots-Chargers game is setting football back decades.

Dropped passes, ridiculous. And the LioUns are trying to blow it, so that game isn’t worth watching anymore either. I may go take a bath.

Afternoon, all. Finally got back from a funeral (my old HS principal) to get the shit off and into the cozies… only to find that the Pats are reaching new levels of deceased that physics previously suggested were impossible to attain.

Enjoy the suck.

Senor Weaselo

Weird, normally that’s something you’d expect at the funeral.

Get rid of those hard pants!

This is the first minutes of football I’m getting to enjoy alone this season and I am being treated to Mitch Trubisky.

This is awesome. The world is a joke.

The AFC North QBs is now: LAMAR!, Flacco, Trubisky and Browning.

You can either fight the chaos or enjoy it.

A bunch of good athletes all in the same line of work get hurt, and suddenly, everyone loses their minds!

A.T. Perry has 3.8 for me at the half, which is 3.8 MOAR than I expected to get.

I am against a guy starting THREE inactives and Joshua Kelley. Barely on track to win.
