Your Sunday Morning Football Open Thread

Hey there’s a wee bit of Premier League football action before the NFL type revs up so join in,Ā if you dare.

To The Games!

Saints/Cowboys:

Zeke and Rico split the backfield carries last week, settling nothing whatsoever. In a dearthly scoring week Derek Carr of all qb’s led the league in most end zone throws with four. Rashid Shaheed reminds me a bit of Tyreek in how he’s starting his career-of the burner’s 10 TD’s so far, five of them have come from more than 50 yards out.

Bucs/Lions:

Buoyed by last week’s stats Baker continues to impress. In his last seven games he has 18 TD’s and just 4 INT’s. Let’s see how he fares vs the Detroit pass rush though. Cool your fantasy jets on rook Bucky Irving-he acquitted himself well but that was on just 20 snaps.

Colts/Packers:

Love is questionable and the Packers brain trust would be deemed so as well if they threw that asset on to the field today. So we have Malik Willis behind center-he’s started all of three games and didn’t pass for even 100 yards in any of them. His peer on the other side of the ball is Richardson who is entertaining in a “NO, NO, NO…YES!” kind of way.

Jets/Titans:

Rodgers has now gone 7 games without having a multiple TD game and is currently 23 games into not having thrown for 300 yards. The end is near and he did it his way, which was the wrong way. Speaking of lousy qb-ing, Will Levis gifted his opponent a pick-six and his team with a paltry four yards per pass attempt.

Niners/Vikes:

The Magical Disappearing Man McCaffrey is headed to IR. Oof! Do you think Baby Shanny regrets giving him a million billion touches last year? Ah, who’s kidding, as long as Mason can deliver on the cheap San Fran’s offense will roll along. Darnold was perfectly cromulent last week, making fans think that maybe the ghost sightings won’t start for a few more weeks at least.

Seahawks/Pats:

I can’t get a handle on either of these teams just yet but good on both for getting the W last week. We know that Rhamondre will get some work and Seattle’s 31st-ranked run D gave up only 99 yards on the ground so there’s something to track I guess.

Giants/Commies:

A multi-week stay in the basement of the NFC East awaits the loser of this tilt. Thing is, both Dimes and Kayvon have a history of playing well against Washington. Red Zone would be wise to steer clear of this travesty.

Chargers/Panteros:

Fantasy folks that were down on Herbert going into the season were rewarded with a 144 yard effort last week. Look for that number to go up because Carolina (and their qb) didn’t appear to make any progress at all in the offseason.

Browns/Jax:

Despite 10 attempts Watson didn’t complete a single pass of 15+ air yards last week. Something must have been on his mind. He’s yet to throw for 300 yards as a Brown. Tank Bigsby was a huge disappointment last year but made an impression with 73 yards on 12 carries. Perhaps he’s got things figured out, which is nice to see from a 2nd-year player.

Raiders/Ravens:

The reigning NFL MVP got off to the hottest of starts last week, running for the most yards (qb) in an opening game ever. Will he hold up running that often at his new reduced weight? [shakes Ozempic stick] “Signs Point To No”.

Have at it.

getting an old ass packer qb SURELY the strategy cannot fuck up twice!

going to blame the new Vax booster ruining his vibes

King Hippo

This is my first time hearing Brady announce. Bad? Yes. Collinsworth bad? No. He’s basically Joe Buck with a worse voice.

12-12 draw, how perfect would that be?

Okay, who replaced the Jaguars Offensive Line with a void of nothingness?

King Hippo

Like they can see into my very soul.

Ded Brownie. Cancel the confetti, it not Cosby.

I, too, am getting fucked by Kamara, and I thought I was in the freezer vodka league. What’s the new one? Lowratio league? Either way I’m right there with you

First Cook and now Kamara

Watching JD Vance being politely rejected videos — and his easy response to every one — always reminds me of Tobias standing before his empty mantle of accolades like, “In this business of show, you have to have the heart of an angel and the hide of an ele-phant.”

I may actually win my game due to the namesake.

ArmedandHammered

Never mind.

Two timeouts in three plays to avoid Delay of Game Penalties? Jacksonville is in peak mid-season form.

Saints are running all over the Dallas Defense Ass

Dead Washington Rookie QB?

litre_cola

Not quite ded yet.

blaxabbath

Turf Monster?

Horatio Cornblower

Just noticed I’m playing my Lowratio game without a TE because Evan Engram tweaked his hamstring during warm-ups.

Also projected to lose by roughly 30 points, so I’m not sure ol’ Evan was gonna be the difference maker here.

litre_cola

See ya next year. Hippo is over 80% to beat me. I am dreck.

Horatio Cornblower

No, see I’m surely being promoted: Yahoo gave me an A- on my draft!

ArmedandHammered

Hold my bong!

King Hippo

Prison Girlfriend got MOVES

Spur

indeed.

Gumbygirl

She needs to start throwing to Thomas, or she’s going to drop the soap toot sweet!

Finally some life from the Dallas Offense. Nice running by CeeDee

The kicker can be offsides on a kick?!

Redshirt

Never mind. It makes sense.

They renamed the stadium after Trevor Lawrence? Oh, great. Now I gotta root FOR the rapist!

yeah right

Jaysus, Mary and Joseph we must have walked 10 fucking miles today.

Had one of the best food experiences of my life and now we’re off to The Cobblestone for an evening of live Irish traditional music.

Word is that by the end of the evening they have up to 12 players on stage.

I’m fresh out of superlatives.

Magical fucking city this.

PS-Darnold and the Saints are kikcking ass. Great time to be a Right.

yeah right

Very fucking good.

I just spent the morning listening to my family have a ā€œdiscussionā€ about Petgate in Springfield. Redshirt no happy. Redshirt no sane.

Did any of them watch JD’s interview this morning, admitting to making up stories? Also known as lying.

I get Jags/SVU? Iā€™m probably going to watch my team get destroyed by the Swifties; will I have suffered enough?

King Hippo

How did the Saints get good?

Don T

Some of us knew šŸ˜šŸ«

Horatio Cornblower

Well, Dallas was on their schedule…

Spur

Voodoo strong

Horatio Cornblower

Just took apart a window AC to clean it. It is currently drying, in different pieces, out in the Sun.

Odds that it will be put back together correctly are currently set at 400-1.

ArmedandHammered

You did not film yourself taking it apart. I do that on my phone and then play it backwards slowly to get the parts back in to place.

Horatio Cornblower

I did not, but I’ve got two more to go so I will incorporate this genius idea.

Spur

Gee its almost like Rodgers is washed up, the Salah is a horrible Coach and the Jets are the Jets.

King Hippo

DonT’s Tits perking back up?

Don T

Defense is nasty. According to gamecast anyway. Streaming laptop went BSOD on me šŸ¤¬
