And there’s your host, Aaron Rodgers. After the game he’ll be screening one of his favorite scary movies, The Cabinet of Dr. Fauci! Let’s keep this moving…

Minutiae:

-There’s lots of trade rumors flying as is the way with the social media environs we wallow in now. So what’s with Diontae Johnson though? He’s sorta headed to the Bucs but he was recently traded away from the Steelers. Victim of circumstance or low-key malcontent?

-Green Bay’s Love looks like a game-timer this week-would you take the risk and throw him out there or lean on Willis again, who aquitted himself quite well in his stead?

-Richardson was benched and the team captains found out through Shefter. Does this sound like a circumstance whereby a profusely sweating, pill-engorged fella burst through the doors of the team’s facility, stumbled into the coach’s office and let his opinion be known?

To The Game!

Texans/Jets:

-Another prime time game, another Jets game. Look, I get it-New York and the surrounding area bring in precious eyeballs and the Giants suck garbage from an industrial-sized hose. But this is too much.

-With Diggs gone (for good?) which Texan wr is going to step up? There’s some talent among John Metchie, Xavier Hutchinson-but maybe Robert Woods gets the first bite? Me? I need Tankie to set the world on fire tonight and I think he might. Why?

-Here’s a nice segue-The Sauce doesn’t seem to be the guy he was in his rookie year. He has a 23.3% missed tackle rate which is more than double last year’s and his coverage grade of 69.2 places him 46th in PFF’s standings.

-Since The Savior Davante came on board he’s caught less than 50% of his targets. That ain’t no good.

It’s all yours now.
