Your Sunday Night NFL Football Open Thread

Have you fully adjusted to the time change by now? I woke up at 5:30am EST this morning and while early, it’s not that big a deal-until I realized it was actually an hour earlier. Son of a bitch! Can I reclaim my time like politicians on committees? No? That’s not right.

To The Game!

Colts/Vikings:

-Minny’s D has improved tremendously but they still give up 263 yards through the air. This interests me because of the games that Flacco has started since 2023, he’s led all QB’s in passing yards and TD’s thrown.

-Salient Question: Will Richardson work on his fitness while on the sideline? He’ll have a bit of time on his hands now. (imagine the humiliation of a QB taking himself out of the game because he’s winded)

-Sam Darnold is quick on the trigger! (don’t tell his girlfriend) He’s had three games so far this year when he’s tossed two or more scores in the opening quarter. Those early leads have been a godsend for the Vikes.

-You missed him didn’t you? Hockey is back! Just what the Minny needs-another weapon. They look good going down the stretch.

-The Colts Taylor was out for a trio of games but returned last week and there was no leash-he was given 20 carries and responded with another 100+ yard game.

-I’d guess that the Colts are one step ahead (though they will still lose) by having Old Man Flacco back there-he’s so much better at reading coverages, DC Flores will have lost the advantage he had with another QB back there.

Do you.
