Some more hot divisional action, which is a good thing in theory.
To The Game!
Pats/Bills:
-Interesting Matchup: Cook has rushed for 100 yards three games in a row and New England has the best run defense behind Cleveland’s, allowing a mere 3.3 yards per.
-Surprisingly, teams don’t pass on the Bills. They have a -14% pass rate over expectation which far and away leads every team. Perhaps coaches are seeing chinks in Matt Milano’s armor? He once was a tackling machine but age and injuries have caught up to him.
-Start your Kincaid: The Pats give up plenty of points to the tight end position.
-Buffalo took a gamble on oft-injured Joey Bosa but it’s paid off early. He has four forced fumbles and tops everyone with a 23% pass rush win rate. His usage has been conservative though-he plays about 75% of defensive snaps.
-Is Drake Maye “The Guy”? One egghead stat backs up the claim. Of all the second-year QB’s that are starting he’s the only one in the top ten in Expected Points Added per dropback, coming in at 5th.
Let the good times roll.
Mark Sanchez is so inept, this could be a joke but with him, there’s still a chance this is what happened.
“the hell I do”
-Kendrick Lamar
Counterpoint.
Imagine if you had a parlay of UCLA beating Penn State, Broncos beating Philly, and the Pats beating Buffalo.
You could retire.
We could all retire any time. Just depends how you feel about sleeping on concrete.
suck it buffalo
Pretty good day for winless teams that aren’t the Jets
Watching Tigers-Mariners, (to see who Toronto plays next, natch), and the Mariners just took the lead late and they cut to a guy in the crowd who was overcome to the point of tears.
My brother in Christ, this is the final 8. Get a grip.
That’s all well and good, but how does that impact the Leafs’ chances over the rest of the decade?
Wasn’t me! I’m at home in tears.

Just tuned in, is the Drake good or Bills bad
Yes.
MAYBE
Sadly the Drake seems good and composed.
Reminds me of a young Matt Stafford
Is this a game of football or hot potato?
I was going to say “foot potato” but that would just summon Rex Ryan.
That’s nonsense, he started the tackle inbounds and it’s not like he did anything excessive once they crossed the boundary.
Although I guess it *was* a hip drop tackle but I thought the NFL’s perspective on that these days was…
He wouldn’t have gotten that foul if he had telekinesis!
After years of wishing every Steeler fan in the world would die of toxoplasmosis, I’ve switched the force of my hatred onto Bills fans. Also fuck them for propogating the term “mafia.”
Wow man… okay… sorry…
He’s just mad because the phrase ‘Bills Mafia’ reinforces that Italians are filthy criminals who can’t be trusted.
Fortunately I’m Irish and we have no such adverse stereotypes to deal with.
/goes back to drinking beer while writing a novel that could be described, at best, as ‘indecipherable’ while simultaneously topping off an empty soda bottle with gasoline.
You forgot: getting hammered and fighting my cousin at a wedding; giving long toasts that involve crying and fighting with your cousin at a wedding; and spilling a beer on your aunt and getting in a fight with your cousin at a wedding.
Is that the Irish or the Italians?
Yes.
And the reason there are so many weddings is because every family has 14 damn kids

Wait, are we talking Italians or Irish here? Because brother, I’ve seen both.
I need Drake Maye to do something.
/monkey’s paw gets ready to jack off Bob Kraft
I feel bad for the monkey paw
A lot of stuff falls under the “something” umbrella
And yet Congress continues to fail
What a bunch of clowns.
they can go eat a bag of rotten dicks
They furloughed the bag of rotten dicks
No, Stephen “Pee Wee German” Miller is still on the job.
Lol Rhamondre!
To help everyone out, I bet the Under 38.5 in the 2nd Quarter at 3-3. Expect them to go full NBA with 5:00 left in the 4th quarter just running up and down the court/field scoring layups.
Just got a news alert that they pulled a body out of reservoir down the street from my house, which is surrounded by woods, where I walk my dog. Which I did earlier this evening.
I swear I did not do it. I had nothing to do with the body found in the large reservoir near my house surrounded by woods that I was in earlier to…
Have you checked in with Lowratio?
Oh shit.

This isn’t how I anticipated “making the news,” but here we are.
These two morons are lucky they weren’t killed. Shouting threats, and warning officers the entrances are rigged with explosives while standing, shirtless, on the roof is one way to try to make whatever your point is. It’s not safest or smartest, but it is one way.
EDIT: My dipshit ass neglected to leave this: https://www.wpxi.com/news/local/2-men-custody-after-swat-responds-home-perry-south/IONNG5XYJRE33IAGIJSOWJBAMI/
Are you the 911 dispatcher who was quoted?
Negative 😉
Its definitely one way to make your point. Its also a way to get the cops to go straight to “shoot to kill”.
Doesn’t sound like a hobby that’ll catch on
More like Emari DROPmercado, right?
Hunter James Henry you get in this house right now young man.
And we are back. I sincerely hope this doesn’t turn into another 18 hours. As much as I genuinely do enjoy this, 18 hours is a long time to do anything. Except maybe jerk off?
I believe the technical term for that is “gooning”.
Smoke pot, eat chocolate eclairs, jerk off. Can it be a solid 18 hours of each or can it all be mixed together for the 18 hours?
I once stayed awake for something like 39 straight hours.
I highly recommend not doing that.
Same here. My record is about 40 hours. Each step felt like there is duct tape on the bottom of my shoes, I felt like I was sweating but with no sweat, my blood felt like it was replaced with battery acid, and when I lied down to sleep, I laid in bed for about an hour feeling my pulse do an impression of a car with a hunting idle.
This was during my initial introduction to the joys of insomnia. No sleep the night before, drove to work, drove home, (neither of which was a good idea), went to my kids LL practice, helped paint a bedroom, then went to bed.
This time I took a Lunesta and I could literally feel the sleep coming on. I’m not going to say that feeling was better than sex, but I’m not not going to say so either.
For me it was Valerian Root and Melatonin. Its a unique experience being able to remember your dreams for 30 minutes instead of the usual 5 seconds. Plus, occasionally you realize you are dreaming and it becomes a lucid dream you can slightly control.
Big fan of the melatonin.
“Not me.” – Jerry Jones, thinking you are referring to “melanin”
5-HTP gives you some vivid dreams, no idea if it helps me sleep better or improves mood or whatever but the dreams are pretty kickass
Ambien dreams are the reason I switched over to Lunesta.
Lunesta not having a generic equivalent and being like $300 a month OOP are why I switched over to the occasional melatonin and just taking naps in the afternoon because I work at home and no one checks up on me.
43-ish is mine. There’s a point where things get… strange.
It’s really not great.
Yep, due to a med misshapen, was awake for 72 hours, after 40 hours – well reality becomes plastic. Never cold turkey antidepressants, even if the doc says to.
Jesus Christ.
Bobby Kraft hoping to get a happy ending during halftime.
Buffalo striking fear by wearing their wooden nickels uniforms.
Kid chased me upstairs so no more laptop/FM to keep me awake. The struggle is real.
This SNF game is our punishment for the TNF game.
Patriots trying to hold onto the ball:
Phil Wang hates this.
Still my favorite season of Taskmaster
Lol, I have Stevenson AND Diggs.
And unless they get a combined negative 40 points you’re still winning lol
Up-Close: Bills Alternates looks decent.
Far-Away: Bills Alternates look like Raiders Throwback Aways
Too similar.
ANOTHER SUDDEN CHANGE!
Oh man! Johnny got cut off for calling the host a “butt-kisser”.
I love your Zona radio recaps.
I have to back the host on this point: no one in the locker room ever has anything bad to say about Kyler Murray. Maybe it’s because the new soft players are more in touch with everyone having their own emotional challenges/physical handicaps. But, either way, you can say the players on the team never hang Kyler out. I think you get some “leadership” credit for that.
How many folk have said “Xbox, Jr.” so far?
Some of these assdicks need to understand there are worse things than taking a sack
What was the line in this game? Anyone know?
I’d take a stab that it’s 8.5
I was thinking 10 plus but I have no clue
Rotowire Thursday article listed 7.5
Calm down OJ
I’m going to take my second walk in a minute. My knee hurts, I think it’s because the opposite hip is so fucked up that I’m overcompensating. I wrapped it up, maybe that will help.
“You disappoint me.” – Antonio Cromartie
Dude, I’m 65. Even Cromartie’s super swimmers couldn’t knock my old ass up!

THIS GUY RHAMONDRE STEVENSON I CALL HIM A SAMSQUANCH ‘CAUSE HE’S GOT THE GREASIEST FUCKIN’ HANDS OF ALL TIME
Sooooo greasy
For these refball incidents when no formal penalty is assessed, the official should at least spank somebody. SEND A MESSAGE.
Whack his peepee!
+1 Cheech and Chong
Refraining from spanking people is WOKE. So if they refuse to do it it means they hate America.
How many times have you heard the phrase “Bell cow” today?
As many as my hike thru Grindelwald, Switzerland.
Is that where that Harry Potter guy committed all those crimes?
At the musical dairy I work at, plenty.
Zero because I’ve been watching everything in Español.
I thought it was because you couldn’t hear anything due to all the vacuuming.
Armed and Hammered, and Brocky, you did nae set your lineups in Ligue Deux.
Don’t want to be a free pass ass. Grab that broomstick. Fight the sisters.
Yeah, gonna let it ride man. Will take a look after MNF.
That the same asshole who always fumbles for NE?
I believe it is. Could you imagine if this happened under Belichek?
Pre-deflation era or post?
Yup. Told you he sucks!
THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO SMOKED MORE POLES THAN COLLINSWORTH WAS THE GERMAN ARMY IN SEPTEMBER 1939
I bet Buddy Cole’s Halftime Show knows at least a dozen individuals who have exceeded Collinsworth’s total personally.
SUDDEN CHANGE!!!!
sudden change 🙁

Well, the war started off with a vicious battle, but now both sides have dug in and it’s a battle of attrition. (I’m talking about the current disagreement between me and the wife.)

This last caller was 42, has been a fan of this team his whole life, and this is the worst lost he has ever seen.
Being an NFL fan is like being a smoker.

This alternate Bills Mafia kit weirds me out.
Better than the Quards! I still think the Fins black ones are king thus far.
I liked the Fins’ alternate lid, but not the kit itself. And I don’t dislike this one, it just unsettles Hippo.
So does cheese.
The shiny numbers on Miami’s black unis ruined them. If they had normal numbers, not those plastic shrinkydink ones, I would have liked them much better.
Erika is calling to complain that the Titans fans are a bunch of poor winners. She’s never seen such a thing.
Her husband is going to punch her in the face tonight then go search for flights to Epstein Island to rape kids like his hero, Donald John Trump, the kid rapist.
Our very own DonT needs to call into this episode.
DonT is a fun conversation.
Though ICE might trace the phone call back to him and deport him to Mexico.
He would like Mexico, I reckon Honduras not so much.
South Sudan FTW!!!
“Why would be deport him from Puerto Rico to a different foreign country?” – ICE official, in complete seriousness
“Because we can.” -Temu Goebbels
Obligatory:
“SHUT THE FUCK UP, COLLINSWORTH!”
We all know that a guy with an EPAPD in the top quintile is a sure fire hall of famer.
We’re finally ready to take callers on the Arizona Cardinals Post-Game Call In Show!
Wait — after we hear from Kyler!
Is he stuck in the COD lobby until his friends can play?
Mike Bidwill’s sexuality aside, it;s a FARE question
Very glad the Jets didn’t listen to me and draft Baker Mayfield with their first pick, because looking at what they’ve done to every QB since then, (and pretty much before then, for that matter), and just the Jets in general, Mayfield would probably have suffered a career ending injury in his 2nd or 3rd game.
I have a 95.5 point lead against my Lowratio league opponent, with Hunter Henry still to go, and my opponent down to only James Cook.
Yahoo gives my opponent a 1% chance to win, so get ready for an explosive game for Cook and an equally explosive, (as in “diarrhea”) game from Henry, apparently.
/benches Henry, just to be safe
I’m up by 22, with a WR, RB, and a TE still to play. Zymm has nobody left, but Yahoo is still giving her a 1 % chance. Rhamondre Stevenson sucks, but I feel confident he’s not going into negative points.
I need Etienne to lose 10 yards and get injured for the rest of the game and I’ve got an 11% chance. They got the remedial robots working.
Fox: “Up next: Baseball!”
Me: “No, its not” (grabs remote)
me: *when the bills take the lead 28-10* yes, it is
The Yankees feel behind 12-0 today, eventually losing 13-7 after losing a 10-1 heartbreaker yesterday, so it seems I’ll soon be watching the rest of the post-season as a neutral observer.
Pro: Phillies, Tigers
OK: Blue Jays, Mariners
Con: Dodgers, Brewers
FU: Yankees, Cubs
Blue Jays and Dodgers join the Cubs in the FU category for me. I’d be OK with the Mariners or Tigers. I would like the Brewers or Phillies to win.
The Yankees are already rebuilding for next season.
Joe Burrow has had enough of Zac’s and Jake’s bullshit.
