Your Monday Night NFL Football Open Thread

[climbs out of shamehole, brushes dirt from pants]

Last night, that didn’t go well! What a travesty-the talent gap has not been sufficiently closed, folks. At least I’m up in my fantasy leagues.

Fallout:

-We Have Ownage Transference? Julian Love’s longish stay in the qb waiting room seems to have paid off for him. Congrats to him for helping to beat the Bears.

-A Little of This, (Yay!) A Little of That.(Oh No) Jacobi Meyers justified his signing right out of the gate by scoring double 6’s yesterday but then the hammer came right down on his head and it’s off to Concussion Town.

-It’s Never Good News: Alas, whenever Pacman Jones shows up as an item, it tends to involve the authorities. Getting escorted off a plane while being intoxicated for a 6am flight-why not get smashed at home like a (relatively) responsible old guy like me?

-Speaking of the above item… Antonio Brown reportedly blew 125K on the Vikes yesterday. At the age of 35 I’d expect the ‘He’s Penniless’ stories to hit within the next five years.

To The Game!

Bills/Jets:

-These guys split last year with New York winning by 3 and Buffalo winning by 8.

-The Redemption Tour of Gabe Davis: The world was his oyster last year with many predicting he’d go to the next level as a wr. I think if you wanted him you’d have to grab him in the 3rd or 4th round. It didn’t happen. A toxic mix of nagging injuries and dropped balls sent his season sideways.

-Hey, who is Sauce taking on tonight? Some say he’s shadowing Diggs but others say he’ll stick to the outside. Perhaps the guessing is a reflection of the fact that he can play anywhere on the field.

-James Cook is the latest rb to be offered up as a difference-maker on the Bills O. Though to me the run game seems to be an afterthought after Allen came on board. Singletary and Moss had their chances but failed miserably. Or is it that GM Beane just can’t identify rb talent?

-Nuff said about Rodgers everywhere else so not here.

-Will Dalvin or Breece dominate carries or will it be evenly split? I’d guess they’re within 5 carries of each other, further muddying the waters of those folks that drafted them.

Do your thing.
