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.

Made it home from America. A few points:

– I now understand how a teammate broke Geno’s jaw
– What’s wrong with the Seahawks can’t be fixed over their bye
– Your elections are blood sports but no one swears
– Canada Customs can LICK MY BALLS

Unsurprised

_Your elections are blood sports but no one swears_

It’s called being DECENT FUCKING PEOPLE! Gah!

I’d like to thank everyone who sent me such wonderful cards and notes for the picture of my collection of erasers I posted recently, Many of you wanted to see more, so I thought I’d change it up a bit and show you my award-winning collection of batteries:

Was a fantastic weekend.

Be safe everyone and we’ll get through these next couple of days as a team!

TEAM ON THREE.

ONE. TWO. THREE.

TEAM!

WOO!

Horatio Cornblower

Holy crap, that Trump ad I just saw…was that live? Is he alive?

And by the way, shitface, I already voted and you can bet every bit of your orange make-up that it was straight blue, because of you.

Also, can someone who was paying attention please tell me why Goff and Love both have 11 points but Ray Davis on my bench has 23?

Doktor Zymm

Y’all, folk are FUN. On my way back to the airport but so glad I came out today!

Doktor Zymm

If we ever get a meetup with everyone I’m pretty sure the universe will implode so something to keep in mind if there’s a really bad Owl matchup in the offing

WCS

Or, you know, about 48 hours from now.

Horatio Cornblower

I nominate Willimantic, CT.

yeah right

We’ve got Toronto in April if you have any interest.

Interesting…

Unsurprised

Canuckistan! Never!

Horatio Cornblower

OK, but what would that mean for the Maple Leafs’ chances in the play-offs?

fleshwound_NPG

i am telling you, andrew luck put a hex on this organization that it cannot ever have another quarterback

I was about to finally declare “not elite” but let’s see what happens…

Texas-adjacent chili on a bed of Kosher egg noodles topped with shredded cheddar, diced white onion, and sour cream

fleshwound_NPG

skyline chili is the wario to this chili’s mario

Gumbygirl

That looks pretty good. It just occurred to me I haven’t eaten anything today but a deviled egg and a couple of Hershey’s miniatures.

Horatio Cornblower

You should have a couple more Hershey’s miniatures.

BugEyedBoo

That looks suspiciously like a bean in there.

Brick Meathook

‘Tis not. No beans, although I’m not against them. Also, this chili is 50% fine-cubed chuck (what you’re probably seeing), and 50% mild Italian ground sausage.

For this chili recipe, I can use 8/20 ground beef, cubed chuck, mild Italian sausage, Jimmy Dean mild pork sausage, and/or ground turkey, in any combination (although the ground turkey never exceeds 50%, usually 30%).

What did the Germans do to deserve… oh yeah..

I think we should call it all square after that game.

litre_cola

Is the OC for the Vikes wasted,?

A forward parking camera? Do they not teach “depth perception” in school?

WCS

Maybe the cameraperson lost an eye?

fleshwound_NPG

def need it for some of these XXXXXL sized pickup trucks now

litre_cola

Relegation vs litre

Not quite dead yet

Redshirt

So what did I miss in SNF so far?

WCS

You might have heard the CLANG of SHAN’KLOR a moment ago.

WCS

On the drive in to 9-1-1, one heard the CLANG of SHAN’KLOR’s offering before either of the announcers had a chance to speak on das radio.

Gumbygirl

What the fuck!!!

Bogdanski

He’s trying to drag you back to my level! I don’t think to have anything to worry about at this point

Bogdanski

*you, not to. Stupid fat fingers

Gumbygirl

I dunno, Flacco is ELITE! Whatever happens, at least we can both watch Monday Night Football without any stress. There’s always a bright side!

Bogdanski

Well, except for my kids asking “why do you always watch football?” but yes, you are wise and correct

fleshwound_NPG

why do the vikings even have a kicker, havent they learned (and suffered) enough

never having a facebook continues to be a winning strategy by me

Horatio Cornblower

The main reason I don’t trust AI is that it seems like only the worst people are really excited about it.

fleshwound_NPG

“hasnt missed a fg…until now”

a viking? never!

Gumbygirl

Piece of shit. I’m cutting him tomorrow. That will be the third kicker I’ve shitcanned this season. Zero tolerance!

Unsurprised

I apologized in person. But I’m sorry for how I act while drunk.

Horatio Cornblower

Meh, that’s what fistfights are for.

The Maestro

As I was saying earlier, FRAUDS.

fleshwound_NPG

it is amazing they still have fans after 1998

Game Time Decision

Watching “19-2” with Jarod Keeso of LetterKenny and Shoresy. Crazy the cast that’s in both shows.

Just got back from seeing Conclave with Ralph Finnes, Stanley Tucci, and John Lithgow are amazing. Character driven story, well told and excellent. My wife was happy to see what she called a movie for grown ups. Which was weird as every single trailer was for a Disney animated film.

Spur

Flaco is the current NFL Float Father. Its a mantle passed from generation to generation.

The Maestro

The Minnesota Vikings are frauds, and will always be frauds.

Spur

I bet those horns aren’t real too!

litre_cola

Are you drunk in yer basement? W is a W

litre_cola

The rest is material

Unsurprised

I’m drunk in public

SonOfSpam

Sirianni for coach of the year. Go Birds.

Bogdanski

I just need 20.5 elite qb points. I’m off to sacrifice a bowl of unflavored ice milk and a piece of white bread to the football gods

Spur

Mike Tirico “And here’s Melissa Stark reporting about her week in Indy”
Melissia “I gained 15 pounds!”

Spur

Now that am reduced to hate watch my Dallas team, am rooting for the Lions and Chargers

Horatio Cornblower

Going with the Fuck Liouns myself.

ballsofsteelandfury

Looks like the Seahawks coach looked at Sirianni and said, “Hold my beer.”

litre_cola

Impossible to reach that dumbassery

Unsurprised

They were definitely trying to see the world with their heads up their own asses.

Spur

Winner Winner.
Parlay is good.

fleshwound_NPG

seahawks. never normal. not even once

King Hippo

I am willing to bet there has NEVAR been a game where a QB threw THREE TDs in the last minute of either half, but accounted for ZERO points the rest of the game.

litre_cola

Fired. Sirianni

Gumbygirl

In the locker room

fleshwound_NPG

with the lead pipe

Spur

he did all he could to let the Jags win but Duval was more interested in smoking meth

yeah right

Present! At least for now.

Had an appointment for tattoo correction so I’m freshly inked again.

It’s awesome.

Incredible weekend so far so let’s put a goddamn bow on it tonight.

Gumbygirl

What I need is for Minny’s D to curbstomp Flacco, and/ or their kicker to go OFF! Pleaseandthankyougodbless.

Bogdanski

Boo! Though you’re still my favorite

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

One funny thing that happened while we were in Philadelphia was that the Dr. Mrs. tried to give a homeless guy a tupperware full of cheese and his response was “Miss, I don’t want this,” as he pushed it back into her hands.

BugEyedBoo

I was on a business trip in SF, and had about $5 left on BART tickets on my last night there. I was walking back to my hotel, and this guy comes up to me with a sob story about being stuck downtown with no way to get across town. “You’re in luck, there’s enough on this ticket to get you anywhere.” Turns out he wasn’t really stuck downtown.

Unsurprised

Just a small town boy going a…ny…where … but a place accessible via BART

King Hippo

CHEESE, too horrible even for hobos!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It was really good cheese, though. I was glad to get it back.

Game Time Decision

Wasn’t clean enough

Gumbygirl

She should have thrown in a nice Dustbuster

Unsurprised

Cash booze or drugs
