Let’s keep ‘er rolling along like a certain running back, shall we?
TO THE GAME!
Seahawks/Packers:
-Are the Packers the most underwhelming 13-3 team in ever? I went down their sked and I can see all of 2(!) quality wins. One is versus the Chiefs early in the season and the other is against the Vikes much later on. There was much dreg to play against and they won most of them. When they did play a half decent squad they got their balls blown off by the Niners, 37-8.
-Rodgers 7.5 yards per pass attempt is his lowest since 2011 and speaks to the receiving corps not having a game-breaker anywhere on the roster. Yet Davante should do okay-the last time he played against cb’s Griffin and Flowers in a game he had 65+ yards against each one of them.
-Seattle has acquitted itself well in the run game despite leaning on a 3rd stringer, a practice squad-er and a guy that was living in a cardboard box under a bridge just three weeks ago. And the passing game is coming along as well with D.K. Metcalf catching 3 balls 20+ yards down the field just last week.
-Maybe keep an eye out for Wilson turnovers, particularly intercepts. In seven games against the Packers he has 10 picked passes. Green Bay is +12 in turnovers this year so this might be a thing.
-Prediction Time! I’m not sure about this one but I do know it’ll be close because Seattle loves themselves the one score final whether it’s a W or an L. Let’s say Seahawks 27-24?
Let me see those those brain farts of yours.

It’s not bad enough that the Rooney Rule sucks, but that it is used as an exemplar in professions where it also does more harm than good.
Wait — I didn’t want watch any NFL this weekend but just clarify this for me….
Green Bay just went and fired their long-time SB-winning coach last year because he wasn’t winning enough with the roster they built. Everyone is like, “nah, McCarthy is a good coach; he won a super Bowl, by GAWD!” and the Packers were just like, “yeahno, he should have more than that and we’re not wasting anymore time on this guy.” And they go get a new Rookie coach who Is probably just like, “holy shit, I’ll just do all the things everyone knows McCarthy should have done.” So I consider the Pack being in the conference game proof that GB made the right move and MORE IMPORTANTLY proved their assessment of McCarthy right.
And then Jerry Jones goes and hires Mike McCarthy.
This is hilariously true.
I take issue with the “hilariously” portion of that sentence.
Simplistic hot take is simplistic. However, it was definitely time to move on from McCarthy.
Jones views McCarthy as someone he can “handle” who “knows his place” and he will interfere with the team just same as before because players know who the boss is and can go over the coaches head if they have a problem. Now hot takes can proceed in both areas.
OK, back to automotive shows. See y’all tmrw for Lesbian U and Clitson.
Since September, games have ended at 1030 or 1100 pm on Sunday nights. It’s only 930 local tonight. What the fuck am I going to do? Yes, more Scotch and some edibles and a couple bong rips, I hate it when the season gets all tightened up.

Normally I’m a little jealous of the life my dog gets to lead but this weekend I am particularly jealous cause I’m here in snowy (and now sad) Seattle while she gets to hang out in sunny LA and sleep with models.
Model airplanes or model ships or model tanks?
On the bright side you get to experience the snowpocalyse first hand.
DangerRUSS legal stuffs?!
Rooting for the Titans is a gimme, but I think I’ll be pulling for the 49ers just so we can have a Belichick castoff Super Bowl.
The Belichick coaching tree is really a vine.
It’s been a few years since I had to actually decide who I was going to root for in the AFC, since NE has always been in the equation for me. This year, I’m pulling for the former Houston Oilers. At least Jeff Fisher is out of the picture, unlike back in January 2000.
You will have to wait until September.
Maybe I will get lucky and live that long.
Good Night fellow sacks of water with slight electrical activity!
It was an honor and a privilege to watch this here NFC game with you
Good night!
That time of the year where I have to remember what to watch at 10 pm on a Sunday night
Bob’s Burgers in one minute.
20 cents down and no commitment is also the NFL owners new proposal for rookie contracts.
/or am I the only one who just got that gym commercial?

Boo! Now the only good family drama left in the NFL is with the Bowlens.
And the Shanahans too, of course, as told by blaxabbath.
I think that AAron should drive up a little north and bang Princess Meghan. THAT will get some tongues wagging.
Rodgers with the passive-aggressive attack on his receivers giving us more than a slight hint why everyone who spends more than 30 minutes with him seems to hate him.
? the only interview I saw with rodgers was where he said that Adams carried the game for them
He did, but in the same breath took a shot at him for running out of bounds.
This irrational Rodgers hate is delicious.
Cowboys went out and got the man who made this possible by being kicked out of the organization
Oh fuck you.
/cries for an hour
“Standing in for Pete Carroll in tonight’s press conference, here’s Glenn Beck!”
“Glenn Beck couldn’t make it, so here’s Alex Jones!”
“Alex Jones is under a gag order, so here’s Milo Yiannopolis!”
“Ted Nugent will be providing musical accompaniment to Milo’s soliloquy.”
And he has a little treat in his pants for the media
Do you mean that turd he expelled and carried around in his trousers for a couple days in order to dodge the draft, manly man that he claims to be?
Yes
“OK, what’s the play call here Aaron?”
“Doesn’t matter, just run head first into the pile and the refs will give is 10 yards.”
Um… ok…..
And to think she’s made a halfway decent career out of that.
That’s only because Tawmy is at home mouth-kissing his sons instead of out on the field.
Meh, it’s been done.
Touchdown Seahawks.
Well, if we fuck it up next week, I’d rather have the Pack go forward than the goddamn Hox.
Janeane v. El Tractorcito por favor
I know you have no control over the result, but please do not let Green Bay win. I will be rooting for former Patriot QB Janeane G.
Well, three out of four games this weekend ended up in a manner that I do not like. Fuck this. Die Packers, Die Chiefs.
The Packers, The Chiefs?
Absolutely
WHERE’S YOUR MESSIAH NOW?
BLACK JEEBUS WUZ WATCHING SOUL TRAIN INSTEAD
Just can’t get away from old Don Cornelius, can we?
Cheeseheads are gonna get absolutely smoked next week
Mmmmm, smoked cheese… and headcheese…
Agreed. Tasty as mmm
Is smoking even allowed in California anymore?
wont even bring out the chains
I mean, maybe next time try modern offense before Q4, Truthers.
Jimmy Graham is not a crook?
Good god, that’s not even close.
At one point is an NFL coach just going to take his team off the field and then tell the press that if the NFL is just going to allow shit calls to decide the game he doesn’t see any reason to risk his player’s health?
Fail Mary makeup call?
And how is Blake Cleteman involved in every primetime game? I miss Sassy Ref.
Sassy Ref should be in the Haw-ell of Fame
Dez caught it
Truth, but the refs gave Dallas the game against Detroit the week before.
NO ONE DENIES THIS BUT NO ONE SEZ THIS EITHER.
I literally just did.
Yes, but you’re nobody so it doesn’t count.
Tough, but fair.
Yeah, but you are a Cowboys fan and your view of reality is as valid as the current president’s.
Viva, I don’t care what I’ve done to you or your family, if you ever compare me to Trump again as God as my witness I will set myself on fire just so I can haunt you for the rest of your life.
Tough but fair.
TOUCHDOWN SEAHAWKS
Short, but don’t give a shit, just like NAPOLEON
Oh I very much give a shit about Napoleons.
Yum! (strawberry better tho)
Ooh, I was so close to going in that direction too!
YES!?content-type=image%2Fpng
What a generous spot
You got to eat to keep ya strength up
Sorry IBM, when I hear Stealer’s Wheel’s Stuck in the Middle With You, I don’t think about connectivity, I think about psycho Michael Madsen cutting that dude’s ear off. Fuck you.
I think about wedgies, because of that Hanes commercial in the 90’s
That’s a much more pleasant visual.
Which is almost the exact opposite of connectivity, in that a mode of communication is literally cut off.
Alright, let’s fast forward to when the refs decide this game for us.
Does that generous spot count?
Given the lag on my feed, yes

Stadium loudspeaker played this last night in Baltimore. Jack White just laughed.
Already wen done dude. They called holding on a reciever when the quarterback was running
