Your Thursday Night NFL Football Open Thread

Oh, we got ourselves a live one here don’t we? I was reading that these two squadoos have the best combined record of all the games that have been played on Thursday. Too bad one team didn’t bring many of its starters.

Newsy Notes:

-Stop me if you’ve heard this one before in 2016, 2017 and 2019-J.J. Watt is down and out for the rest of the season. Many writers/radio talkers made note that the herowarrior suffered the injury in the 1st half but played the entire game. Whatever-you and I could run around and hit people as well if we were all hopped up on copious amounts of kangaroo semen like he probably was. I look forward to the IG posts of him working out. #strongerthaneva!

-The Bengals are the top seed in the AFC playoff race this week and a trendy pick in Survivor. As I said when I lost my virginity, “This is happening too fast!”. If they acquire an edge rusher or cb before the trade deadline I’ll believe that the front office is all in. My guess is that they remain complacent the way they have for 35+ years.

-DAK! must ‘cross a threshold’ before he’ll be allowed to play on Sunday. No word on whether he has to identify the one, true grail afterwards.

-Rooney Rule Boogaloo: now teams are required to go through the motions with two minority coaching candidates before they pick the recycled white guy.

To The Game!

Packers/Cards:

-Guys by the name of St. Brown, Cobb, Taylor and Rodgers(?) are the wr’s that will be helping Aaron carry Green Bay to victory this evening. Also, they’ll be missing some cb’s and de’s.

-Arizonny has only played two one-score games all year but it still feels to me that when faced with some serious adversity they’ll lay an egg. After all, it’s in the Cards.

-Fantasy-wise, be advised that if you have Conner and play him, Edmonds will get the TD. If you play Edmonds, Conner will get the score. Yes, we do live in a confusing yet unjust world.

Do that thing you do.
