NFL Open Thread
— DrewM

Bunch of meh games except for tomorrow night's showdown in NOLA.

The Steelers & Ravens would have been a good one but Big Ben is out, so it's lost some luster.

1 I hope I go 2-0 again!

2 Too bad I can only truly crave 90's Skinemax babes, else I'd be delighted if she'd let me plunder her booty..hehehe.

3 I need McCoy and Bernard Scott (my backfield sucks, so I have to trash-pick!) to roll; I decided to bench Forte for Mike Bell. Yeesh.

Bengals to win today! Of course I said that last week, and look where it got me.

7 on the Steelers Ravens game: This is going to be a telling point for the Steeler coaching staff. We're about to find out if Big Ben and Troy have been propping Bruce Arians and Coach Tomlin up all year. As a Steeler fan, I think I'm not going to like the answer.

"Meh"? It's never meh when either the 'skins or Eagles are guaranteed a loss.

11 Indy-Houston's a decent matchup...good game last time they played.

Posted by: Uncle Milty at November 29, 2009 09:16 AM (Jwx5s)

12 Unfortunately, on one team I have DeAngelo Williams and on the other McCoy --two teams both coached by morons who are hell-bent on throwing the ball regardless of the game circumstances.

16 WTF?! Does anyone know if Matt Ryan got injured? I'm seeing Redman's in. If Why do injuries to my players always happen in the first fucking five minutes of a game?

I'm screwed this week.

This is where the Eagles take it to the house and the Redskins will burn up all their time outs and then try to put together a drive with less than two minutes on the clock. It ends the same way every week.

65 Aww, I thought the Bengals got to play a good team next week! Yeah, the Bengals could end up losing to the Lions, that's why they play the game, right? But somehow, I doubt it.

6-0, division champs bay-bee! All Steelers out there, HA!

Texans to fire Kubiak and hire Cowher.

I can't take it anymore.

67 Damn it, I should have followed my gut and started Fred Jackson. At least now maybe the Bills will stick with him and push Lynch back so there's a clear #1. But it'll probably be too late to help me.

From a commenter at Kate's:

Computer models project outcome: "Based on pre-adjusted historical data, the Toronto Argonauts should win. But after the adjustments, I'm calling a win for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in Toronto today."

True, past glory is sweet. And 6 rings is very impressive.

But pwning the Steelers at Heinz . . . priceless.

Looking forward to tonight's game [20:20 hrs].

It should be fun.

Drunkish.

With the Boy's schedule, if they can't beat the Skins, the playoffs shouldn't be a concern.

81 sorry OT, not at all footbal but at least this is an open thread. A little girl who is dying of cancer in the next day or 2 wants to be #1 searched on google or yahoo today. She is currently #3 on google. If you can limit google search to Delaney Starcher and use Bing or whatever for other searches today it would be a comfort to the family if she makes #1.

The Boys allowed the Skins to shut them out for three-and a half quarters last Sunday in the Jerruh Dome. The rest of their schedule is brutal. Its a very real possibility they could lose four out of their next five games and go 9 and 7 if not 8-8.

Alex Smith has racked up 15 pts in the first half for me, so far the signing is working out.

Posted by: Dang Straights at November 29, 2009 01:28 PM (bOV32)

Jared Allen YES! Interception!

Posted by: Dang Straights at November 29, 2009 01:39 PM (bOV32)

92 Dear Bengals fans: we don't call them the "Bungles" for nothing. As a steeler fan,I've seen us blow many playoff opportinuties, but if the steelers fall a yard short, the bungles fall 20 yards short.

Win a superbowl after 1982 then you can talk... that was like (your first and...) what? 27 years ago? wow. gotta hurt.

Posted by: tangonine at November 29, 2009 01:42 PM (C8Pcc)

93 Brett just may win it for me.

I'm probably done for in the other league, but Sims-Walker often gets his points late in the game so who knows?

Alex Smith is lighting the place up. Now I have to sign ANOTHER qb though because Ryan got hurt. Those toe problems last all season, too.

103 Well, the late Peterson TD pretty much fucked it for me. Too bad: his stats were pretty modest but Ryan's injury and Carolina's stubborn refusal to stick to their running game torpedoed my chances this week.

My Cowboys won on Turkey day. I tried out being a 'skins fan and got my teeth kicked in, it was pretty special.

Houston really needs to make a change in their front office, they're just clueless in games. Mike Shanahan could take them deep into the playoffs.

Posted by: Dang Straights at November 29, 2009 04:09 PM (bOV32)

107 The Bills....won?

They won!! Wooohooo!

You know, I was steaming about next week's trip to Toronto as usual, when ESPN showed highlights of what I perceived to be the Bills-Fins game. My thought process went as follows: "huh, those are the Bills all right but what's with the Fins' jerseys? ...wait, I thought we won the game, this looks like we're losing..."

It was at that point that ESPN revealed that it was the Grey Cup game and the ugly Bills road unis were actually those of the Montreal Alouettes.

That's just mean, ESPN.
