I hope all the NFC teams lose

huh, there really are a lot of AFC vs NFC games this week. and each of the two NFC vs NFC games has one of the worst teams in the NFC so you can safely root for the underdog in both of those as well.

The last two times Dallas beat Denver, they won the Super Bowl that same season

Which means we haven't beaten them in 30 years

[Highlight] Joe Flacco: "I used to see guys sitting at the bar by themselves eating and I used to feel so bad for them and now I realize that dude was in heaven."

Same, Joe. Same.

Just making sure you saw this shirt, FFD

Oh man I did not and that's amazing

I need more of these Vikings

I forgot this was on

*Checks score*

Carry on

Yeah dont worry, so did the Vikings.

It's looking like Quentin Jonhston is going to finish with 0 points, which will be at least the third time I've had a receiver give me nothing this season even though they played

Zzzzzzz guys that game was straight up TERRIBLE

I guess I'm better off having skipped it tbqh.

Chargers unis much better last night after theose abominations on Sunday

Literally half of my fantasy team is on bye this week, and now AJ Brown and Calvin Ridley have been ruled out, so I had to pick up someone just to fill in for this week

And now Matthew Golden is listed as questionable what the heck

Purdy out again, Mac Jones back in

I also have two receivers and my tight end on bye, along with Ridley and Golden and also Jayden Daniels who's out

and Quentin Johnston who decided to take a bye week even though his team was playing so that's at least 4 and maybe 5 receivers on my roster giving me 0 this week if Golden misses the game

Johnston is like Jameson Williams and alternates between big weeks (when theyre on my bench) and goose eggs (when I put them in the lineup)

I have Jamo in both leagues as well, I feel your pain brother

Jamo the most expensive decoy

Kirk Cousins expected to play for Atlanta

Trying to raise his trade value...?

this is most X receivers though

Lamar Jackson is out again. The betting like has been rapidly pushing further and further on the Ravens all week because they all thought he was playing. It got all the way to -7.5. It's already plummeted to -2.5 and is expected to drop further.

Good luck, people who have Ravens -7.5!

It was wild from the start for the Ravens to be favored that much even with a healthy Lamar

I mean yeah I was perplexed all week, but reaching 7.5 was kinda staggering. Bettors are probably gonna get crushed on this game.

We would lose to the Jets in a mega ass cheeks bowl right now

Now now FFD let's not get crazy. The Jets are a 6.5 point underdog to the Bengals for good reason tbqh.

Lucky for us we get to test this theory in just under a month

Tyrod is out with a knee injury, so unfortunately, that means another game of Justin Fields

This is giving me flashbacks to 2021 and 2022 where Lamar was "just a week away from returning" the for the rest of the season.

NY Radio on the Jets

"I thought last year was the worst coached year of this team in two decades, then Aaron Glenn and his staff came in and said 'hold my beer'".

There's already a lot of one and done grumblings "lol"

Also this week in pick 'em makes two weeks ago look like it had parity.

Would anyone be surprised if Miami beat Atlanta 30-0 btw

Barkley 65 yard TD run to start the game. Eagles already playing angry which is a good sign.

Justin Fields on 4th and Inches

well we all know how this ends

aaand there it is

Jets have 4th and less than half a yard at their own 37, are desperate enough to go for it, and lose two yards.

Giants go backwards 3 and out and Eagles going right down the field again.

I'm going to work in a bit but I think I've already seen enough tbqh.

It ends

IN A TOUCHDOWN

(For the other team)

Bears with a couple of good drives that ends in them having only 6 points :/

Give it a couple minutes, the defense gets tired by the end of the half

I feel like if there is ever a situation where you need a QB to throw a ball 150mph one inch past a receiver's maximum arm extension, Caleb Williams is your guy.

I have no idea when that could come in handy but boy does he have that pass down.

so quickly they erased that adam gase season from memory

way worse coaching than these last two years. team is just bad.

Ok, I'm done. Tush push needs to be banned immediately. The NFL officials clearly have no idea how to call this play.

It was clearly fumbled, but the officials blew forward progress for absolutely no reason the moment the Eagles hit the first down line.

Game break just showed me Flacco bombing a 44yd TD to Higgins and I got wistful.

R.I.P. Nick Mangold

Yeah, just heard that (a little before the game kicked off) RIP, didn't even realize he was sick (genetic condition it seems?)

Pretty impressive TD throw by Fields given the situation - 4th down, defender coming right at him.

The ghost of the 49ers have not yet been able to stop the Texans offense from scoring.

Been trying to remember just how bad he was!

Skattebo's leg was not a leg anymore

remember that one game where they had the game basically won but he called the exact defense that could cause them to lose the game? (think it was like a zero blitz when the only way they could lose was getting beat for like a 70+ yard td pass - and surprise guess what happened!) that was fun

like it was so bad it was assumed he had orders from the top to tank (but then they won too many games in the last 3-4 weeks anyway and blew that too)

Well the Giants at least got to be fun and frisky for a little while this year!
