Fucking hell, the Steelers / Ravens game has been moved to Sunday due to a COVID outbreak within the Ravens' camp.

Of course it would have to be the only game worth watching tomorrow. 2020 is a fucking btich.

Think this was more because the Ravens wouldn't have been able to practice at all if it hadn't been postponed but still fuck them their fault

So the Texans get a pick 6, then force back to back fumbles... only for the Lions to force them to fumble on the play after their fumble recovery... I have no idea what the fuck is going on in this game right now.

First half done and well, they certainly brought the turnovers for Thanksgiving. The Lions looked like they were going to roll over the Texans after they scored on their opening drive and their defense quickly got Houston off the field. But, these are the Lions we're talking about, so to expect anything less than disappointment is futile.

Well fortunately for them, it's also the Texans. They have the unique ability to make a massive lead disappear in just a few short minutes.

Whatever happens though, rest assured, it's going to be fucking ugly.

After that terrible first game I hope this one is at least somewhat exciting. I'm still pissed that we won't see Baltimore and Pittsburgh when I'm a bit more buzzed and I'm in my own house.

What the fuck was that fake punt just now? 4th and 10 on your own 23 yard line -.-
EDIT: And Washington gets a 23 yard TD immediately right after, first play after the punt

Wow son, the Cowboys got straight up scalped by the [ Name Redacted ]. That was a brutal second half.

Nothing like watching Skip and the Cowboys get BTFO. All in all not a terrible Thanksgiving.

As of right now, I don't think the Steelers and Ravens will play on Sunday. Four more cases, including Lamar Jackson. I don't know if they'll move Baltimore-Dallas to Sunday rather than next Thursday so that Pitt and Balt can play on Monday/Tuesday. Up to anyone's guess what'll happen now

I think it will still be played Sunday, but I'm obviously biased. Maybe they flex it to Monday, but any further than that is really pushing it. Just another reason for me to hate the Ravens I guess.

Lamar getting the coof could be a blessing in disguise though. I'm looking forward to the RGIII redemption arc.

I didn't know you could not throw the balls twice.

Jalen Rose calling Skip water pistol Pete is the all time greatest hot take show moment.

Also fire Mike Mccarthy

Lol these faggots pushed it back to Tuesday now

Ravens cant get their shit together, how about they fucking forfeit already

 

[Iron Hamster]

Joe burrow being carted off with a left knee injury in Washington. That kid was doing so good, but when you have a shit O-Line and keep getting hit, then that's what eventually happens. He was limping last week in their loss to Pittsburgh.

EDIT: Reports are that Joe Burrow has a torn ACL

Also MCL

Lol Cowboys-Ravens is now next Monday at 5 EST. I get not wanting to conflict with the normal MNF game, but that's so early on a weekday. Should just move the regular MNF game back an hour.

“He’s someone that’s a global star,” Mahomes said, transcribed by WEEI. “For me, I just try to be myself and go out there every single day and put in the work and try to win football games. All that other stuff kind of comes with it. For me, I just try to be a normal guy and live it up with my teammates, and have fun doing it.”

Brady has six Super Bowl titles, three MVP awards, three First-Team All-Pro nods and a laundry list of other accomplishments. Mahomes is set up to potentially pass up Brady in the future, but it’ll take continuity within his team and longevity that’s only been held by Brady — who’s 43-years-old.

I still remember like it was just yesterday that people were saying (almost) the exact same thing about Ravens QB Lamar Jackson. A lot of people love Mahomes.

heard this idiot on the radio today saying mahomes was already the best QB of all time and whoever he was talking with some idiot from sports illustrated agreeing like a bitch

1 super bowl and lots of talent doesnt make someone the best QB of all time, dorks

Until (unless) Mahomes does more than Brady, then Tom Brady is the GOAT. Mahomes right now reminds me a lot of how much people praised Aaron Rodgers 10 years ago and were already anointing him the best QB ever. You get people like Colin Cowherd already saying that the Chiefs are going to be the next dynasty and maybe they will, but to say that after 1 SB appearance and all of the accolades is just too soon. Remember how Seattle or Green Bay were going to be the next dynasty?

We need to bring back the XFL ASAP, at least there would be good Texas teams which is something I desperately need for my morale

They're currently saying they're coming back in the spring, but as it's currently looking like 2021 is just going to be more 2020, who really knows. Watchlist our XFL thread if you aren't already.
