NFL 2020: Week 7

Brady is basically human garbage so it makes sense. I mean they had a serial killer on the team.

According to Jay Glazer, Bruce Arians wanted nothing to do with signing Brown. It's something Brady has advocated for since he signed. Arians gave a hard "no" with the caveat that he'd only consider it if the team's WRs all got hurt. But Arians knew Brown from their time together in Pittsburgh and did not want him on his team.

Well the Bucs receivers are all hurt, and Arians has run out of leverage.

So, once again, blame Brady, and remember, actual GOAT Joe Montana didn't go around telling his coaches to hire rapists.

Wow. A Giovanni Carmazzi reference on NFL Gameday Morning. There's a name I blocked for the last couple of decades.

I have no idea who that is, but Wikipedia says he never played in an actual NFL game and was a 49ers backup, so not knowing him doesn't bother me.

Were they selling any of his jerseys?

He was one of those QBs taken ahead of Tom Brady in the 2000 draft, and was supposed to replace the just-retired Steve Young.

He had zero confidence and struggled to do anything. One of those cautionary tales about small school drafting (he was from Hofstra).

Baker Mayfield against the Bengals:

0-5, 1 INT

BRIAN BURNS BOOM BREES BUMBLE

Er, fumble. I am SO EXCITED to see that finger-licking midget get turned into a grease spot that I briefly lost the ability to type.

Also, Titans-Steelers is entertaining.

Jags say Minshew could be benched this week if he doesn't play well in the first part of the game.

Basically, Doug Marrone is trying to not get fired in the pending bye week.

Bring on the Jay Gruden era. Marrone should have been gone this offseason.

I did when he got drafted. Not sure why the talking heads haven't figured it out yet.

This will never get old.

Since then, he has completed literally every pass (16-of-21 on the game) and thrown 3 TDs.

EDIT: And now a 4th TD. Still no more incompletions.

Joey Syle, good from 64!

Problem was, the crossbar was 65 yards away. /sigh

I know how this ends. Time to go run those errands I had put off.

Damn, Joey Slye missed the field goal distance record by just a couple football lengths.

You don't hear the term "accidentally scoring a touchdown" tossed around that much.

And now Baker throws touchdown #5, though to be fair, one incompletion did sneak in there.

Detroit did the only thing they could to win, and Atlanta was stupid enough to do it.

I don't blame Gurley too much. He broke a tackle and had to try to slam on the brakes with his momentum carrying him forward. It's not like he was making an open field run and just forgot to drop down.

So Ward and Tartt are both out today? As if the Niners weren't missing enough, now they have neither starting safety?

Take 3 (2?) knees and kick from the 13 yard line

I'm shivering just looking at the conditions in Denver.

For those of you who had Browns -3.5, we want to thank Cody Parkey for shanking the final PAT.

How does this guy still have a job in the NFL?

Boy oh boy Cam looks ... not good.

Hoooooooooooow 'bout dem Cowboys?

Unnamed Cowboys players called out the coaching staff last week in an NFL Media report. Mike McCarthy questioned his players after Sunday’s game.

McCarthy didn’t appreciate that none of his players came to Andy Dalton‘s defense after Jon Bostic‘s dirty hit on Dalton. The other 10 Cowboys on the field — which included four backup offensive linemen — didn’t get in the Washington linebacker’s face.

Yeah, he looks completely cooked. Like, you know how a more rare than rare steak is referred to as blue or bloody? Cam is the complete opposite of that.

As a SEA fan, really needed Darth Sidious to come through and defeat SF but alas.

Last second YOLO throws into the end zone shouldn't statistically count as QB interceptions.

While we're at it, spikes shouldn't count as incompletions.

Well Minshew has a 101 QB rating at half, so Doug Marrone is sh*t outta scapegoats.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand there goes another Niners RB.

Patriots winless in October. All is right in the world.

And Deebo pulls up with a hamstring tweak. Hopefully not a bad one.

Niners quickly headed below 50% territory.
