I get a kick out of Jeff Reed, Week 8 NFL Thread

Rudolph is just playing a terrible game. Sure, he hit the open man on the touchdown, but he has missed far too many tonight. He has thrown too many behind his receivers tonight, including that last third down. Smith-Schuster was open, but Rudolph threw it toward the defender.

 

Fitzmagic! Steelers' line is getting to him consistently now. He just tossed that up for grabs, which is his MO.

 

Does anybody buy Booger's claim that even though the interception worked like a great punt, putting the Steelers at their own three, it was a big deal for the Steelers because it gave them momentum? I was dismissing it as more of Booger's nonsense, but the offense sure responded with a 97-yard touchdown drive.

Also, JuJu Smith-Schuster hasn't been great this season, but damn was that a special catch for the go-ahead touchdown. Rudolph underthrew it a little, but Smith-Schuster just stole the ball for him.

 

That was painful to watch

 

The replay? It was incredibly slow. They got it right, but it took way too damn long.

 

The replay. How long it took. Then having to reset the chains to do a measurement. Now having to replay the end of the third quarter.

 

Meanwhile, the league's perennial road team cans its OC:

Ken Whisenhunt has been relieved from his duties as offensive coordinator.

I guess the Chargers learn well from the city PR people that will dump some news at 4:50 on Friday afternoon with the hopes everybody will miss it.

 

Football always lends itself to something potentially being taken the wrong way, but Booger saying "I'm not a big sack guy" has got to be one of the dirtiest I've heard in a while.

 

Rudolph the Red-Hatted Reindeer is no longer getting booed as loudly as his boy Trump was in DC last night. He has been remarkably accurate in the second half.
And the guy who bet $100,000 on the Steelers in order to net $11,000 is breathing a bit better now.

 

The guy's name is Booger...

 

Has he said "I like what (really crappy team he's watching) are doing" yet?

 

Query: Why does he go by Booger?
Answer: Because he can't spell Anthony.
