[professionallydeadinside]

OH MY GOD

I just had this silly thought, {It likely doesn't fit the characters that well but I do not care I need to tell you this before I forget}

It's 1:00am and Colt and Tom are listening to music and then eventually 'We Fell in Love in October' or whatever it's called comes on and Tom's singing along but not Colt so Tom's like "Be a man and sing the lesbian song Colt!"

Anyways so yeah, that was the random and dumb idea I had to share, thanks for listening

-🐑✂️/QB

NO THIS ISN'T DUMB AT ALL I LOVE IT!!! Tom pulls the homophobia card and they get into the pettiest argument wqasdfghgf

"Colt, bro, you can't not sing this during pride month. That's homophobic man"

"Homophobic?? How??"

Hey my friend at @transparentcatpngs don’t worry I won’t steal your game, but I’d love if you’d share my cat Bert Jones. He was named after the Baltimore Colts/Los Angeles Rams QB of the 70s.

He is my best friend in the world. I hate to admit it, but when he’s around it’s a treat. I just ain’t got too many friends, but Bert never ever lets a day pass without showing me overwhelming affection

A fantastic article from Albert Breer at Sports Illustrated about Joe. It's kinda long but worth the read. A lot of interesting comments from Joe, Zac, Dan Pitcher and even the Colts coaching staff praising Joe after their joint practice. This man might have the highest football IQ in the league. 🧠

AJ’s Analysis- Week One Preview⚡️:

Raiders at Chargers

Disclaimer: I am a Chargers fan so this will obviously be biased BUT I have been a football fan for the last 12 years and absolutely love dissecting the game and making comments so I figured I would give this a try! Please feel free to make comments and let me know your thoughts in my inbox!

Players to watch:

Los Angeles

Justin Herbert QB- Oregon- Year 5🩵

Pookie. Angel. Perfect prince. Idk. He’s just my favorite player in the NFL to watch. The arm talent, the decision making, the…everything. Ok so, this is honestly his coming out year. He’s finally got a coaching staff that is competent and hopefully working in an offense that doesn’t put the weight of the world on his shoulders. He’s also coming off of finger surgery and a minor foot injury so he should be healthy and ready to take over the league. Simple. I can’t wait to watch.

Stats: carried the team on his back pretty much all of last season, lost a finger nail, lost most of his sanity and then lost his season to a broken right index finger. Best game last year by far was the week 10 loss against the Lions where he threw for 323 yards and 4 touchdowns.

Cameron Dicker Kicker- Texas- Year 3

Little angel bean. Best kicker in the league. No further comments.

JK Dobbins RB- Ohio State- Year 5

Coming off of an Achilles injury and trying to shed the “injury prone” rumors, Dobbins is set to make his Chargers debut. One important thing to note, he’s only fumbled twice in his career…iykyk

Joe Alt RT- Notre Dame- Year 1

Here we go people! Fifth overall pick, mixed reviews from the audience. I’m rooting for him and the entire o-line to be much improved so I hope this first test shows that this investment in the “trenches” was worth it.

Khalil Mack EDGE/LB- Buffalo- Year 11

Recorded six sacks the first time these teams met last year. Was drafted by the Raiders in 2014 and has 100 career sacks, last season being one of his best in the last five years with 45 solo tackles and 17 sacks.

Joey Bosa DE/EDGE - Ohio State- Year 9

Also trying to shake injury prone rumors but seems to have taken on a new outlook and a new sense of excitement and motivation due to this new regime. Played in 9 games last season, starting 5 and still finished with 6.5 sacks. Honestly, looking forward to Joey making a big impact this season.

WR Room

I’ll preface this by saying I still miss Keenan Allen BUT ready to move forward. Very excited for Josh Palmer to get his time to shine hope he can stay healthy. DJ Chark excites me I’m gonna need to see some big plays from him. Quentin Johnston needs to have a breakout season. Ladd and Brenden are rookies but I need some huge contributions from them. Simi I know will show out when his number is called and if Derius the punt return king gets some targets I know he’s gonna put on a show. Nervous but excited to see how this goes!

Las Vegas

Gardner Minshew QB- Washington State- Year 6

Played in all 17 games for the Indianapolis Colts last year, made 13 starts and somehow always seems to know exactly what a team needs to get a win when his number is called. On his third team in his NFL career, looking to prove himself so he should come out looking to make a statement to keep his starting spot over AOC. Made the Pro Bowl last year with 305 completions and 3,305 passing yards, both career highs.

Davante Adams WR- Fresno State- Year 11

Your favorite wide receiver studies his film. Six Pro Bowls, three-time First team all pro, 39 games with 100+ receiving yards and has 9,637 receiving yards over the span of his career. Will get targets, will catch the ball and will probably score a touchdown (hopefully not two but who knows) this weekend.

Brock Bowers TE- Georgia- Year 1

Rookie Tight End making his NFL debut. Voted First Team All American by just about every single sports outlet in the country last season. Had 56 catches for 714 yards and six touchdowns for the Bulldogs in a 13-1 season falling short of a 3-peat not making the college football playoff but defeated Florida State 63-3 in the 2023 Capital One Orange Bowl.

Maxx Crosby DE- Eastern Michigan- Year 6

AKA Mad Maxx, neck tats can play football. Played in all 17 games last year and started. Heart and soul of the Raiders defense with 48 solo tackles and 14.5 sacks. Did get shaken out of his shoes by Justin last time and I’m sure he didn’t forget so he’ll be coming for vengeance.

Christian Wilkins DT- Clemson- Year 6

Entering his first season with the Raiders after a very successful five years in Miami. Recorded an NFL high 9 sacks for defensive tackles last season, started all 17 games and recovered two fumbles. Wilkins makes this Raiders defense a lot scarier and this will be a great first test for the often shaky Chargers o-line.

⏳FLASHBACK⌛️

Last time these two teams met, we all remember where we were…

1. Justin was injured, fresh off of surgery and Easton’s presence in the pocket is like a kid running late for curfew, very rushed and deer in the headlights

2. Defense quit and was ready to start fresh having lost faith in the entire coaching staff

3. We were all praying on the Charger downfall on this day and got what we wanted so sorry Coach Staley but…not sorry

Had to include this because baldy is gone and I couldn’t stand him. This was very embarrassing.

That’s it for week one!!!

Bolt the absolute fuck up

#29 Karl Kassulke played safety for the Minnesota Vikings from 1963 through 1972. Karl was a hitter. The first photo is Karl in Super Bowl IV against KC Chiefs tackling running back Mike Garrett. The second photo is at the Vikings Colts Monday night game in 1971. If you get the chance, YouTube the November 15, 1970 game or highlights between the Vikings and the Detroit Lions. He destroyed Lions QB Greg Landry on a safety blitz. Laid him out. It looked like Landry had been shot. Karl was in a motorcycle accident the day before training camp started in 1973 which paralyzed him and ended his career. The 4th photo is Karl in a wheelchair at the Chicago Bears game in 1973 in which the Vikings honored Karl. Former Viking QB Joe Kapp is standing beside Karl as he speaks into a mic in the last photo. Karl passed away in 2008.

3-14. Only 3 wins all seasons. The New York football giants have been around for a whole century and this is how they celebrate. They win 3 games. 0 division wins by the way. We couldn’t even get our complimentary home win against Washington. And I get it, the commies are good now, but we always got one over them. 100 years of New York football and this is the earliest in the season I checked out. I think I was done by the time DJ threw that pick 6 against the Vikings in week 1. Normally the giants would hold my fandom until week 8. They’d go on some stretch, winning 4 of 6, keeping playoff hopes alive until dropping the last 4. They couldn’t even do that for me this year. And you know what I was happy about that, meant we’d get our pick of qb in the draft (a draft that does suck across the board) but I thought our new GM and HC would get to come in, with cap space and a top 3 pick and get their guy. Then we beat the colts. Thank god the raiders, jags and pats all picked up a win or two in the last few weeks. So now we sit at pick 3. Two qb hungry teams ahead of us and plenty behind willing to trade up to get their guy. But that’s okay. This new regime will get Travis Hunter or Will Johnson and really set up this secondary. But no. John Mara can’t get his head out of his own ass for two seconds and because he doesn’t want to do the work to find a new GM and HC we’re bringing back these two bozos to run this circus. I consider myself a lucky nfl fan. When I was a kid I got to see the giants win a ring, but since then I have seen at best mediocrity. The New York giants are the joke of the league and that won’t change until John Mara fires his family and lets football guys make the football choices. He is just like his father. He will never be able to get out of his own way and as long as he is at the top of this organization, it will suck. But every season I will continue to get optimistic and continue to let my heart be broken by them. Maybe next year will be different, but we all know it won’t.

I think we haven't heard more about Arch's love life because he isn't the starting QB yet!

Cooper Manning, Arch's dad, did an interview with Colt McCoy recently and said Arch was partly drawn to the University of Texas because he could be a normal college kid in a big city (rather than The Guy in a small town). He's probably doing his best to be low-key during this time because everything will change for him once he's the starter.

Arch has wanted to play for Texas ever since he was a kid. He seems like a genuinely good guy by all accounts. I'll be rooting for him once he takes over at QB for Texas!

Welp, here is some info on Arch Manning for our anon!

SortaSports 2024 NFL Week 6 Predictions

SF-SEA (TNF): 49ers (I was already both late to this one and wasn't quite decided on who would win, but I'll just say I was likely leaning on San Fran, although I nearly picked Seattle tonight just as punishment.)

JAC-CHI (London): Bears

AZ-GB: Packers (The most random and underrated interconference rivalry of the past decade-and-a-half)

IND-TEN: Colts

HOU-NE: Texans

TB-NO: Buccaneers

CLE-PHI: Eagles

WAS-BAL: Ravens

LAC-DEN: Chargers (not by much though)

PIT-LV: Steelers (so many Battles of Mid this week!)

DET-DAL: Lions (especially since we won't have Brad Allen to worry about this time)

ATL-CAR: Falcons

CIN-NYG: Bengals (Although by so little that I'm wondering if I still need to process some more that our defense will make this team no better than 7-10 even if Joe Burrow has the greatest QB season since 2013 Peyton Manning. Tl;dr: I'm still preparing for the worst.)

BUF-NYJ: Bills
