Bender's NFL LIVE THREAD Week 13

Big news folks, though talk is disgraced NFL Commissar Roger "The Clown" Goodell is about to get a new contract, I've gotten word of another contender for the post. Captain...Smith is it? Welcome.

"Thank you for allowing me this interview, Mr. Hearst."

Um....the name's Impy. William Randolph Hearst is quite deceased I'm afraid.

"Sorry, I've been out of it for a while, my corprse was only just reanimated by a charming redhead."

"Don't mention it."

So Captain, why do you think you are qualified to lead the NFL?

"Well, I have 17 years experience in Her Majesty Queen Victoria's Royal Naval Reserve and 25 years experience commanding sea-going vessels for the White Star Line of Boston Packers. While using the services of your great American wizard, Google, to try and acertain my chances of regaining my position with the company, I discovered they went out of business. I also discovered a sport ball team called the Green Bay Packers and heard about what a ridiculous circus clown is leading your NFL. Since ships are powered by witchcraft nowadays I figured leading your NFL would be the next best thing to sailing the ocean blue. The only thing I don't understand is why your footballs are misshapen and the players wear armor whilst commiting numerous hand ball fouls. But I'll figure it out in time, I should think. I couldn't do worse than this knobgobbler, Goodell. I did get 1500 people drowned but....come on, right?"

Wow, well best of luck Captain Smith, I hope you get the gig.

We're a little short on time today so that will have to do. Here on the homefront my Bears are facing the San Francisco Soapy Niners. They've gotta win right? Right? Belly Button Chick?

"If they don't I'm defecting to Green Bay!"

I saw on the Denver news this morning, the Broncos are sucking so bad, season ticket holders are trying to sell their tickets but nobody wants to buy them.

If it were any other team, I’d pick them. But I can’t ... won’t ... pick the deadskins. It goes against everything I believe in ... or something like that. Cowboys suck, but they’ll beat those deadskins one way or another.
Miami sucks more than the Cowboys. Denver sucks morer. Phins win at home.
Ravens.
Old Oilers beat the new Oilers.
Jags.
Chiefs get back to winning in NY.
Vikes.
BiLLLLs pull off the divisional upset.
9ers have won their one game this season. Bears.
Battle of the Bays ... not much of a battle this year. Packers.
Browns are hopeless. Bolts.
Ain’ts.
Rams.
Raiders.
Philly.
Stillers.

Goodell is costing the NFL at least $500 MILLION as things currently stand. Viewership is dropping like a smart bomb! Stadiums have more empty seats with each passing week.

The morons are considering giving this disaster a contract extension???

Who do these people think they are? CONGRESS?

"They didn't drown, Captain, they froze to death......................"

"I am very distressed to learn that Mr. Badger. I've only just now seen the film strip made about the tragedy. It has synchronized sound! Unbelievable. But it's less than accurate in many places. For instance, I was the one who had the love affair with the young lady and sketched her naked form. Only it was actually 6 young ladies, not just the one. We certainly didn't befoul any of the fine automobiles we were transporting, however. I confined all such activities to my stabbin' cabin. It also omits my epic battle with the giant octopus."

Breaking news into the sports desk. Reports out of New York are that Eli Manning has been benched in favor of....Geno Smith . Eli, do have any comment?

"No, it's serious. You see, I'm trying get fired."

Another week, more picks. Here goes:

Washington at Dallas: Dak's confidence must be waning after terrible outtings in recent weeks. Fortunately Jason Garrett is there to pull out all the coaching tricks in his arsenal to get him back on course. Look, he's clapping and smiling at Dak right now. And there it is, the fist pump! Bang! That ought to do it! Redskins win
Denver at Miami: Denver has no QB but they have a respectable defense. On the other hand, Miami has the passion and fire of Jay Cutler. Dolphins win
Detroit at Baltimore: Detroit needs a win but so does Baltimore. Both 6-5 mediocre teams, but the AFC is so bad that Baltimore could still get in. On the other hand, the NFC south alone has three teams with more wins than Detroit so a wildcard looks hard. Lions just have less to play for. Ravens Win
Houston at Tennessee: Texans are weak, too many injuries to overcome this year. Tennessee isn't great but in a weak AFC they have racked up victories. That continues this week. Titans Win
Indianapolis at Jacksonville: Are the Colts still taking airplanes to their away games or does their owner make them go greyhound? Might as well leave the driving the greyhound because the colts will already be leaving the winning to the Jags. Jaguars win
Kansas City at N.Y. Jets: Last week I said mean things about Andy Reid on the thread. Well, maybe not mean. Accurate? Whatever, I will make it up to Big Red right now. Chefs win
Minnesota at Atlanta: This ought to be a good game. Atlanta is desperate to stay in the hunt because at 7-3 they are in third place in a crazy hot division. Vikes are just about uncatchable in their division and coasting to a 2nd place seed at this rate. On the road in a dome with very little to play for? I think the Vikings may be a better team but I'm going to take a risk and say Falcons win
New England at Buffalo: I predict the over/under on players picking Buffalo this week to be ZERO and I'll take the under. Patriots win
San Francisco at Chicago: Gadzooks, I hope they post a warning in the pregame show so that the unspspecting public doesnt accidently watch this. I guess I have to pick someone but it's not going to be easy. When in doubt, home team gets the win. Bears win
Tampa Bay at Green Bay: Two bottom dwellers duking it out, how fun. When in doubt, home team gets the win. Packers win
Cleveland at L.A. Chargers: Let's see ... oh it's the Browns. Browns are 1-26 since passing on Carson Wentz in the 2016 draft. This isn't the week the end the drought. Chargers win
Carolina at New Orleans: Good game. Both teams are red hot. But Saints lost in a tough way last week and they are at home with their future hall of fame QB wanting to regain ground in the playoff seeding. I think Saints win
L.A. Rams at Arizona: Rams are better than the Cardinals. Simple as that. Rams win
N.Y. Giants at Oakland: As long as the Giants have Eli Manning at QB they always have a chanc... hold on, getting a tweet... WHAT?! Geno Smith? GENO SMITH? I ... wait ... I ... no that can't be right. It is? Excuse me, I have to sell my home and put the proceeds on the Raiders to win. Raiders win
Philadelphia at Seattle: This is a tough one, Eagles are legit, I have no doubt. Good in all phases of the game but they are young and playing a decent but depleted team in a really tough venue with a wizard at QB. If they were in Philly I'd take the Eagles but in Seattle? Tough call. I feel like they may be getting a bit cocky and due for a punch in the mouth wake up call but I still have to go with my heart and say Eagles Win
Pittsburgh at Cincinnati: I just don't think the Bungles can do it this week. Steelers win

Oops, I probably ought to enter the concussion protocol because somehow I said the Dophins would win thanks to the passion and fire of Jay Cutler. Excuse me and allow me to correct my pick.

THE BRONCOS WILL BEAT THE DOLPHINS

Thank you.
