Too much heat this week for an intro.
Let’s start the drive.
1st Down: A.J. Green decided he’s had enough and went straight Randy Orton on Jalen Ramsey. After a shove from the second year Jaguar Green applied what appeared to be a sleeper hold/full nelson slam and the punched Jalen twice.
Crime Mobb would be proud.
Mike Evans decided that it was a good idea to bull rush and punch Marshon Lattimore after the latter pushed Jameis on the sideline. He got a one game suspension but I can speak on his behalf and say he didn’t have much of a choice. You just can’t let someone walk to your sideline, push your quarterback, then run off without retaliation.
Trillville smiles in approval.
Look, I love a good sports fight just as much as Raider fans but please, for everyone’s sanity STOP PUNCHING PEOPLE WHO ARE WEARING HELMETS! Do you like broken knuckles? It’s like watching the guy with anger problems punch a wall because there are mushrooms on his pizza.
With that, one can’t talk fights without mentioning that one time Andre Johnson MOLLYWHOOPED Cortland Finnegan. He’s the only person in the history of the NFL that got it right. Take the helmet off THEN start punching.
2nd Down: I’ve made fun of the Browns a lot this season and I have no intentions on stopping now. The team tried trading for A.J. McCarron before the deadline but botched the paperwork. Reports are now claiming that GM Sashi Brown might have sabotaged the trade on purpose. The terms were that the Browns would send a second and third round pick for the former Alabama signal caller.
If Brown did intentionally botch the trade then he deserves a raise. Who on earth would give up second round pick for a guy who can’t beat out Andy Dalton? I know Jackson has worked with A.J. in the past but you gotta be smarter than that. It’s a hail mary attempt by a coach who knows the temperature on the seat he’s sitting in is set on hell.
A friendly reminder that Cleveland passed on Wentz, Watson, AND Goff.

3rd Down: John Schnatter, better known as Papa John, decided that enough is enough and spoke out about the player protest. The pizza giant said the NFL leadership is weak and that they should have nipped the protest in the bud last year. Papa John’s is the official pizza of the NFL so his opinion does carry a little weight.
You know what carries more weight, though? The bottom line.
Since the Papa decided to open his mouth his company has lost $70 million. On top of the DiGiorno has been mocking them on twitter.

For the record, that’s social media done right.
The truth is that if you’ve followed the Papa over the years this isn’t a surprise. The man cut hours and laid workers off so he didn’t have to provide healthcare. Why? Because it would cost an extra 14 cents per pizza to make sure his workers could see a doctor if they got the flu.
The main question is; who empowered him to say this publicly? The best answer would be his buddy, Jerry Jones. The Cowboys owner has been vocal about the protest and has started a mutiny against Roger Goodell. If Jerry wants Roger out there’s no better way to get other owners on board then by having sponsors speak out against the commissioner. It’s smart, in theory, but there’s a flaw. If Papa John’s does indeed pull its sponsorship you can guarantee that some other pizza company will be chomping to take their spot. The NFL is too much of a ratings giant for them to be threatened by a sponsor.
This one is for you, Papa.
4th Down: After getting throttled by Philadelphia it’s easy to see that the Broncos aren’t right. Their defense is great but it has gotten to the point where it just can’t carry the offense anymore. Brock proved that he’s still trash and doesn’t deserve to be in the league and Trevor should be on a practice squad at best. What has got to be infuriating to Denver fans is that Elway is wasting a great defense because he won’t pick up the phone and call Kaepernick. The same goes for you too, Houston. These owners are so caught up in their pride/racism that they’d rather lose than hire a superior quarterback.
Extra Points: Jon Lynch asking for Tom Brady is quintessential shooters gonna shoot. I’m not even mad at him for asking. Watching the Giants give up a touchdown on 3rd and 33 to a receiver screen made my heart smile. Wentz has surpassed Rodgers as the master of the hard count. The Jets dancing over the Bills has sparked one of the greatest things Twitter has given us. How is it still free?
