Dumping Them Out: NFL Football I Guess
Welcome back to another episode of Dumping Them Out. You may have noticed I did not write a Dumping Them Out blog last week. It was the first week I've missed, other than maybe one holiday weekend over Christmas, since I've started this hit series.
The reason I didn't do it last week is because I didn't feel like it. I was fresh off a Sunday night Labor Day weekend wedding in Cleveland, Ohio. I could have easily done it from the United Club Lounge as I waited for my 2 hour flight delay.
But instead I did nothing. I spent my time drinking free tequila waters and getting mad at Newark airport. Did you know that last weekend Newark airport shut down entirely for like 3 hours? There was some sort of radar issue.
Anyways, I'm sorry I didn't write my blog last week..I know it's hard to find girls in bikinis on the internet, and you all rely on me to recycle the same 400 GIF's in blog format every Sunday.
I spent the afternoon slate of NFL Week 1 having a picnic in Central Park, so I missed the first half of NFL games. But I'll still fire off some NFL takes based on what I've seen on my phone.
Anthony Richardson threw a good touchdown pass. His arm is very strong. Very athletic. Very demure.
As a Colts fan, I have full confidence in Anthony Richardson. If he can manage to stay healthy, I think he'll end up being a top 10 quarterback for many years. But there's also a world where Anthony Richardson is a bust, but at the same time finishes his career with 5 of the 10 most impressive throws in NFL history. Which would be very funny. But I don't think that's going to happen. He will be healthy and good and the Colts will win many Super Bowls.
Secondly, how fucking stupid did the Giants look today? I'm not even talking about their play on the field. From what I've seen, they sucked a bag of dicks football wise in their own right. But what were those jerseys? I'm not even going to give the Giants the respect of looking up why they were wearing these. What the fuck are you doing that for on Week 1? They're not doing this all season right? The winged helmets are bad. They don't look good. Nobody thinks they look good. Michigan only kind of pulls them off because they're historic. But nobody actually thinks those helmets look good. And the brown pants? The Giants might as well have just punted their entire season by wearing those Week 1. Hopefully they get the #1 pick next year. Clearly that's what they're going for.
Next thought. It's insane Jameis Winston hasn't gotten a real chance to lead a team in the last few years. Every year Jameis ends up on a team where there's a QB who the coaches deem "better" than Jameis. And usually the coach is right. But at the same time there are 10 other teams who are starting QB's WAY worse than Jameis.
The New York Giants should trade for him. Idk how it'd work contract wise. But Daniel Jones obviously isn't working out. The Brown would be better served moving forward with Jameis Winston. The Giants would get a spark if they traded for Deshaun Watson. I don't think either team would win a Super Bowl or anything. But Jameis Winston deserves a chance. And Daniel Jones HAS to stop being the Giants starting QB.
The End.
