Colts-Broncos Put The FOOT In Football! NFL Week 6 Preview

Indianapolis Colts kicker Chase McLaughlin vs Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus


Chase McLaughlin and Brandon McManus put on a show much to the chagrin of everybody else. Unlike Packers-Bengals last season, these kickers made (most) of their kicks. It's just that both offenses was so shitty they kept settling for field goals. hell, it was the first time a game between 2 QBs who played in a Super Bowl ended with neither scoring a TD. That's a random tidbit to come up with but it just shows how awful Matt Ryan and Russell Wilson are this season. So just like last year (same week!) I made a kicking highlight video + bonus content.


THE GAMES



2022 NFL Season Week 6 Washington Commanders vs Chicago Bears
Washington Stallions  17
Chicago Bears             23

This game probably won't turn into a field goal kicking contest but man the Bears offense and Commanders defense is trash!. And Ron Rivera had the nerve to blame Carson Wentz for why they're 1-4. Never mind that he's 5th in passing yards with 1,390 along with 10 TDs. He's also 3rd in INTs with 6 and times sacked with 20. He's not perfect but there's bigger reasons as to why they are at the bottom of the NFC East. And while we're at it, let's compare these teams.

NFC East team rankings
I just might get this post off in time before the game starts.


The Eagles have a great offense and defense. The Cowboys have a top 10 defense and their running game makes life easier for their backup QB Cooper Rush. And The Giants rely on their defense and rushing attack to win as well. While in Washington, all they got is their passing game. Ron later apologized but the damaged is already done. Once the coach starts burying his players to cover his ass, it's time for him to go. Especially if his record is barely over .500.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 San Francisco 49ers vs Atlanta Falcons
San Francisco 49ers   24
Atlanta Falcons            6

The Falcons got fucked over. I get that star calls is a thing in sports where star players get calls that others don't. I also accept that this is a passing league and the NFL wants their star QBs on the field so they make up stupid rules like flagging defenders for landing on them. But this roughing the passer penalty on Grady Jarrett was absolute bullshit. He didn't land on Tom Brady. He didn't drive him into the ground. He whipped him down like a Madden tackle animation.

Of course the dumbfuck ref Jerome Boger defended the call telling Greg Auman of The Athletic, "What I had was the defender grabbed the quarterback while he was still in the pocket and unnecessarily throwing him to the ground. That is what I was making my decision based upon." Like, how the hell else was he suppose to tackle Brady from that position? Grady talked about it on his radio show trying his best not to get fined for criticizing the refs. I won't say it cost them the game since they didn't do dick till late in the game but fans should chant "FUCK YOU REFS" for every bad call the rest of the season. Also Brady tried to kick him in the dick.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 New England Patriots vs Cleveland Browns
New England Patriots   13
Cleveland Browns          6

Is Jacoby Brissett the weak link on the Browns? Yeah, he's not expected to sling the ball but this top tier defense and running game is being wasted. The Deshaun Watson countdown is on.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 New York Jets vs Green Bay Packers
New York Jets             20
Green Bay Packers    31

So why aren't the Packers running the ball more? They're statically better at running than passing after all. And with all this complaining about the receivers, why not run the ball more? Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon has a combined 635 yards and 2 TDs this season while Jalen Hurts has 369 less yards but 4 more TDs! When 2 RBs are scoring less than a QB, you got a problem.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Jacksonville Jaguars vs Indianapolis Colts
Jacksonville Jaguars   28
Indianapolis Colts        16

The Jaguars brought shame to the people of Jacksonville by losing to a then winless Texans squad. This perfectly average team should win here but I wouldn't bet the farm on it.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Minnesota Vikings vs Miami Dolphins
Minnesota Vikings   31
Miami Dolphins        10

So what's going on with Teddy Two Gloves? He's still in concussion protocols even though he shows no symptoms and has a elbow injury. I knew Tua's injury would cause the NFL to make up some bullshit that would fuck things up like they always do. That's why the refs are throwing flags on routine sacks lately. They always have to overcorrect on issues and ruin games


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Cincinnati Bengals vs New Orleans Saints
Cincinnati Bengals      6
New Orleans Saints    13

Taysom Hill had a a stellar 4 TD game against the Seahawks Sunday. It's amazing what you can do when you play to your strengths, i.e running the ball. Let's see will they do the same here.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Baltimore Ravens vs New York Giants
Baltimore Ravens  30
New York Giants    20

Kickers, Punters and special teamers in general gets disrespected by the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Ray Guy was finally inducted in 2014 while Morten Andersen didn't get inducted until 2017. The majority of the K/P in the hall played other positions before football became specialized. With that said, Justin Tucker should be a first ballot HOF. He's the league's most accurate kicker. He holds the record for longest field goal among other records. It's just a shame that the HOF doesn't consider those who actually y'know, KICK the ball "real" football players.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs Pittsburgh Steelers
Tompa Bay Buccaneers   16
Pittsburgh Steelers            7

The Bucs got bailed out by the refs Sunday cause Atlanta definitely had momentum up to that moment. Now they play a Steelers squad that showed more fight in that shoving match than in the game vs the Bills. Both teams are bad on defense and at running the ball so this might be another grinder. Kenny Pickett may get better but Brady should really retire for good.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Carolina Panthers vs Los Angeles Rams
Carolina Panthers      3
Los Angeles Rams    26

After 5 games, we have our first head coaching casualty as the Panthers fired Matt Rhule. He was another college coach who was in over his head and couldn't cut it in the NFL. As he ponders what college he will go to, defensive passing game(?) coordinator/secondary coach Steve Wilks takes over as interim coach. I felt he didn't get a fair shot in his one season coaching Arizona in 2018. The roster was not great and he probably would have the same amount of success with Kyler Murray as Kliff Kingsbury is having with him.

Wilks won't have much to work with this season. The Panthers are 5th in defense but dead last in offense. Add on XFL Legend P.J Walker likely to start due to Baker Mayfield's injury and this could be a long season if a winning culture isn't instituted. Good luck with that David Tepper!


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Arizona Cardinals vs Seattle Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals   13
Seattle Seahawks   38

Speaking of Cardinals, Kliff might find himself out of a job if they don't make a deep playoff run. They have the #1 defense but everything else is average. It's like they have the talent but they keep getting in their own way. The Seahawks are no better but they at least seem competent.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs
Buffalo Bills              42
Kansas City Chiefs  17

Thankfully the Chiefs are a good enough team to overcome their own bullshit roughing the passer penalty. Chris Jones stripped the ball from Derek Carr before landing on him for the strip sack. Instead of a fumble, that fucktard Carl Cheffers flagged him ruling that "He gets full protection of all the aspects of what we give the quarterback in a passing posture. So, when he was tackled, my ruling was the defender landed on him with full body weight." Never mind that Chris braced himself so he wouldn't land all 300 pounds on Derek and he couldn't really move to the side anyways because HE FORCED A FUCKING FUMBLE!

When ESPN's Adam Teicher asked does the fumble negate the roughing the passer penalty, "No, because he still gets passing protection until he can defend himself". I hate these fucking refs. I also hate the rules committee and everyone who's responsible for these rule changes. I doubt robots would help and I won't leave like I did Nascar but FUCK THESE REFS!


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Dallas Cowboys vs Philadelphia Eagles
Dallas Cowboys          13
Philadelphia Eagles    17

Cowboys-Eagles is usually a marquee matchup but this is worthy of SNF with both teams actually being good. Philly should win this but the Boys will give them a run for their money.


2022 NFL Season Week 6 Denver Broncos vs Los Angeles Chargers
Denver Broncos            16
Los Angeles Chargers  13

"Let Russ Cook". That's all we heard to excuse him being traded from Seattle to Denver. After 5 games, it looks like Russ IS cooked. Their loss to the Colts was one of the worse displays of offense ineptitude I've ever seen. Thank God the Colts was just as inept or it would've been a blowout. Is he struggling because he's not as mobile as he used to? Is it because he has a baseball injury? Or is Nathaniel Hackett just a shitty coach? It's probably all of the above.


LAST WEEK   13-3
OVERALL      43-36-1
