Cards In The Pros: Week 1


Hey, after college football at Louisville, some guys continue to play football and get compensation to do so.  Here's how those guys did this week:

David Akers (San Francisco 49ers - K) - 4/4 field goals, 3/3 extra points, 15 total points.  So, ya. 

Gary Barnidge (Carolina Panthers - TE) - DNP

Brock Bolen (Jacksonville Jaguars - FB) - No stats, only play I saw he was badly overthrown on a crucial 3rd and 5 on a comeback route.  This is 100% true.  #kragged

Deion Branch (New England Patriots - WR) - Monday Night Football.

Michael Bush (Oakland Raiders - RB) - Monday Night Football. 

Harry Douglas (Atlanta Falcons - WR) - 2 catches for 10 yards. 

Elvis Dumervil (Denver Broncos - DE) - Monday Night Football (against Bush's Raiders).

William Gay (Pittsburgh Steelers - CB) - 1 solo tackle (team got humiliated)

Breno Giacomini (Seattle Seahawks - OT)  - No pancakes as far as I can tell.

Chris Johnson (Oakland Raiders - CB) - Monday Night Football.

Brandon Johnson (Cinci Bengals - LB)  - DNP

Amobi Okoye (Chicago Bears, yup, - DT)  - 1 sack, which I coincidentally caught live and had no idea that it was he or that he played for Chicago until the announcer said "Okeye with the sack!"

Johnny Patrick (New Orleans Saints - CB)  - DNP

Bilal Powell (New York Jets - RB)  - DNP (I know this game is currently on, but I saw on Twitter he wasn't playing tonight and IF IT IS ON TWITTER, IT IS TRUE, SO DON'T PUT ANYTHING UNTRUE ON THERE BECAUSE I WILL ACT IN RELIANCE ON THAT TWEET TO MY DETRIMENT)

Chris Redman (Atlanta Falcons - QB) - DNP

Kerry Rhodes (Arizona Cardinals - Safety)  - 1 sack, 7 tackles (5 solo), 1 complete burn by Cam Newton for a TD and he started looking around like he thought there was backside help but it's like, HE'S the backside help as a safety I thought?

Jason Spitz (Jacksonville Jaguars - OL) -No stats.

Byron Stingily (!!!) (Tennessee Titans - OL) - No stats.

Eric Wood (Buffalo Bills - Center)  - No stats but big win for the Bills, I've been led to believe.

 

I don't care about your fantasy team.

Sorry

I’m still too sad about Chicken Knowles.

Gary Barnidge is on the IR. Broken ankle.

Also, its Okoye. But thanks for this, I was hoping someone would keep up posted on the old players.

It seems like half the Cardinal players in the NFL are playing on Monday this week.

Can we do another one of these on Tuesday?

If I have time.

Maybe I’ll just edit this. Maybe it will become a Tuesday regular feature. Maybe I will never write one of these again.

The uncertainty will be what keeps you coming back here, day after day. That and panda videos.

I love panda videos! they make my day.

They say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds.

Not even kidding about this...

Had a project in training at work where we had to make a golf device and play a course. Our team name was “Team Panda Swag” and the name of our project was “Golfing device to complete a course (aka Swag it to the Hole).”

If I’m ever in a band, it will be called Panda Swag and my first single will be “Swag it to the Hole.”

No.. just watch the game.

Just kidding… though it is much easier if we can just look at the box score for one game.

"I don't care about your fantasy team. "

I have three of them and don’t care about them, either. I love my friends and family but wish they didn’t like FF and always need a 10th or a 12th. This year I am determined to be a good player and keep my line-up up-to-date, but not give a crap about the fantasy outcomes

Are obviously not playing for money.

Yeah - but if you are in the Eastern time zone

it won’t be starting until like 10 your time. Oakland v. Denver is the late game
