This is New York Jets football in a nutshell.
Playing his college football for Western Kentucky, rookie wide receiver Malachi Corley made a massive mistake during “Thursday Night Football” for the New York Jets, and something that meme culture will cook him over for years to come.
Because get this: The former Hilltopper actually dropped a touchdown carry right before he officially went into the end zone. All of a sudden, a 19-yard TD run had turned into a touchback, with the circumstances coming on a reverse play even.

The referees ruled his dropped ball a fumble, with the Houston Texans taking possession in what was a 0-0 game in the second quarter.
To make matters worse for Corley, things had already gotten off to a bad start in the campaign for him. The only reason he was starting in “TNF” was because of Allen Lazard‘s chest injury.

You know, I figured something like this was gonna happen when I took the Jets‘ overs, and then I thought…
Eventually, Aaron Rodgers & Co. are going to have a good game, and some “Thursday Night Football” primetime magic could make that happen — they can’t always be dysfunctional, right?

This is the best correlation for “Thursday Night Football” that can be done on #PrizePicks, #Underdog, #ParlayPlay, etc., but value is going to be better on a sportsbook. I cooked mine on #HardRockBet.

Joe Mixon cashed no problem against the Jets, because of course he did, while the other three have been completely atrocious up until this point, because of course they have — I mean, for God’s sake, Breece Hall has NEGATIVE two yards at the time of publication, NEGATIVE TWO! How the funk do you get -2 receiving yards?
Such a dysfunctional football team, and why the hell did I take their overs again?
