    had to google it:

    In central Illinois, mid-western United States, “Fart in a Skillet” refers to a person‘s inability to stand still.

    ...who knew??

      The passing game was pretty much like a fart in a skillet against the Ravens. Very ineffective, inefficient, and evaporating quickly, especially in the red zone. How odd Fincter describes it this way. Not!

        More like a fart that precedes the giant dump that the WR corp left in the middle of the field.

              If Todd Haley were still the OC now, how good would you feel about a Super Bowl run going into this coming season? Just curious.
              if Haley was OC, we'd be 6-5

                if Haley was still OC, Ben would have retired.

                  and Ben would tell reporters to ask the OC after every loss.

                      Is he coaching anywhere in the NFL? College? Nope.

                      (High school OC....lol)

                          I still don’t really get this phrase. But I like it.

                          I picture Randy’s dad or granddad cooking breakfast on the weekend when mom wasnt home and instead of putting fat in the skillet, they just fart into it.

                          And I’m picturing it has to be a visible fart cloud so you can see it dancing around the skillet.

                          I figured you’d have to be Hunky or German and have had some kraut and beer in you to really get out the right kinda fart. Maybe Polish too for some pierogis and sausages or something.

                            absolutely... the only time they moved the ball when he was OC is when they went no huddle. Basically, when he WASN'T calling plays.

                            I honestly believe we'd have 2 more rings had they not fired Arians... they'd been to 2 SB in 3 years, with the final year being the Tebo fluke without Ryan Clark.... Then, TH came and they haven't sniffed it since.

                              It ain’t Fichther’s fault the receivers forgot how to catch, that Ben throws so many tips that the line can’t run block. But the playcalling sucks. We keep trying the same $hit that doesn’t work. It looks amateur. And it’s getting worse as the season goes on.

                              I’ve had enough of Fichtner. Even if it’s not mostly his fault. Someone should fall on the sword for this pathetic offensive performance.

                                But a 4th and goal pass to an offensive tackle that was just released from covid today, came in with no practice. That's all Fichnter.
                                Another? How about DWatt finally getting on the field at the goal line to block but where do they put him? Split out wide while the running back goes up the middle.
