If 10 NFL Players Were Fast Food Menu Items

With the 2013 season underway, let’s find out who’s the reliable Big Mac, and who’s the Crown Crust Cheeseburger Pizza…

Carson Palmer = Subway $5 Footlong

Pretty cheap and won’t outright disgust you. But a deep and abiding inner sadness will fill your soul, as mediocrity beats into your gut week after week.

A dual threat that came out of nowhere in 2012 to save a franchise.

So, so good, only available on the West Coast, and nobody East of Las Vegas knows what it is.

Appears when you least expect leading to outsized expectations and inevitable crushing disappointment.

Not really good at anything, discontinued in the United States, and would be a big hit in certain parts of the Middle East.

Great, but you’re going to need about 50 of them before you’re finished.

Good for you but not really good for you, and pretty boring, plus when you’re done you won’t feel bad, but you won’t feel great, either.

Both leave you locked in a tiny room, shitting yourself.

Adrian Peterson = McDonald’s Big Mac

Consistently the most popular, and with good reason.

Tony Romo = Panda Express Entrée Meal

Unbelievably expensive for something that will make you sick and/or choke.
