Are the brains from futurama Intillect devourers? (self.futurama)

It’s no secret that the writers/producers of futurama in the first season were pretty into DND. In one of the anthology of interests where Fry asks what would happen if he was never frozen Gary Gygax shows up. There was a movie episode called Bender’s Game where Fry and the others get sucked into a DND world.

Now I’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate and I’m wondering if the brains, Nibbler’s mortal enemy, are actually intillect devourers from DND and the large brain Fry talks to is an Elder Brain. What do you all think?

Hot take: since the niblonians eat all the brains in that one episode, would they be the intellect devourer devourers?
