NFL 2010 Season

[Skint Gull]

Just checked my NFLUK fantasy results for last week and i scored 93, which was actually wasn't too bad compared to a remarkably low highest score in the country of 127. Can only assume that like me, EVERYONE was expecting more than 2 points from Antonio Gates and Malcolm Floyd vs the Rams!

I've moved to 5-0 in my league. San Diego may be doing shit, but Rivers is a points scoring machine.

well, that was a bloody painful month following the bears.

we went to four games and our record is 1-3

the giants game was awful. o line was somewhere other than on the pitch. it was the worst offensive display i have ever seen. cutler was sacked nine times, fumbled, threw an interception and that was all before half time when he flaked out with concussion. then our second qb was nailed and we had to bring our third choice on. but the new meadowlands is an awesome stadium, great tailgating. shame the football spoiled it all for me.

we beat the panthers, purely by running the ball. it was proper bears football but the panthers were awful.

lost to seattle at soldier field - just never really got into the game, then lost to the skins this weekend - can't give the ball away that often and expect to win.

we had fun. but the bears were undefeated before we rolled up to watch and practically ruined the season for them.

ho hum. hopefully a better broncos team than the one that 'played' this past weekend turns up on sunday. don't think it'll be a good game though. shame it looks like alex smith is out.

If it's any consolation Starry sunday's game was just as hard for Skins fans to listen too. What an utterly bizarre game that was.

McNabbs comments after the game were quite telling..

Steelers for the Superbowl.

Best defence (currently) in the NFL

And also have the officials on their side like in the Superbowl in 2005...

Not that I am bitter or anything

 

[beardosh]

Is it almost time for a NFL International Series Roll Call?

I will be at Wembley on Sunday - Block 138 of Club Wembley right over the tunnel!

Anyone else?

Don't understand your point. Have I missed something?

I gave up on my Broncos deciding that at 52-14 midway through the third quarter it was time for bed rather than suffer the rest of a humiliating defeat.

I think the game could end up a high scoring game as both sides are so poor on defence at the moment.

Was right behing the posts last time around so I'm in Block 552 this year - wanted sideline but didn't want to be too low down so fairly near the front of the top tier this time.

 

[m20gull]

yep. will be there but couldn't tell you where. I'm not expecting a game of outstanding quality (unlike Saturday, of course!) but it will be the only live NFL game I get to see this year.

block 201 club wembley. half way line, by the royal box.

block 201 club wembley. half way line, by the royal box.

Did you get those when they first when on sale or as part of the US returns that went on sale? I tried Club Wembley when they first went on sale and couldn't get anything near the half way line. Most were down by the corners and not worth the money.

Don't understand your point. Have I missed something?

The Steelers had a contentious call by the officials last week when Big Ben fumbled on the goal line - they probably made the only call available to them as they couldnt see the ball but still there was controversy.

As soon as the words Steelers and Officials are named in the same sentence I am transported back to 2005 and the Superbowl - clearly Steelers fans don't see anything wrong with the officiating that day, but us Seahawks will never forget Ben coming nowhere near breaking the plane of the goalline, or us having a perfectly good TD ruled out (Among other ridiculous decisions).

It was five years ago, surely i should be over it by now?

Changing the subject to College Football (as I'm wont to do) Saturday sees the forces of goodness in the form of my beloved Florida Gators take on the classless inbred pieces of shit (the Georgia Bulldogs). Can all NSC American Football fans give a nice "Go Gators" in the hope that good prevails over evil? Three defeats on the spin and the wheels coming off in general have us Floridians a bit nervous. Tell me it's going to be alright!!

 

[Silver flying chariot]

Currently sitting in my denver hotel room after coming over to watch the oakland game on Sunday. What an absolute shower that was. Had a wicked week to make up for it. Denver is a wicked place. The stadium went mental at the broncos on Sunday. They were not happy at all. Nor was I after paying such a large amount to watch that shit. Flying back tomorrow and will be at wembley in my new Moreno top. Let's hope we turn up this week

Ta for the explanation. I haven't really followed NFL for the past 5 or so years just look for the results.
