NFL is back!!

[Skint Gull]

Sounds quality Paddy, I'm jealous and must make an effort to get over and see a game sometime!

What time are people planning on getting to Wembley on Sunday? I'm probably not gonna be drinking but wanted to soak up some of the atmosphere again so was gonna head to the Sports Pub at Wembley again for about 2?

Oh and do the clocks change on Sunday cos KO is 5pm?

 

[Starry]

was a great weekend, skint gull.

we got tickets to the tailgate thing and will pop along to that around lunchtime i think and pay stupid money for coors light and hawt dawgs. was quite good fun last time though with a real mix of fans from right the way across the nfl.

my son is a stereophonics fan so wants to be in his seat in plenty of time to see them do the pregame.

yes the clocks go back one hour at 2am on sunday. must remember that!

Weather is looking better than last year at the moment. Hopefully getting there about 3ish, just as the gates are opening, so we can get to our seats and then pay silly money for drinks and food inside

You don't want to pay silly money for Drinks inside, it'll be bloody CARLSBERG!

oh dear

 

[Starry]

well, that was good then.

far better advert for the nfl than last seasons dismal affair.

 

[JJ McClure]

Yep, good game to watch, with some good TD catches. The Charges defence looked pretty cluless at times against the Saints passing game, and they gave away an unbelievable amount of penalties.

 

[Skint Gull]

Agreed, miles better game than last year, thoroughly enjoyed it!

Penalties definately cost the Chargers big time, you can't have that many penalties and expect to win the game! The fact it was so high scoring I think was due to 2 decent quarterbacks with decent protection, but more than anything the lack of Blitz plays by both defences, I think I can only remember 2 or 3 in the whole game with no sacks.

Fingers crossed that next year has 2 similar teams!

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

oh dear

I drank the Tetleys @ £3.80 which was horrible, had some lunch in the local Wimpy which was serving cans of Stella with every meal, which I found amusing, game made up for the lack of quality beer, another quality day out, cannot wait for nexts years lets hope its sunny for once.

What did you make of the tailgate Starry? 1hr queues for beer didn't really endear it to me!

Giants against the Cowboys just kicked off. While no longer the game of the year in NFC East it's still an important game. If the Giants win it puts them at 7-1 and Dallas at 5-4. The more the Cowboys lose the bigger the meltdown. Prediction - Giants to bury the 'Boys 27-10

only just seen this, sorry. we had a quick peek around but had the children with us who were getting cold and wet, we gave up once i had made all the kids get their pictures taken on the full size bears kits/pads/models in the merchandise tent. we were in the stadium early but were using club wembley passes so food/drink wise it worked out ok.

stayed up last night to watch the jets at the pats. the jets were 18 points up at one stage and managed to throw that away. cassel threw for moss with one second on the clock to take the game into over time at 31-31. then feely won it for the jets with a field goal. was a good game. bleedin' knackered now.

my bears are at green bay this weekend. going to watch it with my brother on the tv instead of us all crowding around the computer for the gamepass coverage. should be a good game.

 

[Starry]

where are the rest of you nfl fans these days?

that was a bloody shambles last night from us. green bay rolled all over us. can't be arsed to say anything more about it. fed up.

10-0 for the titans though. i was looking down the afc standings a win next game and they will have a four game advantage with five games to go. looking good for them.

nfc north we're all 5-5 apart from detroit. not sure we'll last the pace now, not enough ideas. orton looked so good earlier in the season and now he looks like he is out of his depth.

oh well.

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

Giants still top of NFC East after a 30-10 win over the Ravens. One odd result - Eagles and Bengals tying 13-13. Draws just don’t happen – well not for the last 6 years anyway, the yanks just don’t know what to do with them. Good game tonight at 8.30 on ESPN – Browns against the Bills.

 

[thedonkeycentrehalf]

My patched up Broncos are still in there after back to back, fourth quarter comeback wins on the road. Watched the Miami defeat in a Florida bar surrounded by Dolphins fans which wasn't good. Billy Mays has gone into hiding after the Jags defeat to the Bungles. He was at the Titans game yesterday and was confident that the unbeaten record would go - ho hum.

 

[itszamora]

I'm getting quite worried about the Chargers - we're 3-6 now and can only really afford one more loss (if that) to even get a wildcard spot. Not good considering it's basically the same team apart from Merriman and Lorenzo Neal that got to the AFC Championship game.

 

[Billy Mays]

With all due respect to my long standing friendship with the Donkey Centre Half - how can I put this? Bollocks would seem to do it justice.
Maintain the Titans are not that good and look forward to their demise at the first opportunity in the play-offs. "Football" season is all about the peerless Florida Gators from this point. 56-6 win on Saturday with only The Citadel (little more than a practice game) and poor hapless Florida State to come before The Crimson Tide of 'Bama get murdered in the SEC Championship game on December 6th. If the Gators don't win a second National Championship in 3 years come January my name is not Clever Jack.

Oh one last thing the Broncos are shit.

 

[chobby]

Oooo, almost, come on Raiders!!! Oh well there's always next season

i don't think the titans are that good either, i think on the whole the other teams are weaker (injuries etc.) and in turn that has made the titans seem better than they actually are.

gutted to have not been out for an ncaa game this season. usually try and get to two. my brother is over next weekend for the kansas city/mizzou game (we're tigers) but i just couldn't work it out to make the trip. we're 9-2 which is pretty much as i would have expected. we taped and watched the whole gators game on saturday night, i think january will be interesting. i think texas tech might be there or thereabouts.
