NFL season 2012

Wow. Al Davis has died

Will be interesting to see what impact this has on the Raiders in the long term. Whilst he is a genuine Raiders legend, many fans and analysts believe that Davis has been holding them back for years with his very hands-on and abrasive style of ownership.

I have just properly studied and changed my fantasy team.
You boys are going to get blown away this week.

I am struggling on the dream team
Tonight i chose Vick over Rodgers that was a big mistake

I would go on the match-ups. Sanchez is facing a horrible looking defence who have also lost Jerod Mayo. Yes, Sanchez has some horrible days, but not generally against teh weaker pass rushes. When given time to pass, he has put up some very good games, and the Pats are showing no sign of getting a pass rush together. If you are still nervous, then keep an eye on whether Magold is fit to return to the Jets o-line. If he plays, that should be the final piece of convincing that Sanchez is teh better option.

Big Ben is a great QB, I really like him, but that o-line is just getting torn apart, and Ben is taking far too many hits. He's getting no support from his run game, understandably, considering mendenhall is coming off a 400+ touches season in 2010, and is running behind THAT o-line. Redman is decent cover, but is still not going to give Ben much rest bite from dropping back and taking teh pressure.

Meanwhile the Titans D has been under the radar a bit, but have put together some really good games this year. Plus, they will come at Ben hard and often, knowing that one more hit and he could be off the field again with that ankle injury.

Sanchez all teh way for me.

LOL, what do I know?

That's why I absolutely LOVE this game. From one week to another, you are on the edge of your seat as you just don't know who's going to win on any given week. Great week from Big Ben, and that's come from nowhere.

Amazing.

I Bloody LOVE this game I do! Just watched the final drive in the Texans/Raiders game, cracking entertainment and a nice finish for Oakland on an obviously emotional day

I don't like this alternative jersey of new england.

 

[P.S]

Well the Jags ucked themselves over again with a shocking second half performance AGAIN! 22 yard punt to set up Bengals winning TD then a disaster at centre for the last play

Missed your previous post and started Big Ben. What a performance!

It's one of those 'throwback' jerseys. I remember them wearing it when they got smashed by Mike Ditka's Bears in a superbowl back in the mid 80's

Broncos will be switching to orange jerseys for the home uniform from next year with blue as the alternative. Let's hope a return to orange crush will bring a change in fortune.

Has anyone else been watching RedZone on Sky this season? I think this is great - especially when your team is on the later games as you get to see a fair amount of your game without needing to pay for GamePass.

Will that be like the miami orange shirt? I loved that one!

We already have orange as the alternative uniform (orange with a blue inlay that runs from the armpit down the side seams). As it will be the home kit I wouldn't be surprised if they launch a new version for next season.

No adverts make Redzone amazing, and the fact that when you're on red button you can instantly switch screens just by pressing 1 or 2 without having to hit backup makes it well worth doing. Don't get me wrong, i know that the breaks in play make NFL what it is but when you're seeing important play after important play with no ads it does make it very difficult to want to switch back to the main game (unless its your own team obviously)!

I picked up Sanchez as my bye week replacement for Romo, and he did score 18 points, so I can't complain.

Go Lions

Not even the best team in their division.

Oh yeah, I can see that....... lol - 65 points when you actually changed your team beforehand must be some sort of record!

Maybe not, but are great to watch. Also, if you saw any of the Falcons vs Packers game, the o-line wasn't great against the Falcons pass rush, which hasn't exactly been great so far this season. It'll be interesting to see how they go about keeping Suh and Co. off Rodgers. That's gonna be a great game.

The give it away, to think I did actually think and put effort in, always my downfall.

Thanksgiving, I believe.
I think The Packers defence is scary, they just aren't putting it together, although they did seem to improve this week, eventually.
I can't watch the games, so am restricted to highlights, and analysis from the US podcasts I listen to.

Rodgers just looks unstoppable (note other reply, sorry AR).
At the moment it's as if he could hit any of the 5 receivers hands, without them even looking.
