The OFFICIAL 2015 NFL Thread

[Fignon's Ponytail]

My boss, a big Pats and Brady fan, says that for a while all non-Pats fans will probably view every Pats win as suspicious...

As the Steelers pick up the Patriots radio commentary in their headsets for the first half....Hmmmm ;-)

Seriously though, Good to see the NFL back - even better to see Pittsburgh start with a loss! Mind you, with the mess my Browns are in at the moment it wont be long until we are propping up the rest of the AFC North again!

For those without Sky and Gamepass, I signed up to a site called USTV Now last night, had full HD broadcast of NBC on there and managed to stream the game on my iPad fine, even using apple Tv to watch on my tv. you get a 45 day free trial in HD, after this you get limited channels for free in lesser quality. No VPN needed either.

Could be an option for some of you that don't have access to watch the games NBC and CBS may be broadcasting.

From what I watched between naps, the Steerlers missed a few opportunities. Scobie missing two field goals didn't help their cause.

That's what happens when you trade a kicker from the Jags.

 

[Southwick_Seagull]

A lot of self inflicted mistakes from the Steelers last night. The two missed field goals, not getting 7 from 1st and goal on the 1 yard line, the attempted trick play on the first drive, leaving Gronk wide open, at one stage only having 10 players on the field on defence and Tomlin having pretty awful clock management (again). That being said it was always going to be tough going into New England, especially after the last week and fully expect us to bounce back next week at home.

As a Steelers fan, it's going to be a fun season. Dodgy defence but when Bell and Bryant come back, the talent on that offence is frightening.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

The lack of coverage on Gronk was scandalous.

Am hating the fact our game is a Monday night, I can't wait anymore!! Although tbh I have zero expectation of us beating the Eagles!

 

[Shatner's Bassoon]

Anyone fancy doing a survivor pool if I set one up? Might start it from next week as obviously it's a bit late for this week.

For those who don't know, you have to pick a team each week. If they lose, you're out. Can only pick each team once.

Our secondary is terrible, has been for sometime now.

The front 7 looks a lot better with Shazier dominant and Dupree adding some much needed rush.

That's a bold strategy cotton, let's see if it pays off...

Very strange that Boykin didn't see a single defensive snap last night, not seen any explanation as to why.

I don't know if this is already fixtures, but some people were bemoaning the loss of NFL coverage to SKY, and didn't want to fork out for SKY or GAMEPASS.

I noticed that pick tv will be showing a game a week, I imagine this was the Eurosport slot. My Virgin box is showing a game tonight stating at 17.30 on channel 123.

Freeview (11), Freesat (144), Sky (152), Virgin Media (123).

NFLUK is showing it as the Packers v Bears

and its a free channel

I am up for this

Ok, that makes five of us. I might set it up as a public group after Monday's games. Doing a private group with so few participants might mean it's over very quickly!

The Pick TV channel is actually showing the SKY coverage for free now

I'm up for this too. If you're short on numbers I can ask my brother to join.
