The NFL Thread

Invites for the new league and weekly contest sent out. Hopefully it all works smoothly.

I think I am the most average person at this game, plodding my way to a third placed finish.

I had a go at some of the games on DK this week. Mainly the 'pick em' games and managed to get a win too............a whole $0.50 which was double the entry fee and you had to finish in the top 50,000 from a pool of 1,000,000. But a wins a win.

Nice! My brother and I are doing QPR Saturday then the game on Sunday if you fancy meeting up for a beer mate

Could well do so. I'll be with the BiL and the father in law, so I'll have to play it by ear. Will let you know once I know where we're sat.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Don't get on a bus with Vis and take his advice on when to get off because he "knows London".

Ok mate, let me know

Sage advice from someone who knows? :icon_lol:

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Let's just say we had to walk a fair bit further than was necessary.

IT HELPED US TO WORK UP A THIRST.

Can't wait for the weekend - get to see the Vikings play - last time they came and played the Steelers it was about 6 months before I properly got into the NFL.

Heading down tomorrow with a few mates and making a proper weekend of it and meeting other Vikings fans in the Barrow Boy, should be a good weekend and the Vikings should win. Especially now the Browns are without Joe Thomas and Miles Garrett.

 

[The Bear]

I just hope it's not another blowout and hugely one sided or to nil. I've seen enough of them this season!

 

[Johnny75]

I think the Browns will struggle to score a TD again. They're shocking.

 

[The Bear]

Yes they're utterly awful. They never seem to improve with draft picks either as they somehow screw those choices up.

 

[Deano]

I know what you mean, need a competitive game in London really this year, obviously for selfish reasons I want a blowout for the Vikings - I think the Browns are going to struggle to put up to many points the way the Vikings defense has been playing. Griffen and Hunter could have a field day on Kizer without Thomas at tackle.

 

[Johnny75]

That's the bit I can't work out. Even the Jags who were abysmal a few years ago have turned it around yet the Browns never do.

I started supporting the Browns in the late 80's when they were decent,

As decisions go, that's about as bad a choice as I have ever made in my life!

 

[The Bear]

I have a spare ticket for the Vikings v Browns game on Sunday if anyone is interested. Middle tier and right near the 50 yard line. They're great seats. Available at face value - £90

 

[The Bear]

Punts + Johnny still to put their team in this week.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Put this on BBC2 and within 10 seconds I see why the Browns are wank. 3rd and 8 and a stupid pass interference play gifts a first down to the Vikes. There was plenty of time to try and make a sensible defensive play but no, the defender just whacks the receiver in the back about a second early. Nonsensical play.

BTW - Redskins against our great friends from Dallas tonight. Hope we smack the shit out of them.

Shhhhh I need to catch up points...
