Enjoyable game though.

Skins are up already against the Giants. Looks like a divisional win could be on this year.

Thoroughly enjoyed the game. Interesting crowd loads of Eagles fans, many from Philly, loads of anybody but Philly fans as well. Not sure the Jags have much of a fanbase, more polite encouragement. Love Carson, but he's got a long way to go to make it from a Top 10 QB as he currently is to elite like Brady and Rodgers. Neither of those would throw the pick he did.

Possibly an idea for those who forget/ miss a deadline so we dont have any missed weeks.

What is?

Yeah it was a decent 2nd half any way. Loads of Eagles fans round us too. Way more than Jags fans.

Skins win.

Bucs v Bengals is a superb game.

Thought I would do well this week but you lot massively eclipse me (apart from bear) also the best defence in the league ffs ravens

 

[Tony Towner]

Golden Tate to the Eagles, a 3rd seems a high price to play for a 30 year in the last year of his contract and who we can't afford next year. May help to scrape the play offs, but too banged up elsewhere to worry the Rams or Saints

 

[The Bear]

With Fuller out for the season the Texans have gone and traded for Demarius Thomas form the Broncos.

On Le'Veon Bell

Steelers still have until Nov 13th to sign him up to the Franchise Tag. But now they can't trade him, he's likely going to become a free agent no matter what, so I can't see them doing it. Unless they want to pay the increase for a Year 3 Franchise Tag, which is going to be over $20m apparently.

Don't forget your teams men.

[The Bear]

Yeah just about to do mine. I've usually had mine done since Tuesday and spent two days pissing about with it by now.

 

[James]

I’ve had another slow start. Ffs why cant i pick a good DST

 

[The Bear]

You had Denver a couple of weeks ago when they got 32 points!

 

[Tony Towner]

I had the 49ers for this week and then did my usual last minute shuffle up and swapped them for the Jets
