If the Packers lose this then Clay Matthews should never play for the team again. Tried to throw it away last week with a roughing the passer and has done exactly the same this week.

It was a BS call against Matthews.

Disagree. The players are well aware of the new rules surrounding bodyweight on those sort of hits on QBs. I think the new ruling is a bit laughable, but the players have to adapt.

Any of you heard the Vontae Davis story? Playing for the Bills tonight and just decided to retire at half time. Couldn't be bothered to even finish the game, just packed up and left.
Now that's a vote of no confidence in your team mates if ever I saw one.

49ers came roaring back in the third. Feel it's going to be a long season for the Lions. Again.

Impressive win for the London Jags. They look like serious contenders.

The QB’s feet in this play were already off the ground from the momentum from his (crap) throw. Clay got there a split second after. A shitty call and one that when the refs get re instructed won’t be called later in the season.

Difficult to know who will be more disappointed with the result in the end.  Guessing there could be a kicker vacency in Minnesota this week though😀

Maybe the Vikings could move for Cleveland's kicker? He seems good.

Absolutely loving having NFL back on as a nice distraction from the footy. Watched Giants at Cowboys and thought we (Cowboys) looked ok without being spectacular. Still think its a bad move cutting Bryant, the attention he gets makes so much space for the rest of the team. Also disappointed to lose the kicker Bailey (A Villa fan BTW!) NFL is brutal to players who sustain injuries.

Giants on the other hand look lost. Eli received no protection at all from his OL, no sacks, no picks by Defence and struggled with Dallas pass and rush games. Could be a long season for them...

After liking NFL for years, but not settling with a team, I've chosen the Jags as they are only 1 of 2 teams ive seen in the flesh. I did have a soft spot for the Browns, but they continue to be awful.

Wasn’t happy that Bailey was picked up by the Vikings, he’s a good kicker. Was hoping they’d go for Zane Gonzalez.

Giants O-Line was just dreadful. Cowboys should be decent, but not amazing this year and need a WR. Also need Demarcus Lawrence to stay healthy.

Cleveland Browns win their first game since Christmas Eve 2016.

Maybe it will no longer be a Factory of Sadness.

Great opportunity for Da Bears with Packers and Vikings both losing. Bet we fuck it up...

Phew!

That was nervy as Hell but great character, and after that nightmare first game we are top of the division! Gonna be a while before I'm able to get to sleep I reckon.
