The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

[CT]

I've only just seen that about Kevin Cadle. Very sad, he was the man man on Sky for the NFL for quite some time.

Didn't realise he was 62, he looked younger than that.

I wasn't expecting the Raiders to get anything from last night's game. A real bonus

0.00 seconds on the clock when the play started and the Raiders got the winning TD, so I assume there was a flag against the Chiefs.

Brilliant throw from Carr to Crabtree for the TD. No chance of the DB getting to the ball

Brilliant for my fantasy team (Crabtree had done nothing up until then).

Back to back wins for Da Bears! Imagine how good we would be if we ever scored any offensive touchdowns.

Think the Packers could realistically not win another game this year. They look absolutely terrible without Rodgers there.

Cards @ Rams at HQ was pretty dire fare. Especially after Palmer left the game injured.

At least the alternative route out that via the A316 ampnd M3 worked great. Back home before midnight

Felt a bit sorry for the Cardinals fans, to not even have a field goal to cheer. Thought Rams would win, but not by that much.

Bears Defence hasn’t given up a TD in the last 2 games (Ravens TDs were from Special Teams).

[UK Redsox]

At the start of the game, the majority of the stadium as cheering for the Cards (despite the PS announcer keeping on about it being a Rams home game).

However, as the match progress and it was evident that the Cards were dire, the Rams support was more vocal. However, it should be said that the Rams weren't brilliant either.

Two very poor teams really.

Best news was that there was no successful 'Wave'.

Bad news was that the FKW who wore the full Washington outfit last year was back again. Even worse news was that this time he was FKW'd as a Washington Cheerleader

The Eagles look like the most complete team in the NFL so far this season. Very impressive on Offence and Defence.

Get to see the Browns (sans Thomas) against the Vikings next week. I fear it will be as competitive as the Cardinals Rams game.

Agree, Eagles look very strong. Watched a couple of long highlights of their games on Sky Sports Mix.
Two good QB's on show this eve, Wentz (Eagles) and Cousins (Redskins)

[AV82EC]

Sorry to interrupt, another few shocks in the college games not least Ohio State beating the Nittany Lions and Iowa State doing a job on TCU. SEC looking strong as usual. CFP rankings out Tuesday should be interesting with so few no defeat teams, can’t see Wisconsin being top 4 despite the 0.

First three Quarters were pretty good but then it was Cleveland being Cleveland
