Ah well, at least the Packers won again today.

Offense still mediocre at best but the defense stepping up again. Will need to get something going offensively at some point.

NFC north looking a strong division this year.

One of the best Ds in the league + Aaron Rodgers looks Super Bowley to me. Got Tuesday off for Da Bears against the [racist word deleted].

Some seriously shit kicking by the Bucs, there. Two missed extra points and an easy Field Goal and they lose by one. Why did they take a delay of game penalty? You should always get a 34 yarder, but 29 yards is even easier.

Yeah that was poor. Still had a time out, so could have ran the play to move the ball centrally.

Daniel Jones looked impressive.

The defence has been excellent. Offence started the last two games really well, then struggled badly when having to go off script. Hoping it will click and in fairness we've played two excellent defences in the Bears and Vikings, and a decent one in the Broncos.

Don't think Rodgers is the player he once was, but hopefully still good enough with a strong defence to contend.

UCLA come back from 32 points down in the second half to win a 130 point thriller over Washington State

https://youtu.be/JmBOvdO_8UA

Washington QB threw 9 touchdown passes and still lost.

That must be some sort of record.

When I heard about the comeback and final score, I assumed that this was one of those games with multiple OT periods, where the points pile up with hardly any yardage. However, all this happened in a regular 60 minute game. Bonkers

Eased up a bit in the second half, but that'll do. Big game against Vikings next and then it's Oakland/Los Angeles/Oakland/Mexico City/Winnipeg/London/Las Vegas Raiders at Tottingham.

They’ve got a team for sure Da Bears, the game next week will be one to watch against The Vikings. I’d like to see the Patriots play in the NFC North for a season. Can three of our teams make the play offs?

Three teams from the same division can make the playoffs. Within each conference, the four division winners and next best two teams make the post-season. No reason why you can't have three teams from the same division make it. It has happened quite a few times, most recently the season before last when the playoffs included the NFC South's Saints, Panthers and Falcons.

I've still not received my tickets for the Spuds games.

I checked my Ticketmaster account and followed the link to where you can check if tickets have been printed. There was nothing there.

I phoned up and was told that because I'm a Season Ticket holder, my NFL tickets aren't held in my main TM account. The place they're held does not provide the same level on information online as the main TM site.

Therefore, although purchasers of single games can monitor their tickets, ST holders cannot.

EDIT - finally turned up on Tue 1st

Bizarre. McGrath knows why they can't just email over a ticket. Solihull Moors can manage it so no idea why it's so difficult for Tottenham and Wembley.

That was a poor cheap shot by the Philadelphia defender. Whistle had gone and Williams was clearly stopped.

Very lucky not be ejected from the game.

Good start to the weekend, shame they couldn't score that many touchdowns against Green Bay when they were all playing for us... Need to capitalise on Sunday.

Reality check for the Packer defence who just couldn't stop the run.

Poor decision to throw the ball from the 1 yard line 4 times too. You have to run it at least once there.

On a side note, its good to see how the NFL is fucking up these pass interference challenges the same way the premier league is fucking up VAR. Both challenges (the GB one in particular) should have been overturned, and the game winning interception should have been brought back for PI too.
