The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

[Meanwood Villa]

I'm going Falcons, Vikings, Patriots, Steelers.

Rematch of last year's superbowl but the Falcons don't get close this time.

Falcons, Vikings, Patriots, Steelers

Patriots v Vikings Superbowl.

Vikings to win a war of attrition.

Having been to all but one of the regular season London games, I’m looking to cut back.

I’ll be going to the Raiders game but I’ve already done a deal to sell my PHL @ JAX ticket.

Not sure yet what I’ll do about TEN @ LAC.

Jags is the best game to go to. Was looking forward to it until I realised I'd have to go with my brother.

Divisional round this weekend - who do you have?  (mine are in bold)

NFC:
Falcons @ Eagles
Saints @ Vikings

AFC:
Titans @ Patriots
Jaguars @ Steelers

Hard to disagree with those choices.
I cant see the Tennessee  beating New England. Saying that I couldn't see them beating Kansas City (If Kelce hadn't gone off I don't think they would have)
I think the other three are pretty hard to call and could go either way.

Fair to say none of us saw the Eagles doing it so well done to them.

I wore my Philly t-shirt yesterday, must be a lucky charm.

I watched the first half of the Eagles game last night - probably the first concentrated viewing of a game since I lived there in the 80s.

Two thoughts:

- How easy it was to become re-absorbed into the game and tactics. That was wonderful, even though I knew no-one.
- How incredibly tiresome the breaks in action were. I was used to it in those days (no choice really).

Was also reminded that I went to an Eagles game that was one of the first (if not the first) starts for Randall Cunningham at Quarterback. I lived in semi-rural Delaware (Dover) and the general opinion of my work mates was that Cunningham would crash and burn, as a black man wouldn’t have the tactical nous and coolness of thought to be a Quarterback. NB The local radio played mostly Country...

Massive td for steelers there, badly needed.

JAX stretch the lead back to two scores

Wow.

What an end to the Vikings vs Saints game

[cdbearsfan]

Would've won £156 if Saints had won.

It's fair to say I didn't enjoy that last play.

That non tackle will haunt that Saints player for the rest of his career you’d think.
