The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

And emptying a vat of Gatorade over the Coach.
Must be a tradition.

It's pretty common after a big victory in American Football.

Quite Roman of them to extinguish the leader at the point of victory!
He took it well.
He and key players interviewed afterwards all gave the credit for winning to God, which is something you don’t usually hear post match, over here.

[Simon Page]

Yet they never stop to wonder if God had anything to do with them losing. It must be great being God.

[Louzie0]

It has its moments.

That was an absolute demolition by the Eagles.

Scoreline flattered the Chiefs even more than 2-1 did Spurs

Aaron Rodgers to leave the New York Jets. https://www.bbc.com/sport/american-football/articles/cqx9n4l3pe3o

Jets can save 30M by cutting Adams, so wouldn't be amazed if he left too.

Russell Wilson signs one year deal with the Giants. https://x.com/espn/status/1904667859252298054

Surely that means Rogers is going to the Steelers? No doubt he'll drag out his decision, the attention-seeking fanny.

[ADVILLAFAN]

Maybe he could star in a TV show breaking down his decision about who to sign for?

Surprised he hasn't thought of this himself tbh.

Mongo gone. What a horrendous disease that is.

My youngest has picked this sport up at university over the last couple of years sadly at the cost of his rugby career, hopefully temporarily.  He's won a couple of varsities, quite good at whatever he does (O-line) & has been scouted by various teams at home & abroad, plus other, better universities offering funded Masters programs.  He's turning out for a local Midlands side of a Sunday.

We've watched quite a few games & it still takes the same eons of time as it does when you watch it on TV.  Decision making by the officials takes an age, & they even argue about the calibrated length of the chain.  When they've got someone to operate it.

The game does have quite a die-hard ground swell of support in the UK, but I don't know what they need to do to persuade luddites like me to enjoy it.  It's just not cricket.  Or football, or rugby...

Your son getting a multi-million dollar NFL contract would probably help.

Ironically when he started rugger rats as a portly 5 year old his nickname was ‘The Fridge’.
