Thanks. I realised searching 'NFL highlights' on YT does actually deliver the result I was looking for!

I'm not used to a search function that works 😉

Yeah, that could get tedious.

In between the long periods of nothing happening – you can drink beer! Lots of beer!

Especially as most American beer is basically water cosplaying as a beverage with alcohol in it.

however it’s getting tedious when everytine Kelce touches the ball the camera pans to Miss Swift in the VIP area

True enough in general, but I watched that on the game pass "game in 40" option and I can't remember them wasting a shot on her. A game that can definitely drag a bit watched as a full replay (even using the "without ads" option) is positively hectic when you distill 60 minutes of actual play into 40 minutes screen time!

I am ready for another season of disappointment by being a Raiders fan. At least they are consistent in being under achievers each season. Chiefs are are already looking impressive, they should just hand the AFC West title to them at each season opener  and not bother waiting until December 🙂

I love the guys behind the end zone hugging and Dan Quin skipping across the field

5-2 so far this season. The Giants (2-5) up next for us, can I hear the playoffs beckon in the distance?

He's on the practice squad with Jacksonville.  He's making $200k tax free and doing alright with the ladies out there so he's not coming home just yet.

I know, 5-2 is unbelievable and Ive been a fan since '82 and the following championship runs. Not taking anything for granted though

Well the playoff picture is set. Ravens- Steelers looks like the tastiest game. For once I think it's also not going to be a KC forgone conclusion.

Having been a Skins/commanders fan since the early 80s it's great to see them back in the post season and on our day we have a chance against the Bucs but further than that looks difficult

I suspect that a 3 week rest for the first team is going to leave them a whole lot fresher for winning the three games necessary for a third staright win.

Not sure Bal vs Pit will be that good. Divisional rivals and all that but surely it's Bal all day isn't it? .... Pit are on a horrible losing streak and LJackson is on fire.

I think WSH v TB and MIN vs LAR are the ones to watch .... on the basis Chargers (my team) are going to smash Houston.

Whos up for a little post season game ?

Pick the winning team: 2 point for wild card win, 4 points for divisional, 6 for conference, 12 for SB.

Publish you picks on here (you can edit til mid day on the first day of the round... so 1200 this Saturday for Wildcard round)

Honest marking of your own scores.

Here are all the Wild Card games:

LAC @ HOU

PIT @ BAL

DEN @ BUF

GB @ PHI

WSH @ TB

MIN @ LAR

BUF

PHI

TB

LAR (this might change?)

I'll be following the Vikings as backup team, since the 49ers are not in contention. (facepalm emoji).

Although... ESPN have the Vikings at 9.6% chance of reaching the Superbowl.

I don't know enough to predict games.

Is it just me who thinks the international games suck?

When you go to a proper NFL game you want to eat a catfish po'boy outside the Superdome, freeze your arse off tailgating at Lambeau or get abuse hurled at you at in Philadelphia.

The international games are sterile affairs watched by people wearing NFL caps and neither team wants to be there.

I don't either.

Go commanders! Enjoyed watching that. The Bucs certainly like the pass rush and Daniel’s likes to rush. A few brave 4th down calls that could have come back to haunt them but they got away with it. The last kick…….an inch the other way and I would be crying into my cornflakes this morning.

I woke up at 5am and checked the Lions-commanders score. Was not expecting that!

What a great result. Watched the highlights earlier and it looked a decent game. 1 match away from the Superbowl. I think it will be the Eagles up next for us so not holding my breath but after last nights result anything could happen.

Gutted! Really wanted the Lions to get to the Superbowl (nothing against the Commanders). In the absence of this:

GO BILLS!! (Guaranteed to lose now)

I'd have rather we were playing LAR but a limping Hurts might be better. Just need to sit on Barkley

I saw the result earlier.   Used to watch as a teenager,  got into it in 86 neat the end of regular season and started following Washington as they seemed exciting,  went on a run, got a wild card spot and possibly azgmae further (can't remember)  I do remember the superpower win the following year and again in 91.  Drifted away from it when I went to university and iirc Channel 4 lost the coverage.   I've followed a little more over the last few years due to watching Netflix stuff like last chance U, QB, and Receiver.  Currently watching Aaron Rodgers Enigma.

Anyway, great to see Washington win but bittersweet the lions losing, I'd warmed to Amon-Ra from seeing the Netflix stuff.  In fact I wish premier league football players learnt the respect most of the NFL players show!  Could Washington be this year's fodder for Mahone in the superbowl?

Good game last night... Berkeley was outstanding but Stafford still could have won it on the final drive.

I'll be rooting for Philly, my lads team. They are excellent up front, on both side of the ball and will be too much for Wash.

Bills to finally beat KC ... man I hope so, but if they don't, please let KC's win be without any perceived bad ref calls.

Another brilliant weekend of football.

I'd like to see KC getting beaten, I just don't think they have played that great this season.

The weather had quite the impact towards the end of the Eagles game, an excellent contest. Kinda felt for Lions RB Gibbs who had a stand out game.

Been really impressed with Washington, their offense had a really strong game

I think it will be an Eagles vs Bills Superbowl, and while I think the Eagles would win, I would like the Bills to win that matchup. But, as a Commanders fan I would love them to get to the superbowl and hopefully face the Bills as we know how our last Superbowl vs the Bills went………

It looks like they know exactly how much to put in to get the win for every game. The Bills had a spot of luck that The Ravens didn't turn up to play their usual game.

So, the season has kicked off. It's nice that CH5 has free to air live coverage but not sure that in studio games thing is working for me. Still, free NFL 🤷‍♂️

The score for commanders v giants has popped up on my phone....a sign I'm starting to follow it again i guess!  Go Daniels.

Yeah, it's the price to pay for free to air full game coverage.
Along with Sam Quek... 🤦‍♂️

Daniels steered them to a good start.  Commanders have got to be one to watch this season.  Deebo coming in and Daniels with more experience.... should be a good offence.  I'm following as I used to be a redskins fan,  but not following super close.... yet.

Don't follow the game,but recently a friend said that the Netflix doc on the Dallas Cowboys,is well worth a watch.

Yes,  the Netflix on the cowboys is good watching.  I wish the Lewis family would take note.....performance on the pitch is crucial to growing revenues of the 'business '  (I'm a Spurs fan)

It's called 'America's team'.   

I also recommend all the last chance U stuff, (Laney college seasons are the best,  but all good) and the 'untold' stuff such as swamp kings.  These give a good understanding of the layers of college football that support the nfl.   It feels like such a good system.

Must admit, 'America's sweethearts ' also worth a watch (follows the cowboys cheer leaders).  If you go down that rabbit hole, 'Cheer'  is a cross between laney last chance U and America's sweethearts.

Checking my watch list...SEC football also excellent (about the south eastern  college league, the layer immediately below nfl), also 'quarterback'  and 'receiver'.... about some of the nfl stars.

So what happened in week 2?  All I picked up is that Commanders were roundly beaten on Thursday night and maybe aren't the contenders yet,  and that the chiefs lost.  At 0-2 people are looking at the chiefs and beside mahone asking who is a superbowl worthy player?

Exciting ending to the Eagles v the LA Rams with the Eagles special teams stopping two field goal attempts, including one in the last few seconds which would have won it for the Rams, and running the ball back for a touchdown.

Unbelievably the Chargers won a game they shouldn't have. It's normally the other way around, they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

But they scored a late TD, the defense held Denver to a 3 and out and then the special teams kicked a FG in the dying seconds..... Perfect.

3 and 0  ..... I've not seen for 20+ years

Philly look very very good..... 33 total yards offense in 1st half and they still go on to win!!
