Seattle and Minnesota await... I just want to beat The Cowgirls!! I can’t complain too much though, I had the sense to put a few quid on Elliott to score the first touchdown of the game.

Pity about the result but didn't expect any different. Yes, it's a pretty austere design by modern standards but does a good job of providing a good view for the spectators. It's got three levels and consequently they are closer to the playing surface than the Wembley 'bowl'. The tailgate parties were able to carry on after the game (unlike Wembley) and there was a decent atmosphere. OK, the Browns were the Browniest again and managed to make football look difficult for most of the game but there's a good team in there somewhere. (They just need to get some better players and an almost all-new organisation.) The moan about Twickers is the long queue for a shuttle bus back to the tube stations. Maybe if there's another game there I'll take a map and walk. Didn't get home until the last minute of the 'Boys/'Skins match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parked about half a mile away and once through Hounslow it was plain sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Orns Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Dolphins traded Ajayi to Eagles, for a 4th rounder!? Does that make sense?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erithacus Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Only recently noticed that the Bears TE Zach Miller suffered a horrendous injury against the Saints, damaging the popliteal artery in his left knee. Rushed to hospital, he was given emergency surgery to save his leg! Could have lost it without. Even more sadly for Miller, his one-hander catch for a TD was overruled on review.

Erithacus Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Eagles are for real, it seems! Who knew? That fourth-round pick trade for Ajayi looks good business, too. Denver are not up to full strength, but are being made to look poor in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Orns Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 How real are the Rams, for those who watch far more than me? Was reading somewhere over the weekend how McVay is already going into the HoF, certainly made a massive difference to them Saints still rolling, I keep waiting for the wheels to fall off, and whilst Bucs aren't no great shakes, it's another win.

Tough one in Buffalo this weekend, that might tell me a bit more For me, the Rams have high end players in prime positions & they are learning how to use those tools properly, along with seemingly having missed out on the injuries to key players like a lot of teams have had this season, they certainly seem to be in with a shout. As for your ‘All Saints’, I think your in the same position as everyone else, we’re all waiting for the wheels to fall off........ The Bucs seem to be able to scrape wins without their ‘big guns’ performing yet, can that carry on or are these ‘big guns’ going to kick into action & completely destroy all comers? Only time will tell. The one for me are The Cowgirls, will Elliott’s ban ever happen? Do they have enough if / when it does happen? I’d like to think not! And then there’s Brady & The Pats, they’ve still not really performed but they are doing enough to still be feared & are still the bookies favourite for the Super Bowl.

Wrong team there, I think, Tipps! Yeah, Cowboys are a funny one. Zek seems to keep getting away with it, whilst it's completely wrong, you have to admire their legal team in doing a good job there Thing is with the Saints, we've got a D all of a sudden. The O line has always been decent, if the D can steer clear of big injuries then who knows. I'm not suggesting we're going to win the whole show, but anyone avoiding injuries to key players this year is going to have a chance. Every week some big player is going down.

The Bucs have struggled mainly because Winston has struggled with an ongoing dodgy shoulder, they started the season ok but that injury in particular has halted them.
