    London Franchise

    There is no way a London team will succeed in my opinion. Sure people like the "event" element of the Wembley games but there isn't enough there to support an actual team. Looking at UK TV figures it's clear that there is a market here but it's a small one Top 5 Games - UK TV 1. Week 7 -...

    Clemson vs Alabama, who ya got?

    :) I think it was playing their tails off Tits would have been better though

    Burfict suspended .....

    Lucky it's only three. There is some footage of him hammering his knee into Roethlisberger's injured shoulder when they are on the ground

    If anybody tells you lucky win?

    Maybe they did. He ran to the right hash initially then instinctively cut to the left as he saw space open up

    If anybody tells you lucky win?

    A couple of other posters have mentioned it and it's an accurate analysis of the missed FG for me. The genesis of the final play was in the the earlier successful FG Sherman was within a fingernail of blocking it. That was in the kickers head, as he walked to the kick he would have been...

    Team of Destiny or Borrowed Time?

    All the remaining NFC teams should all be confident of making the Super Bowl, there's nothing between them The fact that we KNOW we can do it rather than think it should help when we're in trouble. Others might have doubt creep in

    Kam PI was BS

    Clever play by the Vikings for me. If you can't trick the defense then trick the officials. Rudolph goes looking for Chancellor and initiates the contact. Rudolph doesn't even look for the ball as it's not in the vicinity Officials don't really have any choice but the throw the flag though...

    Seahawks are going to win their next 7 games.

    I never thought we were a bad team but it did feel that events were conspiring against us. I said on here that we were still a good side but we weren't playing like one Personally I think we are as good as anyone going into the play offs and we have a decent chance

    LA relocation- St Louis, Oakland, San Diego

    What happens when a franchise moves in terms of the fan base? Is the newly located team supported mostly by new fans or do the old ones migrate? Or is it a mix of both? It happens very rarely in the UK. The Wimbledon football team moved to Milton Keynes but the fan base were furious and refused...

    Mike Pettine: Russell Wilson not quite among top tier of QBs

    I think this full post nails it. There is a resistance to admit that a mobile, running QB can be Elite RW might just change that for all time

    Have to admit, the giants scare me a little

    Just watching the game now. Their tackling is terrible this first half

    Bryce Brown Re-Signed

    Original tweet says veteran RB but he's only 24 when I've read about him just now - can you be a vet at 24?

    EPL 2015-16 Season

    I pay the equivalent of $150 a month for Sky Sports in the UK so I can watch Premier League - it's not been value for money these last two years as a United supporter! At least I get 5 NFL games each week on the same package

    Coldplay will headline Super Bowl 50 halftime show

    Foo Fighters are a good shout. I don't buy their music but they have some bombast and energy. The half time act should have that about them - they should be explosive Coldplay are just wet, angsty and depressing

    Coldplay will headline Super Bowl 50 halftime show

    Coldplay are awful. Over here they are the preserve of the middle aged people that were uncool as youths but want to appear 'alternative' now they are all grown up I would have expected a bigger act for Super Bowl 50

    R-E-L-A-X. (Packers vs Lions)

    Lions only had themselves to blame despite the bogus call. When they went 17-0 they starting playing completely negative, nervous football. They were more concerned with the clock than continuing with what got them in the good position in the first place. When they did try to pass they were...

    How Bad Is The NFL Right Now?

    Chiefs look like a reasonable side, they may finish with 10 wins

    EPL 2015-16 Season

    I think McLaren has gone in there and asked them to put more effort in. They've not liked it one bit and have given up on him, they are trying to get him sacked now He may come across as an oddball but he's an incredibly meticulous coach and won't accept passengers
