The NFL thread

I wished we could have highlight show on the UK, much better. There is some highlight videos on YouTube, just search NFL highlights then filter results to this week only

What a game the giants had this week! It was the first week for me where NASCAR and NFL have clashed and must admit I had no problem turning the game off to watch the racing after an awful first half! Flick back over during some ads and suddenly the Giants have come alive in the 4Q. A very frustrating performance in some respects that backs have to be against the wall before they start playing, but equally it just shows that Eli can never be written off. I mean 295 yards in the 4Q, that's just ridiculous.

Also loved the sunday night rams / redskins game - was not really fussed about it but thought I would to see what the fuss about RGIII was but really was a great game. Although the redskins looked good with the ball (and RGIII reminds me of Vicks in his prime) the Rams deserved it picking apart the defence.

Almost felt sorry for that WR fool that got the personal foul in the dying seconds - must have been pretty lonely for him in the locker room!

That was a great game I was with you I wasnt looking forward to it but it was great. Danny A(not sure on his surname) was amazing for a little guy. I felt sorry for him to I really dislike Finnagan esp after his big spat with Andre Johnson who never gets in anyone's face. Still stupid to throw the ball though.

Danny Amendola. He was in the studio covering the last Super Bowl for the BBC. He screwed his elbow up in the first game of last season and was on IR for the year.  In Bradford's rookie season he was Sam's go to guy so was sorely missed last year. Got him in my Fantasy Team (Drafted late on) and is proving his weight in gold thus far...

As a Rams fan it's nice to see us competitive again. 2 very close games to open the season. None of this land slide losing like the last 5 seasons. Looks like we've turned the corner at last and it could be a cracker come the 28th Oct against the Pats.

Injuries are once again building up though.....

Yes, Bradford looked good the other night as well...... Should be an interesting season for your guys

Have not got my tickets sorted for the game yet either...... There are a couple of yanks from Boston in my office and one of them has a bunch of club seats so seeing what he is going to do with them! Otherwise will def be picking one up - there are normally a lot floating around just before the game

Yeah he was pretty good in the studio looked like he actually understood Carlson's humour too Haha. I really like him, reminds me of Wes although they are basically same type of player. Nice to see Bradford not seen many full games with him.

And you're not likely to see him in many more games if he takes a beating like that again this season... (Sacked 6 times @ Chicago)

The Rams OL is just the pits... Same old injuries and patchwork quilt year after year.. 1st 2 Picks in the 2013 draft have to be O-Linemen. I DEMAND IT.
