Wish I knew.... it's been a real pain since C4 packed up... American Football is the only thing I really want Sky for, and it seems a bit excessive to pay 30-odd quid a month for just the one thing (though doubtless there' be other things I'd like!) I'd like to see the Redskins go well, but that division has always had several equally good teams in it. Unless they've been hammered in the draft, I imagine Rams'll show again.

Cheers

Deprived

I'm a Green Bay fan, so the heart is with them, but we'll have to see how the new WRs work out. Driver and Walker had pretty good games, so fingers crossed.

I've put money on the Saints and Jets, both each way bets. Not necessarily the best teams in each conf, but at 1/2 the odds I think they're worth a punt. I think the 49ers look pretty good, but the Pack will still beat 'em in the off-season.


Brett, we love you!

Unhappy

When are the Redskins ever going to win anything again?

I reckon Patriots have a good season...

Wow. After the 1st possesions end up as punts, I'm ready to hit the beer to spare me the pain. What a 2nd half - fantastic action. No wonder I'm knackered this morning

Plenty of time to go 2-14 yet though

Giants kick the Ram's *** as well. Bookies had them down as massive pre season favourites and they are 0-2.

Tell me about that late finish! Was at a mates so didn't get to bed until 0200. Alarm went off at 0545 and that was only cos I'd put it back 15 mins!!

Was worth it though - an exciting game (well from half time onward.)



(I know I've a bet on the Saints, but they didn't have to beat the Pack )

Watch out for the BRONCO'S

Griese has eventually got the wake up call following last Sunday's near miss from being withdrawn against the Rams.

I'm very surprised to see the Saints 2-0, I actually had 4 out of 5 results correct now on Gameday 1 & 2 but both times the Saints blew it for £50 Now I will take them to win this week and I bet they blow it again
