NFL Thread 2017: Pats! Eagles! Superbowl LII!

[Rax]

Jack Del Rio carries his balls around in a wheelbarrow, some call to go for 2 last night instead of paying for overtime.

Recorded the Pats game so Im looking forward to seeing it tonight, I didnt expect much and getting that win is a big one, especially with the rest of the division losing their first game.

Their defence could not stop Brees all night, it made a whole lot of sense, but still a bloody brave call

Still think the Pats winning is a huge upset, but they had won the AFC East before the season started, not sure why you would worry about the rest of the division. Though the Dolphins did better than I expected (or the Seahawks are worst than I expected)

Game 1 - Titans lose at home.

It's going to be another fantastic season

Quite happy with the first set of results in general. Wentz looked good.

Too early to say whether that was Wentz being good or (more likely) the Browns being a shambles. Game was relatively close until the safety.

[Pancake]

Too early to say whether Wentz will be good consistently, sure, but it isn't too early to say he looked good in that game because the game has finished.

Both his TD passes were great; it wasn't as if he was dinking and dunking into the end zone. Hopefully he develops into a solid quarterback but as you say, only time will tell!

Wow the Rams were awful, I didnt expect them to do much this season but the 49ers arent exactly top of the class anymore so they should have gotten something out of that game.

Pretty cool that Twitter are live streaming Thursday night games now.

Did anyone watch? How was it?

I watched some of it on the app on my phone in bed. It's just the CBS Sports broadcast and the quality was really good. Apparently there's an app on the Xbox One now so I might download that and give it a try next week.

Jets were both amazing and awful, they should have destroyed the Bills, but somehow ended up with a close game. Their offence was amazing though, was worried about how tough the Jets schedule is, but now I am just excited to see how they play. Revis keeps getting burned though, he is not what he was and needs some help, if they get that covered then hopefully they are going to be a very good team.

Are some games definitely going to be blacked out on Gamepass?

They're selling it as you getting every single game live.

They have been for the last couple of years. Some countries do get every game live as they have no TV blackout deal signed, this used to be the case in Ireland but when Sky re did their deal they got the games blacked out. I would be surprised if they have changed this stance but Redzone is not blocked so even if the game you want to see is blacked out youll get to see some of it with Redzone.

Yeah, I noticed in the last section of the terms and conditions it said about some matches mightn't be able to be viewed if they were cancelled, rescheduled, there was an outage with their service, or some broadcasting contract prevented it. Signed up last night anyway, and I can watch blacked-out matches on Sky.

I hope the playoffs and superbowl aren't on the blackout, though. That'd be really shitty.

Getting caught up with the preseason Seahawks games with the excellent condensed format. Marshawn Lynch is clearly missed as a solid option for moving a guaranteed 3 yards forward to get a 1st Down. The really struggled to get points against the Chiefs. But dat ending. Out of nowhere.

Prepare to curse at the shittiness of it then.

Good news on this front.

Also, anyone who feels like watching the Seahawks game this evening, you only need to tune in for the last quarter. Nothing is going to happen before that

Saints 0-2.

Lady GaGa has been (unofficially) announced as the Halftime entertainment for the SuperBowl.

NFL now denying it though.

How's their P-P-P-Poker Face

[Rax]

Jimmy Garoppolo down with a shoulder injury.

Had enough of a lead on the Dolphins to get the win but a 4 day turnaround to the next game against the Texans spells trouble, he wont be recovered in time so it looks like Brissett will get the start. I would expect a heavy dose of Blount in that game but Darth Bill has pulled surprises before so Brissett could come out throwing like a maniac to catch the Texans off guard. Either way ium strongly considering staying up to watch it and dealing with the tiredness on Friday.

Ravens just about beat another shite team.

the most misleading 2-0 ever

i am concerned for the season
