Gamepass didn't auto-renew for anyone because they switched platforms, right? I'm not about to buy it twice?

Mine has not renewed either, they are offering a weeks free trial to me, so yeah I think the auto-renew is off. Not sure I want to watch the Jets this season, plus I will be at the 4 Wembley games, so that's a big chunk of the season gone, so wondering if I should renew or not atm

Decent opening show. The BBC's coverage is pretty much my only exposure to the NFL, but I really enjoyed the coverage last season, and it seems like this year'll be pretty much the same, which is great. Looking forward to the season starting now. :datass:

Over the last few years I've only really watched a few of the playoff games and obviously the Superbowl but I want to try and follow this season a bit more, so I've set this for series record, as well as the NFL This Week show on Tuesdays. I quite enjoy the BBC coverage of the NFL, the presenters/pundits work really well together. They're more entertaining than the majority of football pundits at least.

Thank strawberry float preseason is over. No more small-time broadcasters handling the games. Seahawks @ Raiders didn't even have the lines on the field. :dread:

For Sky customers with their Sky VIP app, they're giving away free tickets to the London games. First come first served. So keep an eye on that.

The new provider for Gamepass is atrocious. The replay games still have all the add breaks in and there's no easy way (at least on PC) to skip them. They don't even show adverts just the blank screen saying that the game will return to. Looking at the twitter feed it looks like they have no plan to change it. I've emailed them asking for a refund as it's just unwatchable which is a real shame.

Surely the effort required to black the screen is equal to removing the breaks entirely?

Jaguars beat the Texans 29-7

Apparently their first season opening win for 6 years.

I know it's early days, but the Ravens' defensive looked very good.

This year's gamepass is a disaster, but being the only way to see all the Seahawks games, I haven't a choice. There isn't even a PS4 app anymore.

Interesting start to the season as always, love the first few weeks before it settles down into a pattern. Key NFC East win for the Eagles too, it would be nice if we could make the playoff party for a change, one Wild Card loss in the last six seasons and that's it. :dread:

Good win for the Packers :datass: Hoping they can continue the good form from the tail-end of last season and get a good run going (and keep it going).
