The Lonely NFL Thread (complete with tumbleweeds)

Another season starts and I've forgotten who my favourite team is, so mon the saints, they're on just now :S.... Wait bollocks hank hills Texans get the win with a few seconds left.... Oh he missed the kick... But penalty... He gets to retake it :S.... Bloody ell saints....

[palmerq]

Oh bollocks, saints win... Lutz is not a clutz and kicks a 58 yarder 1 more than his record with a couple of seconds left... Nice maneuver from breesey on the last pass, very amusing last few mins.

That was a great game. Didn't catch it all, but it was super exciting until the very end. Texans were all but dead and then Watson throws a clutch TD pass while getting crushed. Then comes Brees and does Brees, taking the Saints into FG range (sort of) and Lutz nails a clutch kick.

This weekend was pretty good to me, except my Steelers looked like shit.

Was happy to see Eli and Winston get pounded, though. Can't stand either one of them.

Steelers were indeed horrific :S I didn't see many this weekend at all, got the broncos v raiders on dazn just now though.

Nothing deflates a City like hearing the words over and over...Brees injured and out for six weeks . This is going to be rough. Reeeeaaal rough

I am never going to be so arrogant as to pretend to understand your national sport but just dropped into mention that an old friend of mine is the states right now to watch a few Cleveland Brown's (I think that is their name) games.

He goes most years despite them... Struggling😁 and loves sport. He used to be a pro English football (Soccer Commentator) for years here before retiring.

Rhun and Ryanman both enjoyed the NFL I think and it has a small but growing following here

Enjoy.

I must say.... anyone who comes across the Atlantic to watch the Cleveland Browns play is a true fan. Not long ago the Browns amassed what has to be one of the most pathetic two-year stretches in professional sports history, going a combined 1-31. Browns fans in the States are largely known to be a faithful bunch, which you pretty much have to be given the history of the Browns over the last several decades. Lately that patience is being rewarded though, as the Browns are making some serious noise and could easily contend for the playoffs this year.

I think the fact that the NFL stages games yearly in both England and Mexico have done a lot to create whatever following they have there.
