NFL & NCAA Football Threads

Thank you Giants for the gift that is Saquon Barkley 😍
Good game from Saquooooonnnnn!! Funny names these Yanks.

Bit of a boring game in Brazil, but a good win from the Eagles milking the clock in last 5 minutes. Packers defence too loose.
 
On another note, the surface in Brazil was an absolute disgrace.

Players slipping all over the place. How can you not check the surface beforehand?

Well done Roger Goodell you *smile* moron.

NFL is finally back baby !!

Ravens @ Chiefs a great way to kick off the season today.

And in MopsClelland Trophy land we also have some good games to sink our teeth into. Check these out.

Dallas Cowboys (+2.5) @ Cleveland Browns (-2.5) 6:25am Monday September 9th
LA Rams (+4.5) @ Detroit Lions (-4.5) 10:20am Monday September 9th
NY Jets (+4.5) @ San Francisco 49ers (-4.5) 10:15am Tuesday September 10th


Tips to be submitted by 6:25am Monday
For any new players remember you are picking a team to cover the line, not win outright.

Best of luck to all.

@T-Shirt Tommy @MD Jazz @TigerForce @RoarEmotion @Ridley @Redford @Ricemagic @mainlandy @JoMamma @marella jube
Oh man, first post for 6-7 months.

And I know everyone will say it, "When did you know about NFL"? 😂
But for the first time in 46 years I really know nothing about NFL 😞
Haven't watched one pre-season game - whose looking good and who isn't, I don't know.
Other than keeping up with about 10% of 49ers news, I know nothing what anyone else has been doing :(

This is guess work number one -

Cowgirls by 1
Rams by 3
49ers by 5

Good luck all 😎

Oh boy what a shocking half of football by the Browns. Started well, but that lasted all of about 4 minutes.

Lamb showing Chase that he ain't the only bloke with claims as best WR in the NFL. Browns cannot get enough pressure on Dak, play calling and execution perfect for the cowgirls.

I cannot recall in previous seasons so many penalties for lining up in the neutral zone. Unsure if they have a ref simply dedicted to it or if players are just getting lazy/stupid? But so many games with multiple penalties for this offence.

Hard to see this game turning around.

Browns stunk it up big time.

Only week 1 so don't want to write them off yet. But they were very disappointing on both offense and defence.

Poos are back to their terrible best. Well done Dallarse.
 
Blessing in disguise having Wilson get injured and letting Fields play QB, but to score just 6 field goals!!!.....really???

At least a win is a win.

I was flicking over to that one when there were breaks in play during the Miami v Jags match.

Was not pretty, but yep, a win is a win TF.

Lions have to continue to be aggresive on offence. Stafford can score quickly, he has some weapons (Kupp is outstanding).

Don't put the cue in the rack.
 
Watched the 3 minute highlights but my takeaway from Texans Colts.

My Texans couldn't defend the long pass - multiple 50 yard throws leading to Colt touchdowns. Not sure if that's the colts or bad defense or both. The colts receiver was QUICK and the throws were great.

Clutch 3rd and 11 with 2 minutes left to seal the win Stoud to Colins. Bodes well as QB WR combo for the future to be making off the clutch plays.

I guess all you see are the scoring plays, intercepts and the clutch 3rd and long 2 points up - so hard to draw too many conclusions.
