NFL - Thanksgiving

[reder]

Anyone else watching the game this evening? Throwing my eye over it before I head to the gym.

The Titans are spanking the Lions 35-10 and are dead certs to get back on track after their first loss to the Jets. Brett Favre, WOOOH! The Titans running game is awesome. Sean will be happy.

As a Giants fan, I would just like to say Eli Manning is a god and I hope and pray we retain the super bowl this year. Our record is solid, with only 1 loss this season and we are cert for play-off. Joint best with the Titans. The rest are there to make up the number but we were pox until the play-offs last year, I suppose.

On a side note, the half time entertainment was not very good.

PS: They have savaged the turkey on Sky Sports NFL.

The titans are very impressive on the rush. Am watching Dallas v Seattle and its a non-event. The cowboys are beating them off the park and its on the 2nd quarter. The giants are super strong when you consider what they did to the cowboys a few weeks ago, alright.

romo is back so its a diff dallas team altogether...

forgot the offy closes at 10 so had to leg it out of the pub at 21:45...

will be an interesting few weeks ahead with the wildcard positions more so in the AFC.....

and just realised that the superbowl is on the same night as the chelsea game...wow that will be some day on the piss more so when the dolphins steam roll the giants

[reder]

Im hoping for a Giants v Titans final but many as suggesting a Giants v Colts final. 3 non-events last night.

[JamesM]

3 whoppings last night, Eagles pulled that one out of the bag. 3 Impressive winners. I'm a Bucs fan so am hoping for a big performance against the Saints on Sunday, win that and we should win the division.

Giants @ Redskins is the biggest game of the weekend. Cant believe they are not televising it on sky. To the net for this one.

steelers pats game aint on either which is a massive game for both teams

He sure was. They were up against a very poor side last night though, an IrishKop offence would have racked up scores against the Lions yesterday!

Starting to get interesting now over the next few weeks as playoff positions will be decided, will be looking forward to my Sunday evenings in front of the telly with a few cans. Like byrnetred said, Superbowl Sunday will be a mad one being on the same day as Chelsea! Obvious pick for the Superbowl is Titans and Giants, but I got a feeling one of them will definitely slip up along the way. I could see either Jets or Cowboys taking advantage and heading to Florida on Feb 1st.

If anyone finds a decent link to the game tonight, can they post it. I can only find a link for audio commentary on channelsurfing.net. Will try justin.tv later.

Just ordered my new custom giants hoodie from nflshop.com.

Giants win 23-7. Now 11-1 and looking great. Pity about the Plaxico Burress 'incident', uhmmm. I hope it doesnt disrupt the team.

Ah i see, sorry. I'm a casual fan but the interest is getting more and more now i've a better undstanding of the tactical side. Sky show a programme called 'Americas Game', each episode shows a different year following the winning team through the whole season, its very well done. Narrated by someone well known with players and coach adding to it

The only thing that makes me smile is when the winning team declares 'we're the world champions'

damn the Jets.Just when i start to get excited about an all new york finale they play awful against Denver.
The good news is the Pats lost again

[JamesM]

Loverly win for the Bucs last night, i think Sky picked the right game there after all, all the way action.

Think we will come up just short, but what an amazing turnaround, jsut hope we can pick up from here next year.


Think plax will be a huge loss for the gints, don't think they'll win it to be honest.

Talented ladies. Dance-wise, I mean.

[sean]

Its been announced that the Buccaneers will host the Patriots at Wembley in October 09. Reckon that will be even bigger than the game that was held at Wembley this year, so will definitely be heading along to this.

Was just going to post this. Disappointed its not the giants but hey, what can you do. This will be very popular. The biggest cheer this year was when the patriots winning result was announced at the game.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will host the New England Patriots when the National Football League continues its International Series at London's Wembley Stadium on Sunday, October 25, 2009.
Tickets for the game will soon be available, and NFL fans in the UK can get themselves to the front of the queue to make a purchase by signing up to the Registry of Interest that will open in the week commencing December 15th.
You will be able to register interest in purchasing hospitality packages, club seats and general admission tickets. Tickets will go on sale via Ticketmaster's website in mid-to-late January 2009.
The New England Patriots are the most popular team among NFLUK.com registered members, and have won three Super Bowls this decade. The two Wembley-bound teams combined have played in five of the last seven Super Bowls, with the Patriots winning following the 2001, 2003 and 2004 seasons and the Buccaneers triumphing in 2002. In 2007 the New England Patriots made it through the entire regular season undefeated, only to lose in a thrilling finish to Super Bowl XLII in February 2008.
Filling in the register of interest form will give you the best chance to purchase general admission tickets for the game. We will endeavour to fulfill your ticketing request although this will be dependent on demand and we cannot guarantee that your request will be fully met.

[mrpotatohead]

How much do you estimate a ticket would cost for that game reder?

[reder]

How much do you estimate a ticket would cost for that game reder?

Its far more expensive than the states. We paid £80 this year for seats behind the goal. The main stand would be £100+. Sean sorted me, so he can fill you in.

[mrpotatohead]

Cheers, I might register my interest, but I'm not sure I could really afford it, might opt for Glastonbury instead :-) the credit crunch i cant be going to everything!!

most expensive ticket last year was £100

but from havin a look at nfluk.com it looks like they will have a more tiered structure for pricing cause they were charging the same last year for behind the end zone as along the side line

I'm so happy its the Bucs, i'm actaully planning on going over next November to see them so now i'll hopefully see them twice next year. Lets hope its as defedning superbowl champions :)
