    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.

    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.

    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.

    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'
