Jags stinking up the London game.
I can’t remember seeing a worse NFL performance.

Falcons are at the Panthers. Doesn't Spencer play for the Saints?

Oh, whoops, yes. I meant buccs to beat the saints. To be fair, the falcons ought to win too.

I’ll go Atlanta tonight.

Cheers Poulton.

Yes brave pick that paid off, as I have been impressed by the Commanders this season.

Luckily no one picked the Cowboys this week!

Some really big scores across all the games

Can't wait any longer, Poulton! The suspense every week waiting for the table and new fixtures is killing me!

Gameweek (GW) 6 results

Hi all, best week of them all so far. We were all correct! Which is quite impressive given we selected 5 different teams and this season has already been massively unpredictable. Some interesting scores this week, the Lions absolutely spanked the Cowboys. The Bucs hammered the Saints (albeit the Saints had a brilliant second quarter). Big shout out also to the Colts overcoming a great Steelers defence, Offlay Claret has been singing the Steelers praises to me for a few weeks!

Feel free to post any other highlights you picked up on, there are plenty!

No easy calls this week! I could even see the Patriots getting a result - although to be clear, that is not my pick for the week...... yet

Rarely convinced by Hurts, but I'm gonna risk the Eagles to win at the Giants.

Was late to post so will take a late game if possible and go with Ravens

MrTopTier · Post by **MrTopTier** » Sun Oct 20, 2024 7:21 pm

Ditto.

Going to go with Raiders, second choice was a snaky feel for the 49’s but think I have already used them up.

Cheers Poulton.

GW 7 results.

Hi all, another interesting round of games and our success rate is still good, I assume this will start to drop as we use up the ‘better’ teams and have to start making more difficult picks! I only managed to watch some of the Jags this weekend which probably won’t live long in the memory. How long until they become the London Jags?

hoping if that ever happens they don't call them the London Spurs!

Also if london get a team it’s got to be called the Monarchs surely?!

Oh how I wish I picked my team (Bucs) earlier in the season before Godwin and Evans got bad injuries this week!

This drives me mad. Judge stopping the play getting off but the play clock is still running. Washington forced to burn a time out.
Ludicrous ruling.

WASHINGTON WOW. That final Hail Mary will be shown over & over again. What a finish, never quit.

Tricky Trevor · Post by **Tricky Trevor** » Mon Oct 28, 2024 12:12 am

Following my earlier photo post there was worse to come. Judge in the same position, stopping play, and a Washington lineman gets called for a false start. 5 yd penalty. How the hell can it be a false start when the judge is stopping you playing?
These decisions need looking at. One of the things I love about NFL is that at season end they do review contentious decisions and change the rules accordingly and normally for the better.

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Mon Oct 28, 2024 10:20 am

My Bucs gave it a good go without Godwin and Evans and it was great to see Cade Otton play so well. Just wish our defence would actually do something positive and when they do, not undo it by giving away more stupid penalties. We might win more games if we do.

GW 8 results.

Hi all, another pretty successful week for most of us, the only banana skin in our picks was the Ravens losing to the Browns. Texans squeaked through to give a few of you a point!

Any early shouts on who reaches the Superbowl this year? I am assuming Chiefs will be there (as I am sure most think the same) and it is getting hard to look past the Lions to meet them in the final.

Loads of contenders for me, with the Bills, Vikings, Packers, Ravens and even the Commanders in contention, if Daniels can keep it going.
