NFL (since 2016)

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

"why do the BBC not use the yank tv commentary? fucking cheapskate, penny pinching cunts"

[crystal falace]

"Haha in fairness they ran away from branch there, thats an aberration, they had the 2nd best run defense in the league, Flowers is an under the radar player today, patriots best pass rusher, could be a star from the lower rounds of the draft"

[El Scorchio]

Nothing for Freeman there...

[Takashi Miike]

"haha, good call"

[Lato]

They call this football

"Freeman 1st TD scorer, on Betfred if he scores again the bet doubles etc"

[crystal falace]

"Hve a look on paddypower there are a bunch of special bets on there, some really good prices witg regards to passing yards and touchdowns etc, I requested a 5fold of anytime touchdown scorers which i like at 30/1"

"What is everyone doing, bet-wise? Pats -3 handicap at 2.1 looks the pick to me..."

Hope Falcons can do it - was reading that one of the main guys (Mack) is planning to play with a broken fibula - wtf?

[Takashi Miike]

I hope the Falcons batter the cunts

[zebthecat]

Go Falcons! Matt Ryan has been almost perfect post-season.

[Mr. Burns]

Come on Falcons beat the cheats.

"May have got abit carried away on paddypower have staled about 200 on different bets, have a look at the whatoddspaddy section, some decen lt bets there"

[El Scorchio]

"They don't have to pass it long- Jones can break off a huge gain on YAC, just off a short pass. If they try and take him out of the game as they are known for trying to do, Sanu and the running backs could have a field day. It won't be like the steelers where they had no other weapons aside from Brown after Bell got injured Really don't think the Falcons will be bothered about time of possession. They should be able to move it pretty easily without having to take risks. This game could realistically be a blowout either way, or a really close one. It has the potential to be a classic. We will have to wait and see...."

"The pats wont give up long plays though. They will bend and not break. Atlanta are not so good in the RedZone & i think the stats back that up. Atlanta's defence is #27 in scoring whilst the pats 3rd ranked Defence is #1. They are going to pummel those Falcon receivers. Brady will march up and down and take his time and although not the deciding factor, it will play a part."

[Takashi Miike]

"ive dug out Ryan in the past but he was brilliant against the Packers. I can't see him choking, especially in another dome"

[El Scorchio]

"If you have a quick strike offense, it doesn't matter who controls the clock. The pats can have the ball as long as they want as long provided the falcons can manage to hold them to punts and field goals and can get up and down the field quickly."

[alfie romeo]

"The Falcons defence has to do a job. If Brady can control the clock, the quick striking Falcons wont get the chance to put the points up. Can see the Pats pounding it with Blount and controlling the game with short passes. Hope it's close though and goes to the wire."

[El Scorchio]

"Yeah agreed, I think whoever goes up early probably wins."

[Takashi Miike]

"I really fancy the falcons, especially if they get an early lead"

[kylay]

"Sanu is a virtual lock grumps. the Pats will double team Julio all day. If Sanu doesn't get one, it's going to be a long day for the falcons."

[El Scorchio]

That cannot be denied- they have built a really good team. Looking forward to this one much more than a few others in recent memory.
