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."

[Grumpster]

Should add i think his contract was up. And contracts in the nfl are a bit different with only so much money generally guaranteed and the rest of it if you stay there for the duration or play. Always confused me.

[Grumpster]

"New england would still have been shit with brady as the rest of the team are currently wank and they didn't have a choice, as Brady wanted to leave to join a team where his ideas would be used, as basically belichek and the other coaches ignored his input. Not like footie, players can generally fuck off when they want as franchises realise its pointless keeping someone who doesn't want to be there."

"Absolute amateur at this NFL, so are New England kicking themselves for allowing Brady to leave,and if he hadn't gone to the Buccs would they have made it to the semifinal."

"Went to bed early in third quarter of the Saints/Bucks game - and watched the rest of it this morning. That first half showed two ageing legends in decline. Second half was very different. Both have been phenomenal players, both still good QBs (incredible for their ages). But both now obviously on the tail compared to past capacity. Even Brady was failing to spot open receivers in the first half. Shame he never did that during the twenty years when he tortured us! Brady has enough in his legs for two more games. I don't doubt that. But it will be time after this season. It is for Brees, too, who deserves to go out on a gold throne for what he's done in Norlans."

Brady has now beaten as many NFC teams in the playoffs as Brees. Pretty remarkable stat.

Going to take something incredible not to be a loss

[Grumpster]

"Brees retiring on a loss then. They've done well getting here, but he has looked his age this year and clearly hasn't aged as well as Brady. Having Gisele at home probably helps keep him fit!"

[crystal falace]

Refs really trying to help the saints out every chance they get.

Good to see Greg rosenthal on sky nfl with his hammers shirt behind him.

[IsaacHock]

Romo & Nantz > Aitken & Buck

[Lee Trundle]

Refs are on the Saints side. This is game over already.

[southbankbornnbred]

"Shame the Browns couldn't secure the comeback, but a good game. Left themselves too much to do in the second half. Chiefs losing Mahomes is huge. Hope the Saints win, but think it'll be the Buccs."

[Lee Trundle]

Just need the Bucs to win for my accumulator now.

[Grumpster]

"Not worth the chiefs fans getting excited, they'll have that clown starting next week against the Bills surely, unless they bride whoever dishes out concussion periods."

[Lee Trundle]

Well done Andy Reid. Gotta be one of the most loved NFL coached out there.

[Takashi Miike]

makes you wonder what this Cleveland coach is watching. Hunt in a great rhythm so naturally he brings back a rusty Chubb

[zebthecat]

This is getting very interesting. If the Browns can bottle up Kelce I can't see Henne being able to do anything else (KC defence notwithstanding).

[Takashi Miike]

henne showing why he hasn't started a game since 2014

[Lee Trundle]

*5 points

[Lee Trundle]

"Even thought they're 8 points down, the Browns are well in there with a chance."

[Takashi Miike]

brilliant catch by hooper

[Lee Trundle]

Mahomes out for the game. This is getting interesting.

[Lee Trundle]

Brilliant by Mayfield on 4th down.

[Lee Trundle]

"Ah, ok, forget about that."
