"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."

This season and post season has been ridiculous. The games just get better and better as all the teams are so well matched (well not the Jets or Giants - even the Jags and Lions are not all that far away).

"Tied ball game. Cinci has the momentum, good chance to pull off the upset here!"

Bengals have stoped the Chiefs 3 times in a row now. Looks like half time adjustments have worked so far for Cinci. Still could go either way this

"May as well give these cunts the trophy now, tough stopping a billion dollar QB!!"

"Brady is like Jordan in basketball or the likes of Ronaldo in football. Almost always cheer against them but respect the ability and the perseverance. Any team in the AFC for me. Don't mind the Chiefs and Andy Reid, but a first-time champ would be nice. Niners in the NFC. But all have to wait until after Canada v. US in the first and proper football."

Really looking forward to Niners v Rams.

"RB - you're right, fella: he's been an incredible QB. One of the top three of all time, no question. Benefited hugely from being paired with the greatest modern day coach - and, given Belichick's history with the Jets, that has been the most galling thing of all! As a duo, they were exceptional in terms of consistency and ability."

"Game day baby! Niners and Chiefs win. I expect both games to be close, Niner v Rams will be a nail biter. 27 - 24 to Niners. Deebo and Kittle to light it up!"

"Fuck Brady, all about the championship games. Should be comfortable for the chiefs and if we don't offer more offensively than last week, could be a Chiefs v Rams SB. More the fault of the receivers than Jimmy G and they'll be happier back in normal temperatures, so give it your best boys."

Seems to be a bit of backtracking by Brady here. He is set to lose $15 million if he retires before Feb 4th. Almost a painful as playing against the Giants in the Super Bowl.! Go G Men.

A great QB without a doubt. But tell me I'm wrong Southbank.?

Magnificent player....its been a pleasure and a priv...

RBShorty - oi!

"Read that his Mrs Giselle is worth more than him, 400 million dollars ! He has a net worth of 250 million"

Them are great stats. But no mention of Spygate and Deflategate. And the AFC East was absolutely dog shit during most of he's time. But you can only beat what's in front of you. Right.?

He has had an unreal career. None too shabby for a 6th round draft pick. Guess that'll mean Gronk retiring again too. Sure Rodgers wouldn't mind having Mike Evans at his disposal.

"Boots, yep: Tom Brady, one of the greatest players in NFL history, has retired aged 44. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback won seven Super Bowls in an astonishing career spanning 22 seasons. He won six of those titles with New England Patriots, where he spent 20 years, before his final Super Bowl triumph with the Buccaneers last year. Brady is a five-time Super Bowl Most Valuable Player and three-time NFL season MVP. BBC"

ESPN reporting Brady retired

As we all know Scorch. Jerry does like making them large statements of intent. So selling the farm for a quick fix isn't off the drawing board.

"On Payton and the Saints. Of two minds. 1) I hope he doesn't see the writing on wall regarding something fans don't know about. 2) While he changed the culture of the Saints completely the players he has there now are not his kind of razzle and dazzle team. A new defensive mind might be better. Sill no Superbowl without him. If he moves on right away, more power to him. I am only really old enough to know a couple coaches before him but those were dire times."

"RBshorty 5:57 They have to give up the farm to get the Saints to hand over his rights. Multiple first round picks at the least, I expect."

"Far Cough 10:23 I know the reference but I still think it's a shit name. If anything just ""òhogs'."

On the name change - My CFL team growing up went from the Eskimos to the Elks. Which is fine I guess. Except that the Elks Lodge (ie. A group of Masons minus the secret stuff) was the most racist place to go in my town.

Rumours doing the rounds is Payton is being courted by Jerry Jones and he's Cowgirls. And the Giants hire Bills OC. Brain Daboll as the new HC. Hopefully we see a improvement on offence in the coming season. Which to be honest ain't much of a task. Go G Men.!

"El Scorchio 4:17 Thu Jan 27 Re: NFL (since 2016) Sounds like WFT will either be the Red Hogs or the Commanders. Commanders being the less shit alternative. Owch Not for me Scorch, the Hogs would be a reference to the great offensive line they had back in the 80s under Joe Gibbs"
