Week 6 Preview

by

Another awesome NFL game is headed to London, as the Dolphins and Jaguars do battle at Tottenham Stadium this Sunday.

The battle of Florida awaits, as does over 60,000 excited fans, as we break it all down in our Week 6 Preview podcast.

Wade and Ryan look at the upcoming match between Miami and Jacksonville in north London, as well as breaking down each week 6 game to make their score predictions for all the games.

Make sure you have a listen, a laugh and a cuddle for this one, as it has all the feels that you’re looking for.

Among some of the other things discussed in this episode includes:

London Games

It was a crazy week of NFL in London last week, and judging by what we’ve heard, you guys had fun, as well as some issues.

It’s London, and the NFL, so be prepared to be shocked by prices, forced into queues, and be subjected to a strict bag policy.
Let’s not forget that only a year ago we were dreaming of live events, so please plan ahead when you’re coming to the games.

Beer might be £1.99 up north, but you’re in London now baby. Get that £8 note ready.

London Travel

If you’re looking to join us at the Sports Bar & Grill Old Street after the game, the easiest way is via Liverpool Street Overground or trains.
It’s 40 minutes direct, and only a 10 minute walk from Liverpool Street to Old Street to get to the pub.

As per the NFLUK and the TFL

The Victoria line will be very busy before and after the Game and fans are advised to travel from Liverpool Street station, if possible, with services to and from Northumberland Park station offering twice the capacity of services to and from White Hart Lane station.

An additional 80 stopping services will call at Northumberland Park, starting at 11.30am and finishing at 8.40pm, ensuring that even in the event of overtime, there is adequate capacity to return fans to Liverpool Street.

After Parties

Looking to party after the game NFL style?
We got you covered!

The Sports Bar and Grill Clapham will be open before, after and during the games for all your NFL fun.
Located just on the high street, this lovely sports bar has cold beer, hot wings, and cool customers.
The pub is open until 11pm on Sunday.

Late night hawks will want to pop over to the Sports Bar & Grill Old Street, which not only boasts over 50 TVs showing the NFL, but it’s also open until 4am!
Plenty of time to get stuck in for some football shenanigans all night long!

Folks are booking their tables quickly, so get yours to avoid disappointment!

Fans looking for a way to avoid the crush of traffic to the game should consider the Princess Alexandra in Crouch End.
This traditional pub is not only open til 12:30am Monday mornings, but it’s a quick ride to both the stadium and central London.

Hit the Alex before the game, then grab the W3 bus directly to the stadium.
Just repeat and rinse on the way back, and you’ll be in the pub with a pint in your hand quicker than you can strip a hot wing of its meat.

London Game

Florida man fights Florida man in front of British people, could be the headline in this affair, as Tua returns to battle Trevor Lawrence.

Hardened NFL fans might point out that the two teams only have 1 win between them after 10 games, but casual fans are just happy to have the NFL back!

Ryan likes the Jags to get the W here, with Trevor Lawrence pulling out all the stops to get the home victory.

Wade thinks that the return of Tua plus the cloud over Urban’s head will be too much. Mike Gesicki will steal the show, as the Dolphins move on to claim their second win of the season.

Ryan-Jags 30 Dolphins 24
Wade-Dolphins 21 Jags 18

If you are going to the game, make sure that you join us after at one of the many parties we have going on.

It’s going to be a Sunday Funday!

Week 5 Review

by

What a tough week it was in the NFL!
Especially for the Giants, 49ers, and Jon Gruden!

Wade and Ryan look back at the week that was in our Week 5 Review podcast.

London Game

What a game in London!

A gorgeous, sunny day gave way to an excellent day of football at Tottenham Stadium.

The Falcons were able to squeeze a win over Zach Wilson and the struggling Jets, but that didn’t really matter to many UK fans.

It was also about getting out to enjoy a beautiful day, with new friends, and a heck of a lot of energy in a shiny new stadium.

We have amazing nights after, hosting all the fans at the Sports Bar & Grill Old Street, Clapham, and the Princess Alexandra in Crouch End.

Ready to do it all again this week?

Gruden

You should always be careful what you say on emails, especially if they are work emails.

Jon Gruden found this out the hard way this week, when an investigation into the Washington Football Team yielded some hefty words from the trash-talking Gruden.

The 90s’ might be done and dusted, but some of the language and nuance remains.

Gruden will most likely be the tip of the iceberg, with many more in the league likely to face justice for their naughty words.

This Week

Are you going to the bug game this week?
What about after the game?

Head to the Sports Bar and Grill Clapham or Old Street on Sunday, which will be hosting wicked after parties.

See you Sunday!

 

Week 5 Preview

by

Welcome to London NFL!
We couldn’t be happier to have you, as the Atlanta Falcons and NY Jets touch down in the capital for a Sunday Funday match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Who’s going to win? What else is there to do in London? Who wins all the games Sunday?
All these questions answered and are, in this punchy podcast we call the Week 5 Preview.

London Game

The Jets and Falcons will face off at 2:30pm GMT (that’s 6:30am in California!), in an epic showdown at Tottenham stadium in north London.

Make sure that you double check all the rules, travel schedule and that you have your tickets before going!

If you show up with no vaccinations, carrying a garbage bag of your stuff, chances are you’re not going to have the best day.
Remember there are other people who also want to watch the game, so think about those people around you as well!

London Parties

We are throwing pre and after parties at the Sports Bar & Grill Clapham, Old Street, as well as the Princess Alex in Crouch End.

Clapham and the Alex will be open until 1am, while Old Street will keep the party rocking until 4am.

Book your table now from our events page.

Jets (1-3) vs Falcons (2-2)  +46

Yes, we have never had a set of winning teams play in a London game, but who cares? We have actual games here, so stop yer bitching.

Fortunately for the Jets, they finally won a game, after an inspired victory over the Titans. These emotions should carry them high into the sky for their flight across the pond.

Matt Ryan and the Falcons have another season of woe ahead of them, as the injury bug made an early visit to the team this season.
Kyle Pitts has yet to emerge as the big catch sensation that Atlanta envisioned, being needed more to shore up that patchy O line instead.

Ryan admitted on the podcast that he was ‘done’ betting on the Falcons, which leaves him no choice to bet on the Jets. He thinks that they will put out some inspiring play en route to a tight, tight victory.

Wade is big on Atlanta, as they seem to be the marginally better of the two struggling teams.
New York may have blown their celebration load last week, toasting their meagre victory like it would be their only win of the season. Experience wins in this low scoring game.

Ryan- Jets 24 Falcons 23
Wade- Falcons 24 Jets 20

Other games that the guys look at in this podcast.

Broncos (3-1) vs Steelers (1-3) -1  +40.5

The air is starting to leak out of Big Ben, as the Steelers slip further away from salvaging a rough season.
Their O line is atrocious, giving no one zero time to do anything.

Denver has quietly jumped to a 3-1 record off the back of an inspired defence, and mobile Teddy Bridgewater.
With Teddy down, it’s time for old man Drew Lock to return to face a patchy Pittsburgh D.

Ryan thinks that this is an easy, AFC get right game for the Steelers, as they stave off the bucking Broncos at home.

Wade doesn’t think that the fall from grace is down yet, with another batch of odd losses in the Pittsburgh future.
Drew Lock will be able to dink and dunk to get some plays off, while the running game will give the Steelers constant problems.

Ryan-Steelers 17 Broncos 13
Wade- Broncos 21 Steelers 18

If you want to hear the rest of our picks, listen to the whole podcast, you never know what tickles your fancy here.

Sports Bar & Grill Clapham is showing the Wilder vs Fury fight on Saturday night if you’re looking for a place to watch it.

Hope to see you Sunday night at one of our 3 fabulous NFL parties in London.

Stay safe, have fun, and enjoy the game!

Week 4 Review

by

What an exciting week in the NFL, made even better for UK fans as we host a London game for week 5.

Wade and Ryan are here to look back on the week that was in the NFL for week 4, in a fun and peppy podcast called the Week 4 Review.

Ryan went a respectable 7-9 in his week 4 picks, while Wade busted out an impressive 12-4 record to scoop a few pools over the weekend.

Among some of the trends and issues that the guys talk about in this one.

London Game

It’s the Falcons versus the Jets (wee!) at Tottenham in the first of the NFL games in London.

While it’s a truly beautiful stadium, the area around White Hart Lane leaves much to be desired. There’s really not much of a reason to leave anyway, with all of the bars and restaurants you can find within the stadium walls.

The NFL Store in the stadium will be happy to take your money in exchange for the jerseys of your NFL dreams.
Don’t worry about bringing a bag for all that swag, they will have legit ones available you can carry into the stadium.

Visitors to London are in for a treat, just don’t wander around too much to lose that lustre.

Also, Ted Lasso isn’t a real person, so stop asking us.

Petrol Crisis

Britain is still missing fuel, causing line ups, punch ups and neighbourhood headaches.

If you’re planning on driving to the game, be aware that fuel might be non existent, and parking could provide an added nightmare to your journey.

The Overground rolls into White Hart Lane every 15 minutes, which will give you plenty of time to plan your stadium day.

Winners

Among some of the winning teams that Wade and Ryan gush about in this episode includes:

Chiefs

Finally a win, but at what cost? Kansas City is struggling this year as they slump further down the division walls. Can they maintain this momentum to thwart the Bills in week 5?

Cowboys

If you smell something creeping up in your garden check that it might be ‘dem boyz. Dallas has put together a winning team, let’s see how long that they can stay healthy.

Cardinals

The best team in the NFL? They have certainly shown why that they might be considered. Of course it’s only week 4, so let’s hold our horses.

Losers

Lions

Detroit could be the worst team in all of football, with no direction fo where they are going. The Lions have had their mane and tail chopped, it’s hard to see where they find the motivation.

Texans

Stop, just stop. That’s all their defence has left to say.

Titans

Insults meet injuries as this team can no longer rely on Henry for the winning scores. Tannehill is struggling behind a weak line and their D can barely contain themselves.

Week 5 Parties

Don’t forget we’re throwing big parties this weekend at the Sports Bar and Grill Clapham, Old Street and the Princess Alexandra.

Clapham will be showing the Fury vs Wilder fight Sat night, while Old Street will be open until 4am with NFL action wall to wall.

Welcome to London!

 

 

Week 4 Preview

by

Three weeks done and dusted so far in the NFL, and what have we learned?

Tom Brady is definitely not finished, but the Jets are. The Chiefs might struggle this year, and could be fall behind the Las Vegas Raiders.
The world needs more Frank Gore.

Wade McElwain and Ryan Cull chat all of this malarky and more, as they make their picks in this Week 4 Preview.

If you want to join the guys watching the NFL every Sunday, why not join us at the Sports Bar & Grill Old Street for all the NFL fun. It’s open until 12:30am, and you can watch ALL of the NFL games there.

London Games

We are throwing parties for the London games at the Sports Bar & Grill Clapham and Old Street, as well as the Princess Alexandra in Crouch End.

All of these places are centrally located, open late, and dedicated to NFL action-so if you are looking for a place to book in for before or after the game, please just let us know.

Also be aware of the petrol crisis in the UK at the moment, which means cars are slowly moving throughout north London, and traffic jams pop up wherever a gas station is.
If you’re planning on driving to the games, and you haven’t been around the stadium lately, we would highly recommend avoiding it.

Among some of the games the guys talk about in this episode of the podcast includes:

-2 Browns (2-1) vs Vikings (1-2)  +51.5

Everyone keeps talking about how the Vikes should be 3-0 if they didn’t yada yada yada, but they are 1-2 so there you go.

The Browns are 2-1 and are starting to show more promise as they gain momentum each week. OBJ is back, and the running game is a duel threat.

Ryan likes the Vikings to continue their winning ways with an easy victory over Baker and the Boys. He likes the Minnesota running game to gash yards over Cleveland, as well as Cousins to spread the ball around.

Wade favours the Brownies here given how tough their D has been playing, not to mention the pocket protection that even a nerd would be jelly of. OBJ will be a big difference in this one.

Ryan- Vikings 28 Browns 23
Wade- Browns 31 Vikings 28

Lions (0-3) vs -3 Bears (1-2)  +42.5

Detroit might be one of the worst teams in the league, but that hasn’t stopped them from being competitive every week. Goff refuses to go out as a joke, while TJ Hockenson continues to stuff balls every Sunday.

Chicago took a nut punch from the Browns last week, as it became evident Matt Nagy hadn’t bothered to prepare a Sunday plan. Fields got mown, and the total offence was offensive.

Ryan thinks Goff is better than Fields, and will be the top man on the day. If Detroit were to win a game this season, he thinks that this is the one.

Wade has faith in his Bears to turn it around after a bitter loss last Sunday. Being at home and with the fan momentum behind them, he thinks its time to right the ship. He likes the Bears to cover in this one, and show some stones in the trenches.

Ryan- Lions 23 Bears 17
Wade- Bears 26 Lions 20

Ryan has some other teams that he likes for week 4, including the Dolphins to toss over the Colts, Bills stuffing the Texans, Atlanta upsetting the Washington FT, and the Jets covering against the Titans.

Wade fancies the Giants to cover against the Saints, Panthers to cover versus the Cowboys, and the Broncos with a steady victory over the nevermore Ravens.

Make sure you listen to the whole dang podcast to hear it all.

Join us every Sunday at the Sports Bar and Grill Old Street or Clapham to watch all the games!

See you Sunday!
