PAID

If money is what you’re after, then our paid contests will definitely tickle your fancy.

We know that many of our UK fans are new to DFS, so we try not to raise the stakes too high, as well as work to keep out the bots and wanks who make these contests a pain in the butt.

Our ‘Buck a Chuck‘ contest is an easy way to jump into our League, as well as enter some not too dear weekly contests.

2022 Super Bowl Picks

September 10, 2021 by nflinlondon

With the start of the NFL season, comes flurry of football speculation.
How will the extra games affect the season? Will injuries continue to dominate the league? Which team has the gumption to win it all?

Wade McElwain & Ryan Cull break it down with their Super Bowl picks for the 2022 game.

Yes, it is WAY to early to make such a bold prediction this early in the season, but that’s the fun in the NFL.
Take a punt based on some scraps of knowledge, stats, and mix it in with intuition and a dash of American network garble, and you have some half baked picks.

With LA being the host city for the February game, there is always a desire for one of the two Los Angeles teams to make it in front of the home crowd.
Sure, most of the crowd is made up of bloated execs and ass kissers, but there’s always those 10000 die hard fans allowed in to rally up the Chargers/ Rams.

Ryan’s Pick

Ryan is very cagey in his predictions thus far due to the potential implications of future ridicule from fantasy football chums.

One thing is clear though, is that this kid from Brantford, Ontario is sauced and baked in Buffalo Bills pride, and he believes this is the year that they make it to the Super Bowl.

Josh Allen is a ‘beast’, they have a ‘solid’ wide receiver group, and his praise is muted enough not to curse the potential gauntlet of AFC adversaries they need to overcome to get there.

Ryan has the Buffalo Bills win win the AFC Championship and move on to the Super Bowl.

Meeting them in the big show will be…the Los Angeles Rams.

That’s right, Ryan has drank the Matt Staffy Juice and thinks that the Rams with their bright new rocket, speedy sets of WR hands, and monster D will be the champs of the division atop the other imitators.

Prediction

Buffalo Bills vs LA Rams

Wade’s Pick

The AFC will be a blood bath, and with a relatively healthy group of teams ready to roar, it’s easy to pick a few contenders that have the stones to make it through a long season.

The Bills, Browns, Ravens, Steelers, Titans and Raiders all have the potential to rip it to the finish, but they don’t have the sustainability to endure themselves.

Kansas City has the team, the vision, the drive and the positioning to repeat as Super Bowl visitors, and that’s the pick for the AFC.

The LA Chargers will be plucky and fun to watch, and should be a great team to potentially make it all the way. Sadly, Justin and the team need another year in the grow room before they’re ready to bud.

As far as the NFC goes…it’s the Rams!

Yes, it’s a Los Angeles double set with the same lame pick as Ryan.

The Bucs are good, and they’ll be hot, but everyone will be gunning for them. That gets tedious after a while, just ask Captain America.

Green Bay’s Dream Machine will break down on the side of the road when they realise you can’t power a team on personal ambition and nostalgia.

The Bears will do great. People will be surprised. Justin Fields is a new messiah.

Prediction

Kansas City Chiefs vs LA Rams 

That’s it for our 2022 Super Bowl Picks, hope you can use them.

Sadly, there is no betting sites that are good in the UK to allow us to make those picks, but we thought we would throw those out there.

Who do you have winning it all? Let us know.

Why do UK sportsbooks suck at NFL?

August 13, 2021 by nflinlondon

With sports betting exploding around the world, we often get asked ‘what are the best websites for NFL betting’?
Surprisingly, there aren’t very many available to UK fans that actual focus on NFL games, odds and options.
In fact we always find ourselves asking ‘Why do UK sportsbooks suck at NFL’?
There are a few reasons for this, which we will explain, as well as point you in the direction of our Top 3 NFL betting websites. 

Betting Britain

Britain has been betting on sports for decades, so one would assume that the betting product would be sleek, slick and easy to navigate.
Nope.
Betting in Europe is more ‘football focused’ (aka soccer) meaning that many of the betting options and parlays simply aren’t available to the public.
While the NFL betting options accelerated during the 80s’ NFL boom in the UK, it didn’t really translate into dedicated product.
Even as UK sports books increase their offerings in the face of American growth, they still lack the gumption to tailor their products to North American sports. 

Moneyline

One of the biggest issues for NFL betting fans comes down to formatting.
Europe and the UK prefer the use of ‘Decimal Odds’ or 

‘Fractional Odds’ when it comes to setting their weekly lines, whereas North Americans prefer the standard ‘Moneyline.’

For anyone not used to seeing odds formatted in ‘Decimal Odds’ style, it can be a confusing and intimidating style of play.
Many European sports books lazily refuse to add Moneyline odds, which essentially deprives them of a new, hungry audience.
North Americans are new to NFL betting, and intimidating them right off the bat is no way to sign up new customers. 

Options

Any NFL fan who has ever walked into the sports bar of a Las Vegas casino, knows that a magical experience is about to happen.
Not only do Vegas sports bars display countless betting options, the employees who work at sports books are all too happy to help with the numerous different ways you can wager.
UK casinos rarely even sports books, as was the case when we ran events at the Hippodrome in Leicester Square.
Fans who were desperate to wager on games were pointed to the Ladbrokes down the street, which benefited HUGE from the thousands of fans who wanted to throw down money each week.
Betting became so big there, that Ladbrokes employees from down the road would attend viewing parties because they had ‘so many people coming to bet on games’, they wanted to see what it was all about. 

Authenticity

Real NFL bettors usually have a weekend plan for success.
If you know which of the games on Sunday are ripe for betting, you will work out how many parlays, over-unders, and long shots you are willing to make.
Attempting to then make those wagers on a UK betting app then begins the problems.
Not only are the odds radically different from the US, but the ability to make ‘out there’ bets is only possible if you go into a shop, and find a competent worker.
While it is rewarding to burn a lazy bookmaker for not paying attention to NFL news across the pond, it’s frustrating to have to Scooby Doo down all the information from an app. 

Over the years we have tried to discuss the poor NFL betting options with bookmakers, but it has always fallen on deaf ears.
Either they don’t care about making money from a massively untapped market, to they’re just lazy.

So what betting websites would we recommend?
They’re pretty limited, but here you go.

1. Bet365

When it comes to NFL betting in Europe, Bet365 seems to be the only one with their head in the game.
Not only do they offer the best betting options for the NFL, but they also have a wide selection of parlays and novelty bets on offer.
Sure, the layout is a bit laborious, but once you get the hang of it, it’s pretty easy to get betting.
You can also switch between betting pricing, allowing players to compare moneyline vs decimal options.
The best past about Bet365 however is the ability to watch the games.
Provided that you have bet on some NFL matches, bettors have the option of being able to stream the game to their phone or device.
With limited viewing options in Europe, this is a ‘MUST HAVE’ feature for NFL fans, as it allows you to watch the game in real time, for no extra cost.
Expats in Europe have been raving about this option for years, as it also extends to MLB, NBA and NHL games, which are hard to find across the pond.
Bet365 has pretty good customer service as well, which is really helpful if you are looking to bet on specific options. 

2. Betway

Second on the list is Betway, which has seen a drop in its NFL product in recent years.
With a very simple and straightforward layout, Betway’s NFL betting is a far simpler option than that of Bet365.
Parlays are quite easy to manipulate, and the overplay is quite crisp and simple.
Betway’s NFL product dropped in quality in 2020, so we are curious to see if they are going to improve on it.
Customer service is slow, but effective once they’re on it. 

3. Paddypower

Remember when Paddypower use to be edgy and funny?
Good times.
The Irish lads have gone corporate, and it shows in their North American sports betting options.
Like Betway, the NFL offerings on Paddy are pretty straightforward.
Nothing too fancy, and there are some muddled parlays and novelty bets in the mix, although they usually look like they were assembled by a soccer fan.
Customer service at Paddy is hit and miss, and on a busy game day, you’re more likely to encounter snark than satisfaction. 

We are still holding out that one day a UK sports book will actually take North American sports in Europe seriously.
With bookmakers on the continent on a frenzied mission to gobble up as many American betting properties as possible, you would think that they would actually look at what is successfully stateside and try to replicate it in Blighty.
 
The NFL is only going to get bigger in Europe, which bookmaker is finally ready to take it seriously?

Preseason Intro

August 11, 2021 by nflinlondon

The NFL is officially back baby, as we rock down the latest news in our Preseason Intro podcast.

Ryan is back from his vacay and fired up on his Josh Allen love, with high hopes and deep fears about his 2021 Buffalo Bills season.

Hard Knocks is back on HBO, wide receivers are bitching and getting into trouble, and Carson Wentz is injured again. Quelle surprise!

In this episode of the podcast, Wade & Ryan look at some of the latest drama popping up in the NFL, check in with our Hall of Fame game and entrants, lament on Michael Thomas, and give their take on the new taunting rules.
All this for free in an easy to listen to episode.

Hard Knocks

The dulcet tones of Liev Schrieber is back once again, as the voice over artist for the greatest NFL show in August.
It’s pretty much the only NFL show in August, but it’s HBO, so that makes it very entertaining.
The Dullus Cowboys are back on the Knocks once again, as we get to witness the dithering decision makings of Jerry Jones as he treds his way softly through a new world of woke.
All eyes will be on Dak to see if that horrendous injury of last season has any lingering effects, or has tempered that competitive spirit.
Zeke has been fed, and let out an almighty poo of transformation, hopefully that still makes him in a competitive league of ageing running backs.
It’s on NFL Gamepass, or HBO if you’re that lucky in the UK.

Table Mafia

Ryan is stoked on his Bills, and hoping that they all get the Freedom Jab of a winning season.
Josh Allen has just signed a whopping contract to keep him in western New York, and putting him in the ‘Mahomet-zone’ of premier paid slingers.
Will Joshy crush the AFC East, or lose the steam he built from the past few seasons.
All signs point to a solid Bills team, who will be ready for southwest Texas in 2025.

MT

Michael Thomas is back, and he wants to be traded!
Trying to capture the crown of ‘most annoying wide receiver’ of 2021, Thomas is off to a flash start, pissing off the team and any chance he has of fitting in with a new one.
After splashing out a whack of dough on MT, it is unlikely that the Saints will rid themselves of the pest, especially since their offence is pretty much a run and gun deep.
Without Drew Brees to smack him around with his mighty bling, Thomas requires someone to sit his ass down and show him the lack of rings on his fingers.
Winning an award on a Nickelodeon game against the Bears doesn’t look as good to a future team.

From Wentz it Came

Carson Wentz is inured again, and the preseason hasn’t even started.
Having put his ‘foot up someone’s ass’, Wentz is back on crutches, the finest pine he has ever rode.
It is no surprise (to anyone but the Colts) that his brittle return to battle would be fraught be breakage.
He is about as easy to keep healthy as a sunflower in a basement flat, and no matter what you do, you’re just going to get left with some rotten pulp.
Next time you get try to grow a sunflower, name it Carson Wentz and see how long you can keep it healthy.

Taunt This

The NFL has announced new taunting rules, only a few years after heralding the return of the end zone celebration.
It’s ok for a D line to ‘run a train’ on someone’s mama after a pick six, just don’t give a thumbs up to a guy after a bug catch.
It makes sense to nip this problem in the bud before it gets bigger.
The amount of times that players would taunt and flaunt each other after inconsequential yardage began to inflame game play, and lead to more sever incidents.
With a ‘two and out’ policy, the NFL looks to remove the narcissists and nogoodnicks and send a message to shut up and get back to the huddle.
Good call.

Gamepass

NFL Gamepass is back, and subscribers may have already felt the hit to their bank account.
For NFL fans in the UK, Gamepass is a MUST HAVE, and a far superior product it was in days of old.
At around £150, you will definitely get 12 months worth of action…well at least a GREAT 9.
Sky Sports NFL is fine if you want the weekly game and Redzone, Gamepass offers so much more for die hard fans of the game.
Best of all, you can host your own NFL parties with Gamepass. Watch your team when you want to.

Here’s the podcast for everyone to listen to.
Share, care, wear clean underwear.
