Week 8 Tips

by

The clocks fell back in the UK Sunday, so hopefully you are all well rested and pumped for another great week in NFL betting.

Wade and Ryan are back with all of their top Week 8 Tips, to help you make the most informed (or half ass) decisions when it comes down to laying some cash on the Week 8 games.

Ryan has plenty of upsets tee’d up for the Sunday slate of games, while Wade has some eerie predictions for the Halloween set of matches.

Who do you have in your Week 8 picks?

Ryan’s Tips

Freshly back from the tundra of Canada, Ryan and his Bills are well rested heading into Sunday, and ready to rock the heck out of the Dolphins.

He likes the Detroit Lions and Dan Campbell to get their first WIN of the season, with an inspiring upheaval over the Philadelphia Eagles.
Ryan thinks that this is the first W of the season for the lowly Lions, and that Jalen Hurts and the boys will continue to struggle in the season.

Pittsburgh might be slowly sinking into the AFC North, but Ryan likes the Steelers this week in a get right game against the bashed up Browns.
Big Ben isn’t as big as he once was, nor is he as talented, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have the tools to piss all over the Dawg Pound.

Bump and grind might be how Urban Meyer approaches the NFL, as well as college girls at the bar.
Jacksonville has struggled mightily all season, but so have the Seattle Seahawks who host them in Week 8.
Ryan likes Trevor Lawrence and the Jags to get their second win of the season.

Dak is out, which means that the talents of Cooper Rush could be called upon to face the Vikings in Minnesota Sunday night.
Ryan believes that the talented corps of the Vikes can overcome the ferocious running game of Dem Boyz, and squeak out a big W on Sunday night.
The line dropped from the Cowboys being 2.5 pt faves to being 3 point underdogs.

If you take Ryans upsets of DET, PIT, JAC, and MIN for Week 8 and drop £10 on it, you would win £154.70.

Wade’s Picks

Wade had another great week in NFL tips, slugging out 9 correct games in Week 7.

Here are some of his nuggets of wisdom for the Sunday slate of games in the league.

Carolina Panthers have been imploding as of late. With Christian still out, and talk turning to dumping him for Deshaun Watson, the team MUST be in freefall, right?
Nah. The Panthers still have a fast pass rush, and welcome happy Gilmore from the Pats.
Wade thinks that the Panthers will upset the Falcons by disrupting Matt Ryan all day long.

The Indianapolis Colts have been playing out there football, winning to teams they should lose to and vice versa.
Will the other shoe drop soon sending Wentz back to the injury tent?
Not this game.
Wade likes this divisional rival game to get big points, and a big day for the Colts in a win.

‘Justin Fields isn’t ready to be a starter’ is something Wade has been saying since week 1. With Dalton down and out, Fields will once again take to the field after a beatdown by the Bucs.
The 49ers are no Tampa, they’re not even Jacksonville.
Wade likes his Chicago Bears to move their D up on San Fran and to disrupt a Sunday win.

Tampa Bay and the Bucs are clearly one of the best teams in the NFL, while the New Orleans Saints are…an NFL team.
That being said, the Bucs will heading into a much needed week 9 bye week, so they might just grab a lead and let it coast.
Jameis Winston will have a chip, pretzel, and falafel on his shoulder in this game, so there will be motivation.
Wade likes the Saints to cover the spread, just not win the game.

Taking Wade’s week 8 tips of CAR, IND, CHI and NO on a £10 bet will yield you lovely £145.10.

We also have our DraftKings contests cracking each week, with a selection of FREE and PAID contests.
Our NFL in London league is rocking with great contests every Sunday.

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 1 Review

by

The NFL is officially back, and we can confirm that some beatings were handed out in style on Sunday, as we tip this podcast with our Week 1 Review.

Wade and Ryan both went 10-7 on Week 1, which isn’t bad considering how many upsets were flipped.
Both guys had some solid tips that turned into rocking picks, but also missed some glaring big opportunities on the board. (Hello Texans!)

In this podcast, Wade and Ryan look back at week 1 in the NFL, and how they fared with their betting brains.

Make sure that you join us this Sunday at the Sports Bar and Grill Old Street, where we will be showing all the games, as well as running a few DraftKings contests for your chance to win big!
Remember, we are giving away a set of tickets to the Dolphins vs Jaguars at Tottenham in our Week 3 contest, so join away there!

Here are some of the games we look at in this episode.

Eagles vs Falcons

Wade was all over Philly and Hurts, pegging this one as a big upset over the host Falcons.
Ryan figured Matt Ryan would find a way to win this one, although he never did.
The Eagles beat the heck out of Atlanta on Sunday with a solid combination of a dual running game, great new receivers, and an inspired Jalen Hurts.
Philly truly could be special this year.

Steelers vs Bills

To say Ryan was gutted in this result is an understatement.
The Steel curtain of D was all over Buffalo and thwarting Josh Allen’s ability to get going.
Despite being a 5.5 point underdog, Pittsburgh was able to frustrate a home crowd and their chances at going all the way in the AFC.
It did make this conference a whole lot more interesting though.

Cardinals vs Titans

Wade called this game the best DFS opportunity of the week, and boy was he right.
Kyler and co. pounded the hapless Titans D relentlessly, making Tannehill look like a chump in his own house.
Not only was Murray able to spread the ball, but the Arizona D was able to spread Tannehill out with repeated sacks.
Ryan thought his Titans would reign supreme, but now the world is looking at them to get it together if they have any chance in the AFC.

Seahawks vs Colts

Wade was sure that the hometown Colts would be able to buck away the limp Seattle D and establish their running game.
Ryan was chanting ‘Russ! Russ! Russ!’ ahead of this match, confident that RW would be able to rally the troops together.
Ryan got this one right, as the Seahawks actually looked good in this one.

Packers vs Saints

Hahahahahahahaha.

Bears vs Rams

Wade thought his Bears might put up some sort of fight against the LA D, but it wasn’t to be.
Matt Stafford had a career high night, and Justin Fields stayed healthy…so there’s that.
Chicago is going to need to find some resolve to win some of these tough games ahead in a weak ass division.

Ravens vs Raiders

Ryan was sure that the Las Vegas Raiders would roll big dice in their home opener against the Ravens, and boy was he right.
This exciting game was an up and down affair, with the Raiders coming out with an inspired win.

What was you pick of the week?

Falcons Doc

by

Are you hungry for more and more NFL content?
Is the preseason still not enough to fill that gaping hole in your weekend?
Are you an Atlanta fan?
Then have we got the Falcons doc for you to watch!

‘Does anyone know how to throw a football’ is not your typical NFL documentary, in that it doesn’t use any footage from the NFL.
(they’re pretty cagey when it comes to allowing people to use their content).

Instead it is a well thought out, and edited documentary available for FREE on YouTube.

Obviously done by Falcons fans, the doc takes a look at the history of the Falcons, and the struggles that they have had in trying to put together a franchise that could win a Super Bowl.

It’s well researched, and employs news articles and stock images to tell a historically interesting piece that would interest more than Atlanta Falcons fans.

Part 1 is up, and part 2 was uploaded on Sat August 21st so that you can get your fill of NFL this weekend.

Falcons fans looking forward to watching their team play the Jets at Tottenham stadium in October will have ample ammo of information to be able to impress and entertain those around them.
(or piss them off-that’s up to you).

The film is directed by fantastic documentary film maker Jon Bois.

Here’s the link to part 1.

Sesquicentennial

by

Seska what now?
Well, it’s our 150th episode of the podcast, so we thought we would celebrate with our Sesquicentennial celebration.

We’ve been talking NFL BS in London for the past decade, and we’re happy that we have been able to share it with such a great audience as yourselves.

In this episode the guys go off on a bunch of topics.

The Old Sports Bar

Were you one of the first people to join us when we threw NFL parties at the Sports Bar & Grill Marylebone?
It’s been a long time since those days in the musty basement, although we were the ONLY place in London showing NFL games.
We had comedy, Madden tournaments, and some of the craziest fans you’ve ever met.
We’re back with the new and improved Sports Bar & Grill this season, hope you come down and join us.

Tebow

Timmy time is over in Jacksonville, and even God couldn’t save him.
Despite selling mountains of jerseys, his tight end days are over in Florida, so Timmy will have to move on to a new sports at which to be mediocre in.

Hard Knocks

The Cowboys are back and Zak looks brittle.
Every episode is about not hurting Dak, so you wonder what this season is actually going to be like?
Zeke is looking punchy as opposed to paunchy, so let’s see if he can save himself from injuries this year.

London Games

Carolina has announced that fans will be required to wear masks at ALL games, it’s only a matter of time before teams consider the fan options as the impending booster shots of fall loom.
As far as we know, fans will have to provide proof of vax before entering the stadium, but of course everything can change.

We’re back with our season previews and fantasy episodes soon.
We’re also working with DraftKings this season to offer you exciting DFS tournaments all year long.

Here’s the podcast! Enjoy and share!
