Week 3 Tips

by

Another betting week is upon us, as we get ready for an exciting Sunday of NFL games.

With plenty of heavy hitting matches on tap, there are loads of opportunities to make some cash with smart bets.
To help you out (or not), we offer you some Week 3 Tips to increase your betting odds.

Wade and Ryan remarkably chose a lot of the games the same, which doesn’t happen very often.

That being said, the guys each have some value in their picks to help you make the right betting decision for you.

Make sure you join our Florida Panhandle DraftKings contest to WIN tickets to the Jaguars vs Dolphins at Tottenham stadium October 17th.
Open to UK residents only.

Now let’s break down some of the top plays for this week according to our pundits.

Ryan

For Ryan it’s all about the Bills this week, as he has high hopes for his Buffalo team that struggled against the Steelers in Week 1.
He is also offering his last heap of praise on the Falcons for this season, disappoint him, and be shamed for ever (or until next season).

Among some of Ryan’s top picks:

Bills -7.5

Buffalo is home at Orchard Park, which means the tables will be smashing to the sound of music.
Home field music. Ryan thinks his Bills will squash the Washington running game en route to a big beating for the home crowd.

LA Chargers +6.5

Justin and the boys are rolling into Kansas City to face Patrick Mahomes and the down trodden Chiefs. After losing to the Ravens last week, Ryan thinks they will struggle against a tough LA squad.
He’s got the Chargers to cover in this one.

Falcons +3

The devil might have Daniel Jones, but the Falcons have Matt Ryan and he’s going to win. This could/ should/ would be the last chance to invest in Atlanta. Don’t let him down this week.

LA Rams +1.5

Tom Brady might have it all, just not a victory on Sunday. Ryan thinks that the Rams will stuff the Bucs, allowing Matt Stafford plenty of time to get the ball around.

Wade

Wade is coming off some tough fantasy weeks, so is a bit tender when it comes to betting this week. Baby steps baby.
He does have some nuggets of gold that he sees, after correctly picking the Panthers and Broncos to go 2-0 at this point despite the odds.

Lions +8

Lamar might be back, but much of their team is down to injury. After an emotionally inspired win over the Chiefs in week 2, Baltimore might simply be out of gas (like Britain) after that game.
Detroit finds a way to grab points in garbage time, so it seems foolish to totally count out Goff when he has so much to prove.

Saints +3

Bill Belichick always has a plan, but so does Jameis Winston. ‘Chuck it deep.’
It seems a bit insulting to favour the Patriots by 3 after the whooping that the Saints laid on the Packers in week 1. Mac Jones will struggle against this D, and Kamara looks to have a beast of a game.

Bengals +3

Pittsburgh is a bunch of broken toys after week 2, losing key parts of their D. Once TJ Watt was out last week, the team collapsed on itself. The Bengals on the other hand almost came back from the Bears, and will be motivated to knock out the pesky Pittsburgh team.

Bears +7

7 points is a lot to give to a broken Baker Mayfield who is missing some of his key receivers.
Justin Fields gets his start after being okay’ish against the Bengals last week.
Chicago might lose this game, but they won’t get blown out.

Join us at the Sports Bar and Grill Old Street on Sunday to watch all the games until the wee hours.
We will also be giving away the DraftKings tickets, so make sure you come along to watch all the games in action.

Old Street Sundays

Located directly across from the fabled Old Street tube station, the pub is centrally located with access to the Northern Line, Network Rail, and oodles of late buses across the capital.
Best of all, it’s open late on Sundays and not as stabby as Leicester Square.

History

We have a storied history promoting the NFL at the Sports Bar and Grill’s, going back to 2007 at the olde Marylebone location.
Those of you who joined us back then might remember how difficult it was to stream games, not to mention dodgy wifi, leaky toilets, and a tiny room where we jammed Madden tournaments.

Martin the manager is back though, so all feels right in the world again as we look ahead to another great season of the NFL.

Sundays

Sunday funday brings us the NFL, as well as the inconvenience of the 4:30pm Premier League games.
Luckily, the SB&G has dedicated NFL areas for fans not into watching the north London teams taking a beating from a south London rival.

Don’t want to hear a Spurs fan moan? Move to the NFL side where the games are about to kick off.

Football is still the life blood of England, which means the 4:30pm match will still be on when the NFL kicks off.
Not to worry though, the bar still has a great selection of games, and once the match is over, EVERYTHING gets switched over to the NFL.

So if you walk and everything feels very ‘soccer-y’, have no fear, the games will be on shortly after.

The bar will show all of the 9pm games, with a 12am last call.
Make sure you get your booze orders in prior to then so that you can enjoy the end of the matches.

Food and Drink

The Sports Bar & Grill Old Street has a vast menu of fare to keep your stomach happy all night.
Add to that some cold pints on tap, and your Sunday just got a lot more chill.

Order from one of the friendly servers, or simply download the app to make your night convenient.

Week 2 London

by

Week 1 is done and dusted, and what a crazy week that was.

From an insane Bucs demolition of the Cowboys, to the Packers cheesing it up, and the Falcons getting battered…again…it’s nice to have the NFL back.

With another set of games on the way, we wanted to let you know some places in the city to watch Week 2 London.

Old Street

The Sports Bar and Grill Old Street is one of the most amazing sports bars in the city.

With over 40+ TVs, booths with their own TVs, pool tables, and NFL in every corner, you can’t go wrong with the Sports Bar Old Street.

Located directly across from the tube station, this newly renovated pub smells and looks great. (something you don’t get from most sports bars!)

Better still, the SB&G Old Street is open until 12:30am Sunday night, allowing you to watch the second set of games, finish your drinks, and not feel to be rushed out the door.

Our team will be there for Week 2, running a few DraftKings contests if you feel like playing along.
Make sure you’re there for week 3, as we are giving away 2 tickets to Dolphins vs Jaguars to our contest winner.

Best of all, Old Street is one of the biggest rail hubs in the city.
It’s well served by the tube, national rail and stops north and south of the city until midnight.

The pub offers Sky Sports, Redzone and Gamepass.

Clapham

If you’re in south London, why not pop into the Sports Bar & Grill Clapham?

Located right off the high street, this lovely sports bar is full of 30+ TVs, great food, and close to one of the most hopping high streets in London.

The Sports Bar & Grill Clapham is proud to promote the NFL every Sunday, and their hospitable staff will do what they can to make sure that you can watch the game you want, paired with great food and drink.

The SB&G Clapham is open until 11pm, which means that you can watch the first set of games and part of the next set, but sadly they will not show the 9pm games in their entirety.

South London is your next NFL destination, make sure that you get in touch so that you can book  table for Sunday.

https://www.sportsbarandgrill.co.uk/clapham/party-booking

The pub offers Sky Sports, Redzone and Gamepass.

Crouch End

Although there is no tube station in Crouch End, it’s very close to many transport links to central London and beyond.

The Princess Alexandra Pub is a lovely little boozer that has plenty of TVs and great burgers, wings and beer.

Close to Finsbury Park station, as well as Hornsey rail station and the W7 bus, visitors to the Alex can be at Kings Cross station in less than 20 minutes.

The pub is also VERY close to Tottenham Hotspur stadium, which means it’s a great place to party before the games and after.
It’s a 15 minute bus ride on the W3 direct to the stadium, so you can be in the pub in no time after the game.

Let us know if you want us to book you a table at the Princess Alex for a Sunday!

It’s a very celeb neighbourhood, so you never know who might be watching the games with you!

That’s it this week for NFL pubs we can recommend.

Sadly, too many places don’t actually care about NFL fans, and won’t even start the games until AFTER the 4:30pm Premier League game is over.

Other venues might show it one week, then forget the next…or a new manager might just decide to cancel showing it.
One thing you won’t find in the UK, is NFL consistency!

The pubs we listed above, are the best places in London to catch the games.

See you Sunday!
