Week 11 Preview

by

It’s time for the Week 11 Preview podcast!
Wade & Rya got up early on Sunday morning to broadcast this sucker, and put in some good research-so that you don’t have to.

The boys also touch on the following hot topics in the podcast:

Myles Garrett

What a tool he was, and a very lucky man that the helmet didn’t connect with Mason’s jar. We would be talking about a whole new criminal. This was a dirty game, and one that the refs needed to keep an eye on. They didn’t obviously.

Tua

Ouch! Poor kid. Watching him wriggle and scream in pain was one of the hardest things to watch on Saturday. The whole ‘Tank for Too’ chant is now over, as he needs to work on rehab and getting himself healthy. Football doesn’t matter as much when you consider you have one life.

Knee to the Head

Were you watching the Georgia vs Auburn game on Saturday? Well a side line girl took a solid knee to the head, and what an ouchie that turned out to be. Luckily, she’s ok-but it reminds you that you always need to have your heads up on the sideline.

Sunday Funday

by

Week 11 is here already!
Holy crap this season has smoked by quicker than you can imagine.

So where are you watching the big games on Sunday?
If you have never been to London before and are expecting an NFL experience like back in North America, you are going to need to temper down your expectations.

London is NOT a 24 hours city, sports bars generally close by 11, and the casinos are a great place to pay £8 for a pint and get no sound.
Or worse have your pockets picked.

It’s always nice when you can sort a traditional British pub that has NFL & is open late.

The Princess Alexandra in Crouch End is not central London, but it’s close enough to it that you can watch all the games and still be able to shoot back into town.

You can get to the pub either via Finsbury Park station or Hornsey or Harringay train stations.
Alexandra Palace is right up the hill as well.

There are 3 massive TVs, plus the largest projector in North London.
It’s a great place to watch the games as well as enjoy some wings, burgers, and tasty cold beers.

So join us this Sunday at the Princess Alexandra in Crouch End.
See you Sunday.

Week 7 Predictions

by

Week 7 is here…already!?!?
Holy crapola that just breezed by.
There are only 2 undefeated teams-with one of them looking like that they might be able to go all season. (Hint: The Patriots)

So who wins in Week 7?
Well our pundit Wade is fresh off a winning week and is ready to make his predictions.

Texans (4-2) vs (-1) Colts (3-2) +47.5
The Colts are coming off a bye week, while the Texans are coming off a strong victory against the Chiefs.
The Colts have one of the best O-Lines in league with a D to match.
Deshaun Watson is going to struggle and be chased, so hopefully he can make a few deep ball connections.
Colts are rested-& should win easily.
Colts Win.

(-2) Vikings (4-2) vs Lions (2-2-1) +44
The Lions were robbed last week in Lambeau, while the Vikings are high on their own supply after a home win.
Stefan Diggs seems to be placated after 2 deep balls, and Kirk Cousins is looking to silence his critics.
But is this the game to do it?
Doubtful.
The Lions will be angry after that tough loss, and motivated by the home dome crowd.
Hockenson should have a big day, as will Kerryon Johnson.
Lions to win.

(-3) LA Rams (3-3) vs Falcons (1-5) +54.5
Will the real Jared Goff please stand up?
He can’t. Because his O-line sucks.
Matt Ryan continues to toss loads of yards, but his D continues to let him down.
Will he be able to rally the troops at home?
Nope.
The Rams are ready to win after too many losses.
The Falcons are about to be humbled again/
Rams win easily.

(2-4) Chargers vs (-2) Titans (2-4) +40.5
Marcus Mariota is on the outs, and Ryan Tannehill is in!
What has happened to the Tennessee Titans?
They just can’t seem to get the gang together.
Funny that the Chargers are going through the exact same thing.
Except they seem to be in freefall. Continuous falling.
Titans will win at home.

(5-1) Saints vs (-3) Bears (3-2) +38
The Bears are fresh off a spanking from the the Raiders and a weak off.
The Saints continue to thrive without QB Drew Brees.
Teddy Bridgewater seems to get them through, but it’s really Sean Payton who seems to be out coaching the opposition.
This will not be his week as the Bears are at home, and looking for win #4.
Bears win.

Lions vs Packers

by

Who likes garbage?
Nobody except NFL referees, as they tossed garbage around the field in the name of penalties.

This was an atrocious day for refereeing in the NFL and they should either be shamed, blamed, benched or fired.
Having ref’d a few high school games in my day, even I would walk off the field if I was dinged for a ‘too many men on the field’ call.

The Detroit Lions feel robbed, and rightly so.
The officiating in the NFL is getting worse, how does this happen?
How do we have more scrutiny on the game and in their ears, and they continue to make horrible and dishonest calls.

Either they’re too dumb, or they’re on the take.
When you’re making $200,000 a year, your eyes and your ears should be on form for the game, but not these guys.

Someone needs to start a ledger of which refs continually screw up, and then trash them.

It’s really starting to ruin the game, and someone has to do something.

Now the Packers are 5-1. Way to go refs!

 

Week 5 Picks

by

Wade McElwain & Ryan Cull are happy that the NFL is in town. Wade’s Bears look to feast upon the dead souls of the Raiders in a soggy contest at London’s Tottenham stadium.

In this video of podcast #67, they vodcast the crap out of this match, as well as provide valuable tips to visitors to London.

They then break down all of the week 5 matchups hitting the screens this Sunday & Monday.

Including

Ravens (2-2) vs Steelers (1-3)
Will the Steelers pull off a win at home? Wade thinks so, and is betting his house on it. Luckily, he rents. Ryan takes the Ravens to win, despite himself.

Bears (3-1) vs Raiders (2-2)
Welcome to London kids! This home town match will see a wet one in the city with 2 inches of rain over the match. Go under.

Vikings (2-2) vs Giants (2-2)
Are the Giants really 2 & 2? Guess so, the injuries haven’t helped, and the return of Golden Tate might bring some fantasy fancy. Both guys have the Vikings to prevail though. You there Kirk?
