Wild Picks
The regular season is over, and it’s time to get ready for the post season, as we look ahead to the weekend ahead in the NFL in our Wild Picks podcast.
Wade & Ryan are ready for the big weekend ahead even if the games are really late, and the bars are all closed.
The NFL is town, time to get sorted.
The guys look at the five big games on tap for the Wildcard Weekend and make their predictions for the spread, score, and more.
Have a listen and laugh at this new episode, exclusive to NFL in London fans!
Among some of the guys picks for the Wildcard Weekend.
Raiders (10-7) vs -5.5 Bengals (10-7) +48.5
Two AFC teams who are bruised and battered after a lengthy regular season, as well as the shortest time to play games of any of the post season teams.
The Raiders have been humbled by injuries, arrests, suspensions, and drama this season, so its any wonder that they have emerged to be able to take a run at the playoffs.
Derek Carr has carried on the team on his back, but how long can his back hold out given the circumstances?
The Bengals pushed towards the playoffs by being absolute beasts, with Joe Burrow ripping the field apart thanks to Chase and the boys.
It’s hard not to see how the Bengals won’t continue their winning ways, with a home town weather forecast that will scare the black and silver off the Las Vegas team.
Wade & Ryan both like the Bengals to win, but predict a closer game than the pundits in Vegas.
Ryan- Bengals 30 Raiders 27
Wade- Bengals 30 Raiders 28
Patriots (10-7) vs -4 Bills (11-6) +43
It’s going to be another cold night in western New York, as the Bills host the Pats for a second time this season. The first game didn’t bring joy to Buffalo, so hopefully they can get that happy step in action to take out another win against these division rivals.
Bill Belichick will erase one part of the Bills squad, but which one? And does he have enough rubber to burn out more than one Buffalo player? Seems unlikely.
Wade & Ryan are both nervous about this game, but given that Ryan is a massive Bills fan…his nerves are a bit more frayed.
They both have the same score though!
Ryan-Bills 27 Pats 20
Wade-Bills 27 Pats 20
That’s it for the Saturday scores, we will have our Sunday predictions up tomorrow, or you can just listen to the podcast to hear it all.

Memes 18
And just like that, the 2021 NFL regular season is done and dusted.
What a crazy and wild ride this season has been! COVID, lies, injuries, COVID lies, and more injuries have led to a truly stellar season.
This was the first NFL season to add a Week 18, which has either tickled or infuriated fans.
Giddy fans are happy to have an extra week of football action, while purists are pissed that records will change, new legends will rise without merit.
One things that hasn’t changed, is our love of NFL memes. Those perfect combinations of picture, and text burn all in one lovely piece.
Here are some of our fave memes from Week 18, please enjoy them!

17 Thoughts
What another wild penultimate ending to the NFL as we cruise even further towards the playoffs.
With some truly bizarre incidents that went down, we offer some week 17 thoughts on the whole shebang.
AB
What can you say about what happened with Antonio Brown? In a truly sad meltdown in the third quarter against the Jets, AB took off his shirt and quit football.
A public mental health breakdown spiralled into AB leaving the Bucs and the NFL.
Whatever it was that transpired in the game, the selfish shutdown of his team was felt in shock as we all witnessed a collapse under pressure.
As Tom Brady said, now is the time to feel empathy for Antonio Brown, and he’s a grown man who needs to own up to his feelings and responsibilities.
Tom Brady
Tom Brady took an early punch to his beautiful chin as the Jets took a quick lead against the stunned Bucs.
He then had to watch in disbelief in the meltdown of AB, a guy he vouched for, stayed at his house, played with his kids.
TB12 did what he does, delivering a last minute knockout to the Jets, and offering perhaps the classiest and touching take on the AB situation. Be nice, and leave him alone.
Rodger That
Aaron Rodgers and the Packers won again, beating another depleted team at home and securing a spot in the cheddar tundra.
Making it look easy against a Cousins-less squad, Green Bay only have the plucky Lions left in a final fun blowout.
All this to lose in the NFC final.
Chase
Jamar Chase is just awesome. The rookie blasted his way to another Sunday of stats, making any fantasy final a blowout thanks to his crazy day.
Leaping over last seasons’ rookie Jefferson, Chase was a beast this season in fantasy points and looks to do the same heading into the post season.
Chase and Burrow are truly going to put on a smoke show heading into the playoffs.
Bears
Was it that the Bears were awesome or that the Giants truly do suck, as Chicago Bears romped to a Nagy-happy win on Sunday.
The Bears put up 29 points, but the win really went to the D, who absolutely trounced poor Mike Glennon and the hapless Gmen.
Chicago had a really bad season thanks to injuries, coaching and coaching through injuries, so hopefully the owners will steer the ship in the right direction.
Pats
Your friend from Bawstawn is loud on the Sam Adams again, as the Patriots are once again headed to the playoffs looking like a threat.
Sure, they beat the Jags who suck harder than a gas station vacuum, but by putting 50 points on the legs of 2 running backs, New England is solid again.
No one is going to want to face the Patriots the first round, but they won’t have the legs to vomit all the way to the finish line.
Rammy
Matt Stafford and the Rams continue to look average, as he has been completing more passes to his D than he does to his receivers.
Sean Mcvay should be nervous, as his only game plan is to rely on the legs of Sony Michel. The Rams have been iffy since they lost Robert Woods, and it doesn’t look like it’s going to get better.
Saints
How bout dem Saints? New Orleans put up an easy win over the ruined Panthers.
Taysom Hill was able to eek out a low scoring win as the Saints look to snag one of the last playoff spots of the season.
It’s the Saints D that really is the difference here, as them with the solid legs of Kamara could really put a dent in one of the first rounds if they can get the slot.
