New Tears

by

Happy 2022 NFL in London fans! Did you have a cracking start to the new year, or has it all been a confusing jumbly mess, like last week in the NFL?

To commemorate the start of a new annum, we look back at the insane week 17 in our New Tears podcast.

Wade & Ryan look back at all of the wild and wacky week that was 17 in the NFL.

Antonio Brown

In a selfish, meltdown moment, AB lost the ply, jumping up and down in the end zone in the Bucs comeback against the Jets.

Team-mates were quick to interject that AB needs compassion for his mental health at the moment, and that he would no longer play for the team or the NFL.

AB came back to say that the team was drugging him through injuries, and he in no way felt in any condition to play. So he jumped up and down on his ankle in the end zone.

None of this makes sense, but what is becoming apparent is that TB12 has a lot of work and glue to use to get this Tampa Bay team back on track.

Bye Big Ben

In a teary goodbye game, Big Ben said goodbye to the Pittsburgh faithful in a home win against the sad sack Browns.

An emotional victory for Ben, as he waddles off into rehab pool of retirement-despite his Steelers technically in contention for a playoff spot.

Bakers Cooked

Trying to steal some of that retirement thunder was Baker Mayfield, who also quietly kind of retired on Sunday.

After Ben’s tear-jerking goodbye to the Steel City, Baker jumped into say that he is now done for the season, after playing through so many injuries.

Fans know that he should have NOT have tried playing through injuries, but that he also might not be back in Cleveland next season.

Chase Him

Jamaar Chase exploded last week, putting up over 40 points in some leagues with an epic demonstration versus the Chiefs touted D.

Breaking Justin Jefferson’s rookie record from the year before, the tandem of Burrow and Chase has been absolutely electric heading into the post season.

Washington Admirals

WFT has slowly been erasing all traces of ‘Redskins’ from their records, they made an announcement this week that they will finally be changing their official name in February this year.

Internet sleuths were quick to check domain registrations for potential team names, and low and behold the Washington Admirals pointed back to the team.

Is this the new name? Looks like it.

Giant Pains

The NY Giants took a beating from the Bears D in week 17, and limped off into to the post season with way more questions than answers.

The head coach has to go, the QB might need to be traded, and star running back Barkley might have more injury weeks ahead than playing weeks.

Both New York teams were horrible this year, but at least the Jets showed some signs of life, and have impressed with loads of rookies stepping up.

Playoffs in London

NFL Playoffs are coming up, and we will be working with the Sports Bar & Grill to promote them.

COVID has been another kick in the nutters, with many bars still struggling with consistent numbers and government information.

You can help by booking tickets ahead of time, so that the bar knows how many people to prepare for.

Week 15 Memery

by

Week 15 of the NFL came in like a crazy virus, spinning the league right round, turning everyone on their head, and making us all dizzy.

Do they not realise that many of us are on the road to the playoffs and/or preparing our NFL fantasy teams for the onslaught of the post season Covidity?

Thankfully, the pictures and words word perfect for week 15, as we offer up some of the Week 15 Memery that has captivated us all.

What were some of the big meme themes to hit this week?

Tom Brady getting shut out for the first time in his career was CLASSIC! If you have ever wanted to trash a Microsoft touch tablet, Tommy will show you how to do it.

Detroit Lions claim their first win of the season! That means once again the Jacksonville Jaguars are going to take top seed in the draft next year.
Like a leaky boat, the Jags keep flushing down picks and coaches.

Here are some of the big memes! Enjoy and see you Sunday!

13 Tips

by

Well, it’s already Week 13 in the NFL, where the heck did the season go?

Thanksgiving is a milky fart behind us, as the decorations set the tone for the season ahead.
With that being said, we offer you our Week 13 Tips, so that you can use our average advice to make stellar NFL picks.

Wade McElwain and Ryan Cull are fresh off their Week 12 picks, and ready to rock your world for this Sunday.

Ryans Picks

The Buffalo Bills may have won against the plucky Colts, but the division gets real this week, as the Bills host the Patriots, in what will most likely be a dildo filled afternoon.
Ryan won’t be betting on this game, but he does like his Bills to eek out a win.

Elsewhere, Ryan likes Justin Herbert and the LA Chargers (+3) to pop into Cincy and make a big old mess.
He thinks that not only will LA march into the Bengals tiger pit and cover, but that they will also win on the road as well!

The Las Vegas Raiders (-2.5) have had an abysmal turd of a season thus far, and it has nothing to do with their game play.
Coaching and injuries will be in the rear view for this game, as Ryan likes the Raiders to cause some hometown injuries to Cincinnati in a home win.

The Seattle Seahawks (+3.5) will win at home! That’s Ryan’s big pick of the week, as he has Russell Wilson and the boys dishing out justice in a tight win over the 49ers on Sunday night.
Will Russ cook again, or burn his fingers trying?

Lastly, Ryan is horsing around on the Broncos (+10) to cover on the high flying Chiefs.
While he thinks that Patrick Mahomes and company will easily dispatch Denver, it will be a lot closer than people would figure.

If you want to make money on Ryan’s brain, take the Chargers, Raiders, Seahawks and Broncos!
A £10 bet will net you £141.20

Wade’s Picks

Wade had some top tips to choose in Week 12? Did you take them?
His upsets might have paid off last week, let’s see about this week.

The New York Jets (+7) are back with Zach, as they face the Hurts-less Eagles on Sunday.
Gardner Minshew and his mania will be taking over, offering the Jets a window to cover against a Philly team looking to run.
It’s going to be cold, wet, and a miserable day for Philly.
Jets cover.

The Texans (+10) are another of the worst teams in the league, but Tyrod has a habit of making things closer than they appear.
Indianapolis Colts have a habit of losing to bad teams, and that could happen this week.
Maybe not lose, but give the Texans a bigger window than they need.

What’s up with the Washington FT (-2.5)? Losing Fitzmagic early in the season, the WFT adapted, and relied on their running game to eek out some wins over big teams.
Wade likes the WFT to disrupt the Raiders and home, and squeak out a cheeky little win while they are at it.

The Pittsburgh Steelers (+4.5) season is over. Big Ben has already been heard saying that this is his ‘last season’, and what a way to whimper out.
The Steelers at least had a playoff chance last year, but highly unlikely that they will make the playoffs this year.
With all the injuries on the Ravens squad, Wade likes the Steelers and their running game to keep it close.

If you want to take Wade’s picks of the Jets, Texans, Washington and Steelers, a £10 wager will net you a solid £151.20.
That’s some Christmas present joy right there in 13 tips!

Week 12 Reflections

by

With only 6 more weeks left in the NFL regular season (and 3 in your fantasy), it’s starting to look like some teams might emerge from this seasonal sludge to move on to a successful post season.

It also looks like that there are a few teams that have the potential to ruin another teams run just by their very nature of play.
Looking at you Colts and Eagles.

So join us, as we take a look at some Week 12 Reflections.

Steel Curtained

It certainly looks like the season might be over for the Steelers, after taking a heavy beating from the division rivals Bengals on Sunday.

Puffy Big Ben struggled to get it down the field, and the much vaunted defence may have lost TJ Watt for a few more games.

Pittsburgh has struggled to play with any vigor as of late, dropping its second in the series to Cincy, and it looks like they are ready to limp off to the offseason.

Brown Town

Baker Mayfield has been playing like an anus of late, most likely due to injuries that have plagued the QB for weeks.
There’s nothing to be gained from Baker ‘toughening’ it out, as he’s not tough, and not a hockey player.

The more that Cleveland allows Baker to suit up despite his myriad of injuries, the more likely that their experiment with Mayfield looks in doubt.

Let’s see if a Bye week fixes this situation, or if the Browns will continue to slide.

Russ is Cooked

Have you ever microwaved your food to much and seen the result?
This is what this season is feeling like in Seattle.

Russell Wilson looks tired, the O Line seems to have checked out, and Pete Carroll might be just calling it in, as the Seahawks took another lump, this time at the hands of the Washington Football Team.

Either Russ or Pete needs to go in Seattle, but maybe, it could be both of them.

Ramming Speed

The Rams continue to slide, after getting bitch smacked by the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night.

Something is wrong with Matt Stafford, as he seems to have lost some of that zip on the ball, even with the addition of OBJ.

The Packers were totally in control in this game, despite lacking some key O line personnel.
If LA can’t beat Green Bay when they’re down a few men, how would they be able to face them in the post season with a fully functional squad?

Sean McVay had some truly horrific play calling on Sunday, if you want to know where to start posting the blame.

Cam Damn

Superman is back! Superman got benched!

The Carolina Panthers were playing ok before they brought in Cam Newton a few weeks ago, now it looks to be going all downhill again.

Cam was horrible on Sunday, throwing awful passes downfield that were rightfully picked off as garbage.

Add to that was that the often injured Christian McCaffery was injured again.

And with that, the only thing that the Panthers have left to play for is that D…which will now probably also fall apart.

Vikes?

Who are the Minnesota Vikings this year?

A team that can beat the Packers one week, and then get stuffed by the 49ers the next.

Whoever the Vikes are this season.  the one thing that they are not are playoff contenders.

Dalvin Cook is now out for the season, leaving the Vikings to try to cobble together some wins with a skeleton crew of Mattison etc.

Minnesota still has the ability to upset a lot of the main contenders heading into the post season, which sometimes, can be just as exciting.

Lost Highway

by

What another odd week it was on Sunday as the league continued to balance itself in an enjoyable, yet unpredictable preview of the post season.

Wade and Ryan look back at the big Week 10 news in our Lost Highway podcast, aptly named because it feels kind of directionless in terms of an outright driver in this 2021 season.

Buc’d Again

TB12 and the boys ate another W in week 10, as their curse at the hands of the Washington Football Team held true.
Instead of having some sort of email dirt on Tommy, they must have resorted to witchcraft, as Tampa was stung by the football team.
Tommy should have been real angry after a loss heading into a bye, but they almost look over-focused in this double digit beatdown at the hands on Heinicke.

Lion Ties

Dan Patrick can hit the decaf this week, as Detroit was able to eek out a tie despite being handed the game by Pittsburgh.
It was a brutal game to watch in all directions, and luckily overtime made the time go bye between the two sets of game matches.
Lions still suck, so do the Steelers.

Dead Birds

Thanksgiving is coming, and the Falcons were the first sacrifice as the Cowboys roasted the birds at home in an easy Sunday game.
Dak and the boys blow out the candles on Matty Ice, in a fresh comeback after being slapped by the Broncos a week earlier.
Ryan ate a bag of dirty dicks after going back to his Falcons fix, and it bit him once again.
Once a junkie.

Vikes!

What’s going on Minnesota? No, really.
The Vikings upset a sparkless Chargers squad who seem to have lost the adapter to their outlet of output.
Kirk Cousins continues to look better than he is, as Cook cooked, and the wide receivers were able to pick up the slack.
