Holy crap! Live sports is back, & we can watch it live in the UK! Take a breath, what I’m about to tell you is awesome. Tom Brady & Tiger Woods vs Peyton Manning & Phil Mickelson in an 18 hole, 3 hour fiesta of golf & banter.

The Game

Even if you’re not a golf fan this game features two NFL legends who will be talking & competing for 3 hours of live golf fun.

Tee off is scheduled for 8pm GMT & should continue until 11pm. Sky sports will most likely air this, & other streaming apps will also air it. Alas Gamepass doesn’t have the rights.

The first 9 holes are a best 4 ball play, so our NFL stars will most likely be watching & contributing.

The next 9 holes will be a mixed bag of crazy golf type holes where they compete in challenges for charity.

The Teams

Golf legend Tiger Woods is teamed with NFL poster boy Tom Brady in a champion level team that makes you swoon just by saying their names together.

Their opponents are lefty legend Phil Mickelson with horse faced goof Peyton Manning, who both boast accuracy in their respective statistics.

Pey-Mann are favoured over TB Tiger 12 in this contest, as Brady is the most inferior golfer in this match. Vegas has this as an easy win.

NFL Player Trivia

How much do you know about the NFL?
Would you consider yourself a genius of the gridiron, or a straight up novice?
What is your QB IQ really like?

We have created a fun quiz for you to test your knowledge of NFL Players.
You need to be able to correctly identify the players in the quiz to get full points.
Can you get 25/25?

Some of these pictures are pretty tricky, so you will need an encyclopaedic knowledge of the players of old to be able to successfully get perfect on this quiz.
Answers for the quiz are at the bottom of this page.

Here are some of the top players we think of when we think of NFL GOATS.

Jim Brown

Jim Brown was an unstoppable beast. Not only did he crush everyone he ran into during the late 50s and 60s, he was also a badass mofo. Brown was intimidating on the field, as his running power was so strong, NFL weaklings of the era struggled to contain him.
Brown would be nightmare for the League this days, as he was always vocal about the calamity of events that were happening around him.
Whether it was segregation, the Vietnam War, or economic disparity-Brown always had an opinion.
Heck of an athlete and not a bad actor as well!

Walter Payton

‘Sweetness’ was not only one of the toughest, most fluid runners in the NFL, he was also a remarkably humble man as well. Payton was an iconic Bear, who was nearly unstoppable on the field. Despite the fact that he could easily rush a 100 yard game every week, he didn’t trash talk, didn’t gloat, didn’t rub success in others faces. A truly class act.

Joe Montana

Could there be a more iconic QB that Montana? He won so many awards, that many are now named after him. One of the most solid QBs in the SuperBowl, he was nearly perfect in several big games, and was a terror in the fourth quarter. If you have never watched any of his games, go back and watch them!

Barry Sanders

Another RB who could be considered the ‘classiest’ guy in the NFL. Sanders played with a quiet intensity that was terrifying. He could easily gash oppositions for tonnes of yards, yet he too has one of the most humble players on the planet. He retired before than he really had to, and when Barry talked, the world listened. Always tough to try to make a career in Detroit, but he never turned his back on the city, and gave them everything he had.
