SuperBowl Review Podcast

by

The SuperBowl is done and dusted, congratulations to the Chiefs, Kansas City, the state of Missouri, and of course Patrick Mahomes. They defeated the 49ers in epic style, and made for one of the more entertaining SuperBowl’s in the Tom Brady era.

Our podcast is back after a wee break from everything NFL. Wade is joined by our very own Brit Callum Squires as we jump back into all things NFL.

In this episode the guys talk about all of the big issues in the NFL at the moment, including:

SuperBowl 54. What happened in the game, what were the refs doing, and what a machine Patrick Mahomes is.

Tom Brady. What’s up with this dick-tease? Is he really going to leave bean town, or is he just testing the waters to see what the Pats will do?

Drew Brees. Db is back with the Saints for another year. What does the team need to do to excel at the next level.

Taysom Hill. If Drew is back, what about Taysom? Should be looking at a starting role somewhere else, or should be a happy back-up?

Phillip Rivers- 9 kids and fired from his job. Where’s a good River to flow?

Myles Garrett. He’s back, and immediately calling ‘racism’ again. Is this going to hurt the team?

Please make sure you listen, like, share and love this podcast.

Our thoughts go out to our buddy Ryan Cull, who is back in Canada taking care of family business. Can’t wait to have you back bro. You are missed.

 

SuperBowl Preview Podcast

by

SuperBowl 54 is finally here, & what an epic match-up. NFL fans can all unite that the 2 teams that made it thus far are truly deserving, and will provide one heck of a match-up.

Wade McElwain is joined by Chapman Maddox, a Falcons fan and expat who is a big supporter of all things NFL & UK.
They chat about the game, the potential, and some prop bets you might want to take a look at.

Who do you have to win this one? It’s a tight contest. The Chiefs are favoured by -1 & in some cases as high as -5, but can they justify this line? They have come from behind from their past games, while the Niners have barely thrown the ball because they don’t have to.
Are we overlooking San Fran.

Wade says yes, Chapman says no.

In this podcast the guys discuss.

QBs

Who is better between Mahomes & Jimmy G? Mahomes, obviously. Jimmy hasn’t been pressured into throwing yet, so this could be the game where he lights it up MVP style. What if he went off. Mahomes is favoured for MVP, but if the 49ers shut him down it might be a slow night.

RBs

San Fran has a triple headed monster of running backs, while the Chiefs have forgettable backs since Hunt. Sure they can score, but it’s off the legs & brains of Mahomes. The 49ers have the best shut down front in the game. 49ers at will.

TEs

Kelce vs Kittle. It’s the battle of the K’s and TE’s as these two will look to rip open the helps secondary with size & speed. Kelce is solid, but Kittle is a mystery. He hasn’t been used as of late, because he wasn’t needed. Look for Kittle to score first on a sneaky play.

D

San Fran has the edge D wise, but the Chiefs have made great strides to turn it up as of late. The 49ers will be too tight here, and their secondary gives them the edge across the board. Sherman is a pick machine, and he could have more than one if the game gets long.

Listen to the podcast, subscribe, share, name your child after it.

We will have more content up throughout the week.

Join us Sunday at the Long Acre for SuperBowl Sunday. See you then.

 

SuperBowl Germany

by

Wo siehst du das superbowl deutschland?
The NFL is HUGE in Germany, and we love interacting and engaging with our German fans every time that they come over to the UK.

We are planning some German events in 2020, so we wanted to hit the ground running first and find out where the best places to watch the NFL are in Germany.
So we have to ask….
Where do our German friends go to watch the game?

Games are generally 5 hours ahead of America, which means that German NFL fans don’t get to watch the games for at least 6 hours late.
Traditional bars aren’t usually open that late on a Sunday (are they?), so casinos and pop-ups must be the place to go.

If any of our German fans want to share where they celebrate the NFL, we will share it with everyone!

We have seen listings for some venues showing the SuperBowl on Feb 2nd, but do you have any venues where you can watch it every week?

Look forward to hearing from all of you!

Frank ‘F%C#Kin’ Clark

by

You gotta love Frank Clark. He gives 100% when he plays, and zero F#cks when the cameras are on him.

Luckily the smart folks at NBC had the ‘beep’ button ready, because they knew that Clark would go off on one of his many rants.  This is one of those times.

Clark went off on how the Chiefs were able to handle Derek Henry, who was only able to gain 68 yards on the day, when he had gashed for 377 yards the previous two games.

Clark didn’t let loose, dropping 8 words that needed to be bleeped.

He still rates the Chiefs D as the ‘best in the world’, but he will have to see for sure when they play the 49ers on Feb 2nd.

Sunday Picks

by

And then there were 4.
2 from the AFC, 2 from the NFC in the final battle to determine who goes to the Super Bowl.
We have been here every year since the NFL began, but Sunday is particularly sweet because there are no New England Patriots playing in this one.
It seems…nice.

So who wins the two games tonight?
Wade & Ryan break down their thoughts on the game, and make their predictions on who wins the games on Sunday.

Make sure you visit BetRegal to bet on the games, and play in our DraftKings Leagues to make your DFS picks.

Titans (11-7) vs -7 Chiefs (13-4) +53

The Titans have finally made it to the AFC final. Through some plucky plays, and the legs of Henry,  the Titans finally have a shot at the big game. Or do they?
Do they have a chance against these Chiefs who came back from a pounding to thrash the Texans?
Maybe.
The Chiefs can be scored on, which was evident last week.
The real question is can the Titans compete in a game when they go down by a few scores?
Then they have to rely on Tannehill, which won’t go well.
Both Wade & Ryan have the Chiefs downing the Titans comfortably and moving on to the SuperBowl.

Packers (14-3) vs -7.5 49ers (14-3) + 45

When these two teams met in Week 12, it was rather ugly. The Niners beat up on the Pack 38-7, and chased Aaron Rodgers all over the field.
Could the same happen again this week? Maybe.
But you can see how the Packers would have learned from that game, and applied some other routes to get Adams open.
Bosa will have his hands full of Bulaga, which should give Rodgers some more time.
Jimmy G had a stellar game last week, but doubtful if he will replicate that after the Packers D’s performance last Sunday.
The Packers should be able to keep it close, but both Wade & Ryan have the 49ers nudging out the game for a victory.

Both guys see the Super Bowl being made up from the Chiefs and 49ers.

Join us tonight at Long Acre where we will be watching the AFC contest. Bar closes after the game.

See you tonight!

 

 

Wade’s DraftKings Line-Up

by

Do you even DFS bro?
It’s daily fantasy NFL time, and I have compiled a list of players that you could put on your DraftKings line-up.
I did, and I won money last week, so it’s up to you.

It’s always tricky when you only have 4 games to choose from, because there are the obvious choices, but you need to make sure that you grab the high value targets, as well as be able to splash out on some of the cheaper options that will still give you points.
With some injuries across a few of the teams, there is value to be had I tell ya!

Here are some of the picks I made for my teams.

QB

Jimmy Garoppolo $5600

Yes, I overlooked Lamar, Partrick, Aaron & Russell, because I am looking for value.
The 49ers should be able to put up some points on a Vikings D that is weak against the deep pass.
Whether it’s Samuel or more likely Kittle, Jimmy G will at least get 2-3 touchdowns at home.
For $5600, he’s good value to let me choose other players.

RB

Gus Edwards $4900

Mark Ingram’s back-up? Yep. Ingram is hurt, but likely to play, so how will he be used?
Edwards will be used in a power back role, as well as in goal line situations, which makes him a safe bet for a few points. The Ravens won’t want to be throwing him into the line of fire, especially if they have a lead. So look for Edwards to be used in key roles.

WR

Deebo Samuel $5200

Samuel has had a fantastic season, despite coming into fruition a little late in the game. He has speed, great hands and can really get some good yards going after the catch. For $5200 he is great value for potential points. He has the speed to mess up Minnesota in the back field, and I like him to be cagey for the Vikes to deal with.

Tyreek Hill $7600

Splash that cash baby! Watch for the cheetah to totally blow past the Texans D on Sunday. How are they going to contain a guy that is totally healthy and ready to rip them a new one? His should easily surpass 100 yards and at least 1 TD on Sunday, so make sure you make room for him in your line-up.

TE

George Kittle $6200

Kittle is the man! The main TE this season who can get open, make the big plays and gash for yards after the catch. I can’t see how the Vikings will contain him. There are too many big players to worry about, and Kittle finds the holes then rips them open even further. Worth the spend.

DEF

Chiefs $3200

Everyone is healthy and at home. If (when) the Chiefs start building up a lead, DeShaun Watson is going to have to shuttle that ball around. So if he makes a mistake, who gets it? That’s right, the Kansas D.

Other players I chose this week include: Emmanuel Sanders (SF) $5400, Marquise Brown (BAL) $4400 & Aaron Jones (GB) $7400

So there’s my line-up for this weekend.

Wade’s DraftKings Line-Up

by

Do you even DFS bro?
I do, and I have created a DraftKings line-up for Wildcard Weekend so that you don’t have to!
Make sure you join our DraftKings League so that you can play against us every week and win cash and fame.
https://dkn.gs/r/kwxDR0JIokKPkA6cPjCtNA

So who are you choosing for your tea this weekend?
Who will give you the most bang for your buck for the points?

Let’s take a look at some of the dudes I have selection for my Wildcard DraftKings team.

QB

Deshaun Watson ($6400)

Of the 8 QBs playing this weekend, DW is the fastest, most scrambling QB of the bunch. With a bevy of WRs at his disposal, Watson will be looking to torch the Bills secondary. Buffalo has a fast front, so also look for him to dump the ball off, short pass it and of course run the ball. A good deal at $6400.

RB

Alvin Kamara ($7400)

Sure, the Vikings have a fast front D, but they also have to worry about Michael Thomas and Drew Brees. The Vikings will look to stop Kamara, but they may not be able to catch on to his pass options. Kamara will cause havoc in the backfield as he gashes them for yards. A bit pricey, but worth it.

WR

N’Keal Harry ($4100)

The Patriots have used Harry sparingly with good results throughout the season. When it comes to the blustery playoffs, TB12 will be looking at players who can both run and catch for short yardage. Enter N’Keal, who can do both. He won’t be the number one all day, but he will be used in strong situations where they need someone to beast it across the line, or for those redzone toss ups where the big man gets it. A steal at $4100.

TE

Jacob Hollister ($4300)

He was THIS close last week against the 49ers, and there’s a good chance we will see a lot of him this week. He can muscle his way up the middle, and has a big frame that’s hard to take down once he gets going. Hollister is coming up as one of Russell Wilson’s favourite targets, so he should get plenty of action this week given the injuries to the team. A good value TE at $4300,

DEF

Saints ($3000)

I like to look at the biggest point spreads when determining what D to take in DraftKings. For one thing, they will be losing and need to stage a comeback. Desperation yields necessity, and I necessarily think that the Vikings will go into a hole on Sunday. The Vikings like to do deep, so that means the ball will be up in the air a lot against a tough Saints D. For $3000 they have value.

Let’s break down the games and reasoning starting with.

AFC

Bills (10-6) vs -2.5 Texans (10-6) +42.5

The Bills have put together a pretty swell season this year. They outperformed everyone’s expectations, and Josh Allen has settled in nicely-using his legs to blast through weak defences.
The Texans have been plagued by injuries, and the D has struggled with injuries. Their real weapon has been the feisty Deshaun Watson, who humbles the opposition.
For me the real marker here is how they both played the Patriots.
The Texans smothered and deep choked the Pats en route to an easy victory.
The Bills however saw what the Titans will see later, a team in control.
Buffalo just doesn’t have enough tools to keep this one tight enough.
The Texans will be motivated at home, with JJ Watt looking to return to pump up this Texas sized reception.
Texans will just be too much for them.
Texans 24  Bills 20

Titans (9-7) vs -5 Patriots (12-4) +44

‘You lost to Miami’. That sentence will be ringing in the ears of all of the Pats this season.
It won’t sound very nice to them, and will serve as motivation this week.
They dismantled the Bills a few weeks ago, and it’s hard not to see how they won’t get back to that form.
A storm near Henry is looming over Foxboro stadium, and coincidentally it might look like Derek Henry.
Billy B always shuts down at least one piece of the opposition, so who will it be this week?
AJ Brown, Henry or Tannehill?
Weather will be a factor here, so look at taking the over.
When it comes to the final, it’s hard not to imagine the Patriots putting on a clinical operation on the Titans in a long, boring game.
Patriots 23 Titans 14

NFC

Vikings (10-6) vs -8 Saints (13-3) +49.5

Drew Brees at home in a dome. All of these things don’t point to a good result for the Vikings. Add to that the insult of the Diggs catch a few years ago, and you can see how the Saints would be motivated. Brees has been crushing records this season, and the team is riding high on his supply.
The Vikings are welcoming back their soldiers from injury. Cook and Thielen will be back in this game, but how healthy will they be against this tough Saints D?
While I like the Saints to win, I think the spread in this one is too high.
The Vikings have deep ball threat, and Zimmer will be looking to shake up the momentum of the Saints.
The Saints will win, but not by 8.
Saints 31 Vikings 24

-1.5 Seahawks (12-4) vs Eagles (9-7) +45

It beggars the mind that a 12-4 team would be a visitor in the playoffs, but here we are.
The Seahawks have been grounded this season by their running game.
They have been so devastated that they have resorted to Old Skittles, aptly name because his raging body sounds like a bag of Skittles when you shake it.
The Eagles are injured too, but their real injury is a mental one.
They haven’t really beaten anyone of respect this season, and they don’t exude the tools to win a championship.
Then there’s Russell Wilson, aka the Difference-Maker.
Seahawks 26 Eagles 20
