17 Thoughts

January 3, 2022 by nflinlondon

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.

Santa’s Slay

December 23, 2021 by nflinlondon

What a wild wicked week in the NFL as COVID, injuries, winter and Christmas all had a kick at the league.

Could things get worse for week 16? Who knows?
Hold my beer, as Wade & Ryan break down their week 16 picks in this Santa’s Slay podcast.

NFLinLondon · Santa’s Slay-W16-Ep 179

If you’ve made it thus far in your fantasy season, congrats!
If you’re already out of your league, no worries…you have another 10 months until the season kicks off again.

Among some of the games Wade & Ryan look at in this podcast, includes:

Browns (7-7) vs -8 Packers (11-3) +44.5

Cleveland steams into week 16 with loads of of issues and plenty of room to screw up.
Baker’s play has been as bad as his acting, with the Browns struggling to make anything happen in another dismal year.

Aaron Rodgers is on his farewell toe tour, watching his MVP chances slip away the more airtime that he gives to Pat Mcafee.
Despite all of this, Rodgers keeps the Packers in the hunt, only to eventually tank in the NFC championship.

A-Aron should continue his winning ways here, as the Browns have been a stinky butthole all season.

Ryan and Wade both think that 8 points is a bit of stretch given that the Browns have quite a few players returning form injury.

Ryan-Packers 26 Browns 23
Wade- Packers 28 Browns 24

-3 LA Rams (10-4) vs Vikings (7-7) +49.5

The Rams continue to trudge towards the playoffs, losing players to COVID and injury along the way. Stafford is trying to carry the team on his bad back, but it’s the defence that has been providing the glue in the tight games.

The Vikings are pains in the butts for many teams. Despite not being good enough to go all the way, they are good enough to play havoc with some of the better teams in the league.
They have enough talent to rip seams in the fabric of better teams, and ruin their chances of spotless playoff play.

Wade is big on the Vikes on this one, as they always play games close, and add a bit of flavour to the proceedings.
Ryan agrees with Wade’s passionate prediction, making both guys big on Minnesota on Sunday.

Wade- Vikings 30 Rams 28
Ryan- Vikings 30 Rams 27

Bills (8-6) vs Patriots -2.5 (9-5) +43.5

Weather this game will be close or not, should be down to the wind, after the last contest was a freeze out.

Mac Jones was perfect in his 3 passes, as Bill Belichick continues to lead penalty free football into the post season. The Patriots will be lucky to face the same Buffalo team, who started to adapt to Bellicose Bill in the second half.

Buffalo needs this win like a wing needs sauce. Dry rubbing their skin into the playoffs isn’t a good idea, as they continue to slide down the ranks of playoff potential.

Ryan is big on Buffalo this weekend, and has all the faith in Josh Allen to thwart the pugnacious Pats in a tight Sunday.
Wade agrees, and thinks this the chance for Buffalo to right the ship into the clear harbour.

Ryan-Bills 24 Patriots 20
Wade- Bills 21 Patriots 18

Sweet Week 16

December 22, 2021 by nflinlondon

We’re hitting that time of the Christmas holidays where we start to lose track of days. 

Has Santa come yet? Was I good? Is COVID still a thing? Is it too early to drink? Is it too early to be drunk?
So many questions, and not enough answers.
Luckily, we are headed into a Sweet Week 16 of games.

Week 15 came in like unwanted holiday in-laws, making a big production and staying way longer than anticipated.
‘Get the heck out 15, I’ve got playoffs and Fantasy Pool playoffs on tap.
Stop bothering us with your nonsense.’

That nonsense is once again COVID, which crashed through the NFL party table like a member of the Bills Mafia, and looks ready to make another run at the table.
Go home COVID, you’re drunk!

Week 15 taught us a lot of other things like…

-Tom Brady acts like a little bitch when you shut him out

-Jared Goff can still ball…it just takes 15 weeks to warm up.

-The Packers look to chump out of the NFC race despite leading it

-The Bears still suck

-The Bills are contenders…just not winners.

Luckily, we have some great games on tap for Week 16 in the NFL.
Among some of the more exciting things we are looking forward to for these matches is:

Boxing Day

Boxing Day in Britain is a historic occasion of sport, ever since Kris Kringle knocked out Neville Chamberlain in the 30s’. 

Brits get up early to shake off that Crimbo hangover, and heading down to the pub for an afternoon of sport. 

Luckily this year, the NFL is also rocking loads of Boxing Day games.
If you’re joining us at the Sports Bar & Grill Clapham or Old Street, make sure you book a table now so that you can watch the games on your own screen!

TNF

Thursday Night Football is a tough one for us Brits, as the games don’t kick off until 1:20am, with a slumbering finish of around 4am.
It’s the holidays and you have our COVID pass to stay at home, and watch this great TNF match on week 16. 

The Titans host the fast moving San Francisco 49ers, who have been chunking up wins a plenty over the past few weeks, positioning them to be 3.5 point faves for the game. 

The Derek Henry-less Titans are going that he makes a return, and allows them to continuing to punish other teams with the run, given that their wide receiver corps has been blown out by injuries. 

Christmas Games

The Green Bay Packers host a dilapidated Cleveland Browns team on Christmas Day for a 9:30pm GMT game. 

The Packers opened the line as 8 point favourites, which seems fair given that the Browns were missing most of their defence in a Monday Night loss to the Raiders. 

Aaron Rodgers will be sure to point out his turf toe en route to tossing 4 TDS and taking advantage of another team ripped apart during this season 

Another great Christmas game sees the Colts visiting the Arizona Cardinals, who have a home favourite line of 1.5 points.
Kyler and the boys took a beating at the hands last week of the lowly Dee-Troy-it Lions.
The Lions. 

Indianapolis rolled over the Patriots in Week 15, and it seems likely that Jonathan Taylor will have another big Christmas Day of Ho Ho Ho’ing. 

NFL Boxing Day

Loads of great games on tap for Week 16 Boxing Day games.
Put on your jammie pants, crack some morning beers, or join us in London! 

Some of the key game we are looking at includes: 

Lions vs Cardinals

The Lions are high on pride after an upset win over the top seeded Cardinals in Week 15. They look to take a bite out of Atlanta Falcons who are favoured at home in this contest by 4. 

Is Jared Goff enough? The way his team is playing…yes!

Ravens vs Bengals

The battle of the AFC North reaches its pinnacle on Sunday, as the Bengals host the Ravens in an early afternoon game.
The Ravens enter Week 16 as 2.5-point underdogs with the moneyline currently listed at about +120. Odds from https://www.sportsbettingdime.com/

This will be a massive game with big implications, and both teams will need to play off their heads to grab the division lead. 

A healthy Lamar Jackson can change a game with his feet, and how about the hot slinging JT Huntley?
This game will be epic!

Bills vs Patriots

Belichick will be channeling the dark force, as he hopes to snag a divisional win against the struggling Buffalo Bills. 

Buffalo fans will be nervously watching this one, and sending as much bad karma Boston’s way all day. 

The Patriots opened the line as 2.5 point favourites at home. 

Steelers vs Chiefs

The battle for the AFC isn’t as illustrious as it once was, as Pittsburgh slumps away from the post season with a limp Big Ben. 

Patrick Mahomes isn’t as flash as he was in previous years, but is till hoping he can make some home magic despite losing Travis Kielce in this contest. 

Sports Bar Action

If you’re looking to watch these week 16 games, feel free to join us at the Sports Bar & Grill Old Street and Clapham Junction. 

It will be a busy weekend of sport ahead, so make sure that you book your table, so that you can watch the games on your own TV.

13 Tips

December 5, 2021 by nflinlondon

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

November 30, 2021 by nflinlondon

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.

Sunday Funday

Join us every Sunday at the Sports Bar & Grill Clapham and Old Street, as we rock out to NFL all night long.

Sundays will get busier in December, so make sure that you book a table to ensure that you can watch all the games on the comfort of your own TV.
