Packers London

Scoff Season

March 3, 2022 by nflinlondon

Well, that’s it for the 2021 NFL season.
Did it go as you expected?

Congrats once again to the LA Rams, and to our man Wade for picking them to win at the start of the season!
Great payoff!

Now that the NFL is done for the next 6 months, what the heck do we do now?

Well, there’s the USFL coming our way in April, a war in Ukraine, and whatever the heck the Raiders have planned for the offseason (probably more deaths than in Ukraine).

Wade & Ryan are back in action for our latest podcast, where they talk about this Scoff Season.

NFLinLondon · Scoff Season-Ep 191

Among some of the things that the guys discuss in this episode includes:

London Games

Hooray! More games for us!

The NFL announced that the following teams will be hosting games in London in 2022. The New Orleans Saints, the Jacksonville Jaguars, and the Green Bay Packers.

For those of you counting, that’s the first trip across the pond for the cheese-heads, and should tickle the marbles of any Wisconsinite this side of Illinois.

While we don’t know who these will be playing (you can see our picks in another article), we do have our guesses.

Regardless, the UK will be A-ok in 2022 with 6 teams coming to visit us.

Rodgers That

What the heck does the dastardly Aaron Rodgers have planned for the 2022 season?

More vaxy lies for us?

This wannabe $50 million dollar man has been coy about his plans for this season, and his said that he will give us the goods in the next few weeks to not draw us out over the summer (thanks).

The Packers will need to pony up $75M for both players, which is about a 1/3 of their total salary cap.

All that just to choke out in the NFC playoffs?

TB22

Tom Brady is retired…or is he?

Tommy Boy left the Bucs after getting dumped out by Matt Stafford and the champion Rams.

But does he still have some gas left in the tank for another run?

He is a SoCal boy, so maybe the 49ers will come calling.

We will have more NFL news about the London games, as well as all the fun things to do in the capital once you’re here!
Watch this space.

London NFL 2022

March 1, 2022 by nflinlondon

Well if that wasn’t a nice surprise, as the NFL announced some of the teams that we can expect in London in 2022.

The New Orleans Saints will come marching back this fall, the Jaguars will once again host a London game, and the Green Bay Packers finally make a much awaited visit to Blighty in 2022.

When and where do all of these games take place?
No idea.
But we do have some ideas, so let’s break them down.

International Games

We know that every team will have to play at least once every 8 years in an international home game either in the UK, Germany, Mexico or Canada.

While the exact number of games each year is up in the air, we know that in 2022 England will get 3 games, Germany 1, Mexico 1, and Canada can suck it.

We also know that the general rule is that AFC teams will be playing NFC teams, so that the games don’t affect their divisional standings as much.

Mexico

Who can forget the Mexico City game a few years back when thousands of laser pointers found Tom Brady’s eyes in Patriots beat down.

This time fans will struggle with their pointers, as the QB coming this year is the diminutive Kyler Murray.

Fresh off a disappointing 2021 season, Kyler and the Arizona Cardinals will be saying ‘Ola’ to Mexico City in one of the shortest international trips for a team.

While no team has been submitted as the opponent of the Cards, we would like to think that it will be a garbage team with a minuscule Latino connection.

Their home opponents for 2022 include: Seahawks, 49ers, Rams, Chiefs, Chargers, Buccaneers, Saints, Eagles and Patriots. 

Given that the Patriots and Saints are already playing internationally, we are predicting their 2022 Mexico opponent will be the LA Chargers.

Germany

As the biggest NFL fanbase in Europe, Germany is finally due to host its first international game in Munich 2022.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be heading to Germany in 2022, without Tom Brady and many of the stellar stars who won the SuperBowl last year.

Despite not having the marquee line-up of years past, German fans will be in for a real treat as the Florida men make an international trek to Bavaria.

Looking at the Bucs 2022 home opponents, there are several teams that can be discounted as potential rivals.
The Packers, Saints, Rams and Bengals all seem unlikely given their own schedules, leaving a few options as to their German counterparts.

If the format does indeed favour cross-conference play, then the most likely opponent for the Bucs would be the Baltimore Ravens.

London Games

We have three big games in London for 2022!

What games will we get?

Here we make our predictions.

Jaguars

Like a faithful old dog, the Jaguars are back at our side for the 2022 season in a Wembley Stadium contest.

Fans who were hoping to get a taste of that Urban Meyer wiener will be sadly disappointed, as the Jags will once again attempt to provide us with a ‘new look.’

The Jaguars line-up of home competitors is a lack lustre as one would think, with the Giants, Broncos, Texans, Colts, and Raiders in the mix.

Given the woes of the G-Men the past several years, the New York Giants would be out pick as the Jaguars 2022 opponents.

Saints

The New Orleans Saints were last in London in 2017, when Drew Brees was the gunslinger, and the team felt like it had a chance.

With Taysom Hill under centre, and Alvin Kamara under fire, this is not the same Saints team of years past.

Looking at the Saints home opponents for 2022, including the Bucs, Bengals, Rams, and Seahawks, the one team that sticks out is the Las Vegas Raiders.

Fresh off their own hellish season in 2021, the Raiders could probably use a trip away, to get their players to start using taxis.

So at this juncture, we think that the Saints will be playing the Las Vegas Raiders.

Packers

The latest big news to hit the Uk, is that the Green Bay Packers will finally be making the trek across the pond, making them the 32nd team to do so.

With Drama Mama Aaron Rodgers still on the team, one wonders if a London trip that he would make.

Many players are quite vocal of their disdain for jaunting across the Atlantic, and Aa-Ron has never been one to mince words.

Having Green Bay come to London is obviously a HUGE boost, and will be the most sought after of all the games.

Given that the Packers have home opponents including the Bears, Rams, Lions and Patriots…the most likely of all to return to London, would be the Tennessee Titans.

The New York Jets played here last year, so they might be given a break after their years of hustling to the UK under the Woody Johnson years.

Of course it’s too early to tell, but we will let you know as we know more.

It’s going to be a great season of the NFL in London for 2022!

SB55 Podcast

February 15, 2021 by nflinlondon

It’s been a week since the Tampa Bay Bucs slapped around the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl. Now that the dust is settled, it’s time for our SB55 Podcast.

Wade McElwain and Ryan Cull reflect on the big game a week later. Why did this game get away from the Chiefs? Do the Chiefs need another wide receiver? Is drunk Tom Brady the best Tom Brady of all time?
All these questions and more in this post Super Bowl review show.

Among some of the other things that the guys discuss in the podcast includes:

Defence

They say that a ‘D’ wins a SuperBowl, and boy was that the case on Feb 7th. Patrick Mahomes was rushed, chased and stuffed as the Bucs D broke through the Chiefs line with ease. The big talking point heading in was how the Chiefs were hoping to contain the Bucs with 3 weak O linemen up front.
This was the story of the game, as the Chiefs had no way to stop the rush, and give Mahomes an iota of breathing space. The Bucs were essentially able to negate the running game with this blistering pace as well, as the line of scrimmage was snuffed out very quickly.
Maybe the Bucs didn’t have the best D in the league on paper, but all that matters is the big game.

JJ Watt

The Texans released JJ Watt without a whimper this week, signalling that all was not well on the home front.
Houston has continued to blunder their front office in the past few years, letting Bill O’Brien flip the switch like an entitled stepdad, and mismanaging numerous high profile contracts.
The way that the Texans handled the Deshaun Watson scenario must have made Watt’s ears bleed, and he must have just been totally fed up to the point he wasn’t even going to discuss terms anymore.
JJ Watt has been a shining example to the city of Houston. His performance on the field has been matched by his community efforts off the pitch. When a hurricane battled Houston, Watt did everything he could to wrap his arms around the city. That kind of class is hard to find.
Watt will have plenty of options for his broken, bent, but still able body.
Moving to Steeltown to be with his brothers might be creepy, a jump up to the Bills could be fun, but a return trip home to Green Bay seems more than likely.
Who’s got the cash to spot JJ?

Wentz

Imagine being the ginger step-child of the league, both literally and figuratively, and that’s called being Carson Wentz.
Wentz and the Eagles are hoping to find a way to offload the QB, as well as not eat a big chunk of useless money in the process.
Watching Wentz trying to get out of Philly is like watching one of those baby turtles try to make it for the open ocean. You hope he can make it to the clear blue, but there is an expectation that a huge wave or hungry gull is going to swallow it all up.
Carson isn’t done in the league, but he has a hell of an audition ahead if anyone wants to consider him as a starter in this fast moving league.

Trophy Karen

Leave it to the press to kind the most annoying person to talk to post Super Bowl. Apparently a ‘Trophy Karen’ is all upset because when Tom Brady threw the Lombardi trophy, it was disrespectful to her father and other silversmiths, and she would PERSONALLY like an apology. Entitled much?
First her father worked on the trophy in the 1960s, and didn’t design the trophy. He just worked there.
Secondly, a new Lombardi Trophy is made every year for each team, so it’s up to them what they want to do with it. (ask Gronk).
Thirdly…who the hell cares? Why did the press give this odious woman coverage time? In the age of Covid, BLM, equality, war, and a whole host of problems…an entitled woman with nothing to do with a headline, wants something to do with a headline…and an apology.
Say goodbye to your social media ‘Trophy Karen’, pretty sure you’re going to need to go away for a while.

This was our first SuperBowl on record that we weren’t able to throw a London party this year and we’re gutted.
With the NFL 2021 season a scant 6 months away, we will work hard to see if we can find a way for us all to enjoy the games in public once again.
The 2021 NFL London games are a go (fingers crossed), hopefully we can all get together soon.

Have a listen, a laugh, and make sure you share this podcast asap or Tom Brady wins again next year.
It’s true.
