National Football League in London

NFL in Clapham

by

South London has often been under served when it comes to American football.

Sure, the London Warriors might reign supreme in British football, but when it came to watching the games on a Sunday, there was much left to be desired.

Thankfully now all that has changed, now that the Sports Bar & Grill is showing the NFL in Clapham.

Located right on the high street, The Sports Bar and Grill Clapham Junction is your new favourite home for sports.

Location

Smack dab in the middle of Clapham Junction and close to Clapham Common, the Sports Bar & Grill is easily accessible to all major tube lines and bus lines.
The brand spanking new Northern Line station at Battersea and Nine Elms isn’t too far away, if you’re looking to sniff some of that new tube smell.

The exact address of the pub is:
4 St John’s Hill, London
SW11 1RU

Make sure you pop that postcode into CityMapper if you’re looking to head to the pub from across the city.
We highly recommend CityMapper to anyone who is visiting London to help you get around.

NFL Sundays

South London is usually pretty dead on a Sunday, which is why the NFL nights are something to stat up for.

With loads of TVs to choose from, you can watch any or all of the NFL games on that night.

Usually the pub closes at 11pm, so you can only watch the early games, but that’s great too.

There will be some nights when the Sports Bar & Grill Clapham will be open late, and we will keep you in the loop about those.

Make sure you book ahead if you have a group to avoid disappointment and to make sure that you can watch it at the TV of your choice.

Week 3 Tips

by

Another betting week is upon us, as we get ready for an exciting Sunday of NFL games.

With plenty of heavy hitting matches on tap, there are loads of opportunities to make some cash with smart bets.
To help you out (or not), we offer you some Week 3 Tips to increase your betting odds.

Wade and Ryan remarkably chose a lot of the games the same, which doesn’t happen very often.

That being said, the guys each have some value in their picks to help you make the right betting decision for you.

Make sure you join our Florida Panhandle DraftKings contest to WIN tickets to the Jaguars vs Dolphins at Tottenham stadium October 17th.
Open to UK residents only.
Here is the link
https://www.draftkings.com/contest/draftteam/114108483

Now let’s break down some of the top plays for this week according to our pundits.

Ryan

For Ryan it’s all about the Bills this week, as he has high hopes for his Buffalo team that struggled against the Steelers in Week 1.
He is also offering his last heap of praise on the Falcons for this season, disappoint him, and be shamed for ever (or until next season).

Among some of Ryan’s top picks:

Bills -7.5

Buffalo is home at Orchard Park, which means the tables will be smashing to the sound of music.
Home field music. Ryan thinks his Bills will squash the Washington running game en route to a big beating for the home crowd.

LA Chargers +6.5

Justin and the boys are rolling into Kansas City to face Patrick Mahomes and the down trodden Chiefs. After losing to the Ravens last week, Ryan thinks they will struggle against a tough LA squad.
He’s got the Chargers to cover in this one.

Falcons +3

The devil might have Daniel Jones, but the Falcons have Matt Ryan and he’s going to win. This could/ should/ would be the last chance to invest in Atlanta. Don’t let him down this week.

LA Rams +1.5

Tom Brady might have it all, just not a victory on Sunday. Ryan thinks that the Rams will stuff the Bucs, allowing Matt Stafford plenty of time to get the ball around.

Wade

Wade is coming off some tough fantasy weeks, so is a bit tender when it comes to betting this week. Baby steps baby.
He does have some nuggets of gold that he sees, after correctly picking the Panthers and Broncos to go 2-0 at this point despite the odds.

Lions +8

Lamar might be back, but much of their team is down to injury. After an emotionally inspired win over the Chiefs in week 2, Baltimore might simply be out of gas (like Britain) after that game.
Detroit finds a way to grab points in garbage time, so it seems foolish to totally count out Goff when he has so much to prove.

Saints +3

Bill Belichick always has a plan, but so does Jameis Winston. ‘Chuck it deep.’
It seems a bit insulting to favour the Patriots by 3 after the whooping that the Saints laid on the Packers in week 1. Mac Jones will struggle against this D, and Kamara looks to have a beast of a game.

Bengals +3

Pittsburgh is a bunch of broken toys after week 2, losing key parts of their D. Once TJ Watt was out last week, the team collapsed on itself. The Bengals on the other hand almost came back from the Bears, and will be motivated to knock out the pesky Pittsburgh team.

Bears +7

7 points is a lot to give to a broken Baker Mayfield who is missing some of his key receivers.
Justin Fields gets his start after being okay’ish against the Bengals last week.
Chicago might lose this game, but they won’t get blown out.

Join us at the Sports Bar and Grill Old Street on Sunday to watch all the games until the wee hours.
We will also be giving away the DraftKings tickets, so make sure you come along to watch all the games in action.

 

Week 3 Preview

by

An epic week of game awaits as we head into another tasty week of the NFL.

Wade McElwain and Ryan Cull break down all their picks and predictions in this Week 3 Preview podcast.

If you love the podcast, come meet us in person this week, as we hit the sports Bar & Grill Old Street. It’s open until 12:30am, so you can watch all the games until the tubes shut.

Best of all, we’re running a DraftKings contest this week, where the winner gets 2 tickets to the Dolphins vs Jaguars at Tottenham stadium.
This is the only contest where you can win.

https://www.draftkings.co.uk/draft/contest/114108483?bypassChallPop=true

We’ve got parties on for the London games as well as all of the London locations. Get in touch if you want to book a table.

As for the picks this week, Wade and Ryan have a crazy amount of similarities in their picks, despite not having chatted about it prior.

Among some of the games they discuss in this one:

Ravens (1-1) -8 vs Lions (0-2)  +50

Baltimore is fresh off a beating of the AFC title holders, with a duke and dunk scheme by Lamar Jackson that was enjoyable to watch. Despite having a slew of injuries, Baltimore was once again able to show why they are contenders in the division.

Detroit is bad. Just bad. Goff has been saddled with a broken team and even worse, trapped in a broken vision for the franchise. What they heck are they doing there on Michigan?
The Lions are continually faded in games because anyone can score on them.

Ryan thinks that Lamar and the boys will rip another hole through the roof of the Lions, with an easy victory to continue their AFC bravado.

Wade feels that the Ravens will tear off to an early lead, but fall victim to the resolve of the Lions who will look to TJ for late points to make this close.

Ryan- Ravens 34 Lions 23
Wade-Ravens 30 Lions 24

Washington (1-1) vs Bills (1-1) -7.5 +45.5

The Bills return home to northern New York, after disappointing home fans against the Steelers in their opener. Josh Allen has been fine, but not as great as people have hoped thus far.

Washington and their new QB haven’t been given much hope, and their D has shown a lot of nope in their first two games. It won’t be easy against a Bills D that stiffs the run with ease.

Ryan is all over his Bills, calling this one by 10000 points. He does think that the Bills should handle the new QB, as well as get the ball out deep to some Diggs action.

Wade sees the Bills once again struggling at home, but this time getting the win. Washington will use this one as a chance to get the D rocking again, and Josh Allen will struggle.

Ryan-Bills 38 Washington 20
Wade-Bills 24 Washington 18

Falcons (0-2) vs Giants (0-2) -3  +47.5

The Falcons can buy a win. Matt Ryan and the boys have been beaten by two top teams on their way to a battle against an equally struggling New York.

The Giants have all the hype, but no winning wipe. Daniel Jones is running from the devil every week, and it’s only a matter of time before that turns into an ugly scene unless he gets protection.

Ryan is believing in Atlanta one last time. He utters this phrase every season, but at varying intervals. This year we get it at week 3. He thinks that they can overcome the sad Giants to an upset.

Wade likes DJ, and is down on the home squad. Sterling Shepherd is on the fantasy list this week, as the Falcons will be forced contain a whole host of passing options.

Ryan- Falcons 27 Giants 23
Wade- Giants 24 Falcons 20

That’s it for this week, listen to the whole podcast to get all out picks and predictions.

Join the DraftKings contest and we’ll see you on Sunday!
