I need to get involved with NFL again, but need to choose a team. Was always a Dan Marino Miami Dolphins shirt wearing kid, but need some advice.

 

Which team is it worth following? Thinking about going down to Wembley to watch a game - anyone done it? Any help welcomed. Could just stick with the Dolphins and get tickets off Stub Hub for their game against New York Jets the day after the QPR game.

 

Which are the Liverpool/Man Utd of the NFL world to avoid?

I watched part of a game on Sunday and I noticed it. It speeds things up and makes it a tad less boring.

Fair enough mate. Glad you are enjoying it more. Never found it boring but do find that the college game can be far more entertaining at times. Watched the Gators at the Longhorns at the weekend. Crowd and atmosphere superb.

Big one tomorrow on sky at 9.25pm

Chiefs at Bills 

Looking forward to it 

Going to wear my Bills top and everything

Expecting a bills win

Beat the chiefs last 3 years a row in the regular season at their place

It's the playoffs when they come unstuck

If following the steelers has taught me anything its that the stillers have a nack of beating the good sides but losing to shit teams so this season we lost to Joe Flacco led colts and the fucking cowboys. So I'm confident in a win and TJ Watt and Pat Queen smacking Lamar around as a bonus

Ive not been into it that long tbf, but if following the Ravens has taught me anything it's that no matter how good we are, we'll probably get turned over by the Steelers. Think we are due a result but our defence ain't great. 

Losing the defensive coordinator has been a blow on top of losing Queen. 

Our offense is just fucking rinsing it though. Should be interesting.

Great TD run from Josh Allen, amazing player......

Best side won tonight....

Lets see what happens in the play-offs though.....

Aye, felt it could've gone either way at the end but JA stepped up and then some 

Best chance in the play offs would be to finish about Chiefs and get them to Orchard Park 

Hoping for a Bills Lions superbowl 

 

Beat the Ravens, the browns lost (standard) and it appears there's a melt down at the Bungles

Ha ha.

It's really odd, it's like it's old father time catching up with him but he's no age for a kicker.

Beat the Ravens then lose to the fucking Browns! Some things never change.

The end of the Cowboys vs Football Team has been bloody mental

Bumped into an Afro American bloke called Cornelius out in the backwaters yesterday. Blown away when I said 'Ah, the Razorbacks'. He was tickled pink as no fucker over here has any idea who they are.

You will not be surprised to hear that he had never heard of BWFC but has now! Our newest fan. Gobsmacked that we were one of the original 12 and fascinated by our history.

Anyway, back on subject, good win for the Pack against the Dolphins.

Oh, and just to clarify for the sneering "I have a black friend" tosspots, he was a really cracking bloke who I will catch up with again. Turns out he's a teaching assistant at my eldest grandsons school.

Him and McConkey (now of the chargers) were outstanding for UGA during their time there.

Sterling performance from Allen 

2 hat tricks of passing and rushing TDs

Got me 51.88 fantasy points

Shame they fucking lost though 

Whilst the chiefs keep on scraping wins 

Hope someone else beats them in the play offs first

If you went for a piss during the first half of the Bears v 49ers, you did more yards than the Bears...

How the fuck the Steelers have an equal record to the Bills is baffling.

10-3 and haven't looked convincing at any point this season.

Scorigami in the Dolphins Jets game this weekend, first ever 32-26 scoreline.
