Escobarp Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Been avoiding it Frank but tough luck for the Bulldogs. To my eye Fromm's inexperience was the difference when it came to the crunch plays. Bloody close though and maybe a big chance next year? Normally i agree with you Bolty but the boy who turned the game on its head had much less experience that fromm I would say that it was a freak performance from the kid and without it the game is over. But that’s what makes it so interesting to watch you just never know. Look at the chiefs on Saturday night. Nobody could have predicted that turnaround much the same as last night Quote

Hope so, the running backs can only do so much so a year of experience will do Fromm the world of good and give the #1 high school QB they recruited this year a chance to red shirt and learn the ropes. The running backs waiting in the wings look to be just as good as Chubb and Michel including Evander Holyfield's son Quote

The ability to grind down the game is what makes Brady so spectacular, he might jot do the big plays as well as Rodgers and Roethlisberger but he is scarily accurate with his 10yd passes to keep the chains moving.

frank_spencer Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Having Gronk helps, though.True plus he's probably the only Patriot alongside James Harrison I actually like. Quote

QB doesn’t call the plays the coaches do. Blame them not fromm Brady doesn’t need to the spectacular cos the team as a whole are good enough and the coaching does its job. No need to throw 40 yard passes down the field when short gains or running the ball will do Credit to the boy from Bama though some performance and the Georgia defence went missing. Quote

Not blaming Fromm, he's a freshman QB who helped the team win the SEC and get to the national championship game. Sadly Bama were Bama and took the title yet again. Quote
Escobarp Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Yep they are relentless. Georgia’s year next year I believe Quote

I was really hoping that the Bulldogs would win and that may have coloured my judgement. I just thought that Fromm made some very bad decisions at key moments. Quote
frank_spencer Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Also agree on the bad calls from the coaches. You have the lead and 2 of the best running backs in college football. There shouldn't be any need for your freshman QB to be in a position to make mistakes Quote
L/H White Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 just announced the raiders will play the seahawks at spurs new ground in october anyone know how easy it is to get tickets for these london games? open sale or need to be member of some club? Quote
Escobarp Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Easy enough pal just buy on ticketmaster when released They try and get folk to buy season tickets for all the games where possible. You should get a ticket. I will be going to this game also if I can get a ticket as quite like the seahawks Quote

Escobarp Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Nope. I support the patriots. I like the seahawks. And yes by suppprt I go to watch them. Seahawks not so. Would love to go to a game there though. But will watch them in October as highlighted. Thanks Edited January 11, 2018 by Escobarp Quote
frank_spencer Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Tickets are usually pretty easy to get. Usually can get them for a good while once they go on sale then in the summer there's a few more go on sale when the Yanks don't buy their full allocation Quote
MancWanderer Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Just caught up with the latest round of games having been away. Still can’t see past Brady and the cheats for the SB but i do like the look of the Saints. Next round of games absolutey fascinating. Steelers do well and I can see them maybe sneaking it Quote
L/H White Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 Tottenham have a 10-year agreement with the NFL to host at least two matches per year in their new 61,559-seater stadium, which is set to be completed in time for the 2018-19 season, but they are only to host one NFL game in the first year of that deal. Three games will be played at the venue in a future year to make up for it. Quote

Three games will be played at the venue in a future year to make up for it. Great stuff. Nauseating to see that weasel Khan appearing to take some of the credit but apart from that, anything that raises the profile of a great game in the UK is a good thing by me. Be nice for Khan to be invited to kick off the first match and the charging blockers conveniently forget the 'roughing the kicker' rule and overlooking the fact that he wasn't padded up. Quote
MancWanderer Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Early doors this Eagles/Falcons game looks like it could be a cracker Quote
Traf Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Early doors this Eagles/Falcons game looks like it could be a cracker Eagles looking ropey Quote
MancWanderer Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Aye. Falcons ahead at half=time due to Eagles fuckups Can't even blame it on a second string quarterback either Quote
maaarsh Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Foles has looked fine apart after a shaky start; just a couple of braindead plays making it 2-0 on turnovers - take those away and the Eagles would have had a lead of some form. Quote
maaarsh Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 In to the lead, immediately another crap ST play. Have been the better team for 3 quarters but look very capable of throwing it away here. Quote
MancWanderer Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 Wouldn't have said they have been the better team at all - think it's been pretty even Agree though they do look capable of losing it but shouldn't do really Very good open offensive game Quote

The Eagles have moved the ball more easily in general, but found a couple of ways to throw that away. Anyhow, 1 more stop needed. Quote
