I have signed up to NFL Gamepass for this season, bit of a gamble but I am enjoying watching last season's games.

Currently trying to single out a team to support. A good mate of mine supports the Eagles and tbh I am leaning their way. I like their style of play.

Also after a few games I have really begun to understand and appreciate the sport. I have watched the Superbowl for years but always fucked by the end of the half time show.

You mean "Washington Football Team" fan.

I can get the use. I have movies, TV or YouTube running all day while I am working anyway.

Yeah the 40 minute cuts are a great idea, like highlights+. The prem etc could do this as well for fans that want more than MotD.

Not much to me mate, no need for apologies
Although they do need to come up with something.

I watch the BBC shows too, and will catch stuff on YouTube but not signed up for gamepass. I've been to two London games as well.

I like the Vikings, Seahawks and still hold out hope for the Jets to make a comeback one day.

AFC preview if you cant be bothered reading through it. Mike Carson providing the analysis. I think an NFC analysis is coming after this one.

A quick preview of the teams across AFC and NFC.

Blame livdiv

I've been there so I'm sort of into Baltimore now.

I dont think it is. They published a schedule yesterday or the day before and it just seemed to be the Saturday shows.

I will definitely be tuning in or iPlayering them.

I have definitely decided on The Eagles now as my team. I watched 4 or 5 of their games from last season and liked what I was seeing.
They had an injury crisis all season which was a shame but the seemed to play an aggressive exciting game which Im up for.

I am enjoying Game Pass as well. There are some decent shows on there. It is very American of course, there was an advert for colon cancer treatment mid game at one point.
I appreciate how positive it tends to be though. The general mainstream coverage of football has really started to put me off the sport recently, far too negative all the time.

Cheers

The breakfast show I was watching on Game Pass seemed to be pretty unanimous in predicting a win for Eagles but I have read injuries may throw a spanner in the works.

Will see.

I hope Washington come up with a new/better name and brand. Glad they dropped the Redskins name finally mind.

I doubt I will watch the late, late ones live until maybe play offs.
I'm hoping to grab a Sunday evening game live each week though.

I'm still proper new to all this mind. Watching 6 or 7 games through and a few shows has got me up to speed on the basics and some strategies.

Getting to know players is tough because of the helmets.

I have no idea of players. Haven’t watched properly in years apart the odd Super Bowl.

Lemarr Jackson (Ravens) and Patrick Maholmes (Chiefs) are incredible QBs who break the mould in different ways. Jackson runs like Running Back, thrilling to watch
Maholmes does passes like you've never seen in the NFL (no look passes, passes with weaker arm etc).

Cam Newton at New England should be interesting. Gives Billicheck a different weapon at QB. A QB who can run the ball himself provided he can stay fit.

Of course EVERYONE will be watching tampa bay. Brady and Gronk at Tampa Bay (owed by the glazers btw). They are now among favs for the SuperBowl so i expect it to implode spectacularly.

Joe Burrows was drafted by Bengals and he is seen as franchise level QB. So no pressure then on his debut season to carry an entire historically bad team on his back.

Theres probably loads more stuff, but thats why i watch the BBC show cause they fill in all the details.

That just the highlights show Dino?

Will they be showing any full games? (Apart from SB)

Yeah there’s not a lot of coverage anymore in the UK. Sky have some but not as much as I’d have thought. Tempted to get GP again, but will I get my money’s worth. Those digest 45 min games are great, assuming they are still on the platform.
