NFL (since 2016)

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

[crystal falace]

This is a very good defence they're up against. But like i said they're a very average offence without Will Fuller. And he just cant stay healthy

[Grumpster]

"I flipped a coin on whether to back Allen or Brown for the first TD, so imagine my delight when I watched the cսnt I'd backed throw to the other bloke - ha ha. 10's for both which I thought were massive odds. Shouldn't have been tight and done them both really. Texans always look average to me, one of the teams where I cant believe their record is so good."

[Takashi Miike]

"I feel sorry for watson then, as they don't have anyone good enough to get the best out of him"

[crystal falace]

"Dont think Bill O'Brien is going anywhere, they've givn him basically full control since they got rid of the GM"

[Takashi Miike]

referees need hanging if they allow that

[Takashi Miike]

"crystal, I just don't think kelly is good enough to call plays for watson. they need mcdaniels as HC/OC"

[zebthecat]

If the Bills offence continues to eat up the clock the Texans are fucked as the Bills defence will still be fresh and will continue to munch Deshaun Watson.

*run game*

[Takashi Miike]

"I agree crystal, they don't have room to develop any fun game. id drop him to the shotgun and try and hit coutee & fells down the centre, hoping that will free up hopkins"

[crystal falace]

"Couldnt believe the texans were 4 point favourites seem like everyone was picking the bills. I was going to bet them minus a few points but thought id play it ""safe"" Mike, every time they try and pass the Oline is just etring worked over, they're getting destroyed in the trenches"

[Hermit Road]

I never cease to be stunned by how bad I am at betting on NFL games

[Takashi Miike]

"I know this bills D is very good but the texans co-coordinator is going have to go to the air, they're not running on this line"

[crystal falace]

"Dont think thats on the QB, receiver should be able to get his feet down in bounds there"

[crystal falace]

"Think he's down before the ball comes out there, should overturn this"

[Takashi Miike]

....and then he does that :.)

[Takashi Miike]

"Allen's got such a great arm, he was the stand out in last year's combine"

[crystal falace]

"Texans just are nkt the same team without will fuller who's inactive, they're a very average offence without him and the bills are a very good defence."

[Hermit Road]

I've got the Texans at -6.5 Just put more on them to win after BuFfalo scored. Dont think the Bill's will score much more.

[crystal falace]

"See i think the saints game will likely be the worst as im expecting the saints to completely blow then out 14-20 point win I've bet the bills and seahawks to win outright, saints -4.5 and pats titans under 48.5 points Couldnt bring myself to bet against the pats but i think they're going to struggle if they dont force turnovers"

[zebthecat]

Quite some start from the Bills. Blimey

[Takashi Miike]

"he just got rid of a terrible president (who was still the GM), who'd alienated players (trent williams just one who hated the cսnt), numerous coaches, made a hired GM's (scott mcloughhan's) working life impossible by putting out stories about his drink problem, hired fitness trainers that oversaw record numbers of injuries that would even shame west ham's worst medical teams and a continual decline in fan attendance by the home supporters, where most weekends, fed ex field resembled an away fixture. no, snyder has just hired two very good proven coaches, he's going to take his time with the new GM decision and other hires. its taken him twenty years to finally start making good decisions but at least the penny seems to have finally dropped, so id look elsewhere for worst run franchises"

[southbankbornnbred]

"Some good match-ups in the Wild Card games this weekend. Vikes-Saints probably the pick of the ties, but all four games look decent. Texans, Patsies, Saints, Seahawks probably favourites in each tie, but it rarely works out that way across all four games. As for Black Monday, all coaching hires seem to be on hold pending the outcome of Jerry Jones' latest brainfart over Jason Garrett. If Garrett gets the bullet, as expected, then Mike McCarthy will have three potential suitors (Browns, Giants and the Cowgirls) and his $$$ value will soar. He'll also get to pick and choose the system and coaching set-up he walks into. McCarthy should, of course, be the Jets' head coach already. But our co-owners had a mental breakdown and hired Adam Gase last season instead. Looks like Marv Lewis could also be back in a head coaching position soon, too. Fuck knows what's going on in Washington - TM will know more. But they seem to be competing with the Jets for worst-run franchise. Latest development there is that the owner seems to have sacked the president. He'd already sacked the head coach. He's now running out of people to sack, so expect him to send himself a P45, just for fun, soon."

"del rio, the skins new DC. snyder on fire"

[Takashi Miike]

"I think o'connell's staying at OC, he did well in his first season calling plays. the other side of the ball is most important and I think he'll be bringing his own men with him. trent made it clear a couple of months ago that he had a big problem with allen, so could be back"

[crystal falace]

"Rivera should improve the defence instantly, although i think he got binned because Carolina's defence was so terrible this year. The OC hire will be crucial for Haskins as with Guice (if he can stay healthy) and terry mclaughlin they have some good building block pieces. Maybe even get Trent Williams back at left tackle now which would be huge"
