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."

[Grumpster]

"Not the most exciting set of games tomorrow, but I do love a Thanksgiving day triple header. Lack of work being done on Friday, though nothing changes."

*past players*

[Takashi Miike]

"crystal, I just love seeing belichik relaxed and sharing his knowledge of last players. it's also the first time I've seen those three backs having a conservation like that, just a shame walter wasn't around to join them"

[zebthecat]

Did Steve Tasker make it? Special Teams are underappreciated.

[crystal falace]

"Just thought they were gping to actually pick a team, not 10 players at each position. Dont think there would be many patriots llayers on any team other than the QB and coach, maybe Gronk"

[Takashi Miike]

"dumb how? they've made it that many so they can include more stars. they could always have named a team of patriots players and bored the shit out of everyone, watch the video and you'll see belichik isn't belittling it. i'd love to have been around to watch marion motley play. payton will always be my favourite RB"

[crystal falace]

"Seems to be a real emphasis on making sure they give the really old players a ""fair"" level of respect. No Marshall faulk, Ladanian Tomlinson or adrian peterson in the top 10 running backs seems daft"

[Far Cough]

"I see OJ made the list, fair enough by all accounts he was bloody good"

[crystal falace]

"Seem to be pussyfooting around it though, i saw they named 10 running backs to the team and are naming 10 head coaches, unless they're narrowing it down afterwards then it just seems dumb"

[Takashi Miike]

*NFL 100 All Time Team*

[Far Cough]

"Barry Sanders is the best RB I have seen, never saw Jim Brown"

[Takashi Miike]

"this is brilliant, NFL All Time Team : Running Backs. Rich Eisen with Chris Collinsworth in a studio with Jim Brown, Belichik, Barry Sanders & Emmit Smith https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jrVEsfqiVyw"

"Crystal, Exactly. I don't mean to sound like a killjoy, but you just know that the likes of Belichick, Tomlin and Reid - grizzled coaches - are watching game footage of the Ravens and planning how to take Jackson down a blind alley in which he gets full-on nailed by some hard-ass linebacker. I love watching scrambling QBs. But consistently successful ones have been few and far between in the NFL - often because they get nailed and injuries follow (Griffin III etc) or they get worked out (Kaepernick etc). Vick was probably an exception. So Ravens fans will be hoping he follows that line, possibly without the dog-fighting. Jackson has been a revelation, though, it must be said. I'm enjoying every game he plays at the moment."

Bit of good fortune for the Ravens too - they've had their first choice O line all season. Might struggle if some of them get injured

[crystal falace]

Think this will be the Raven's best chance at a superbowl for the future as eventually defensive coordinators will figure out how to slow them down the more tape they get on them. While it's still new they may be able to take the league by storm and win a title but not sure how viable it is in the long run.

[RBshorty]

Only the Seahawks and Saints look even close in the NFC. And you never count out the Emperor and Darth Brady of New England. But it does look like a changing of the guard.

[southbankbornnbred]

"I believe that's what they call a proper beating handed out to the Rams. Jackson was on fire again. He is in amazing form. The only concern for the Ravens must be that they may have peaked too soon - which is a nice ""problem"" to have."

[RBshorty]

"Ravens V 49ers next weekend should be very, very tasty. Possibly a Superbowl rehearsal.?"

[crystal falace]

"Bit of a bizarre stat line only 169 passing yards but 5 passing touchdowns, like they just run it down into the redzone and then let him chuck a TD pass, not that im complaining as he put up another 36 points for me in Fantasy"

[Grumpster]

"And not to annoy my pal Burnsy, but you have to throw in that the Rams were pretty pathetic on both sides of the ball which made the Ravens look better. They doubled up on Donald which made him ineffective and then hardly used Gurley. Problem then is relying on Goff's arm and he isnt a good QB. Fella must be laughing every day at his 110 mil guaranteed wages. Proper test for the Ravens next up."

[ironsofcanada]

"Ravens worrying, going by those highlights. Mark Ingram can be annoying, when not on your team."

[Takashi Miike]

"very impressive scoreline, the lad is playing at a very high level. I just hope he avoids an injury as it would be nice to see a different team win the superbowl"

[Grumpster]

"This cսnt Lamar is having an unreal game. I doubted him and thought he'd be found out by now, but he's clearly mustard and impossible to stop in this mood."

[Grumpster]

"Rams currently being given a lesson, though early days. Goff is a bit shit though, so dangerous getting too far behind."

[crystal falace]

I dont mind the Niners as they have Jimmy G and i am a big fan of Kittle on and off the field. Could do with them doing the pats a favour next week and beating the Ravens to give the Pats a little wiggle room for the number 1 seed
