Anybody watched Quarterback on Netflix, which follows Mahomes, Cousins and Mariota. I really enjoyed it and you don’t have to be an American football fan to follow it.
I've heard it's good, I should watch it. Mahomes is a phenomenon.Quote:

Until the Chiefs are out of it I won't be picking against Mahomes, their offence seems to have switched on at the most opportune time.Quote:

Don't worry, they can always send the video of that to You've Been Framed and get £250 if they want.Quote:

Getting lucky tonight, Ravens throwing it away! Although it'll be nice if the 9ers can get revenge in the Suber Owl.
The Ravens got lucky that Kansas declared when they got to 17 as Andy Reid turned into Jose Mourinho for the second half. The bus parking and running down the clock made the final score look respectable, which was more than Baltimore deserved. Their lack of discipline was ridiculous and Lamar Jackson was poor, the pass that got intercepted in the endzone made Buffalo's punt fake last week look like genius. He should do a Paula Vennells and hand his MVP award back if he wins it.Quote:

The KC corners & safeties had a superb 2nd half, Jackson had nowhere to go. Pacheco has been a major bonus and gives them great optionsQuote:

I felt Josh Allen did that last week without much support, even though it ended in defeat, and he's done it before against the Chiefs. Burrow too, but Jackson was found wanting. We'll see how Purdy does.
Jackson never looked comfortable all game, and Kelsey was ridiculous….showing off in front of his g/f !
Was wonderful to see Lamar falling apart. That throw to himself summed it up. Far more confident (that doesn't mean I am confident) on beating Manholes, Kelsey and Swift in the big one! #FTTB
Just worry about Mahomes and Kelce, I don't think Swift will be getting a run out to be honest. I know Andy Reid loves his trick plays but surely the insurance premiums would rule it out. Maybe she'd be good to kick an extra point, we'll see.Quote:

My first NFL game yesterday as me and my eldest were at Wembley to see Jacksonville Jaguars play the New England Patriots. I'm not a bucket list kind of person but my boys had set it up as a birthday present and, while I hadn't wanted them to go to the trouble and expense of arranging it, I'm glad they did.
Apart from anything else, it was a really good game. Considering they were both 1-5 going into it, the quality was excellent I thought. The Jaguars were an absolute shit show (stop me if I'm getting too technical) against Chicago last week and it looked like the same again as Drake Maye was picking them apart early on and they were giving away silly penalties to go 10-0 down.
Then, out of nowhere, the Jaguars played an almost perfect second quarter. Trevor Lawrence was brilliant, the catches stuck and the running game got going. And, just as I was wondering what it would be like to see a kick returned for a touchdown, Parker Washington did exactly that and ran a kick-off return back 96 yards. Theatrical finish too, great bit of sport.
Maye kept going but the Patriots never quite got back in touch and lost 32-16 in the end. Good game, glad I was there to see it. I guess all it lacked was a dramatic finish but Reindorf gave me that tonight so I can't be greedy. One more thing, Tank Bigsby is a great name.
