The NFL Thread

As if anyone of us wondered what was going on at WHL the days Spurs weren't playing there..... utterly bizarre

Only football fans would think having a building empty for 345 days a year would be a good thing

People get their knickers in a twist about our stadium used for other things........

.......Personally I think its tremendous and won't ever stop being impressed with this kind of stuff

Lots of others are quite jealous that we can hold so many events, The Woolwich wanted to do it years ago and Twickenham are trying to get their limit of three non rugby events changed

Arsenal lose High Court battle over concert limit

Probably one of the benefits of being in Haringey....can't really say no to anything that boosts the local economy.

That's right , North Tottenham had one of the highest unemployment rates and deprived areas in the country was one of ther points made for getting planning permission for the stadium and the extra events.
On an NFL day and others just wonder what sort of numbers are employed, hospitality staff, bar staff , chefs, cleaners, stewards inside and outside the stadium, must be quite a number.

Is the Vikings stadium always this quiet?

It's like watching Arsenal Chelsea this.

Given the dearth of wins that Spurs are delivering, it's been epic to have a winning season for a change for the Bears.

This has been an insane season and beating the Packers over the weekend was the icing on the cake. What a win and in the circumstances of how it happened, recovering an onside kick, touch down, and then the Williams throw at the end.

So glad i didn't know the result and just watched it in the morning with my eldest.

Definitely sweet for you Bears fans

TNF was insane this week (I didn't know the score either) and (my) Hawks eventually downing the Rams in a classic. I feel we have a gem in coach Mike Mac
The NFC West is loaded this year.

Tis nice for the Bears n happy for sure (mate supports them) but spare a thought for the idiots amongst who support Spurs & the Raiders

It's been great hasn't it?

Lovely to hear all those salty tacos from that truck stop town in Wisconsin whining like the entitled fudges they are. They're the NFL equivalent of Arsenal fans.

No.1 seed in the NFC...all roads thru Seattle to the SB. Confident, but I do feel it might be a year too early.

 

[ricky2tricky4city]

I wish my Spurs had someone like Schneider and Mike Mac.

It was not hard seeing us beating up the 49ers, considering they were already beaten up. (Though thanks for beating the Eagles last week)

The Rams worry me, hopefully the Bears will prevail.

What Williams did last night with that insane hail mary to tie the game is something I have never seen before (and I've watched a lot of NFL over the decades). Absolute lunacy! I know he threw the interception in OT, but let's face it, he's a star and he's going to drive that team to greater heights over the next two to three seasons...

I was watching the rest of that game this morning.....and could not fudging believe it when he pulled that off.....the commentators said it all.

I was wondering how far back he was going to fall as he ran for his life ....then it dropped into the receivers arms in the back corner of the end zone...jaw dropping wTF moment

I have to look it up but that has to be the longest completion of it's kind?
The Rams did everything right there in terms of pressure, it was just ridiculous!
