Doin it for Prince!

The Bears are still dogger, probably the worst in the NFL.
Yeah they usually are but the only thing Denver lost was Manning, and they won the Superbowl in spite of him. That defense is a monster and though they lost a piece or two I didn't expect Atlanta to carve them up that much. Yeah they beat the Panthers as well, but they look AWFUL. A mess on the defensive side of the ball and not dealing with the extra physicality teams are taking to their offense (maybe too much, given teams seem to be targeting Cam quite a bit).

Vikings look amazing, and the scary thing is Bradford now airing the ball. He's a former top pick and if he gets going then it's going to be tough to stop. All without AP as well!

Bears are indeed rubbish. Hoyer doesn't seem to be targeting Jeffrey at all with Cutler out. Bad times.

What's the deal with Adrian Peterson these days? I know he was suspended with very good reason but is he going to return to the game at any point?

Edit: Seems he returned last season! Nevermind!

Yeah he's back, but on IR for the season. McKinnon looks able though, which is all they really need.

[quote="Montreal Wanderer"

Atlanta beat my Raiders on a fluke deflection to start the season but I'm not sure beating Oakland makes one a threat. Still no one else has done it this season. :wink:[/quote]

How Oakland are 4-1 is incredible. Some crazy play calls by Blackjack Del Rio somehow coming off, and also having a fantastic, young QB and WR triumvirate makes them a very exciting side to watch. Carr, Cooper and Crabtree are going to be terrific to watch in the coming years.

Also helps when your opponents sh*t the bed at crucial points.

The same Chargers who now beat Denver last night. NFL is weird.

Da Bears need a new QB and (and pretty much a new roster) and fast! 1-6 after a not-so-surprising defeat at the cheesedicks.

That was streamed live on Twitter! NFL game from Twickenham today on BBC. There seems to be a lot of free-to-air NFL in the UK these days.

Close but no cigar. Falcons had it 59+ minutes. Never count Brady out in the big game.

I went to bed after Atlanta made it 3-28 with the first score of the second half. Bit of a rude story to wake up to. Effectively won on a coin toss in over time, but it seems, too all intent and purpose, that either Atlanta stopped playing for the second half or the Patriots defense started waking up and making some stops.
To score twice after a fumble and then a pick6 and not win the game is criminal. Did Matty Ice melt?

Five live must have banged on about this fecking nonsense around a half a dozen times on my drive in this morning, like anyone cares.

Do they bang on about the result of the FA cup final on American radio?
