The crappy play calls from the Titans HC. Some of the calls are close, agreed. But think it's clouding over some poor plays by Titans.

Okay, I'm a wee bit biased, but even excluding tonight, they seem to always get the benefit. Third and 31! Feck me, they are Tam kite.

Titans have had more than a few chances to bring themselves back into the game and they've blown it....still it's all the refs rigged in Pats favour :-) Anyway...I'm sure the NFL will ensure it's a Pats V Steelers division final next week!

Deodato Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 There is something about American Football that no other sport can touch, and I think we all saw it last night.

Peebo Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Fantastic ending. Almost predictably incredible, if that makes sense! Games like that add weight to my suspicions that the NFL is one big fix. However, it is is superb entertainment. While I no longer watch “soccer”, other than Hearts games and international tournaments, I’ll quite happily watch NFL games all weekend long, even when my team isn’t involved in, or has a direct stake in, the games.

RedStarRiot Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Absolutely gutted. Saints had no right to be in that game after the awful start but to lose like that is special even when your used to it with Hearts. Williams will take the heat for it but he's had a great rookie season and if it were not for his interception there wouldn't have been a game to lose. That first half was too much really and missing so many players on defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the exact same. I'd never think about watching 3 or 4 football (our football) back to back on a Sunday but will quite happily sit and watch the 6pm/9pm/1am games on a Sunday, regardless of the fixture.

Gamepass has been ****ing dreadful this year. Earlier in season, they removed scores for similar reason (ie folk watching later) but still highlighted the winning team on the menu!

I’ve been firing emails off to them all season, because of the video being temporarily unavaible and please try again later message that keeps appearing when your trying to watch a game. It happens on all my devices and on different internet providers, so the problem is at their end. They said they’d fixed it, but it still appears. They also take forever to answer the emails too.

Jamboelite Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I went to my bed before the end of the Vikings game but just watched the last play........w t f !!! Why commit to the tackle? if he just stands still the guy catches it and lands pretty much on top of him, absolutely scenes afterwards though. As long as the Patriots dont win I dont care who goes on to do it but its been a brilliant set of games this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyBatistuta Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Just watched the game anyway, must have been amazing for you guys watching it live.

Craig Gordons Gloves Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 That was phenomenal. Just prior to it my 7 year old had turned round and said "we're going to lose, aren't we dad?" and then it went a little something like this "Yeah, we are, that's wha...YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSS............." as pandemonium ensued in the living room. My boys saw their first live game at US Bank this year when the Vikes clinched the division against the Bengals and then that last night saw that on TV. I fear i've set them up for a lifetime of disappointment now. But that's what sports is for. The atmosphere in my work is a very happy one today, despite quite a few people missing in action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As coach Belichick likes to say "play situational football" Knowing what needs to be done in every situation. That was one of the dumbest plays ever made in football. That rookie never slept good last night that's for sure. The faces on his team mates standing on the sidelines were worth a thousand words.
