I watched the Jags v Steelers, which was incredible, what a game. I woke up this morning buzzing after watching that game and now looking forward to the Saints v Vikings. I turned the tv on, clicked on the GamePass app and then selected games, it opened and there right right below the games was next weeks games, so I now knew the Vikings won. ?????? Game Pass really thinks of everything. In this case, you knew the outcome but I love how they don't reveal the score when you are looking at games retrospectively Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did, they wouldn’t put the fixtures for next week up until later in the week and certainly not right next to the weeks fixtures that folk stilll haven’t seen. I only knew the outcome because they bloody showed me, doesn’t matter they haven’t put the score, they’ve spoilt it just by telling you who has one...arseholes. Yet another thing they haven’t thought of, which I’ve contacted them about. You can download games to your mobile device, but not the NFL Networks programmes. I contacted them asking why I can’t download GMFB and they told me I can’t, but with no explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, hiding the score, but making it hard to avoid seeing who won the game is totally ****ing useless. Who wants to sit through an NFL game when you already know who won it?!?! Gamepass has been horrendous this year since the new provider came in. Unfortunately, they have me as a captive audience! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Falcons-Eagles game was a bit underwhelming and nobody wants to watch the Pats win, but the games yesterday were tremendous. I do feel a bit sorry for Marcus Williams though - he’s had a good season and that’ll all be forgotten about. It also overshadows some poor decisions from Payton. And my bet on the Jags for the big one is still alive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KineticBeat Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I think it'll be a Vikings / Pats Superbowl but the NFC Championship game is going to be very very tight. I would prefer the Jags to be there though. I'd laugh so much if they properly bodied Brady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linc is thick grass and slightly torn up. The crowd will be a massive factor as well, get in Keenums face he is capable of throwing a pick or two. Yes im trying to convince myself we will win.

The under-rating of the Eagles right now is two long-running trends -- people overestimating the importance of the QB position (it's the most important, but again, bad QBs have won multiple Super Bowls), and people overestimating late-season games after the div title is wrapped up. The Eagles have a great defense and a killer O-line. They have a tremendous coach who knows exactly what Foles can and can't do (who himself was a journeyman quarterback who had to learn to play within his own limited abilities). They have home field advantage. The Vikings are a dome team through and through. The Vikings are a very good team and could still win it, but I see this one turning into an ugly grind-it-out affair that I don't think the Vikes can hold up to. I think the Panthers probably were the team best built to beat Philadelphia, but were too weak in other ways to get there. At to the ####s, I'd like to believe the Jags could actually beat them, and a top-notch pass defense is a great thing to have going against them. Hoping for the worst for the Brady Bunch.

We dont need Foles to be a world beater, we just need him to be sound and the defense will win the game for us. I really hope theres an upset in Foxboro, cannot stand the Patriots.

Smith, Rhodes and even Sandejo have been lights out this year along with 75 year old Newman being solid and Waynes finally showing why he was a 1st rounder. I agree with what you said above -QB is not as important in this game as both Foles and Keenum have demonstrated frailties but have still kept their teams winning. I honestly think the buzz and emotion from Sunday will give the Vikings the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you not see the buzz from the linc on Saturday after that fourth down stop, exactly the same could be said for the Eagles. Home field advantage will prove massive. We go in to the game as underdogs again and I'm glad it is that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watt-Zeefuik Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 If I say this on the Naismith thread I'll get all the "soccerball" jokes so I'll just say here -- the Naismith signing reminds me of when the Panthers signed Keyshawn Johnson. He was a player I just loathed on other teams. Then he gets on your team and you watch how he winds up the other fans, and you just love him for it.
