Now that was a quick first half!!

What are the odds that Dan Connoly catches a TD in this second half Mike Vrabel style?

If anyone finds the Patriots Defense will you send them to Gillete Stadium TIA

Wow that was a strange end to that game, Green Bay didn`t deserve to lose that, they were superb on offence especially Matt Flynn, he did what he needed to and kept our offence off of the field, I guess our D stepped up when they needed to at the end which is a good thing for us, I thought the call on Tully Banta-Cain that took away the Merriweather INT was a bit dodgy seeing as Bulaga(?) had his hands in his face too but that happens in every game.

Green Bay have a good backup there by the looks of it

Who honestly give's a crap if it's a double negative? it's an NFL thread not an english lesson. At least I admit it when he chokes and don't blame everybody else. It's a shame as he had a great game apart from the final drive. Oh well, that's the Eagles winning the division.

I was just checking Mark!

Fortunately Rodgers hasn't choked this year. However Eli! How do you blow a 21 point lead!

Both hilarious and beneficial to the Packers.

I agree with it being hilarious for other fans. By the look's of things you'd be more dangerous in the playoffs anyway. Gilbride and his conservative playcalling need to go. If we beat you we'd be in. I doubt that though as confidence wll be at an all time low.

Somehow managed to win my fantasy game. Would have won comfortably if I'd started Donald Brown but through to the next round either way

NFL Redzone - sorry but it wasn't that thrilling for me as I'd rather watch a full game than be bounced around the other games.

I flicked to it occasionally which wrecked my game as gamepass is about a minute behind. Didn't seem that great.

It was terrible. You couldn't follow what was happening in any game. Like has been mentioned, it's like a highlight reel for a few hours. I get what Sky are doing to entertain the masses and get new viewers, but I can't help but think they're underestimating their audience.

For example, Cecil Martin was shocked a few weeks ago that he had an e mail discussing who will get the first round byes in the AFC and he was shocked that a British fan knew what this was. This seems to be the attitude of Sky, broadcast like we've never seen the game before. I think that's how Hailings still in a job to be honest.
