[ur]http://www.nfl.com/stats/team[/url]

though its pretty close with Pats being 5th and the Hawks being 6th

Pats have a better O, though Hawks and a better running game

Huge Seahawks fan here from the dark days (not that long ago) where it was lucky we got to play the Rams for our one win a season. Hopefully we'll do a double but either way a huge turn around for the franchise, I know this is the way tho whole sport is designed but it doesn't always work does it you Rams fans smile

Have Monday off so hopefully will be a good day with no cheating.

I have been in Seattle the last week, and the whole city is Seahawks mad with support. Buildings blue/green, fountains too. One building I noticed yesterday had a giant player picture over 10 or more stories made from printed pieces of paper taped to the inside of the windows. I wonder how many people/man hours it took to do that! I should have taken a photo...
What ever happens, I think that about everyone in this city is going to be drunk on Sunday night!

Well, it made the news, so here it is, using 3000 sheets of construction paper:

So no mention of HOW the Hawks D works within all this discussion?

And how it's worked for the last 3 seasons and what it is based on?

I'll watch it on the sofa, have work (from home) in the morning, though the only critical task is the supervision of the cleaner.

Anyone know where I can purchase a jersey l? It all seems to be online only. In central London, the Nike shop on Oxford circus was no good.

Checking in.
Don't like either of them, but as a Packers fan I'd rather see the title go to the NFC than the AFC.

It's a tough one to call, but my money's on the Patriots. If they both show up at their best it'll be close to being as awesome as 2011's XLV was wink

Unless you want one today, NFL Europe is as good as anywhere else.

As a Browns fan I rather like the close season ... all hope has been extinguished long ago and I can just watch the games as a neutral and enjoy them.

On that basis all I want from tonight is a close game and I'm not too bothered who wins.

I was supposed to be working from home but now need to be in the face for a 9:00 meeting ... it's a short walk in so alarm will be st for 8 and I'll just have to grin and bare it.

Anybody know if we're getting the Nissan LMP1 reveal that the yanks are expecting in the half time ad break?

I'm planning on watching this tonight like I did last year, whilst reading my Idiots Guide to American Football.

Hut, Hut, 3rd down and ten !! (I've no idea what that means laugh).
