Good job they signed Fitzpatrick from the Texans then

Just read that. Sucker punched in the locker room by his own teammate over money. And that teammate had just signed with the Jets..I bet Jets fans are loving things at the moment.

Anyone else watching the Saints-Ravens preseason game?

It really is like the first day back at school. Some very sloppy D going on, plus very silly fouls.

Quite enjoying it really.

Watched the first Episode of Hard Knocks with the Texans. Always a fascinating insight to training camps, and JJ Wyatt seems to be a top guy.

Just starting to watch it. Good these shows, humanising the cartoon characters in the shoulder pads.

OIoh, I'd like to watch this. Is this on normal TV in the UK? By normal, I mean not Sky etc.

Quick question for you lovers of NFL. I really want to go to a game a wembley. the only date I can do is the Sunday 4th Jets V Dolphins but I can only find tickets for £110+ does that sound right ?

Sadly yes as they have been on sale since January IIRC. a 'Season Ticket' was about £260 iirc (with some discount applied for being a previous ticket holder) so £110 for one game at this stage doesn't sound beyond the relms of possiblity.

[Defconluke]

Closer to the game you will get unsold tickets that were allocated to each team returned to the pot.

I bought my tickets for Cowobys vs. Jaguars on 4th September last year and they had a limited amount available for each of the 3 games that had been returned.

Brady being suspended for four games isn't the start to the season the Pats would have wanted!

Breaking; Not going to happen.

With Jordy Nelson crippled for the year I can easily see another Pats / Seahawks superbowl.

Brady's suspension will either be overturned completely on appeal or reduced to 1 or 2 games.

Hate to say I told you so....

[stephen300o]

Preseason in the books, next the season proper!

Cheers to your teams staying healthy and putting on a good show

Right, Upaddated predictions following the preseason. Anyone else want to have a go?

Superbowl Winner: Seahawks (SEA beat Eagles in NFC title game). Eagles look really good and I'm worried about GB after Nelson's injury.

AFC Champs: Colts (to beat Pats) in AFC Championship game. Yes, Brady is back but the Patriots aren't the same team as last year, particularly on D.

Division Winners:

NFC N: Packers (close one with Lions just behind)
NFC W: Seahawks
NFC E: Eagles
NFC S: Saints (changed from Panthers after Benjamin injury. Falcons a possibility but habve't done much.

AFC N: Ravens - changed from Steelers due to injuries
AFC W: Broncos
AFC E: Patriots
AFC S: Colts

Wild Cards:

NFC 1: Cardinals
NFC 2: Lions

AFC 1: Dolphins
AFC 2: Chiefs

First pick in 2016 = Redskins. Changed from Raiders. Amari Cooper looks brilliant but the Redskins are going nowhere, especially if they let RGIII stay and use up millions of cap room.

[couzens]

Well Saints have had a pre-season to forget! Just hope we fair slightly better in regular season!

I'll have a crack, I've got a few controversial choices I know but, I like change.

NFC N: Packers
NFC W: Seahawks
NFC E: Eagles
NFC S: Falcons

AFC N: Bengals
AFC W: Broncos
AFC E: Chargers
AFC S: Colts

Wild Cards:

NFC 1: Vikings
NFC 2: Cardinals

AFC 1: Patriots
AFC 2: Broncos

First draft pick: 49ers
