Works fine for me without all that fuss - I just hit record and it asks you which of the two you want to record.

HOLY CRAP!

The end of the Packers / Seahawks game was a complete farce. The replacement officials have truly bought the game into disrepute.

shout Goddell, get off your arse and settle this dispute. Your nickle and diming of the professional officials is making your league a laughing stock.

I've just watched the replay yet again. I really, really can't see how they called that. What a crock! Also some of the missed calls in the Patriots / Ravens were just awful, wanting to throw my own flags at the TV.

How much are these pensions going to cost the League? Surely not as much as pishing off a lot of the fans.

That was Patriots @ Ravens; stupid sky lost signal for the entire 1st q mad (I also recorded)

also just watched the highlights of the packers game and that was a shocker of a call at the end there. Must be worrying for them though that Rodgers got sacked 8 times in the 1st half eek they're mad if they think they don't need to run the ball.

Hello All

I am a recent convert to the NFL and have a question regarding Sky / NFL Game Pass.

At the moment I am nearing the end of a deal with Sky that included the Sports channels for free - I am undecided between keeping them (at £21 a month) or buying an NFL Game Pass (£99 or £129 depending on content). Does anyone have any experience of the Game Pass as it certainly looks to be both cheaper and have more games available.

Bear in mind I watch no other sports which aren't covered well enough by the BBC, so keeping Sky would purely be for the NFL.

Thanks in advance.

James

I have both,(as I watch F1 on sky) , game pass is excellent, but your on a smaller screen plus any game shown live on sky is blacked out on gamepass which can be frustrating.

Thanks smile

I am not overly fussed about games being live so the blackout issue won't bother me. I was also thinking I could connect the laptop up to the TV to watch games on a decent sized screen sometimes.

Some shockers in most of the games. It seems the honeymoon is over and the press are now going after the stand in refs. Hopefully it doesn't get all Halsey over there as that would make things even worse probably.

Cheeseheads got utterly dicked. How any of them managed to not stab the officials in the face I've got no idea.

The press have been after them since week 1. The NFL's response is to fine coaches and players (BB has a big one coming today) but continue to nickle and dime the refs and tolerate incompetence. The past 3 weeks have shown how valuable the regular crews are. The Lingerie Football League came out yesterday and said that a number of these stand ins were fired from the LFL for incompetence, now they're officiating in the NFL!

The owners should just settle this by getting together and instructing Goddell to get it done.

The only slightly amusing thing about the packers getting utterly dicked was the couple of minutes of air time it got on the Colbert report hehe

fking hell. Just catching up and watched Titans v Lions. Amazing end to the game, and end to overtime wasn't bad either.

That last throw from the vet after Stafford went off was amazing
