    A good result but still questionable performance in beating the Packers. Defence finally healthy. But yet again big offensive yards but very little redzone possession and only 1 for 3 when we got there. (Packers 2 for 2). For all the numbers it was still a single score game.

    BTW terrific effort from the women's side last night - even more so considering 2 of their best players have missed whole tournament

    Gotta love it. What building a squad rather than a team is all about. YJB back in and scores a century. Think he was extra motivated to prove a point? :) Reckon others are now thinking they've got to perform to keep their place rather than think "it's my place until I get injured or something"...

    McCoy is a bigger risk taker than Smith. But some poor calls - pass interference on the one interception and a truly dreadful miss on that helmet hit on Reid.

    My bad memory. Dug the programme out. Remember it now because Mabbutt got the Spurs goal. Lovely irony.

    David Speedie cleaning out Peter Reid in Charity Shield. Player who everyone used to hate and people didn't want joining us. Charged around like maniac getting stuck in. Scored on his league debut at Wednesday ??. Loved Speedie - aggressive but not short on ability/skill.

    At university with a group of guys from university of minnesota. Year twins won World series (can't stand baseball). So started following us sports but only liked football. We would go to Lakenheath to watch live screenings. visited them regularly and went to vikings games - still in regular...

    "Looking ahead to the ashes I’d be stunned if Jennings was to Ave over 20 with the bat with his technique v pace!" If it gets to the stage where he has an average in the Ashes then the system is broken :)

    Time to build a squad. Been brave enough to pick a side for Sri Lankan conditions which meant dropping a senior fast bowler. England of old would have tried to push Root as the 3rd spinner and played another quick or extra batsman. Now carry it through and continue to pick best XI for each...

    No surprises with selection. Wonder whether Bairstow pick is to keep him happy or the best option to balance the side for the match.

    :) but they were one of the high profile teams when Nfl started to be followed over here and remain most valuable sports team in the world (nothing a casual loves more than supporting the biggest)

    Actually a strange mix of teams - would have expected more 49ers,cowboys, patriot fans

    McCoy was a classic example of a College QB from a high pass-based system. Almost like a College Cousins threw huge yards but also turned over the ball a lot. Problem is he is just a back-up (although nicely paid to do so 8m a year) and also has often backed up some pretty weak starters. You may...

    That was just ridiculous. Points being scored at such a rate teams didn't have time to run the ball. Again a couple of highlight reel plays by Rams defenders made the difference. I know the focus on the QBs but that is 2 incredible sets of receivers in terms of catching and route running...

    my bad. He's cleared waivers so is available at a reduced rate but would still be a huge risk with his injury situation.

    Need to create a good pocket for Bradford as needs a bit of time to get rid of the ball but was very good for us. But isn't the issue with Bradford that there is a hefty 2nd year left on his deal 20m+ if he is picked up during the season.

    Not sold on Rams defence as a complete unit. Give up a lot of yds particularly to the run and there are gaps in the secondary . Obviously with Donald have some highlight reel plays but overall are there to be scored on. Agree Mcvay a bold coach it is still a comparatively simple offense done...

    Rams do few things in offense but do them extremely well. Rams been doing just enough to win games. Have they got the scope to kick on? For all the big names on defence haven't actually been defending that well. Kupp potentially a big loss. Give Rams home field advantage by less than 7 pts. But...

    Brees doing great but big part is that offensive line. He has so much time it's unbelievable. Put in 2 quality running backs and a strong receiver core and it's a side almost scoring at will.

    If they go with 2 quicks. Maybe Stokes bowls a bit more and play an extra batsman then just Woakes in. Curran & Anderson only bowled around 50 overs in the 4 innings.
