raiders at wembley next year wooooooooo

 

[SilverHood]

Bradshaw out for rest of season... that Trent Richardson trade doesn't look so bad now!

 

[Aoami]

How awful is the news about APs son. Absolutely shocking, poor bloke.

 

[Aoami]

Pryor having a bit of a mare today. Protection is poor and he is panicking.

 

[Cerb]

My word....was that real life? TFB just....words fail me.

 

[SilverHood]

My word....was that real life? TFB just....words fail me.

There's a reason he's sleeping with Gisele Bündchen ... he's very good with his hands!

 

[Aoami]

7 weeks in and the chiefs are the only undefeated team. Amazing!

 

[Cerb]

Pryor...oh my.

 

[Aoami]

8-0 Chiefs waaaaat. Pryor is a beast. I was so dubious about him starting after I saw him in week 17 last year, but we just might have a franchiser here.

 

[Aoami]

We are killing it. blocked punt again, even dmc looking good

 

[Aoami]

Throwing this one away...

 

[SilverHood]

Throwing this one away...

Playing the Steelers... unless they get fired up playing the Ravens, Browns or Bengals, they are mostly terrible.

Some amazing games today. Detroit Lions.... Megatron receiving for over 300 yards!

Giants winning, with NO interceptions by Manning. What will the NY post be writing about? Probably the Jets, now that they are back to their awful ways? And they were bad. Bengals are looking like real play off contenders now.

 

[Aoami]

How is everyone doing in Fantasy? I am 5-3 in both leagues, occupying the final playoff birth in both.

 

[SilverHood]

My NFC division standings:
7-1-0
5-3-0 (me)
4-4-0
4-4-0
4-4-0
3-5-0

AFC standings
7-1-0
6-2-0
3-5-0
3-5-0
1-7-0
1-7-0

Top 4 teams in each division go to playoffs, standard season is 13 games and 3 playoff matches. It's going to be tight in my division, especially since our AFC guys are having a bad year, letting people get wins with 70 points!

What a TD catch by Brandon Marshall!!

This GB @ CHI game is turning out really well

 

[Aoami]

Another season to forget for the Raiders. Roll on 2014!

I think half the team will be cut/released again, not many players on the 1 year deals kept on. I think after Pryors showing yesterday we'll take a QB in the first round. We're drafting 5th, so Derek Carr perhaps?

RunDMC is gone surely, i'd like to pick up MJD for a year or 2. We need receivers, we need interior linemen, we need a TE, we need a DE, we need a CB and a FS. Can't pick up them all in the draft (not starters anyway) but we have at least $60m cap space next year to bring in some quality free agents.

Here's a cool article showing how good each franchise has been at drafting... from 1970 to 2007.

As a Ravens fan, I'm happy with our defense. I thought losing Dannell Ellerbe to the Dolphins was going to wreck us, but we've done OK this season. Our offense has just stunk, with Flacco having no circus catch receivers until Dennis Pitta got back, and a running game that was just embarrassing most of the time, most likely due to the fact that opposing teams knew we had no one to throw the ball to except Smith, and he couldn't outmuscle guys like Boldin used to.

I'm hoping we get another good TE to replace the woeful Ed Dickson, and a quick tight end to run the short routes that for some reason, Smith is no longer running.

Predictions for the SB? I'm thinking a Bengals - Seahawks final.

 

[Calaen]

Could hardly watch the packers v bears game. Was so nervous, packers defense has been been mangled with injuries. But they've managed to scrape in to the post season. Heres hoping for another SB appearance the Pack. Although the sea hawks look like the team to beat

 

[SilverHood]

They had the game on when I was going through US immigration on Sunday, looked brutally cold and miserable for both teams. Still can't believe how the Lions threw their post season away. It was practically in the bag coming into week 10.

Colts - Seahawks. I think the Colts will beat the Broncos en route and much lolling will ensue.

Play-offs!!

 

[Aoami]

Chiefs killing it. Soon as Charles went down I thought it was all over for them. Smith Having a great game.

 

[Raven]

Going to see Raiders vs Dolphins at Wembley in September!

 

[Aoami]

[Aoami]

[Raven]

Not sure they have gone on public sale yet - Or at least without a season ticket.

 

[Aoami]

[Aoami]

[Raven]
