TartanTeddy Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 I was going up against Aaron Rodgers in fantasy football this week, and Gronkowski 2 weeks ago. The Chicago Bears are killing me! They have been abysmal... Join the gang, Rodgers and his 57 fantasy point performance in our league cost me victory!! You should both be thankful that the NFL still displays a significant level of sportsmanship because Rodgers only played about ten minutes of the second half and the Pack basically stopped trying - so could have been a hell of a lot worse, because that final score actually flatters the Bears! Likewise, Brady got pulled and Gronk missed out on quite a few snaps the week before. I think the Bears might do a mini bounce back the next couple of weeks - but be careful when they come up against the Lions because it could also be quite a mauling on Thanksgiving in Detroit!

giblet Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Unfortunately Green Bay will never come unless its someone elses home game, as they are only team owned by the fans and they would never give up a home game as there is like a 30 year waiting list for Packers season ticket, i am a packers fan but only way i will get see them will be go over to a game If I was choosing my NFL team again, it would be the Packers. Purely for their ownership model and size of city versus the rest. Unfortunately I'm stuck with the Cowboys who come across a bit Chelsea these days.

Yeah been a Packers fan since 1991 and was only 10 since my parents bought me a Packers Cap and Jacket out of the forge and always love them since, obviously never knew about fan ownership till later on but glad my parents picked good team for me :>) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killiefaetheferry Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I adopted the Bears circa 1985/86 as I was in Halls of Residence at Dundee Uni with a guy from Champagne, Illinois - the year they played the Pats in the Superbowl - we also had 2 girls from New England there so was a great night with everybody taking sides. .

Ally Bongo Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Was at Foxboro for the Patriots game. Enjoyable stuff, the Pats are rolling... Good stuff Had a wee treble up - Tottenham, Patriots -7 and Bears -4 on the spreads. Bears were looking grim till the second half The question as always is can the Patriots carry their regular season form into the playoffs Guess it's all about Gronkowski keeping 100% as he is without doubt the most potent weapon in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morrie21 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Thanksgiving triple header on today from 1730. 3 good games. Hoping my Bears can pull an unlikely win out the bag in Detroit to get things started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killiefaetheferry Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Yes Seattle might do ok v 69ers, and Philly/Dallas could be high scoring. Might try total points markets instead. Sky going 100/30 Denver/Dallas/S Francisco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolhibby Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 The Bears v Lions game was great. Megatron getting a couple of TDs. The Cowboys are imploding at home. J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Bongo Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Against my better judgement i have had a few pennies on the Patriots to turn over the Packers at Lambeau, purely based on Green Bay's performance against the Jets earlier in the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL - definitely not They did me a turn last weekend Also our season was over (officially) last week so my interest now is purely financial. You wont lose betting the Pats every week And whisper it - but i think everyone that likes NFL can appreciate the way the Pats offense plays - there is plenty time to go And the Jets will need more than 7 of a start tomorrow - remember i want them to lose every game from now on this season as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Giant Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 (edited) Rex will sicken you one last time by getting a win or two. You know he will! From what I saw earlier, there are some seriously terrible teams in the NFL at the moment. You can only hope that the Jaguars and Raiders wont pick a QB 2 years in a row. But, the Titans, Bucs or Redskins might scupper your plans... Edited November 30, 2014 by The Giant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killiefaetheferry Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Miami scoring 36 although losing by 3 at the Broncos.....Can't help but think it shows they can compete with the top teams on the road. The Jets getting pumped last week as well makes me think Miami by quite a lot. Going -13.5 Miami, and only because I landed a 27 pound profit from a free Ladbokes 'spin', I am giving them back a fiver for 66/1 Miami -43.

Ally Bongo Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Had the Pats +3 doubled with Denver Totally raging at the missed field goal near the end which would have meant the Packers could have run out the game and won by 2 Id like to think that im an expert in the Jets so - Most Jets fans want them to lose all of their remaining games for draft purposes Geno isnt the best and his confidence is shot - one interception or fumble by him and it could be a rout Jets have arguably their best player - Mo Wilkerson - out along with big tight end Amaro Miami playing really well this season and nobody gives the Jets a chance Jets to win or at least beat the spread - Seen it a hundred times Edited December 1, 2014 by Ally Bongo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
