Obviously the Seahawks haven't been the force so far that they were last season, but I still think its an impressive win for the Cowboys as they were in the Century Link. I know home team advantage is widely regarded in sport, but that place just sounds on a whole other level incredible when the Seahawks play.

The Eagles will definitely be more of a challenge than the Giants yes, but I genuinely think the Cowboys will have more hassle from the Colts and Cardinals.

I know it's crazy right, I like watching Harvin when he plays too, he's really impressive. I know a few people on here like Geno Smith, but I don't see it myself. The Jets will not get the best out of Harvin while Smith is still under centre.

I can't believe Green Bay shat the bed like that. A great opportunity to silence those bloody annoying Seattle fans, now we have to listen to them go on about their stadium and fans being such a facto

As for the game, that was really something special. Firstly, Brady's second half drive was astounding to watch, and pretty much shows why he'll go down as one of the greatest. Plus Belichik's trust to

I've been to three NFL games and the atmosphere is completely different to football. I much prefer the atmosphere at football, because it is mainly created by the segregation of the fans. At NFL the

Baz is a Giants fan and what he says echos what I believe, The Cowboys may be powering up the power rankings but they beat a Seattle team in the middle of a wobble and they just managed to beat a Giants team they probably should have stuffed.

The Cowboys strength of schedule this year is weak as shit. The other games they won are the Titans, Rams, Saints and Texans all of which have loosing records right now; have their issues and none of which you would fear this year..........Oh and they only squeezed past those Texans......

The 49ers are the only team the Cowboys have played this season so far that have a winning record and they lost to them

Im not saying the Cowboys are shit or anything, but they need to do a lot more for me to convince me they can do anything worthwhile in the post season.

Their next game against the Skins will tell us nothing. The game against the Cards will say a lot! And those two Eagles games are going to be juciy! (hopefully!)

I look forward to the Redskins Cowboys games so much because the rivalry shows on the pitch, they are possibly the most aggressive matches in the game.You can just feel it.

I genuinly think I love watching those games more than when we play the Jets or Pats, it's great to be a neutral for a rivalry game, you don't get pissed off after the result! haha

The Cards game will be their biggest test (in my opinion anyway, pretty sure i've said that before haha). Just like I said that I don't think that they'll do very well if they do make post-season. But for me right now, they're enjoyable to watch and look very solid.

Its a crazy early start for them over in the US. 13.30 in the UK will be 9.30 in Detroit. The clock going back in the UK this weekend actually makes this better, as it would have been 8.30 in the morn otherwise

Its going to be one mega long day of NFL and sport on Sunday. 13.30 Lions/Falcons. Utd V Chelsea @ 16.00. Ravens/Bengals @ 17.00. Eagles/Cards @ 20.00 and then Packers/Saints @ 00.00 with a bank holiday Monday in place so as to stay up late on Sunday and stay in bed with a hangover................... :) Happy days!

Oh balls! Didn't realise Cardinals were on Sky this week. Means a blackout on Gamepass :(

My day will work out pretty much the same except I'll be watching RedZone at 17:00!

Shame San Diego/Denver is tonight, should be a great game. Time difference sucks.

So you dont have SS but do Game Pass instead and if a game you want to watch is on SS you just watch Red Zone on GP?

What will you do during the Playoffs? Doesnt SS black out all the Playoffs except the SB on GP?

I do have SS, just won't have access to the TV Sunday evening! Will just have to watch through the shitty Sky Go feed, which is better than nothing I guess.

I'll watch the Cardinals always, but often watch Redzone when they're not playing. If there's a particularly gripping game, I'll switch to that.

Think the playoff games weren't blacked out last year but can't be certain.

Im close to 100% that the Playoffs on GP are blacked out. If they were not I would drop SS like a hot snot. Its an utter rip and I dont care for football as much as I did to push me to have it just for the Premier League. In fact most years I only subscribe to SS for the duration of the NFL season.

Edit - This is what is say of the GP website "Additional blackout restrictions apply in the UK and Republic of Ireland. Blacked-out games, including Playoff games, will be made available on demand in the NFL Game Pass archives 24 hours after their original telecast."

Use VPN routed through Holland or somewhere else!

Same goes for the Play offs and superbowl, watched them all (when awake! :P) last year on Game Pass.

The Holland thing does not work anymore. I believe it worked using New Zealand and Argentina for a while also but they dont work anymore.

Are you watching GP via a routed VPN this season?

Just been at the fan rally in Trafalgar square. Very good fun. Plenty going on. Certainly seems to be a real buzz about the sport as a whole

We got there at about 3, thought it was cool but the audience was a bit flat. Merch is way expensive! I want a football, have to look at the stadium.

Our megabus pulled alongside the Falcons bus taking them to Trafalgar square earlier, it was quite cool, the players were lifting their jerseys to the windows.

Yeah couldn't hear what the ref was saying and I'm still not sure what happened on the last play but the game was fun to watch.

New Wembley is pretty good too.

Oh and i expected merch to be expensive but it seemed excessively expensive.

      sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.

      Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.

      I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…

      Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.
