TBH, I think it's the way they've handled themselves, Mangold didn't hold out when he was told to by his agent and got his new contact and is probably the best C in the game, Harris is due for a contract and he isn't complaining and he's a good linebacker. I like players who keep quiet over contracts etc (sounding like BB now

) they know they're making more then most people will in a lifetime and aren't kicking up a big fuss over it.

Thinking about it, if a player is good I don't care which team they play for (unless it's Pittsburgh

)

Given that I only got into the game around 2000 this is going to be all modern players.

Me too mate it was around 1997/1998 when I first started to watch games, I wonder who has been watching it the longest on this thread?

Andy Gilder and G1 I'd guess. Though they don't venture to these pastures too often!

1988 I started. I think the bears fans started earlier.

I started watching American Football when it first aired on Channel 4.

I am giving my age away but i watched the first highlights show channel 4 aired in think it was in 1982



It was on early sunday evening for half an hour.. it was the Cowboys v Steelers, Terry Bradshaw was still quarterback for Pittsburgh.

Im not a devoted fan like most on here (i don't have Sky) but enjoy watching the games when i can.

Good luck to the Seahawks today

Not in any possible way the best players ever but my favourites!

Has anyone seen SKY`s advert for the Wembley game?

Looking forward to our game against San Diego, a game any team could win by any score IMO, just like the Ravens game last week.

Looking forward to seeing Steven Jackson and Sam Braford too

San Diego have Crayton and that's it, Schefter said about 10 minutes ago it's likely Gates wont be playing too.

So its the Rams-Bucs yet, once again, it's all about the 49ers

"TE Antonio Gates' toe, the same toe he once had surgery on, is bothering him. Knows he shouldn't play, but still will try. Very iffy."

Hope he isn't too effective then, it'll be hard for Rivers if Gates can't get open or even run.

Know you know why they put 2 teams that no-one cares about on





Cant believe they have just shown the same clip with Montana that they did last week

Our secondary is terrible, he could still have a field day!

I want Rivers to get me some fantasy points whilst losing thats all I ask for

It's a ing joke. Two exciting young teams yet it's all about the Wembley game, again. Be pleased when it's gone

Now Singletary. Are Halling and Cadle on commission for Wembley. This is taking the . There are so many pieces they could have done for this Rams-Bucs game yet they have plugged the ing sold out Wembley game, AGAIN! Will we get any comments during the game? Or will that also be about the 49ers?

TBF mate Cadle did say they were going to be talking about the cockney bowl a lot at the start of the show.

I wish Nick halling would fall down a mine shaft

Terrible is a bit harsh, they stepped up big time last week, if they play like that again it'll be all good.

Cunningham had Oher in fits too so if he can play that well again he will get to Rivers often.

A lot been the whole show? Are Denver not bothering to turn up next week? I've yet to hear them mentioned. It's a take.

I think Sky's coverage is the best of the lot we get over here but pre-game is terrible this year.

I'm sure they are having a bet about how many times they can mention an NFL fan rally.

Let's hear what Frank Gore said 3 months ago. That has a lot to do with this weeks NFL action

The 49ers are the home team, Im sure they will talk about the Broncos in the breaks they have after all the interceptions that are being lobbed during the game

Don't care if Bradford throws 15 picks, so long as we come out on top. Which I am scarily confident of us doing!



Yeah they are at home but the majority of the people at the game aren't going to be 49ers fans.

Jesus they are talking about the game
