Ongoing NFL Discussion Thread V

[Pr4wn]

First topic message reminder :

Strong staff for us, I'm excited for next season!

[GSC]

And tbh MVP should be changed to Player of the Year.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I'm not a great fan of Rivera as coach of the year, getting out of his own teams way shouldn't merit great praise, but Kuechly sticks out like a sore thumb. Bowman, Willis, Sherman, Quinn, Thomas and Mathis all were better candidates IMO

JJ Watt as well. I agree it should be player of the year, but it'll never change from MVP

[Thomond]

You should be adding Lavonte David to that list. Kuechly isn't even the best defensive player in the NFC South never mind the NFL. A fair few better LBs then him.

[Bull]

Come on guys one more to join!
The 49ers are team remaining so its pretty good

[Marky]

WHAMMY!

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Still can't believe the season's pretty much over. Only seems like yesterday Amendola had his one good game against Buffalo

[mikeygnfl]

I said similar on some other websites. Arguing that you could take Peyton Manning out of the Broncos team and they would have still had a good shot at the playoffs and Super Bowl and therefore Peyton's value to the teams may not have been as great as some other players on other teams.

No doubt Peyton Manning would win Player of the Year.

[mikeygnfl]

Just looked at my competition and so far 5 have gone for a Broncos win and 5 for a Seahawks win.

[Lowlandbrit]

Speaking of fantasy games, would anyone be interested in an IDP league next season?

[NYJ]

I have too many fantasy leagues that I'm goig to have to ditch some for the start of next year.

I also agree Kuechly was a ridiculous choice.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Ok just heard the Fox theme tune, I'm pumped for this

[Bull]

What do you mean by IDP?

[mikeygnfl]

It should be a very intriguing game.

- Broncos top offence vs Seahawks top defence.
- Broncos top passing offence vs Seahawks top passing defence.
- Seahawks 4th best run offence vs Broncos 7th best run defence.

It looks like an extremely close game on paper. I think the difference could be whether or not the Seahawks can get Marshawn Lynch into Beast Mode. If they can I can see Seattle winning a close game, if not I fee Denver will win by around 7-10 points.

What do you mean by IDP?

Individual Defensive Players. Instead of a team defense slot, you have DL, LB and DB as positions and pick players (that get points for tackles, sacks, interceptions, etc.).

[Bull]

Oh that sounds pretty cool actually.
Oh and Lowland would you be interested in the NFL fantasy game?

[GSC]

Already in an IDP league ( and got screwed out of the final by INT being turned into a Mathis sack fumble)

[mikeygnfl]

Apparently Denver won't be re-signing Eric Decker before the free agency so tonight's Super Bowl could be his Broncos swansong.

[BamBam]

Talking of fantasy, anyone want to try a dynasty type of league? Bit more long term than even our keeper league.

Also, any bets for tonight other than the obvious? Olly I seem to remember u had a couple of ridiculous ones championship weekend with odds clearly set by someone who had no idea about the game

[Bull]

How does a dynasty league work>

[BamBam]

Basically similar to a keeper league, but you keep the majority of your players from one season to the next. In our keeper league, you only keep 3 players, but dynasty usually has far bigger squads and you would probably keep about 15 players, depending on whether you include defensive players or not.

It's pretty intense, but is something I've been wanting to get involved in for a while!

[Bull]

That sounds pretty cool however how would i keep players if i have never played it before?

[mikeygnfl]

I have had Lynch 11/2 and Decker 11/1 to score first TD. No TDs is 200/1 if anyone is interested.

Some other interesting markets include length on the American National Anthem and Bruno Mars' half time headgear.

[BamBam]

That sounds pretty cool however how would i keep players if i have never played it before?

Would need enough people to start the league, then we will have a normal draft like any other league, and your keepers start at end of first season

[Skyforger]

Jeez the C4 commentary is pants.I miss ESPN...

[mikeygnfl]

Not much love for Colin Murray and Vernon Kay. Would have much preferred to see Nat Coombs in the studio with Mike Carlson.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Nothing for me tonight Bambam my account was drained yesterday in a mega loss on the footy!!

And Colin Murray sucks ass

[BamBam]

Length of national anthem was definitely an over

[crazy_dave23]

Its those long final notes...

[crazy_dave23]

Not much love for Colin Murray and Vernon Kay. Would have much preferred to see Nat Coombs in the studio with Mike Carlson.

I always feel they unnecessarily snub Nat Coombs in these situations

[BamBam]

The Sky pundits are going absolutely mental. Cecil sounds like he's about to give birth

[NickisBHAFC]

Come on Seahawks!!!!

[BamBam]

It's probably obvious to all, but let's go Broncos!!!

[Fernando]

The chatbox is open at the bottom of the page if you want to use it for this

Enjoy the game lads

[twelve283]

2 good.   

[BamBam]

Oh dear God

[mikeygnfl]

Betting scam   

[Breadvan]

Evening all. Crazy start....

[mikeygnfl]

Russell Wilson could have run down the right there. Seahawks have come out fast.

[BamBam]

The commentators are making that hit by Chancellor seem a lot better than it was

[mikeygnfl]

I think the Seahawks could get some joy running it more with Russell Wilson.

[Breadvan]

Denver offence having a shocker....Seahawks quarter.

[BamBam]

This could be an earlier night than anticipated

[mikeygnfl]

Great start by the Denver Broncos   

[crazy_dave23]

Well... that wasn't what I expected from Q1!

[mikeygnfl]

Peyton Manning on the phone to Tim Tebow there.

[mikeygnfl]

This could be an earlier night than anticipated

Or a heroic Peyton Manning comeback, greatest ever QB and all that...

[GSC]

Plenty of time yet. Denver isnt going to stall all game (i hope)

[GSC]

About as obvious as PI gets. Denver can't get off the field
