The NFL thread

IL Cattivo

Used these guys to purchase a Sam Bradford (8) Elite Home shirt and everything went very smoothly. Purchase goes through Google checkout and the goods received were deffo authentic as the Jersey had the proper Nike tags and everything described as per the upgraded fabric and stitching compared to the replica shirts.

NFL Jerseys, hats and t-shirts from NFL Merchandise UK

From checkout to delivery took approx 3-4 weeks. Would deffo use them again to avoid potential customs costs....

Also notice that their Elite shirts are much cheaper than FansEdge.

Ressellerratings put me off fansedge. Decided to take a punt on stateside seeing as they say they have a physical store by Nottingham stadium and are mentioned on UK forums via google

Will update

I used stateside to get my superbowl programme and had great service from them.

Well tha wasn't the start I had hoped for. Once again the Giants D was awful in the 2 minute drill and generally awful in the secondary. How we can let them get a first down from 1 & 30 just sums up how poor the defence was.

Eli at least looked good, he just wasn't helped by a uncharacteristic poor display from Cruz, but it's good to see his 4Q play has continued from last season. As for new boy Wilson, he isn't the first and he wont be the last to fumble on his first game, I just hope that he gets another chance.

IL Cattivo

Yeah, Cruz had a right stinker... Fantasy owners would've been pulling their hair out at those drops!

The D could do with having a few lessons in tackling too, how D.Murray got away from those two defenders is anyone's guess!

Nothing to worry about yet though for the Giants, they've got off to slow starts before and come back strong.

Even though the result wasn't what I wanted, fantasy wise the game was great for me. Romo had a solid 300  game and a couple of TDs so got a nice amount of points. I also put in claim for Ogletree off waivers the moment he scored the first TD, fingers crossed that comes off as need a replacement for Burress who doesn't look like he will be picked up by anyone.

But yeah I'm not worried just yet about our season, we will just have to go 18-1 now!

Is there like a highlights show for this in the UK, ideally not on Sky?

Anywhere i can get highlights of Wednesdays NFL kick-off game?

wbabbington

No highlights show that I know of that isn't on sky and I'm guessing as you don't want sky you won't want to shell out for NFL game pass?

But don't forget there will be 2 games a week on 'free' tv. Channel 4 are showing a Sunday night game and Monday night football is on the BBC on the red button. You might be able to find highlights on an American sports website like FOX sports, SB nation (can't remember who broadcast wednesdays game but they might have it as well) etc.

As an update can recommend stateside website. Ordered Tuesday night and item dispatched next day. Unknown to me it was via Royal Mail 1st class recorded (not made clear on email invoice) and arrived on Thurs, but only collected it today having been at work for the original delivery. Shame they do not have as large a collection as these import sites. Wonder if they would order something on my behalf from US?....
