NFL Game Day Thread Sunday & Monday Week 1 08-09 Sept 24

Good afternoon or good morning everybody!
IT’S …TIME!

The first Sunday is the real opening day for the NFL.

Now we all have schedules, and well, mine on late summer or autumn weekends is to use the weather to my advantage rather than watching the earlier games, or just background noise.

The evening Sunday NFL window is my favourite, so that’s usually when I am going to be around unless the Eagles are playing in that time slot.

The Sunday night game - not so much. I don’t know about you all, but I’ve had enough of sports by 1900 on Sunday nights,
but there are two great match-ups on Sunday night and Monday night here in opening week as well so have at it.

Extended Highlights Tip USA and Perhaps Beyond

The highlights on Sunday nights via NBC SUCK. They were so much better back in the day on NFL Primetime - anybody remember?

In the US or otherwise for those with access to Pluto TV,
beyond YouTube extended highlights for games now posted quickly by the NFL instead of via the NFL website,
there are also solid highlights available via the NFL’s own channel via free Pluto TV as well as via its CBS Sports channel Sunday into Monday,
so have at it like this as opposed to having to look everything up yourself for all the games you could not watch.

Looking forward to the games!

Tom Brady will be making his booth debut during the Cowboys/Browns game at 4:25pm. I will probably be tuning into that game over any others.

Ended up making a few bucks betting on the NFL/CFL over the last couple of days and am looking for more :sweat_smile:

  • $1.46 on Washington Kicker Cade York making over 1.5 field goals for a payout of $3.14
  • $1.50 on Jacksonville Kicker Cam Little making over 2.5 extra points for a payout of $3.68
  • $5.00 on Detroit RB David Montgomery rushing for over 54.5 yards for a payout of $9.25

I’m not really a huge gambler but placing these small bets has been pretty fun lol We’ll see if I’m rolling in dough by the end of the season

The Bears’ Williams is looking OK. Some first game butterflies including a 19 yard sack. Ouch!

Bogus DPI against the Giants gives the Viqueens a free TD. Giants throwback unis look like the Habs.

Bengals just had a TD wiped off the board and then threw a pick right away *edit it was a fumble. Brutal!

As a Ravens fan I hope it happens again to them LOL

Viqueens manhandling the Giants so far and Jax up 14-0 on Miami, putting me in line for an 0-4 start. Those are the games on cable in my area and coincidentally are the games for the pool as well.

Agreed that the game of the day is next with Dallas at Cleveland and the muzzled Brady on colour. Not a fan of his and don’t think he’ll be particularly good. He has a large hill to climb to even reach Romo’s level much less the GOAT Aikman.

I love it for the early bracket. Unless my team is playing I have no way of keeping up with 8 games lol.

That’s one thing I like about the CFL. I can usually watch every single game of the season.

Unbelievable play in Chicago. Williams throws a rocket, ricochets, caught by the Bears, fumbles it, recovered by the Bears.

For sure in the early bracket…I’m a life long Seahawks fan so I’ll watch that game end to end, but for the eastern teams that I don’t follow closely this is very entertaining…
