lichtie23 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 That's possibly the worst offensive series iv ever seen from the Raiders. 2 penalties and a bad snap that nearly lead to a safety. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagfox Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Cheers Swarley. Some good value outside the top two. Saints, Bengals Chiefs as outsiders, but early doors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simplistic Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Bears at 18/1 must be worth a shout? Been very impressed with them and think other than their secondary, they will do well this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 dolphins at 28s? Nice 3-0 start inlcuding a good colts outfit and last year's regular season hot team. Peyton likes a wee post season choke and no one else in the afc pulling up trees. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simplistic Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Wembley execs talking about that fact that if a UK franchise was to happen, they'd do what they could do deliver it. BBC Story 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simplistic Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 On that basis - the Colts at 33/1 with Richardson no on board is perhaps a great shout. They destroyed the 49ers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehoss Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Wembley execs talking about that fact that if a UK franchise was to happen, they'd do what they could do deliver it. BBC Story Yeah but it'd still be the jags and they need is it 24 votes from 32. What you would find is the away team essentially being the home team due to support from the crowd. Seems most people would rather support any other team rather than a British NFL team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simplistic Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Again, who did the people of Tennessee support before the Oilers came to town? Was there a whole load of people who had no NFL team? What about the People of LA? How many new Raiders fans would appear if they moved back there? I know there is a very negative approach on here to a UK franchise, but I dont think for a second that is representative of the whole of the UK. I know I'm banging the same old drum, I just think that it could work. Not saying it will, but also not saying it wont. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly but I think that the UK fan base probably has more adopted teams than the fan bases in those situations you spoke of. Would you give up supporting a team you have followed for X amount of years to follow a british team that you don't identify with? Like you say this place isn't representative I just think that many people on here have links/memories related to certain NFL teams for certain reasons and a team moving closer to home won't change that. But it would be interesting too see if it could even get passed never mind what happens once it got here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm banging the same old drum, I just think that it could work. Not saying it will, but also not saying it wont. I think it is cultural. In the USA it is quite common for teams to move cities. So in LA all sorts of teams have moved in there in all different sports. Throw in a huge "immigrant" (from other cities in the US, LA is an incredibly young city) population and people have no strong affiliation to any one team. In tennessee i would imagine the nfl tapped into the existing huge college fanbase rather than people who had exisiting nfl affiliation. In the UK , for the most part, your team is your team and thats it. Now, if you are talking promoting a british team to a new generation of fans you might have a plan but with the exisiting set of fans you are on to a loser. all the polls taken with existing nfl fans in uk show they are not interested in a uk franchise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
