lichtie23 Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) Week 8 sees another London game as the Broncos and Jags face off in a “Blockbuster” of a matchup. The week kicks off with the Ravens travelling to the struggling Buccs. A reminder that the clocks go back here on Sunday morning so the Sunday kickoffs are earlier this week. TNF Ravens @ Buccaneers London Game (Sunday) Broncos Vs Jaguars (1.30pm) Early Sunday (5pm) Panthers @ Falcons Bears @ Cowboys Dolphins @ Lions Cardinals @ Vikings Raiders @ Saints Patriots @ Jets Steelers @ Eagles Late Sunday (8.05/25) Giants @ Seahawks Titans @ Texans Commanders @ Colts 49ers @ Rams SNF (12.20am) Packers @ Bills BYE’s - Chargers and Chiefs Edited October 26, 2022 by lichtie23 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted October 26, 2022 Author Share Posted October 26, 2022 There is only 1 matchup between 2 winnings teams in week 8…….and as expected it’s the Giants Vs Seahawks! The game in Seattle is probably the game of the week with the Rams Vs 49ers maybe 2nd best. Packers have been awful of late so can’t really say their visit to Buffalo will be exciting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 There is some good news. Just checked the zebras assignments, and we’re not getting Shawn Hochuli or Land Clark in London. Thank F. Willie Collummmmmm! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Meh. The annual autumn weekend each year where there is no NFL football. Suppose I could always suggest to the girlfriend that we watch a movie or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Green Bay have never won in Buffalo in a regular season match. At first that stat seems weird.. Then you think ah they only play each other in Buffalo once every 8 years at the moment (not sure what cross conference frequency was pre-2002 alignment)... But then you think "hang on, GB have had Favre and Rodgers for the past 30 years" But no, Favre was 0-3 and Rodgers is 0-1. It's also the first time in his NFL career Rodgers has been a double-digit underdog. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it was the old 5 team divisions you only played four opponents in your cross-conference games every year, so it was theoretically possible to never encounter an opponent. Chargers didn't play the Redskins between '89 and '98, and didn't see the Lions between '84 and '96 The fact there was one 4 team division meant that you saw really odd schedules from time to time. I remember one year in the mid 90's the Redskins and Bucs played each other both home and away in the same season despite being in different NFC divisions. I'd imagine that came about because one of them played the 4 team AFC Central but only had 3 cross-conference games due to playing in a 5 team division themselves, and the other played the 4 team NFC West. There were no doubt other quirks, but that's the one that sticks in my mind. Edited October 26, 2022 by Boo Khaki 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Clyde Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Think Denver have never won at Lambeau, which again seems mad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky have gone with Pats @ Jets and Niners @ Rams. Probably not too much of a surprise I guess. Already looking forward to extreme disappointment on Sunday night with my Niners as always 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brummie Clyde Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Patriots Jets should be good. Will Jones or Zappe start? 49ers and Rams have both disappointed so far this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 A dominant second half by the Ravens so far, trailed 10-3 at halftime but lead 24-13 midway through the 4th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Couple of new records for Tom.It's apparently the first time in his career that he has ever been 2 games below .500.He is now the most sacked QB in NFL history. It was very funny that he equalled the record on one play, then broke it on the next. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Clyde Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 You wondered how they would cope protecting Brady with the injuries to their Interior OLine and frankly they haven't. Which is a crying shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
