NFL 2025

Titans get their first win of the season in crazy style 22-21 with a walk off field goal. What the hell did I just watch.

Cardinals scored TDs on their first 3 drives, they were stomping all over us (it would have seemed insanity for anyone to suggest they would not score another point). Titans offence was just abysmal. Lucky to get 6 points (2 FGs). Offense was somehow even worse in the 3rd quarter, barely able to get a 1st down.

However......

Our defence stepped up and Arizona started to crumble. Then....(so funny), their RB breaks through the line and runs 70 yards to the endzone to score a touchdown...but the f*cking idiot dropped the ball before crossing the line (yes, that STILL happens) and it gets overturned. Would have been 28-6 and game even more over than it looked. After that, momentum turned towards the Titans. Cam Ward came alive, drove down the field and Pollard gets a TD.

Then we get a stop and we drive 60 yards down the field and then one of the bizarrest TDs I've seen. Ward throws, it gets tipped and one of the defense catches it for an interception - would likely have been game over...but he takes a few steps and falls down and the ball comes out before contact. Then there's a scramble and one of their players did his version of that goofy penalty kick thing that Trunds does where he pretends he's going to pick up the ball, but kicks it instead, that shoots the ball back towards the endzone, other defenders try and stop it, but just end up pushing it back further into their own endzone and Locket comes round and jumps on it, TD Titans. Comedy stuff.

We make another stop and get down the field again and our kicker whose missed 4 FG already this season, including a PAT today, get's the walk-off FG. Watching stuff like that is why sports fans exist. The Titans could not have been more dead and buried in that game, but somehow came back to win. I can't imagine what I'd be feeling if I was a Cardinals fan. That was brutal.

Never cheered so hard for the Titans! Couldn't have been a much better week for the Niners. Beat one division rival on Thursday against the odds considering how many players are missing, then our other 2 division rivals both lose to walk-off field goals yesterday.

I'm still not convinced the 49ers can really challenge this season (we've got a top-heavy squad with a lot of money going to a small group of players and are reliant on rookies and second year players to plug gaps), but can't have asked for much more than being 4-1 before taking on Mayfield and the Bucs this weekend.

If we somehow win that one, Lynch and Shanahan may decide to part with valuable draft capital to go all in on this season. Trey Hendrickson on a 1-year rental to replace Bosa?

I know very little about American Football but I have friends who live in Pittsburgh who are Steelers fanatics.
I've been around the stadium with them but never to a game so I kind of follow them and am happy for them when the Steelers win.

Pats just won in Buffalo. Thats a seismic shift. It wasnt a lucky win. Bill have had their run of that division and won nothing. Changes are afoot. I will say it a again. Maye is for real. Diggs was unreal against his old team. Things have definitely improved.

That was the other game I watched yesterday. Diggs was certainly on a mission.
Maye was impressive. That scramble play where he had a Bills players hanging on his back and still got the ball to Diggs for 1st down on the sideline was hero stuff.

Patriot since 1983. My dad was seconded to Danby, Vermont to do field test of a tunneling machine at the Marble quarry there. When he came back I had a new hat. PAtriots of course.We watched C4 on Fri nights(thats when NFL was on at that time) Patriots were really bad back then. Seeing the dynasty happen(twice) has been quite something. LAst 6 years have been miserable though.

I cannot claim the same loyalty and have basically followed whoever I last saw live. Went to Buffalo a few times for work twenty odd years ago, attended a couple of games so followed them. Then had seven great years of back and forth to Shelbyville TN, so it was all about the Titans (Nashville is immense, by the way). Those days seem sadly over and Detroit two or three times a year has brought the Lions onto the scene.

Just on My way back from Cincinnati- where the Lions destroyed a Burrowless Bengals team. Nice downtown and stadium - stayed across the river in Covington Kentucky. Great road trip

Emotional return for DMo too, great for him to play in front of his sister for the first time.

I'm back in Wales now after a great 12 days in the U.S. Was stunned by how warm it was for this time of the year, my wife was looking forward to fall but we ended up severely overdressed for 26 degrees. Loved the lakes, could quite happily live off Lake Michigan, we visited Saugatuc and Holland.

I didn't mention before but in the Browns Lions game watching a punt returned live for a touchdown by Kalif Raymond was possibly one of the most exciting sporting "plays" I have seen. Watching it unfold in real time at the stadium was amazing.

Glad you enjoyed the trip! Ford Field is bouncing these days.. unfortunately ticket prices are 5x to get in since the Lions got hot.
I bought STANDING tickets gor the Steelers game just before Xmas ((cheapest option) $285 USD each When the Lions stunk you could tailgate at the Eastern market a match day ticket and ride the tunnel bus in and out of Windsor Detroit for $80 all in.
Progress eh!!!

Mostly Dolphins but I've mellowed over the years, they'll do that to you.
