NFL Season 2015/16

[HH3]

Walsh should have made the shot, but he should never have been put in that position.

He was the only player to score for the Vikings. I'd blame this loss on the offense more so than Walsh.

[FlyingHigh]

Agree HH3, and sort of wrote that earlier.
Everyone, including Walsh, needs to take their share of the fault. Being gifted field position 30-40 yards out in the first quarter and only coming up with a field goal, the Petersen fumble in the last, even not making the final first-down when there was plenty of time on the clock that would have given us a couple of shots at a touchdown. Plenty of other examples I'm sure.

Playoff schedule according to NFL.com

Sunday - Australian time

Kansas City @ Houston 8:05am

Pittsburgh @ Cincinnati 11:45am

Monday

Seattle @ Minnesota 4:35am

Green Bay @ Washington 8:10am

I would say, without looking, that all away teams will start favourites with the bookies.

Edit: all bar the Packers have opened favourites.

All the away teams won.

Can see a couple getting up this week, but a lot will depend on injuries to Steelers, Pats and Seahawks.

You certainly proved why you beat me in the tipping comp

Rams are officially heading back to LA, vote got up today for the Inglewood project.
Chargers have been given a 3 year time frame to get a better deal in SD or move in with the Rams. Raiders have been shut out as predicted but will get funding to build a new stadium in the Bay area

Really.

All I've been hearing is SD and Oakland getting the nod to share Carson. And the Rams having to stay put.

My Facebook news feed was full of articles from NFL.com, Fox Sports and CBS Sports all saying the same thing.

Rams want to go it alone and they would be my bet as two teams moving at once might not be ideal.

Not over yet. Chargers owners are backed in to a corner. They either share with the Rams or stay in SD for good. It's predicted that they will join the Rams sooner rather than later.
Apparantly they will play at the Coliseum until works are completed.

Not at the same time though as I said

Massive for the Rams. They're gonna have one of the biggest fanbases in the country overnight.

I thought they originally left LA because they had no fans?

They did. But that was 21 years ago.

I think now that the NFL has grown so much over that time, an LA team would rake in supporters. From home and abroad.

Left because stadium was crap, they still have plenty of fans there and for many LA people it's "their" team

[Fluffbag]

With team or teams in LA, which city will the owners threaten to move to so they can blackmail their city to pay for stadiums that they can't afford.

Send the Rams back to their original town, Cleveland. They better than the Browns, but hey, who isn't?

[Jim05]

Under the terms, the Chargers have 1 year to decide if they want to move in with the Rams if they don't take up the option it will be offered to the Raiders.
Apparantly Spanos and Kroenke are meeting tonight and a decision could be made within a few weeks

[Fluffbag]

The issue with Oakland is the terrible stadium is use for both baseball and football so can they really afford 2 new stadiums or will have to lose one team as can't see having multi-purpose stadiums anymore.

Already lost the Warriors back to San Francisco
