Anyone not going to use their tickets to this NFL Dublin event?

Dibs!!

I won 2 pairs but they're both in my name, I don't know how that would work if I gave a pair to someone?

Interesting perspective from Sherman on being cut and the negotiations with the 49ers

Have we hit peak NFL off season already?? A naked Zay Jones being arrested for trying to jump through a 30th floor window, claiming he wanted to 'Fight for Jesus'.

Lucky his brother was there to stop him. At this stage it would nearly be safer for the players if the season was made longer, less time to get themselves into trouble.

Same. I got two 'winning' emails to my same email address, 2 hours apart. If I print off both will four people get access?

I’m in same boat- used work and personal email addresses, got emails on each, not sure if I put my name down on both or if I put mine on one and girlfriend on other

do the fixtures dates come out after the draft?

No, look again. The first email has a typo in it, the date of the event was wrong.
It's the same invite just fixed.

Not sure how you could pass on an envite to someone else as there are no "tickets" as such, just your name on a list plus guest.

Aaah, good spot.

We'd actually noticed the Belfast day was down for Dublin on the first but never thought the second was just to fix the typo. They should have referenced it.

I'd assumed I just registered twice.

Pre-season should be released shortly, the regular season is just before the draft generally,

After a scaldy first 2 games and 2 victories against eventual Super Bowl teams Patriots and Eagles last year hoping for an opening weekend home game against The Browns or someone of that ilk for my Chiefs

AdrianII · 22-03-2018 08:25PM

Reckon the players will hang round to meet the fans afterwards?

I might have a spare one but you’d have to meet me at the door and come in with me. (I think)

The first comment on this Facebook post by Schefter's is brilliant

The 2016 Browns finished with a 1-15 record.

Their top QB was Josh McCown, top RB was Isaiah Crowell and their top WR was Terrelle Pryor.

All 3 signed with the Jets this offseason.

Billy86 · 23-03-2018 12:54PM

That's a solid rotational RB, a good stop-gap QB and a WR with a lot of talent but a lot of question marks too... those three lads aren't why they were 1-15.

Aenaes · 23-03-2018 01:24PM

Josh McCown signed with the Jets last season though.

To a one year deal, and then another one year deal this year

Chiefs D still all over the shop

I'd fancy us to put 25+ past most teams with an offence of Watkins, Kelce, Hunt, Hill and Mahomes, but keeping them out at the other end gonna be a right problem this season

Smacks of an 8-8 season

I might have spare one too, will post up here if I do.

A word of warning, I "won" tickets to a free event before in the Olympia and they always "oversell the event in case of no-shows" so I missed out by not arriving early enough. I say the convention centre can handle a good crowd tho.

Allen Hurns headed to Big D...
Dallas gets in the action in free agency...
$ value is so affordable there's no roster cuts required...

I like that pick up for them. They really need an injection at WR. For too long they've been ultra reliant on Dez.

I wonder if the Seahawks knew this was coming and the Eagles didnt

Regrettably cannot make the convention centre tomorrow night! I’ve 2 seats reserved, late timing to email them back I’d have thought it is it? If you don’t need identification to get in, I’d gladly send the booking name onto someone who private mails me if interested, if that’ll work?

If true, that's absolutely appalling.

I'm in same boat unfortunately, dying to go but something's come up.

If anyone wants to DM me I can forward my name and the email they sent me to gain access.
