yup. One of the things I was worried about was going down to the in-laws and not getting to see the games, but now this may not happen, so I reckon that's me sorted with NFL for Christmas.

Crazy situation for the Lions game on Saturday. A load of coaches are on the Covid list due to being a close contact of someone who tested positive.

This has resulted in the HC, OC, DC and all the rest of defensive staff unable to coach against the Buccs, with the NFL having denied a request to have the game rescheduled to Sunday, in which case they would have been grand.

For Saturday the new HC is WR coach Robert Prince. Calling the offence is QB coach Sean Ryan & calling the defence is head coach assistant Evan Rothstein. Those assistants have never called game before.

Can't help but suspect that if it was certain other teams accommodations would have been made.

Imagine if they had no quarterbacks available...

To liven up Christmas Day, could you name those teams?

Terry Bradshaw is either daft or drunk on the Fox pre game show.

Terry is not all there and hasn't been for a while,and it flummoxes me that he's still warning a crust on Fox and on reality TV.

The Bucs game looks over. 2 TDs from 2 drives and Chase Daniel in for Stafford.

Bucks with a third TD. 20 -0 and it’s still the first half. The game last night wasn’t entertaining because the vikings defence(being generous using that word) was the utter pits.

TD bucs. Likely 27-0 with five minutes left in the half. Hopefully the niners and cardinals game will more competitive because on the latest TD Brady had all day to find Chris Godwin.
