That's it, I know we weren't picked for any other reason than that we were facing the Packers. Have you got SkySports Mix? I was pleased to find its free on my VirginMedia package and it shows RedZone on a Sunday.

I don't have that, I slashed my VM bill by about 70% so have basically the bare minimum. I watch Red Zone on gamepass either on my mac or apple tv. Gamepass is just great especially now they added all the shows such as America's Game and A Football Life to the apple tv version of the app too.

Not sure how long RedZone will stay on Mix. Seem to recall that at the pre-season event in Portsmouth they said it was only going to be for the first few weeks of the season. Hope not as it is much easier to flick between RedZone and the main game when you haven't got to wait for interactive mode to load.

I thought that may well be the case with RedZone. I've got GamePass but seeing as the Jags were on bye week it was nice to sit and enjoy the mayhem of Mix.

Broncos lose to the Chargers, 2 defeats in a week for the Super Bowl champs. Put the raiders in a good position going into this weekends games that's for sure!

The Denver offense was totally anaemic last night, & they killed themselves with penalties.
Great defensive game from the Bolts though, & Bosa is looking pretty darn good after 2 weeks. Those uniforms were a real hark back to the glory days of Fouts, Joiner, Winslow, & Air Coryell too....they need to go back to them permanently - fantastic!
As a Browns fan (with a soft spot for the Chargers) who still has vivid memories of The Drive & The Fumble, its always good to see the Broncos lose.....

Good game from Rivers but looking at the stats on last nights game and it's all pretty even up until this;
Penalties
Denver 12-103
San Diego 3-20
Not going to win a game with discipline like that.

Rivers became the all-time passing leader for the Chargers yesterday.
His career reminds me a bit of Marino's, an all-time great Quarterback let down by the odd choke, a generally terrible running game and some pretty poor defenses. I was watching Don Shula talking about Marino on one of those history programs that the NFL does so well and he said something along the lines of how could you have a Quarterback of Marino's ability and not give him weapons to work with in the passing game (often to the detriment of the overall team) I get the feeling the front office at The Chargers have suffered the same dilemma.
To think The Chargers had two of the all-time top ten passers by QBR on their roster at the same time. Would things have been any different for them if they'd kept Brees?

That's a whopper of a win for the Chargers. I'm looking forward to watching the highlights tonight. Bosa is the guy I desperately wanted the Jags to draft but, having said that Ramsey has been superb.

So frustrating for Rivers. I'd love to see him have a genuine shot at a title. Looks like Andrew Luck may go the same way.

Although I have a soft spot for the Chargers (my childhood friend moved there 30 years ago) I am a little disappointed that Rivers broke the record. Sounds silly I know, as he has been just brilliant over the years at times - but Dan Fouts is one of my all time QB idols. He will always be THE Chargers main man under center imo....
I too had a liking for the Chargers as I dated a woman living in San Diego. I saw them playing in the Houston Astrodome in 1987 against the Oilers and two of my favourite QBs were playing - Fouts and Warren Moon.

I hear you. It's the same as me being a little aggrieved at the (admittedly great) QB's that have sailed past Marino in the passing charts. Totally different game now - if you put Marino under center in a half competent modern NFL side, his numbers would have been stratospheric.

Steelers are getting our annual reminder of how terrible we are without Roethlisberger.
