I'll be going to the International Series game this weekend Steelers @ Vikings in London. Bills follower but neutral mostly, so supporting the home team at this one. Thank god Patriots aren't here again, Tom Brady fans everywhere last year.

Anything I should expect from the game? Steelers thrashing?


Hey, you guys can have the Patriots. America does not want them.

It actually seems like a terribe game to give Great Britian. Neither team is good, nor represents the best the sport has to offer. Pretty sure the steelers will not score much.

The Vikings quarterback is not too great to begin with but he seems like he might be out on an rib injury. If you get backup Matt Cassel you might see a lot of interceptions thrown by him as that is what he became known for last year in Kansas City as a Chief.

Still should be fun it is two teams that rarely face each other so their is a lot of unknowns for both teams. Should be fun to attend though.

San Francisco should bounce back verses the poorly playing Rams. Still the Rams usually play well in divisional games.

Tampa Bay's 3 year quarterback Josh Freeman has been benched in place of some new guy.

Eli Manning has been horrible so far.

No team has played worse than the Jags.

I hope Houston wins, but they are the only team above .500 that has a negative net points differintial at -12.

Terrelle Pryor, the Raiders starting athletic QB got a concussion against the Broncos and might not play. Not sure if  Matt tFlynn can beat a struggling Redskins team?

Philadelphia has one of the worst defenses in the league the last 3 or 4 years while the Broncos run the highest scoring offense so far.

Atlanta seems to be the first tough team for a struggling, yet winning Patriots team.

I hope Miami can prove they are a legit good team, that will be hard as the Saints offense has been huge.

Finished my picks.

All the AFC West teams have home field advantage over the NFC North. I think that wwill mean a lot for most of these games. Not so secretly hoping the Chiefs lose. Fuck da Chiefs.

Hard to blame the NFL for this one.  Both teams were thought to be better than they are.  Both are long-time franchises and both have established stars.

On the positive side, they should be evenly matched, so it might actually be a good game.  A blow out would surprise me.

The best reason for anyone to attend this game, however, is the chance to see Adrian Peterson.  He might very well end up being one of the best running backs in the history of the game, so that would be something to brag about later.

Whoa.

Whoa whoa.

Am I misreading this, or are you actually picking the Raiders to win a game against someone who isn't Jacksonville?

1. The Rams are good at home, but I doubt that Jim Harbaugh wants to lose three times in a row.

You're overlooking the obvious solution: TIE.

God that was terrible last year.
