The BBC have secured free-to-air live coverage of Monday Night Football this season and open with a double-header on September 10, with Cincinnati at Baltimore followed by Oakland home to San Diego.

While on a tour in London to promote the NFL International Series, which continues at Wembley Stadium on October 28, New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft expressed his desire to see an NFL franchise in London within the next 10 years.

Yes, but Rugby League's a dying game. Just read the majority of posts on TRL.

Watched the giants-cowboys game tonight. Solid from the cowboys, giants receivers really let manning down by not holding onto the football

I just cant sit there for around 3 hours watching a game that plays for 60 minutes

but you and I weve been through that and this is not our fate.

Texans all the way!

Now then, it's a race between Sandie....and Fairburn....and the little man is in........yeees he's in.

I, just like those Castleford supporters felt that the ball should have gone to David Plange but he put the bit betwen his teeth...and it was a try

Kevin Ward - best player I have ever seen

The real Mick Gledhill is what you see on here, a Bradford fan ........, but deep down knows that Bradford are just not good enough to challenge the likes of Leeds & St Helens.

Great to watch on a night shift where 3hrs of background sport is great.

With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!

Not NFL, but this seems an appropriate place for NCAA stuff:

Damn it Michigan, first you got maimed by Alabama (hardly unexpected, I admit) and now you might lose to the Air Force! Why are you doing this to me?

Always liked the Browns, mainly because of the Dawg Pound. Hate Denver!

I would be the first to point and laugh but 'we' lost to UCLA.

Weird team, UCLA. I would still have had money on your chaps beating them, though.

I thought you'd all be more worked up for Nov. 23rd? Farmageddon, and all that?

It's possible. To be honest with the whole Penn State awfulness going on - and the fact that they still have a program there this season I find obscene - it's taken me until this week to start watching college football again.

But of course the moment you start you find yourself back into it all over again.
