2019 NFL Season Thread

@BlueMerle what's the deal in the NFL with regsrds tickets and getting them for games?

Wanted to see a live game in the US for years and my son has decided he's a Texans fan (scum) so thinking of spending time over there next October and try and get a Texans and a cowboys game.

Is it hard to get tickets? When do they come out?

Early days but thinking of some ideas.
 
I can only speak for getting tickets while here in the US. I don't think it will be a problem, depending on the specific game, if you purchase early... perhaps very early.

Generally speaking, tickets go on sale before the first pre-season game. This would be the time to buy imo. They should be easy to come by at that time.

FYI, depending on the schedule, the Cowboys may only play the Texans during the pre-season... They may not play during the regular season... so pay attention and plan accordingly.

At the end of the day, if you plan early and purchase early, you should be able to get tickets to any game you wish.

All the best, if I can help feel free to PM me.

ETA: don't forget to account for the cost of parking, it can be very high depending on how close to the stadium you want to park. Or, the cost of a taxi/Uber to the stadium, they jack up the prices on game day.

Cheers :)

Wasn't thinking Texans v Cowboys I meant hope the scheduling god's are kind and one weekend see Texans, stay in Houston for a bit, go to Dallas and the next weekend see a Cowboys game before flying home.

Thats the outline of the plan anyway for now.

Generally what are you talking ticket prices cost for decent (I know decent is hard to define exactly) seats?
 
Man the Bears have stunk, they have to be seriously thinking about bailing of Trubisky now.

Bit annoyed the Bears D decided to chuck a stinker as well as I would have won another £88 if the score had been under 41.5.
 
I had a £5 accumulator on the Saints, Ravens, Chargers and Eagles to win which would have netted £168. Just my luck that the Chargers fumble away the game right at the end :rolleyes:

I won £91 on Niners -6, Jags -6.5 and Rams -4.5.

Was edge of my seat with Niners and Jags pretty much to the end :p

Had a separate bet with Rams under 55 which came in but Giants v Cards over 51 which didn't. I looked nailed on after a 31 point first half but finished on 48 points.
 
Good night's games, the Packers were brilliant, as was Cousins and the Vikings.

Surely pundits (not that it matters) will start giving Jakey B some credit, guy is really good, he isn't elite but he's a damn good starter. Great performance last night.

I don't say this often but hoping the Pats D step up and stuff the Jets, specifically the run, as I need Bell to get 7.7 points or less for me to get the win for the week :p

Rams looked good, but everyone looks good against the Falcons so wouldn't count that being telling.

Would like to see the Bengals, Skins and Dolphins play Falcons as they are all utterly woeful this season.
 
totally agree, was concerned for the rams as we had 2 possessions at the start and had just 3 points :eek:

think its going to be a battle for the 1st draft pick but my favourites at the moment are the dolphins, even though they have the easier schedule, as the other 3 at least have a stand out player on offence.

The other telling factor is the Dolphins actively want to lose whereas the others are just incompetent.

I could see the Bengals looking at a sneaky tank if they don't win the next few they may just think "**** it" and lose the rest on purpose as there are 2/3 great looking QB's this draft and Dalton is done.

Saying that Bengals have the same issue as Dolphins in that it's fine getting a good QB but when your line is so, so horrible that young QB will be abused every week you are probably going to ruin them.
