Seven weeks in now and the regular season has given us thrills

:00:33.:00:38.

and spills in what is proving to be an unpredictable season.

:00:39.:00:42.

Teams across the eight divisions are fighting it out for that crucial

:00:43.:00:45.

play-off spot that will take them into the post season,

:00:46.:00:47.

Talking of Super Bowl glory, joining me is our very

:00:48.:00:51.

own British-born Super Bowl winner Osi Umenyiora and former NFL

:00:52.:00:54.

We start our highlights with two teams yet to win a Super Bowl.

:00:55.:01:01.

The high powered offense of Atlanta Falcons,

:01:02.:01:03.

led by Matt Ryan, has Atlanta in full control of the NFC South.

:01:04.:01:06.

Their oponents San Diego sit at the bottom of the AFC West.

:01:07.:01:09.

Led by big passing quarterback Phillip Rivers, San Diego

:01:10.:01:12.

have been the masters of their own downfall this season.

:01:13.:01:16.

Last week however they beat Super Bowl 50 winners Denver to keep

:01:17.:01:19.

The disturbed rhythms of the season. The Falcons playing well but beaten

:01:20.:01:40.

by Seattle Seahawks last week. Now time for something to settle the

:01:41.:01:45.

stomach. A home game against the San Diego Chargers. Not so much on the

:01:46.:01:53.

charge is bent under the weight, the bottom team in their division. The

:01:54.:01:59.

Chargers would taint the Denver Broncos in week six. -- ten.

:02:00.:02:16.

At the three. Philip Rivers. It is Gordon. Touchdown, Chargers. Seventh

:02:17.:02:27.

touchdown run of the season for one of the leaders in the NFL.

:02:28.:02:36.

Atlanta went on at charge to get the home team on the board.

:02:37.:02:44.

Philip Rivers being rushed. Intercepted. Jones inside the 20.

:02:45.:02:56.

Down at the 10-yard line. Philip Rivers trying to dump it

:02:57.:03:03.

down. A tonne of speed right here. In open space now. They're trying to

:03:04.:03:10.

establish this culture in Atlanta of being aggressive in all three

:03:11.:03:15.

phases. That tight bond between the team.

:03:16.:03:22.

After the interception Atlanta went three and out. San Diego kicked a

:03:23.:03:32.

field goal of their own. Josh Lambo giving them a lead of 10-6.

:03:33.:03:40.

Ryan steps back and three receivers to the right. Julio Jones, he has

:03:41.:03:55.

got it. Down at the 15-yard line. 3rd down. And the endzone!

:03:56.:04:03.

Touchdown! What to throw by Matt Ryan.

:04:04.:04:10.

Looking for the defense to come up with a big play. Heads for the

:04:11.:04:22.

endzone and touchdown! They've got to get to that 35-yard line. Philip

:04:23.:04:31.

Rivers being rushed. The ball knocked loose. Picked up by

:04:32.:04:40.

Claiborne for touchdown. Some twisting inside. Vic police

:04:41.:04:50.

leak has great speed around the edge. He's going to try to swap the

:04:51.:04:58.

ball. He went for a tackle on Philip Rivers.

:04:59.:05:09.

Gordon for the goal and he is in. Touchdown, San Diego. Melvin Gordon

:05:10.:05:15.

with his second touchdown of the game.

:05:16.:05:21.

The only points in the third quarter came off the foot of Josh Lambo on

:05:22.:05:25.

the 37 yard attempt. But Atlanta kept the score ticking over with a

:05:26.:05:31.

ten point lead on their next possession.

:05:32.:05:36.

Philip Rivers has now passed for 317 yards. Rivers froze. Touchdown,

:05:37.:05:44.

Melvin Gordon, with his third touchdown of the game.

:05:45.:06:01.

Intercepted! Perry man, the man who has been injured throughout the

:06:02.:06:05.

game, he comes up with the interception. Antonio Gates, the 1st

:06:06.:06:18.

down. You go further you trust the most.

:06:19.:06:21.

Eight plays later and Josh Lambo kicked his third career goal of the

:06:22.:06:26.

day from 33 yards to send the game into overtime, tied at 30-30.

:06:27.:06:36.

Julio Jones wide right. The rest of the team tied. The vaunted freedom

:06:37.:06:47.

at right back. -- Devonta Freeman. The Chargers stop the Falcons.

:06:48.:06:56.

At the 43-yard line. Look at Denzel Perryman finding his way through to

:06:57.:07:01.

get into the backfield. He has got to be the most banged up player on

:07:02.:07:06.

the team and yet he has made a couple of huge plays in this game,

:07:07.:07:12.

and interception and that great stop. 42 yard field goal. Josh

:07:13.:07:20.

Lambo. And it is good. The San Diego Chargers win it in overtime. I have

:07:21.:07:28.

been saying forever, we just play, it does not matter what the score

:07:29.:07:33.

is, how much time is left, we just play. That is what we talk about at

:07:34.:07:39.

half-time, just go one play at time. Everyone has got to believe winning

:07:40.:07:48.

game. -- we're winning this game. Do you like his mentality? Absolutely,

:07:49.:07:55.

that is a winning mentality. This team has played too many close

:07:56.:07:59.

games. It is showed a lot of strength and stomach and heart. They

:08:00.:08:04.

go out and keep it close, the hallmark of a good team. There are

:08:05.:08:14.

the team to watch, arguably, because of these close games. But they do

:08:15.:08:19.

have a winning mentality. The scoreline is starting to show that

:08:20.:08:24.

now. They have a chance but just need to find a way to close these

:08:25.:08:33.

games out. They have players who can find the endzone. And that is what

:08:34.:08:39.

you need. And Philip Rivers, they have a quarterback in him who can be

:08:40.:08:45.

a very angry man, but at the same time a very talented man. Extremely

:08:46.:08:51.

talented quarterback. He is a bit overly emotional. But a very

:08:52.:08:57.

talented quarterback. Getting it done for San Diego. Let's talk about

:08:58.:09:04.

Joey Bosa, a great game for the Chargers, he was the third pick

:09:05.:09:08.

overall in the draft. Some contractual disputes earlier in the

:09:09.:09:11.

season. He is now playing and in preseason you were with him. I spent

:09:12.:09:17.

some time with him and I said about him that this will be an exceptional

:09:18.:09:20.

football player. Excellent movement skills, all the things you would

:09:21.:09:26.

want. Speed, technique and he listens. He is willing to sit down

:09:27.:09:31.

and listen. Take some of the advice I gave him and he is using that out

:09:32.:09:37.

on the field. The last thing he needed was a contractual dispute. It

:09:38.:09:41.

may have been something to do with his agent, and he was kept out of

:09:42.:09:47.

it. When you work with him, what are you doing? I show him hand movements

:09:48.:09:52.

because a lot of guys coming out of college think they are just going to

:09:53.:09:55.

be able to run around people. It does not work like that. I'm showing

:09:56.:10:00.

him how to use his hands comic used technique and get around offensive

:10:01.:10:04.

tackles. You see him doing it out there on the field. A big future. No

:10:05.:10:11.

doubt. And the Falcons, where they affected by that defeat against

:10:12.:10:16.

Seattle, there was still all the controversy over whether Julio Jones

:10:17.:10:22.

had the pass interference. It was an emotional game and to lose like

:10:23.:10:26.

that, when you think it is not your fault, it takes a bit out of you.

:10:27.:10:33.

The mark of a good team, these close games. But I do not think that

:10:34.:10:39.

carried over, good teams sometimes lose close games.

:10:40.:10:41.

So lets now take a look at our first round-up of week

:10:42.:10:44.

We start with Houston at Denver. The return of Gary Kubiak. Does want a

:10:45.:11:04.

book energised the game. -- Booker energised the game. The Texans are

:11:05.:11:15.

now four and three. Do not criticise Brock 's foreigner yet, we will do

:11:16.:11:21.

that in at! The chance capitalised in four interceptions. Zigzagging

:11:22.:11:32.

across in this play before going towards the endzone.

:11:33.:11:44.

The Rams now three and four. A great game between the Redskins and the

:11:45.:11:45.

Lions. This 18 yard touchdown pass. Then Minnesota against Philadelphia.

:11:46.:12:02.

Sam Bradford returning to Philadelphia for the first time

:12:03.:12:07.

since his trade to the Vikings. Did not have a great day. The first play

:12:08.:12:17.

from Josh Huff, for Philadelphia, touchdown and the Eagles are back

:12:18.:12:23.

track. And Minnesota lose their unbeaten record. So no team unbeaten

:12:24.:12:28.

now. It is a tough league. It is hard to stay up. People know what

:12:29.:12:34.

you do not do well and they attack it. Minnesota were not helped by Sam

:12:35.:12:39.

Bradford returning to Philadelphia and the defense knowing how Bradford

:12:40.:12:44.

works. There were not helped by the terrible offensive line. Still out

:12:45.:12:52.

there on their last legs trying to play the left tackle. And they just

:12:53.:12:57.

got abused. Bradford could have done nothing with that offensive line. I

:12:58.:13:04.

agree it was not that good. But they know Sam Bradford, they practised

:13:05.:13:10.

against day. That is what you think. That is what I think. As the

:13:11.:13:15.

defensive lineman, a quarterback is going to be where he is. It does not

:13:16.:13:22.

matter whether I know him or not, I know where the quarterback is going

:13:23.:13:25.

to be. But you know his tendencies, where he is probably going to be.

:13:26.:13:31.

All quarterbacks are right in the same spot. All you have to do is get

:13:32.:13:37.

to them. As a defender we love the fact that we know what they're

:13:38.:13:45.

thinking. For defensive line, and Minnesota got beaten by being

:13:46.:13:47.

overpowered in the defensive line, that would not have made a

:13:48.:13:52.

difference. Did Brock Osweiler make a difference, or is he struggling?

:13:53.:13:57.

They really knew what they were dealing with with Brock Osweiler.

:13:58.:14:02.

They knew everything he did. And the TB players, they know what he can do

:14:03.:14:08.

well. He got hammered the moment he stepped on the field. By the Denver

:14:09.:14:12.

fans as well as the players. Will it have affected him but a is a little

:14:13.:14:22.

baby! But going back to your point, in that game, 100%. The DBAs are the

:14:23.:14:28.

ones who know the quarterback's tendencies. NFC East, so brilliantly

:14:29.:14:35.

competitive after it was for last season, you have played Dallas, you

:14:36.:14:41.

have paid for the Giants, would you say there is hatred between all four

:14:42.:14:43.

teams? You hate whoever you are playing

:14:44.:14:53.

against in that division. It has so much history and it is so physical.

:14:54.:14:59.

One of the other three as a Giant, you would dislike? Philadelphia fans

:15:00.:15:07.

are the worst fans in history. We would be on the bus and they would

:15:08.:15:12.

be throwing batteries, a little boy showed me a finger I did not want to

:15:13.:15:17.

see and he was only five years old. There was a mess playing against

:15:18.:15:25.

them but as far as rivalries, each game, Washington, Philadelphia,

:15:26.:15:27.

Giants, all big rivalries. It is Philadelphia against Dallas this

:15:28.:15:29.

weekend. Selected by Jason and

:15:30.:15:32.

Osi as a Super Bowl contender, the Russell Wilson

:15:33.:15:34.

led Seattle Seahawks They headed to Arizona who went

:15:35.:15:36.

into the game off the back of a two In a tight defensive battle it was

:15:37.:15:50.

close to half time before the scoring opened with a field goal for

:15:51.:15:55.

Arizona. Seattle tied the game with less than five minutes to play when

:15:56.:16:02.

this was converted and the game was destined for overtime. Both teams

:16:03.:16:06.

needed to possess the football in the extra period and Arizona scored

:16:07.:16:11.

with a field goal but Seattle tied the game with a 36 yard attempt. All

:16:12.:16:17.

square, next Gore wins, Arizona have the ball. This is The Drive. Play

:16:18.:16:32.

action. Deep downfield. Caught in the 50-yard line. He laid the first

:16:33.:16:44.

catch of his career in regulation. 26 yard game. Michael Floyd, one in

:16:45.:16:52.

the post route. Drew Richard Sherman out of that area. One of those

:16:53.:17:00.

throws. Three yard game for David Johnson to the 45-yard line. You can

:17:01.:17:07.

only imagine how exhausted the Seattle defense has to be. They have

:17:08.:17:12.

been out there a lifetime in this game and have not folded yet. Earl

:17:13.:17:19.

Thomas, Richard Sherman, some of these guys have a knack. Palmyra.

:17:20.:17:27.

Great protection, fires. Incomplete, intended for Fitzgerald. Everyone

:17:28.:17:38.

wants a flag. 3rd down. Two star is going at it right there. Little push

:17:39.:17:47.

by Larry Fitzgerald. Five receivers, a bunch to the left three, a pair to

:17:48.:17:56.

the right. Palmyra coming then. Caught in the 31-yard line. Off he

:17:57.:18:06.

goes. Carson Palmer, they almost got to him. Nelson takes the ball. 40

:18:07.:18:16.

yards. He is going to run the end cut. Richard Sherman loses his

:18:17.:18:19.

footing and cannot come back to make the tackle. JJ Belson has made some

:18:20.:18:26.

big plays in this game, stepping up, John Brown unable to go. The play

:18:27.:18:34.

Clark was at one. One period of time to get down there -- clock. How long

:18:35.:18:45.

did he talk with us about what has happened to his field goal teams?

:18:46.:18:55.

All those sorts of things. Now you line up on a 1st goal. John. All

:18:56.:19:06.

he has to do is hold onto the ball. He holds on all the way to get to

:19:07.:19:12.

the end zone. He is out just before he gets to the goal-line. Not the

:19:13.:19:20.

pylon off it's mirroring. Earl Thomas came out of nowhere to push

:19:21.:19:24.

them out of bounds. That is interesting. They come right up to

:19:25.:19:31.

the line. They give it to Johnson. And he cannot get in, Bobby Weitzner

:19:32.:19:38.

stops at the half yard line. One more look. You cannot challenge --

:19:39.:19:53.

Bobby Wagner. Offense, 5-yard penalty. He has a new snapper and a

:19:54.:20:05.

new holder. Aaron Bure is snapping. These are different guys. There is

:20:06.:20:10.

Bobby Wagner ride in the middle. He will be trying to jump over the top.

:20:11.:20:15.

They need to make some contact with him. Hates the upright! It is no

:20:16.:20:31.

good. How in the world? That is the reason. It has been a nightmare. It

:20:32.:20:42.

has been a nightmare for this team. Here comes Bobby Wagner right over

:20:43.:20:46.

the top and some pressure on the side, was that Richard Sherman

:20:47.:20:52.

coming around the edge? He thinks he has won the game. Oh! Now the ball

:20:53.:21:04.

is at the 20-yard line. I just got it. Christian Michael picks up one,

:21:05.:21:11.

Arizona does not have a time-out. My understanding of the rule is if you

:21:12.:21:15.

jump over and make contact, if you jump cleanly, you are fine, my

:21:16.:21:20.

understanding is clearly wrong. He puts his arm up, makes contact, I do

:21:21.:21:31.

not know. 2nd 9, catch made at the 26 hardline. Baldwin. Now you have a

:21:32.:21:37.

3rd down, you can take it down to the two minute warning. Down the

:21:38.:21:42.

line. If they stop him here, you will get the ball back. Interesting

:21:43.:21:56.

play called here. Wilson. Sideline and that is caught. Covered by

:21:57.:22:04.

Marcus Cooper. Third and fourth, gutsy call. They brought all the

:22:05.:22:13.

pressure. This offensive line has been tough, perfectly picked up that

:22:14.:22:26.

time. 31 yard gain. My call. He will get them close to field goal range.

:22:27.:22:35.

147. Gained a six. 2nd down and four. And they give it to Collins.

:22:36.:22:49.

It is a yard, maybe a yard and a half, right now you are looking

:22:50.:22:54.

around a 55 yard field goal attempt. At the 36. The clock is running

:22:55.:23:02.

down, one minute left in overtime. Wilson fires it to the outside.

:23:03.:23:09.

Baldwin stays inbounds and Baldwin takes the ball inside the 10. Broke

:23:10.:23:17.

away from Matthew. And now you have a 1st goal. How it figures to come

:23:18.:23:27.

in at any moment. Opening-night disaster. Through the middle goes

:23:28.:23:39.

Christian Michael. This would be about as bad a loss as a team could

:23:40.:23:45.

suffer. If the team comes in to try and win the game, 28 yard attempt.

:23:46.:23:55.

John Ryan to hold. He misses it. That is impossible. That is

:23:56.:24:01.

impossible. There is something inside his brain about this

:24:02.:24:11.

building. Oh my goodness graces. You know what, maybe this is justice for

:24:12.:24:16.

all concerned. If a game deserves to wind up, Ryan pushes it down, he

:24:17.:24:25.

closes it. We watch this. Every cake that he has made tonight, he has

:24:26.:24:31.

gone up and fooled around with the turf and felt uncomfortable. I do

:24:32.:24:36.

not know if he stuck his foot on the ground, he judged that a little bit.

:24:37.:24:41.

Maybe the happiest guy in the building. Oh my goodness. What do

:24:42.:24:54.

you tell him? He is a professional, this is not high school. You get

:24:55.:24:59.

paid to make it. What an incredible game. They played to a 6-6 tie. I

:25:00.:25:10.

wanted to check out Bobby Wagner. Look at this incredible athletic

:25:11.:25:15.

play. I remember specifically been able to do things like this. Then I

:25:16.:25:21.

woke up. Mark Chapman and Jason Bell will show was a recreation. Come

:25:22.:25:26.

down here. Come and show us how this is done. I do not see why have to be

:25:27.:25:31.

involved. You are the former players. You kind of looked like a

:25:32.:25:38.

player. I will be the kicker. You want me to hold the ball. That is

:25:39.:25:44.

very received the snap. U2 are going to play what part in this? You are

:25:45.:25:50.

at the center. I am one of the big uglies. You will slap the ball to

:25:51.:25:54.

Mark and I will have to anticipate the snap count because I have seen

:25:55.:25:58.

it on film always. Clear him without touching and that is a penalty. You

:25:59.:26:04.

will do the jump. Reemphasise, when you are doing that in the role of

:26:05.:26:10.

Bobby Wagner, you are watching how he moves to anticipate that he is

:26:11.:26:15.

about to stab the ball? All week we have seen something with the long

:26:16.:26:19.

snapper that gives us this key. You're going to snap the ball to me.

:26:20.:26:26.

He is going to jump over you. I am a little scared. You do not have a

:26:27.:26:32.

helmet on. You take your position. Do not mess all this up. I cannot

:26:33.:26:37.

promise that. I have a tight jacket on. I cannot promise anything. Can

:26:38.:26:42.

you make sure I can catch this? He will snap it, you will watch him and

:26:43.:26:49.

jump over him? Yes. I am so scared. This is so wrong. Oh! That is my

:26:50.:27:04.

guy. He got it. I was not expecting you to actually divert me. Mark, I

:27:05.:27:11.

do this for a living! On a serious point, I know you have not done that

:27:12.:27:15.

for a while, but the jumping over, how much of the practising the jump

:27:16.:27:20.

and getting all of that will they be working on during the week

:27:21.:27:25.

Others-macro we left twice a week, but you better have that skill down

:27:26.:27:30.

before you can do that. You have to get your guy who has a great

:27:31.:27:34.

vertical leap and he is the guy who does it. What you were talking about

:27:35.:27:40.

in that one play, apart from fear on my behalf, you are talking about the

:27:41.:27:44.

physicality of the actual block and doing it. The finest margins of

:27:45.:27:49.

anticipation and the preparation and the chess match that is a game of

:27:50.:27:54.

NFL. That was something they must have worked on a whole bunch of

:27:55.:27:59.

times, looking for little tics, I used to do that to anticipate the

:28:00.:28:04.

snap count. Looking to see any detail that would give me that edge

:28:05.:28:08.

and that is what the Seattle Seahawks had. We can look at it from

:28:09.:28:15.

all sorts of different plays, does every team have different little

:28:16.:28:18.

things that are unique to them on the snap count?

:28:19.:28:26.

You have seen enough film at this stage in the season to know that it

:28:27.:28:34.

is real. It is something that they had seen. We can breathe a sigh of

:28:35.:28:42.

relief. Thanks very much. The insurance people are believed! --

:28:43.:28:48.

relieved. A quick reminder that

:28:49.:28:49.

you can get another dose of We will bring you highlights

eight, which includes the Wembley game between

:28:56.:28:57.

Washington and Cincinnati. Always keen to learn

:28:58.:28:59.

new skills, Osi took a trip to West Ham to learn

:29:00.:29:01.

the art of goalkeeping. How long would it take to teach me

:29:02.:29:13.

how to be a good goalkeeper? Penalty shoot out now. I'm not scared.

:29:14.:29:25.

Be careful. I could not even see it! Might level of respect for the

:29:26.:29:31.

goalkeeper went up, that is ridiculous.

:29:32.:29:32.

Buffalo have been on a roll since firing their offensive

:29:33.:29:35.

Four straight wins has seen Rex Ryan's Bills cement second

:29:36.:29:38.

They faced the Miami Dolphins who badly need

:29:39.:29:42.

another win to keep in touch with their divisional rivals

:29:43.:29:44.

after dispatching Super Bowl contenders Pittsburgh

:29:45.:29:45.

Miami Dolphins, makers of a legend and perhaps bound by it. Undefeated

:29:46.:30:06.

in 1972 season, they have not been back to Super Bowl since the 1984

:30:07.:30:11.

season but they're now giving it a shot. Jay Ajayi, a 200 yard game

:30:12.:30:16.

last week, he is on fire. The Buffalo Bills, they went to four

:30:17.:30:20.

straight Super Bowl spot they had not been back since Super Bowl XX

:30:21.:30:31.

eight. Speed option right. Into the

:30:32.:30:41.

endzone, he fumbles but touchdown, Buffalo! You could see this coming

:30:42.:30:48.

the entire way. Formation to the left, you knew it would be some kind

:30:49.:30:52.

of quarterback run. That is why they have been so good in the red zone

:30:53.:30:56.

the season, the threat that Taylor brings to this offense.

:30:57.:31:06.

First inside the 30, now the 25. Sack Brown makes the tackle. You do

:31:07.:31:13.

not see the debt on film but you can see that in person. Mike Pouncey

:31:14.:31:21.

makes the key block. Jay Ajayi playing today with great vision.

:31:22.:31:28.

Seven plays later and Andrew Franks kicked a 33 yard field goal to cut

:31:29.:31:32.

the lead to four points for buffaloes heading into half-time.

:31:33.:31:42.

This is the number one rush offense in the league against the number 31

:31:43.:31:47.

rush defense in the league. It has been bizarre here this afternoon. He

:31:48.:31:58.

walks into the endzone, touchdown, Buffalo! 67 yards.

:31:59.:32:15.

Goodman so fast on the outside. The eight run of the drive, Jay Ajayi to

:32:16.:32:25.

the endzone. Touchdown, Dolphins! It is a four yard run for Jay Ajayi.

:32:26.:32:34.

His fifth touchdown of the year. 2nd down, he will take it again. He

:32:35.:32:42.

stumbles into the open field. One man to beat and he is inside Buffalo

:32:43.:32:48.

territory. Ronald Darby makes the tackle. Jay Ajayi makes two

:32:49.:32:54.

defenders miss. Then he breaks it open. What a huge played by Jay

:32:55.:33:01.

Ajayi in the offensive line. The 28-yard line. Jay Ajayi Bacchin.

:33:02.:33:09.

Over 200 yards again. -- back in. Inside the 15. Cory Grasse takes him

:33:10.:33:26.

down. They give it up to Williams. Trying to carry it into the endzone.

:33:27.:33:34.

Touchdown, Dolphins! Taylor today is the leading rusher for the Bills.

:33:35.:33:48.

Goodwin, can he complete? Broken up. It will be forced down. Officially

:33:49.:33:58.

3rd down and six. Jay Ajayi in the battlefield, to receivers to the

:33:59.:34:09.

left. -- in the backfield. Into the open field! Touchdown, Dolphins!

:34:10.:34:26.

66 yard smile for Ryan. A good effort from Jay Ajayi, picking up

:34:27.:34:34.

the blitz. He steps up. Good block, and it is all about the adjustment.

:34:35.:34:38.

Fighting for the ball. Then running for a touchdown. Border Force

:34:39.:34:51.

quarter for the Miami Dolphins. 12 penalties for the Dolphins including

:34:52.:34:54.

three in this drive. -- what a fourth quarter.

:34:55.:35:02.

Bush loses the football. Touchdown, Buffalo. Bush lost the football,

:35:03.:35:16.

take a look. A good effort from him. He goes down as the ball comes

:35:17.:35:22.

across. That might be a matter of

:35:23.:35:25.

millimetres whether that is a touchdown or not. It will be

:35:26.:35:29.

interesting, it looks like millimetres. Is there enough to

:35:30.:35:34.

overturn this call? The ruling stands, touchdown.

:35:35.:35:43.

It stands, it is not confirmed. Not enough evidence to overturn it. Now

:35:44.:35:49.

the 2-point conversion. 14 seconds to play.

:35:50.:35:58.

Play in motion. Taylor looking for Bush. It is the three points game.

:35:59.:36:10.

14 seconds to play. Buffalo still have a chance to tie the game.

:36:11.:36:24.

Handled easily by the Miami Dolphins and Jarvis Landry. The Bills have no

:36:25.:36:32.

time-outs so Dolphins can just take it easy. Dolphins walk away with the

:36:33.:36:38.

28 - 25 victory over the Buffalo Bills. Jay Ajayi with back-to-back

:36:39.:36:46.

200 yard game. He is the fourth player in NFL history to accomplish

:36:47.:36:52.

that feat. Joining OJ Simpson and Ricky Williams.

:36:53.:36:59.

And joining us now from Miami is the NFL current leading running back and

:37:00.:37:03.

fellow Brit Jay Ajayi. Thank you for talking to us. It has been a special

:37:04.:37:10.

couple of weeks for you. It has been going pretty good these past couple

:37:11.:37:14.

of weeks. I cannot complain. What do you think has changed the last

:37:15.:37:19.

couple of weeks, two may be the start of the season, what has

:37:20.:37:27.

changed to you? Personally I think I feel very confident down the field

:37:28.:37:31.

and it has been great as well having the line all together back starting

:37:32.:37:37.

up there. Those guys have been doing a great job of being physical

:37:38.:37:41.

upfront. The receivers have been doing a great job outside, blocking,

:37:42.:37:47.

it is just then been about running hard and running downhill and making

:37:48.:37:53.

people miss and trying to get the endzone. How much from a British

:37:54.:37:58.

perspective, have you paid attention to NFL records, you have become only

:37:59.:38:02.

the fourth running back to go over 200 yards in back-to-back games

:38:03.:38:07.

alongside Ricky Williams and Earl Campbell and OJ Simpson. How much do

:38:08.:38:14.

you pay attention to those records? I think it is the crazy thing to

:38:15.:38:20.

have and to do, to be mentioned alongside those guys who are Hall of

:38:21.:38:28.

Fame players. Some of the great players and the running back

:38:29.:38:31.

position. To be able to be around those names, it is humbling and I

:38:32.:38:37.

just want to keep working and keep building on the performances like

:38:38.:38:41.

that. And just continue to see where my career can go. You carry the ball

:38:42.:38:47.

a lot for your team. What have you done to get you ready for that

:38:48.:38:56.

workload? I work hard and offseason I wanted to prepare myself for this

:38:57.:39:02.

opportunity. We knew the position would be open. So I just trained

:39:03.:39:08.

really hard. I did a lot of stuff conditioning, just try to make sure

:39:09.:39:12.

my mind was right and that I would be able to take on this role and be

:39:13.:39:19.

ready when the opportunity itself. Now I'm just taking it week by week

:39:20.:39:24.

and just trying to build of each performance. What is it like being a

:39:25.:39:31.

Brit in an American sport? It is cool, man. I definitely feel like I

:39:32.:39:39.

am unique and my background story is very unique and interesting. I just

:39:40.:39:47.

want to keep the burden of this story, it is crazy to believe I'm

:39:48.:39:51.

here right now at this point and I just want to keep building permit. I

:39:52.:39:57.

enjoy seeing all the support from the UK fans and all my family back

:39:58.:40:06.

over there. It is great getting texts from those guys. I just want

:40:07.:40:11.

to keep it up. We help you keep it up as well and keep flying the flag

:40:12.:40:15.

for the UK. Congratulations on the past couple of weeks and hopefully

:40:16.:40:18.

we will talk again before the end of the season. Thank you for having me.

:40:19.:40:27.

Time for a final round up now think seven.

:40:28.:40:32.

Still no Ben Roethlisberger for the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England

:40:33.:40:35.

Patriots were just too much for them. Tom Brady completing 19 of 26

:40:36.:40:46.

passes, 222 yards including one to rob. The Patriots now six and one,

:40:47.:40:52.

two games clear in the AFC East. The new York Jets 124-16 against

:40:53.:40:56.

Baltimore but lost their quarterback Geno Smith with an injured right

:40:57.:41:01.

knee after taking that sack. Ryan Fitzpatrick, not very happy, he will

:41:02.:41:07.

face and lead New York Jets to their win. 24 16. Oakland beat troubled

:41:08.:41:19.

Jacksonville 33-16. Murray scoring twice on his return from injury.

:41:20.:41:24.

Giving Jack Del Rio victory against his former team. This is one of the

:41:25.:41:28.

plays of the whole weekend, as Marquette King scrambled for a 1st

:41:29.:41:35.

down from about that. Oakland are now four and oh on the road. And

:41:36.:41:45.

Kansas City still very much in it in the AFC West. A fascinating

:41:46.:41:50.

division. They beat New Orleans 27-21. Spencer Ware running for 77

:41:51.:41:55.

yards to go with his 46 yard touchdown reception. Alex Smith

:41:56.:41:58.

throwing two touchdown passes as well. In what was another efficient

:41:59.:42:04.

outing for him. Daniel Sorensen returning that 48 yard interception

:42:05.:42:13.

for another touchdown. Looking at the standings now at the

:42:14.:42:14.

end of weeks seven. Let's talk about the New York Jets

:42:15.:43:07.

and Ryan Fitzpatrick. Geno Smith getting injured. Ryan Fitzpatrick

:43:08.:43:11.

did well, he had a difficult season. This was his post-match interview

:43:12.:43:17.

afterwards. He has a go at everyone! It is just tough. The biggest thing

:43:18.:43:21.

in this game in order to last is to have belief in yourself. When the

:43:22.:43:26.

owner stops believing in you and GM and coaches stop believing in you,

:43:27.:43:31.

sometimes all you have yourself. That is something I had to deal with

:43:32.:43:36.

before and I am dealing with it now. I just do my best to prepare and be

:43:37.:43:41.

the best quarterback I can be. People give up on you and that stuff

:43:42.:43:47.

is not necessary the easiest in the world. Something you try to deal

:43:48.:43:53.

with as mature as you can. And move on.

:43:54.:43:59.

I realise it may have been a difficult start for him. Can you go

:44:00.:44:09.

and do that as a team leader? Absolutely not. Even if that is

:44:10.:44:14.

true, you do not say that to the media. You buy the guy in the locker

:44:15.:44:19.

room, the quarterback, you do not do that. It is ridiculous. I always

:44:20.:44:24.

liked him as an individual but he is acting like they did not have a good

:44:25.:44:29.

reason to put him on the bench. He was a turnover machine. He performed

:44:30.:44:33.

badly and they put him on the bench and now he is semi-do not believe in

:44:34.:44:36.

him! Their coach said he does not mind

:44:37.:45:00.

him saying it, as long as he cuts out all the turnovers he has caused

:45:01.:45:03.

so far. Nobody cares as long as you produce. If you're not out there,

:45:04.:45:06.

you do not complain. You go out and get it done. Do you think he will be

:45:07.:45:08.

leaving that franchise? For sure. Let us look at the hot pics. Other

:45:09.:45:11.

member of the team suggested we needed new photographs. These are

:45:12.:45:14.

staying for the whole of the season. This is what they had as their heart

:45:15.:45:17.

five before this week and now after this week, it has changed, not very

:45:18.:45:20.

much. I think Jason has switched Dallas and Seattle but everything

:45:21.:45:24.

else is the same. You are convinced that the Patriots are ahead of

:45:25.:45:32.

everyone. Nobody is close. Who is close? Minnesota! Come on! Did you

:45:33.:45:36.

see their performance? When did you see them perform like that?

:45:37.:45:40.

Minnesota with the defense, they can figure it out then they will get it

:45:41.:45:47.

done. When it happens, it happens? You must be convinced by the

:45:48.:45:51.

Patriots? I am, but I am saying the Vikings can beat that team. Hold on!

:45:52.:45:58.

The Vikings can beat who? I think so. Why do you think that? I think

:45:59.:46:05.

that you have got to win three of the phases. And I do not think that

:46:06.:46:11.

New England's special teams are good enough to be that impactful during

:46:12.:46:20.

the game. If you look at the statistics? They have had three

:46:21.:46:28.

different quarterbacks. You know how he beat them, pressure from the de

:46:29.:46:32.

line up the middle. That is what Minnesota doors. New England

:46:33.:46:38.

Patriots will win the Super Bowl this year. You are same out right

:46:39.:46:43.

now? Calling it right now. The other thing with them and I am not on his

:46:44.:46:48.

side, is that they have not conceded more than 20 points to any team this

:46:49.:46:54.

season. I did not say it would be a high-scoring game, I am saying I

:46:55.:46:58.

think they can win this game. Let us look at some of the social media. I

:46:59.:47:06.

like the tweet about Aaron Rodgers suggesting that he is wearing the

:47:07.:47:11.

same cardigan that we saw in the big Lebowski. I like that cardigan!

:47:12.:47:18.

Aside from Aaron Rodgers wearing that, there is plenty of other

:47:19.:47:24.

football stars, Harry Kane was there and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was

:47:25.:47:28.

there, Calum Chambers is in there as well and may more will be there this

:47:29.:47:29.

week. One last reminder... One last reminder the NFL Show

Minnesota Vikings beat at last, now five and one. The only old left in
