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 | :28:50. | :28:52. | |
of Thursday Night's Football and preview week | :28:53. | :28:55. | |
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 | :47:30. | :47:36. | |

Minnesota Vikings beat at last, now five and one. The only old left in | :48:21. | :48:33. | |
