:00:00. > :00:14.It will be time for these two teams to settle it... He's going to fire

:00:15. > :00:28.towards the end zone. Off the near side. Looking down field going deep.

:00:29. > :00:34.... Unbelievable. How did he do that... . The ball's knocked out of

:00:35. > :00:37.his hands. The Denver Broncos are world champions.

:00:38. > :00:40.Good evening. Welcome to the NFL Show. The show may have moved from

:00:41. > :00:46.Saturday but these two are still firmly in place. In the show today,

:00:47. > :00:50.Jason puts the Spotlight on football management with Alan Pardew. I wish

:00:51. > :00:57.I knew how to coach NFL, I would love it. I think you could be more

:00:58. > :01:00.influential. Highlights between the Chargers and Broncos and we take a

:01:01. > :01:09.look at all the lights that burn bright and burnt out in week five of

:01:10. > :01:15.the NFL. As long as we stay unified and together, nothing can get by us.

:01:16. > :01:22.Let's go... Get this party started.

:01:23. > :01:53.Let's rock on. Easy money. With me as ever two-time Super Bowl winner,

:01:54. > :02:00.Osi Umenyiora and NFL quarterback, Jason Bell, the BBC deemed them too

:02:01. > :02:03.entertaining to be here on Saturdays - I think they might have written

:02:04. > :02:07.that. We'll bring you all the action. If you missed last week's

:02:08. > :02:10.show, you can see it on iPlayer. Enough of plugging ourselves, let's

:02:11. > :02:15.bring you some highlights from week five. The New York Giants paid a

:02:16. > :02:19.visit last Sunday to meet the Green Bay Packers. The Giants were

:02:20. > :02:22.stuttering with two losses on the trot and an off the boil offense.

:02:23. > :02:24.The Packers looked like they were starting to warm up on the other

:02:25. > :02:39.hand. It ain't going so well for us. We

:02:40. > :02:45.have got Green Bay at Green Bay. We are the Giants. We can't be victims

:02:46. > :02:51.here. History's on our side tonight. Let's show 'em what we all about.

:02:52. > :02:56.Rodgers throwing to the end zone and reaching for it and catching. Nelson

:02:57. > :03:08.for the touchdown. Here they go. 3rd for the touchdown. Here they go. 3rd

:03:09. > :03:14.6. Two flags on the play. Two flags but for the moment, Cobb is in

:03:15. > :03:23.the end zone. Eagle shift by the offense. There was also 12 men on

:03:24. > :03:29.the field. Penalties offset. Replay 3rd down.

:03:30. > :03:35.On 3rd down and 6 now, Rodgers, taking it very well. Intercepted.

:03:36. > :03:44.Deflected and Jenkins interception. Jenkins will bring it out to the 29.

:03:45. > :03:53.The flag is down on the run back. And the Giants are able to get on

:03:54. > :04:00.the score board. Rodgers and the sideline caught in to the end zone.

:04:01. > :04:04.Is he or not? Adams. Hundredder is able to knock him out. Three

:04:05. > :04:13.officials now conFer. Rodgers thinks he got into the end zone and he does

:04:14. > :04:24.-- confer. That one is able to draw its way back in.

:04:25. > :04:41.Might have sailed into the end zone. Couldn't forward in. Breaking the

:04:42. > :04:50.tackle. Third yard attempt off the foot of Brown. All the way back. And

:04:51. > :04:56.he looks to throw but nothing is happening there. Then he gets banged

:04:57. > :05:10.out of bounds into the Green Bay bench. And no problem.

:05:11. > :05:14.First down. Cobb stays inbounds. 33-yarder. Good.

:05:15. > :05:35.Give it to the fullback. Moo cow ski doing his best -- Moocowski. Third

:05:36. > :05:39.one through the upright. The Giants, can they mount something from the

:05:40. > :05:43.37-yard line? Manning. Almost picked off.

:05:44. > :05:57.Manning. Fires to the back of the end zone. Touchdown! What a grab!

:05:58. > :06:13.Wow! The Packers lead is 23-16. Two-minute warning. Rodgers slinging

:06:14. > :06:19.it to the outside. Big first down for Cobb.

:06:20. > :06:25.Incredible amount of time to throw and the ability of Rodgers to buy

:06:26. > :06:34.that time. In many ways, what is the difference in the game? Three in a

:06:35. > :06:48.row, man. Let's quickly run through the rest of the week five results:

:06:49. > :07:03.Tom Brady returned to the Patriots. Big result for Atlanta.

:07:04. > :07:11.Buffalo beat LA. The Panthers losing again. The interesting thing about

:07:12. > :07:16.Indianapolis, they were in London in week four, they didn't get a bye

:07:17. > :07:20.week, yet they go back and win which might be significant when looking at

:07:21. > :07:29.franchises going forward. Here are the standings any how.

:07:30. > :07:54.Minnesota the only team with a 100% record in the NFL. Atlanta top of

:07:55. > :07:59.NFC south. Certain people in this studio might have predicted some of

:08:00. > :08:04.this. Look, I just can't help myself, man, you know. You can't

:08:05. > :08:08.help yourself what? A lot of the things I say might sound crazy at

:08:09. > :08:16.the time but they always end up coming true. If you say enough crazy

:08:17. > :08:21.things, eventually one or two... Throwing spaghetti hoops on the

:08:22. > :08:27.wall, eventually it sticks. A lot of people will have fallen in love with

:08:28. > :08:32.Carolina last season. Cam Newton. Is there still time this season? They

:08:33. > :08:35.are not the same team, you know, defensively, they are not doing the

:08:36. > :08:40.same things. Their defense is weak. We should have a word on Minnesota,

:08:41. > :08:43.the only team unbeaten in the NFL. Does it surprise you that they're

:08:44. > :08:49.the only team unbeaten? It's a little surprising because of the

:08:50. > :08:54.injuries, but knowing Zimmer, they've gotten his personality and

:08:55. > :08:58.that's a team that overcomes. Do we start talking about them now in week

:08:59. > :09:02.six, or as we go into week six as potential Super Bowl winners? Too

:09:03. > :09:07.early for that right now. This is a fantastic job by the head coach. Who

:09:08. > :09:11.would have thought at this juncture the Minnesota Vikings would be the

:09:12. > :09:17.only undefeated team, unbelievable job by Zimmer. Let's pick out some

:09:18. > :09:26.of the highlights of week five. Osi's favourite man, Tom Brady. Good

:09:27. > :09:29.quarterback. The best. Without annoying Cleveland fans, is a game

:09:30. > :09:34.against Cleveland the best game to come back into if you haven't played

:09:35. > :09:37.this season? It is, but it's a professional football team and they

:09:38. > :09:41.have talented players, but yes, it is.

:09:42. > :09:45.That was very diplomatic. Also, if we are getting slightly technical,

:09:46. > :09:48.is it a good offense for him to come back into? I know he's amazing and

:09:49. > :09:54.everything, but you've both explained and we saw Bennett there

:09:55. > :10:00.and Gronkowski, two players that maybe the casual fan ought to pay

:10:01. > :10:04.attention to. You have a match-up nightmare in those two people, two

:10:05. > :10:12.big, fast, physical. Then what he does, because they can run and catch

:10:13. > :10:16.and also block, he sees what is going on. If you bring in

:10:17. > :10:21.Leinbachers, they are not able to match up with gran cow ski and

:10:22. > :10:26.Bennett. He goes over the top. Brady is back though. He's a good

:10:27. > :10:34.quarterback. He's back! The Steelers. From Big Ben to Sammy

:10:35. > :10:38.Coates. Legitimate number two receiver. The thing about him, he's

:10:39. > :10:42.a deep threat and Big Ben will keep going at him. Doesn't calf every

:10:43. > :10:47.ball but he'll keep giving him a chance. When you say he's a deep

:10:48. > :10:53.threat. I know NFL and American sport love stats, I like them as

:10:54. > :10:57.well. He's coveraging 22.2 yards per reception from the 21 catches.

:10:58. > :11:02.Again, for those that maybe don't know, that is a big distance for a

:11:03. > :11:08.wide person? That is a long distance. He does it consistently.

:11:09. > :11:11.Home run hitter is what he is. Everybody who catches a deep ball

:11:12. > :11:19.will be a touchdown for you. Home run. Pittsburgh are going to retire

:11:20. > :11:25.the retro jerseys. Bumble bees. Let's take a look at Elliott for the

:11:26. > :11:30.Cowboys who started the season very well. I don't wish to use this as a

:11:31. > :11:37.pun, for he's hit the ground running. He gets vertical fast. What

:11:38. > :11:41.does that mean? Growing straight through the middle, not vertical,

:11:42. > :11:45.just dancing straight up the middle. With a big old line like that, that

:11:46. > :11:50.is what you do. The offensive line has been the best in football. You

:11:51. > :11:53.put a special runner back behind the offensive line, you get exactly what

:11:54. > :12:00.is happening with this guy here. I'll be surprised if he doesn't have

:12:01. > :12:04.1700 yards this year. Do you like the Cowboys as a potential Super

:12:05. > :12:12.Bowl team? Or is that going too far? I like them with Tony at a the back.

:12:13. > :12:20.He's going to come in? Absolutely. Tony Romu. Tony Romu is a special

:12:21. > :12:24.quarterback in this league. But this has been working. It worked when he

:12:25. > :12:33.was in there. He's not in there. As soon as he gets back healthy, he's

:12:34. > :12:41.the starting quarterback. When he is back, Romu or Prescot? Romu. We are

:12:42. > :12:48.going to show you this. There isn't going to be much time to watch

:12:49. > :12:53.Miami. We kind of like to focus on the teams nearer the top with Super

:12:54. > :12:57.Bowl chances. We'll show you this. I love this. You know what is hard

:12:58. > :13:02.about the little guys like this. Only 5'6". When you are running down

:13:03. > :13:07.trying to tackle, you can't see him behind the blockers. Size doesn't

:13:08. > :13:10.always matter, man. Are you saying it's harder for the defense when you

:13:11. > :13:17.are small 1234 I've done this so many times, you have a guy behind

:13:18. > :13:22.you, he just pops out. Little guys, man... Dante Hall was doing that. He

:13:23. > :13:26.was a little guy, can't see him running down. I'm telling you, I've

:13:27. > :13:28.been in this situation. So in that situation, small is beautiful? Small

:13:29. > :13:34.is good. OK. You learn something every day

:13:35. > :13:38.with this show. Previously Osi and Jason have been out meeting our own

:13:39. > :13:39.footballers and comparing skills. This week Jason went to Crystal

:13:40. > :13:56.Palace to focus on management. We can always get you some kit. Have

:13:57. > :14:03.a run around. I like how you feel about me. I don't want to change

:14:04. > :14:10.that. So I heard you are a Lombardi fan? I

:14:11. > :14:16.am. Early on in my coaching career, I stumbled across his quotes, his

:14:17. > :14:19.books and he's a real inspirational character, something I relate to at

:14:20. > :14:24.this football club because Green Bay not being the Knost glamorous of

:14:25. > :14:29.teams like ourselves, so trying to do it against the odds, it's up my

:14:30. > :14:34.street. You are a former player, I'm not just saying this because it's

:14:35. > :14:36.you, but I always liked getting coached by former players, they can

:14:37. > :14:42.connect. Has that been advantageous for you? Yes. I've played with

:14:43. > :14:45.managers who've not played the game. The structure is fine but the

:14:46. > :14:50.emotions get lost with them. Being an ex-player, you probably have a

:14:51. > :14:54.bit more feel for than than you would. We have the offense and

:14:55. > :15:00.defense, seems like you are doing it all? No, no, no. Actually, from the

:15:01. > :15:06.NFL, I did take that sort of policy but because our game's so fluid and

:15:07. > :15:10.kind of felt as though your defense and attack were on the pitch at the

:15:11. > :15:15.same time, it felt like you were all defending but I do have, within my

:15:16. > :15:22.team, a coach I designate and a coach I designate for the attackers.

:15:23. > :15:24.Not as defined as the NFL. It's always one-on-one match-ups. You

:15:25. > :15:30.have got to learn your opponents so as a player I would really study a

:15:31. > :15:36.guy. We have an app where a player can go on and see his opponent, all

:15:37. > :15:40.the clips, everything. What he eats, drinks, the dances he likes, et

:15:41. > :15:44.cetera, everything. You know what, we know when they have been on there

:15:45. > :15:47.too because it registers with the main computer. They can check it

:15:48. > :16:01.out. I know. You have not put your time

:16:02. > :16:06.on. Absolutely. You can concentrate too much on the opposition, you will

:16:07. > :16:13.take away a little bit of positivity and maybe a bit of flair. Momentum

:16:14. > :16:17.is about you being in a place where you naturally do good things.

:16:18. > :16:21.Because you are confident. When you are not confident, there is no

:16:22. > :16:28.momentum and you have to try and find out. When you get momentum, the

:16:29. > :16:33.game becomes easy. You are fighting. Sometimes, it can get worse. I know

:16:34. > :16:46.that. For me, it is a pleasure because

:16:47. > :16:51.most of the time when I got time with the coach, I was in trouble.

:16:52. > :16:53.This is good. My staff say they only worry about the gaffer when they

:16:54. > :16:56.start ignoring me. It is important to speak to players, my daughter is

:16:57. > :17:02.always open. I might have to come by and say hello. I will let you coach

:17:03. > :17:13.your team. It has been nice to speak to you -- my door is always open.

:17:14. > :17:23.Guys you know you are welcome to have a cup of tea. When you met him,

:17:24. > :17:29.were you surprised at how much he has taken from NFL and tried to

:17:30. > :17:33.bring into his management? I was then he explained about being a fan

:17:34. > :17:38.of Green Bay and studying others sports and teams. It made sense that

:17:39. > :17:45.he would take whatever he could from whatever sport that would help. Who

:17:46. > :17:51.has the harder job? Who has to do more, a football manager in this

:17:52. > :17:57.country or a head coach in the NFL? I think a football manager in this

:17:58. > :18:01.country. He has control of a lot of aspects of his organisation. Head

:18:02. > :18:07.football coaches have to keep everything together and handle

:18:08. > :18:14.emotions and give pep talks. Some guys. Honestly, not to belittle the

:18:15. > :18:23.job of NFL head coach, but I have always wondered why they get paid so

:18:24. > :18:27.much money. In most instances, the bar not even a special teams

:18:28. > :18:32.coordinator, they managed the teams and manage the ego of the teams. I

:18:33. > :18:41.never really thought they did that much. I could be wrong, but I never

:18:42. > :18:46.thought they really did that much. Maybe we should put you into a head

:18:47. > :18:53.coach role for a week. That would be good. I am not sure many would go

:18:54. > :18:56.for it. The highlight of the only games so far in week six, the

:18:57. > :19:06.matchup between the San Diego Chargers and the Denver Broncos. The

:19:07. > :19:16.four on one Broncos are not ones to let anything out of their grip. The

:19:17. > :19:21.Chargers come in with this almost impossible to believe, four losses,

:19:22. > :19:32.the way they lost, they could have been three and two at the worst if

:19:33. > :19:35.you listen to Philip Rivers. Mike McCoy says no doubt, this football

:19:36. > :19:45.team is a lot better than the record. Denver against San Diego.

:19:46. > :19:55.Open. Catch is made, big game. It was Henry. One receiving. He is

:19:56. > :20:09.caught. Henry with the touchdown. The rookie from Arkansas. Again,

:20:10. > :20:23.right on the money. 37 yards. Lambeau drives it through. -- Lambo.

:20:24. > :20:31.He may have touched it. It is picked up and taken into the end zone by

:20:32. > :20:38.Parks. The ball touched the San Diego player in the angle. They

:20:39. > :20:47.cannot advance a cake. First and then at the 11 yard line -- Click.

:20:48. > :20:58.Dead centre. Gordon has got an open field. He breaks through that. --

:20:59. > :21:11.kick. Lambo converts, second and ten. Siemian complete set. The

:21:12. > :21:28.Chargers have recovered. This is Lambo at 431. He is good again. A

:21:29. > :21:42.diving grab. He is four for four at the nine. He has come up big. There

:21:43. > :21:58.were two files, both by the offence. They are in the player holding --

:21:59. > :22:14.fouls. What a short kick here. Denver recovers at the 15th.

:22:15. > :22:19.Siemian. He has Sanders at the 21. It is caught for the touchdown by

:22:20. > :22:30.Fowler. Do not let the quarterback runaround. Three receivers. Siemian

:22:31. > :22:36.he'd slipped and it is knocked down and the game is over and the

:22:37. > :22:45.Chargers have held on for a much-needed victory. Here are the

:22:46. > :22:50.other games in week six. A big one between the Philadelphia Eagles and

:22:51. > :22:56.the Washington Redskins. Interesting to see how the bangles cope at the

:22:57. > :23:03.Patriots. Steelers are at the dolphins and Bert rams are at the

:23:04. > :23:11.Detroit's lions. The Cowboys and the Packers will be a fascinating game.

:23:12. > :23:17.We will focus on the Atlanta Falcons at the Seattle Seahawks. Have

:23:18. > :23:24.Atlantis surprised you? They have found their Mojo. They are doing

:23:25. > :23:31.good things. Playing well. Matt Ryan has a lot of options. Absolutely.

:23:32. > :23:37.They have the receivers who can beat you. If you take those guys away,

:23:38. > :23:43.they will beat you with your running backs, Freeman and Coleman. They are

:23:44. > :23:51.going into a place traditionally which is difficult for an offence.

:23:52. > :23:57.The place is loud. It is rocking in Seattle and that hurts and fans. It

:23:58. > :24:02.impacts the game. The first time we played, we had an offensive line

:24:03. > :24:11.out, he had six ball stars, could not hear a single thing that Eli was

:24:12. > :24:17.saying. He had to guess. You had to look at the quarterback, they go on

:24:18. > :24:23.a silent count, you cannot hear anything. He had to guess when it

:24:24. > :24:29.was coming and he was off six times. For Russell Wilson, they are quiet

:24:30. > :24:35.on the offence. The problem for Russell Wilson is a fitness one. He

:24:36. > :24:40.has been banged up but he has been playing well and has been able to

:24:41. > :24:48.bounce back. By the Seahawks still as powerful? They are still one of

:24:49. > :24:54.the best teams and it will be difficult to beat them in Seattle.

:24:55. > :24:59.They have an outstanding head coach, they are a good arm offence and

:25:00. > :25:07.defence. It will be really tough to beat them. You are a former player

:25:08. > :25:14.for the Falklands, you will get excited, but we got a similar start

:25:15. > :25:21.from Atlanta last season -- Falklands. They will be able to

:25:22. > :25:27.fight back from adversity. The main thing is getting Matt Ryan on target

:25:28. > :25:32.and he feels very comfortable. We will be keeping an eye on the

:25:33. > :25:38.Falcons and the Seahawks. We will look at the highs and lows from week

:25:39. > :25:45.five. We will star with a man who features virtually every week,

:25:46. > :25:51.Beckham Junior, he had an argument with a kicking net last week, this

:25:52. > :26:00.week he made up with that. Here is his post match interview. We hugged

:26:01. > :26:05.it out. Last time I hit him, he hit me back and I told him it was good.

:26:06. > :26:15.I said from now on, we could be friends. It is what it is. We had

:26:16. > :26:19.fun. He did that with a straight face. Philip Rivers was furious

:26:20. > :26:23.during the San Diego game and his mood was not helped by some of the

:26:24. > :26:34.things he was watching from the sidelines. He has played better. Do

:26:35. > :26:42.Indianapolis know what they are doing? It is confusing. You're meant

:26:43. > :26:47.to use your hands to catch, but occasionally the helmet helps.

:26:48. > :26:54.Michael clap written -- Crabtree ought to have used his hands. Look

:26:55. > :27:00.at their fear on Matthew Stafford's phase! He was all right. Defence ten

:27:01. > :27:15.to play it cool when their helmets are not off. It looked like he just

:27:16. > :27:21.threw the ball. You need two hands. We will show you that, just to watch

:27:22. > :27:30.the bumps. You have to know your opponent. I am not going to bomb

:27:31. > :27:43.either of you. Let me point you in the direction of what is coming your

:27:44. > :27:50.way -- bump. From us, it is good night, we will see you next week.

:27:51. > :27:55.There is no animality here, no helmet to hide the expression,

:27:56. > :28:00.disguise the emotion, there is no release, no run, no contact, Noel
