NFL Thread

I'm a Raiders fan so naturally it's been a rough decade or so for me. Heartbroken to see Carr have his leg broken and singlehandedly lose our hopes of a Super Bowl in a matter of a day. :mad:
 
My daughter wants me to bring her to see Arizona Cardinals at Twickenham in October.
Where's the best place to get tickets and how much are they likely to cost.
Any ideas anyone please.
 
Think it's a bit off to compare the Texans with Chelsea. They've not won anything even when they had the Oilers. Comparisons between NFL and footie don't work to well. Just my two cents. As a Seahawks Fan.
 

New money are you?

Sort of...although in a salary cap league it's not so much about money but more about having a great organization...which starts at the top.

Seattle is a relatively new team (1976 expansion). At the beginning they were owed by the Nordstrom family...a local family that built a retail giant. We struggled for a few seasons as most expansion teams do but found some success in the mid 80's.

Then the Nordstroms sold the team to a snake called Ken Behring. He nearly drained the life out of the franchise and tried to relocate the team. The organization even fell into bankruptcy for a short period. He was an absolutely terrible owner. Funny how his failures as an owner made it seem like the team needed to relocate to make money.

Anyway thankfully in 1998 Paul Allen (Microsoft billionaire) bought the team and returned the organization to the upward trend they had in the 80's with the Nordstroms. Under his ownership we have enjoyed our most successful spell including three Super Bowl appearances and one win.

When Allen convinced Holmgren to come aboard the whole franchise got going. Soon after they tore down the Kingdome and built the Q-West. Back then they were playing in the AFC in a division with KC, Oakland, SD. I happened to live a couple of months in Seattle in 99-2000 when we lost the Wildcard Game against the Dolphins.
