@Martin it used the be the QBs responsibility to throw the ball to a place where the receiver would not get hit, otherwise they would lose the guy after 3 downs. But now days, with the contact rules and penalties, it’s a bit different. It’s like the NBA. I love the NBA but they took a lot from the game by calling faults for just about any contact and adding so many new rules and penalties. Still love it though. Football is a bit different but adding more cards or rules isn’t great for the game I think. It needs to remain a bit organic and loose. Even VAR was too much in my opinion. If the ref did not see it, well too bad… just a personal opinion though

@Martin so many rules now, some valid to protect players but many took away from the game. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still amazing to watch but it’s changed a lot. There an interesting interview from Brady discussing this. I’ll look for the link and share if you’re interested. They throw flags for just about anything.
Yeah I agree there is less contact allowed now but they do that to protect the players from injury. One thing I have noticed is they don't call roughing the passer as much as they did a couple of years back for minimal contact which is good. I also think they try to cut the flags down a bit in the bigger games.

@Trevor-H well done, price a bit skinny for me so decided to wait for 1.4, it got to 1.39 just as goal scored so just missed out.
Yes, I know what you mean, but these games are starting out at around 1.05 for O0.5, so I think if I can get to 1.25 I'm doing OK.

Quite a bit going on today, have added colour coding to depict strength of suggested strategy, Green is highest, then Yellow, then Amber.
PS these are not tips... Do with them what you will.
I like the colour coding on strength great idea for testing!

I think as soon as the US owners reach 11 out of 20 in the prem we shall see a game played in the states like the NFL does here, I don't actually think it's such a bad thing though taking some of the good things from the US sports and applying it here.
Anybody who has been to the NFL will know how fun a lot of the stuff around the game is, I cannot wait till my girls are big enough to go to a NFL game.

@Greg-Mitchell It will take me the day to read that

@Akiva-Anderson they’re tripping aren’t they? They’re gonna kill the sport, just like they did in the US with the NFL.
