I was used to have a GamePass season Pro account, but this year I have no money to put in it.
Any advice about free material (podcast, social, video, news sites, ...whatever) to follow the upcoming season available in Europe?
You can get game highlights on the NFL YouTube channel.

You're going to have to settle for highlights on youtube. Otherwise, DAZN has the international game pass and they broadcast two sunday games in the UK. Dunno what kind of access you have to any UK stuff in Italy. If you want more interesting and in-depth analysis, check out Youtube channels like Brett Kollman's, or JT O'Sullivan's QB School. Frankly, the sports media world is headed towards small passionate and knowledgable creators and big ESPN/Fox/CBS/NBC Sports shows are dying off. There are a lot of people making fantastic content with access to the All-22 film. Opens up a whole new world of understanding of the game.

It's not clear to me what the DAZN monthy start offer content is, in terms of NFL. If it's the whole gamepass that may be an interesting choice at 13€/month, if it's for 2 games of their choice it is not.

I also played here in Italy couple of years, so I think I'm into it enough to understand more tech stuff, but as a former gamepass pro user I didn't need to dig to much out of it for contents, since I watched 2 games on sunday and catch up during the week the other interesting games / shows.

My Gamepass automatically transferred to DAZN when it renewed. I pay £150 for the year and that gets me all games live, except for the 2 games that Sky show on the Sunday (which, as a Rams fan, was a bit of a pain, but now that we're a bit **** we'll not be picked for live games as often...)

mine too, or at least they tried. Since my payment method was not updated they were not able to continue my subscription.
and now DAZN is sending me a daily email asking to correct the payment method.
BTW this was an absolutely rubbish: every year I uncheck the automatic renewal because I want to have control on it. It was unchecked in gamespass (I have a screenshot of it), but DAZN checked it for me at the account transferral.
 
Who dat? Who dat say dey gon' beat them Saints? The Houston Texans. Did they? YES! It was a 17-13 final as the Texans knocked off the Saints in New Orleans. Most of this game was about the execution on offense for the Texans and the solid rushing defense. Passing defense can still use a little work, but there is plenty to be excited for from this performance.

The first regular season game for the Houston Texans in 2023 is at the Baltimore Ravens.
 
Looking forward to the season starting next week. After the past few years in Houston I finally have a bit of hope in seeing some progress. Still concerned about the WR group and interior OL line but that can be addressed in time.
 
Arguably one of my fav times of the year; the whole football season to look forward to and my Giants don't suck yet :P Last year was great, but I just don't see us repeating into the Divisional round again....maybe make the playoffs, maybe. But the odds of Philly, Dallas and us getting to the postseason for a 2nd straight year?....unlikely, but maybe we'll continue this trajectory :) Cheers to another season fellas! I also, not so secretly want the Bengals to get to the Super Bowl this year, *knock on wood @Dolph Drago

More of a college fan these days, but I got some magnets off Amazon to represent. Not the ones I wanted tho. Was looking to get more of the “badge” type magnets for both University of Arizona and RAIIIIIIIIIDERS!!

Headed out to Tucson in a couple hours to go watch our nephew play tomorrow in their opener 😎

Hope you've got a lot of wood to knock on, because us Cincy fans have been doing it for years to no avail. The knocking may have worked had some...let's say, questionable penalties not been called against us on the Rams' final drive two years ago. :lol:

You got away with Higgins grabbing Ramsey's face mask. Some you get, some you don't.

I forgot about that! So true though, you get some calls your way, other times you don't.

My biggest gripe was the inconsistency of the reffing. I won't disagree that Higgins got away with what he did. But the refs had been letting the teams play that way all night without blowing the whistle. Then suddenly on the last drive, yellow laundry was all over the field. That's what bothered me.

As long as the Bengals don't play an NFC West team, they should be okay. They don't have a good Super Bowl record vs NFC West teams.
 
I'm going to say this once if the Jets offensive line can hold up they will be a problem. If they get up on anybody they will be a problem. They are like 8 deep on the d line and they have an average QB playing for them. If they had a QB last year they would have made the playoffs. I have been a Jets going back to the days of NY Sack Exchange and this team has the potential to be one of the best Jets teams in a long time. Not saying they will win the SB but they have the chance to be really good
 
I'm not Rodgers fanboy by any stretch and I agree that he is past his prime but did you really just call Aaron Rodgers, easily a top 20, maybe as high as top 5 QB of all time average?

Unless his performance falls off a cliff due to age, which will definitely happen at some point, the Jets are for real and will definitely be the best Jets team since forever.

It’s a joke man. It’s an arrogant jets fan thing.
 
Definitely won't happen. AFC East is the new NFC West. Remember when the Seahawks, 49ers, Cardinals, and Rams were all really, really good, but you weren't sure that they would beat the Packers/Saints or Steelers/Patriots/etc etc in a deep playoff run? That's our conference now.
 
Welcome to the 2023 regular season of the National Football League! I won't highlight on all of the games this coming week, but I will mention a few of them. And here you go:

* We got some Midwestern hospitality as Joey D's Detroit Lions will be ready to roar meet the Kansas City Chiefs in Kansas City, MO. This is the Thursday Night Football match to kick off the new season.

* My Houston Texans will be at the Baltimore Ravens to start the season. DeMeco Ryans will look to turn around the Texans' misfortunes this season. Life won't be made easier by the Ravens, though.

* Dolph Drago's Cincinnati Bengals will start the 2023 season with a trip to Cleveland. Who is the better Ohio NFL team? We'll find out on Sunday afternoon.

* Staying in the Midwest, but going to the NFC, it's the Green Bay Packers paying a visit to the Chicago Bears in a game on FOX.

* Omnis' Miami Dolphins will travel to the other side of the Lower 48 to meet the Los Angeles Chargers.

* Our first Sunday Night Football game of the season will see the Dallas Cowboys at the New York Giants.

* Our first Monday Night Football game of the season will feature the Buffalo Bills at the other New York team- Blitz24's New York Jets.

Enjoy all the action this season, GTPlaneteers!
 
I'm going to be so insufferable if the Lions manage to beat the Chiefs.

We're going to have to find a new doormat team to make fun of. My guess is either Cleveland or Houston will be appropriate targets.

When the Cowboys lose, America wins

It's the Browns since they managed to destroy all their goodwill by giving Watson a dump truck full of money.

I don't think many people even think about the Texans. You can't really dislike them since they haven't done anything to warrant any hate.
 
Well, Joey D, we might be trash here in Houston, but I do have some good vibes about the Houston Texans in 2023. I could realistically see them winning an AFC Wild Card if all things align correctly. We're going to struggle. Thing is, can we still contend and improve after a string of woeful seasons? Maybe we win the AFC South while the rest of the AFC South is garbage. That would be the most unrealistic and unlikely scenario.
 
Oopsies. Apologies kjb. Didn't know Jets Fans had a sense of humor. :-)
No worries Rodgers is still good QB. Definitely better than the bum who is his backup. Still a little salty about last season though if the Jets had an avg QB they would have made the playoffs or least be close to it. But TBH when Breece Hall went I knew they were done. Anyway for this time in along time I excited about the coming season
