The Snap UK (An American Football Podcast)

The Los Angeles Rams are Super Bowl champions, beating the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in a tight but enthralling game at SoFi Stadium.  Will Aaron Donald call it a day now? Is this is for Sean McVay? What do the Bengals have to get back in the Super Bowl next year? The Zac Taylor question Aaron Rodgers is MVP, is he a justified winner this year? What is going to happen with Kyler Murray at the...

The SuperBowl is this weekend, and who is going to come out on top as the Bengals play the Rams in SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Will Joe Burrow pull the Bengals through to the biggest prize in the sport, or will Aaron Donald finally grab his chance to win a SuperBowl ring? We also have to discuss the new coach hires, from the Jags hiring Doug Pederson, to the Texans reverting to being very Texans,...

We now know who is in the Super Bowl, and just like we predicted, it's the Cincinnati Bengals...well maybe not predicted, but it's going to be cool to see Joe Burrow et al in the sports greatest game. They stop Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs offence, in a game of two halves.  The Bengals will be playing the Rams, who make another Super Bowl, and overcome the San Francisco 49ers, a...

We now know who is playing in the Championship games, and for the first time in a decade it won't feature either Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers, who were beaten by the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers respectively. A Brady style comeback from the Buccaneers is foiled by the familiar combination of Stafford to Cooper Kupp at the end to set up Matt Gay, and the 49ers win a low scoring game with...

Super Wildcard Weekend was a lot of fun, and some of the games were good, whilst the Eagles and Patriots were at least in the Playoffs.  Who takes the momentum onwards out of the Chiefs and Bills? Packers and 49ers is too tight to call Who gets through when the Buccaneers host the Rams? Can the Bengals keep their hot streak going, and get past the rested Titans and the Derrick Henry?

What with so much to cover this week, we've looked into the upcoming Super Wildcard Weekend games in a seperate episode. Who do we think will make it through the next weekend games, and into the Super Divisional Round? With a host of new Head Coach positions up for grabs, which of the free slots are most appealing? As the Regular Season is now over, who is in the lead of our Power Rankings as we h...

We now know who is going to make the Playoffs, and the Chargers miss out at the last as Steelers and Raiders make up the contingent for the AFC, whilst the 49ers win at the Rams and are in the Playoffs for the NFC. The Jaguars play ruiners, and beat the Colts in Jacksonville again, and cost Indianapolis a chance to make the Playoffs. All the week 18 games are covered, as Green Bay lead the NFC des...

Week 17 of the NFL season and we're at the business end of the season and there were results which affected Playoff standings The Bengals come back to win against the Chiefs The Steelers remain in contention beating the Browns The Titans take the lead in the AFC The Packers remain imperious against the depleted Vikings Cardinals stop the slump by beating the Cowboys, who lose Gallup to an ACL inju...

In Week 16 of the 2021 NFL season, the Bills win against the Patriots and take control of the AFC East, with Josh Allen in fine form against a previously lights out defence. Kansas City Chiefs beat an incredibly poor Steelers Dallas Cowboys beat the Football Team, but what can we learn about that, if anything? The New York Giants were pathetic again, but what is new?

To the surprise of few, Urban Meyer is fired, although to go mid-season for allegedly kicking Josh Lambo was not how we saw it going. He leaves with two wins and a team in disarray, but are they better without him? A few coaches, Jim Harbaugh and Brandon Staley in particular, made gutsy 4th down calls this week, but is this a bad thing? Kansas City Chiefs offence is back on form, but Chargers leav...

As the race for the Playoffs begins to heat up, where in the NFC the Rams catch up a game on the Cardinals, whilst the Packers and Buccaneers are also at 10-3. In the AFC the Chiefs and Titans join the Patriots at 9-4, whereas the Baltimore Ravens lose to the Browns as injuries continue to hit Baltimore. The Broncos pay an emotional tribute to Demaryius Thomas, who sadly passed at the age of 33. A...

With Jim along via FaceTime, the team is reunited to go over all the happenings in Week 13, including: Pats win with a playbook from the 1950s Lions win a game, and Mike Zimmer's seat is now burning Steelers win, but Ravens lose after going to two, and more players to injury Cardinals have Kyler back, and continue winning Mike Glennon is not the answer for the Giants Who is worse, the Texans or th...

Thanksgiving games ranged from the ridiculous shamble of Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions, to a brilliant game between Las Vegas Raiders at Dallas Cowboys that went into overtime.  The Patriots are in great form, beating the Titans who are short of attacking options, whilst the Bills bully the Saints and Miami defence shows up against Carolina, and give Cam Newton a torrid time.  Green Bay...

On a week with the original recipe set of presenters (Thrash & Griff) we discuss the Patriots becoming the form team in the AFC, whilst the Colts create one of the results of the season against the Bills. The Chiefs continue to find form and defensive stability against a Cowboys team that have started to stutter a bit, but have very little to worry about.  The Vikings have enough to beat...

The crazy results continue, with the Rams and Buccaneers losing, whilst the Cardinals injury hit team are beaten by the Carolina Panthers, who welcome back Cam Newton in an easy win.  The Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots make easy work of New York Jets and Cleveland Browns, whilst Dallas Cowboys return to form with a crushing win against Atlanta Falcons.  The Kansas City Chiefs sco...

It is a week to forget for Dallas Cowboys, who are thrashed by Denver Broncos, whilst the Bills are even more disappointing in a turgid game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.  Jordan Love gets his first start for Green Bay Packers, after Aaron Rodgers has a week to forget, and they lose another turgid affair to Kansas City Chiefs.  Las Vegas Raiders have it even worse, cutting two 2020 f...

Green Bay Packers beat Arizona Cardinals, who in worse news may have to be without Kyler Murray for a game or two, whilst JJ Watt is out for the year.  Dallas Cowboys win against the Vikings, even without Dak. The Saints hoodoo over the Brady-led Buccs continues, but they lose Jameis Winston for the season to a knee injury. All the games are covered, even the bad ones, whilst we look into the...

The Chiefs are really struggling now, and even Patrick Mahomes is proving to be human, and this latest loss wasn't even close. Elsewhere the Bengals thrash the Ravens, with Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase are playing lights out.  Are the Ravens Super Bowl contenders, at least one person thinks so? Dan Campbell is making decisions like an 8 year old playing Madden, is this a show of bravery, fun...

Jon Gruden is gone from the Raiders, after emails are released showing historic offences. The Cowboys beat the Patriots in another overtime game, and Cee Dee Lamb looks every bit a leading receiver.  The Jags hand a last second loss to the Dolphins as the NFL UK tour ends, with a first win for Urban Meyer. The Cardinals keep winning, and the Packers hand another loss to the Bears

Week 5 and the guys have a trip down to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium so see Atlanta Falcons make short work of the New York Jets, whilst Justin Herbert and Austin Ekeler are unplayable against a decent Cleveland Browns team. John Gruden under scrutiny after racist comments emerge from the recent past, whilst Urban Meyer continues to face questions after his trip to the bar. Cleveland Browns and Los A...

Cardinals are the only unbeaten team in the league, beating the Rams who came into this week on top of most pundit's Power Rankings.  Brady returns to Foxboro and gets the win, but there are also signs of encouragement for Belichick and Mac Jones for the Patriots.  Urban Meyer is a dirty dog, and whilst the Jaguars are improving, they are still 0-4 The Cowboys look great, New York Giants...

Week 3 is done and dusted, and Stafford seems to be having no trouble at all settling in at Los Angeles, where the Rams have shown that the Buccaneers are beatable. The Panthers and Raiders continue to impress, whilst Broncos make the most of their soft schedule to start.  The Ravens win it late with Justin Tucker hitting the longest field goal ever, but the Lions are at least trying. Justin...

Week 2 is now in the book and some of the Over-reactions from Week 1 were corrected, as the Packers look more like themselves, the Patriots put on a defensive masterclass, Derrick Henry is running through defences again, the Steelers fail to protect Big Ben and Jameis is back throwing it to the opposition.  Along with this, we also discuss: Derek Carr is brilliant The Chiefs defence may cost...

So the Texans may not be the worst team in football, although Week 1 of the 2021 NFL Season has a couple of storied teams that had absolutely awful starts to the season. Amongst everything else this week, we discuss: Kansas City Chiefs have (another) tight victory, this time over the impressive Browns, but that KC offence can just not be stopped The repeat is on for the Buccs, but Cowboys offense...

We can almost taste the new season, with Dallas and Tampa Bay only a couple of sleeps away, and to take a final look at the new season, we have 4th and Inches back. What games in Week 1 are we looking forward to? What in the whole season are we looking forward to, and what are we dreading over the next 18 or so weeks?
