If you love the NFL and you have the Yahoo Sports app, listen up! There’s now a feature in the app that lets you chat with fellow fans of your favorite football team, as well as Yahoo Sports experts. Called Game Discussions, the tool is designed to help you experience the biggest sports moments together with fans across the country during live games.
And guess what? Yahoo Sports’ very own NFL analysts and Football 301 hosts, Nate Tice and Charles McDonald, will be online during tonight’s Denver Broncos-New Orleans Saints game to get in on the action. They’ll be engaging with fans – that could be you – and answering as many questions as possible.
The feature will be available starting with this edition of Thursday Night Football, and you’ll have access to discussions during every NFL game for the remainder of the season.
Here’s how to access the new Game Discussions feature on Thursday night so you can celebrate with (or vent to) peers when your team scores a touchdown, turns the ball over, or whatever else.
As of Thursday, here’s what Game discussions will let you do.

There are two ways to join Game Discussions via the Yahoo Sports app. You can either select the featured game cards on the home tab or you can find it by going to game pages. With either option, you’ll see the new “Join the Discussion” button the first time you access it.
Let us know in the comments how you like the new feature when you use it on Thursday!
