Wow. Flacco. 5 TDs in the first half. Still plenty fo time left in second quarter too.

Oh wow Green Bay. What a finish. And that makes it 3/3 for Dappa Dan.

GMMM... Good point, however, they USUALLY put on Denver. And as much as they're like the Hawks of the NFL.... a good advertisement for the game... I'm dead set bored of them.

Oh yeah no interest in Denver smashing the Jets, it was Seattle (who are also like the Hawks in more ways than one) who I wanted to see because whilst I'm sick of them as well I thought Dallas might serve up a big game against them. And they did.

Anyway Washington Arizona hasn't been too bad but its felt inevitable for a while. Cousins throws too many picks.

Bears win, offense found some rhythm and defense despite missing out 4 best LB's and holding the falcons offense so that makes me happy.

And I got a point. GB and San Diego both made it hard work but the point is scored!

That's a huge win for Dallas ... in terms of the actual win and the confidence that comes from it. Maybe they are the real deal? ... the implosion might come in the playoffs however :)

Points galore to allocate in the comp but Dappa is still the clubhouse leader - I'll tally it up after tomorrow's game.

Gee things are hotting up in NFC East.

What a fizzer your game turned out to be ... first Monday I've had freed up for ages and the Giants decide to not turn up.

I doubt many were predicting that the 3 teams with the best record after 6 games would be the Chargers, Dallas & the Eagles ... maybe the Eagles but the other 2?

I've been telling everyone within ear shot that Dallas would be horrible this year. I obviously know nothing.

It's all good mate. Vikings haven't scored a TD in 3 weeks. It can turn around and the advantage of NFL is you only have 16 games to suck or succeed. Once Minnesota games are finished I actually enjoy watching any game of NFL. It's the only time I don't scream at the TV. I just kick back and watch some very entertaining games. I don't really do that when our footy season is on.

I'm the same, Cowboy. I'm so used to KC being decent once every 4 years and rancid in between that I've just always enjoyed watching any game. Also, the fact that we are rarely on TV has contributed to this.

It's what got me started on this thread. Unlike AFL with it's appalling admin... The NFL has the entertainment aspect down pat. I love the storylines and even have genuine soft spots for other clubs.

I watched the Cowboys/Seahawks game and it was a pretty good game to watch, Cowboys D was excellent, especially against the run. iirc Seattle only got 6 yards from beast and the other running back in the first half.

All games are presented very well and a NFL games looks so much better on TV then the standard definition crap we have. I don't have a real solid hatred for any team. I get a kick out of seeing Dallas die off at the end of the year and the jets are good for a laugh. With so many games they aren't all the same either. Watching a eagles game is different to watching a Seattle game. I'm even a fan of Aaron Rodgers. He destroys us every year but it's a bit like watching Ablett play.

Yeah I agree. There's players you just tune in to watch, much more than AFL. Shady I think is one. Petersen when he's not busy looking for his switch and smoking dope. And to be honest the reason I'm into the NFL is about 50% Eagles (I traded following Eagles and Philles in the NFL and MLB to my mate if he followed the demons and Aussie cricket team)... and 50% Mike Vick. He's still the most fun NFL player I've watched.

I actually prefer Rogers to Manning. Manning is the best, but there's something dull about how he plays. Maybe it's cos I can't read what he's doing as well as someone who grew up with Grid Iron. He's more an intellectual fan favourite.

Posted (edited)

So all the NFL fans in here who bet.... where do you go to make complicated bets?... For example, I wanna find out how much they're paying for both Eagles and Cowgirls to go 12-4 or better?

Bloody niners...

I like Davis, I think he is good, but when things start going against us, he doesnt step up and take control, I hope he learns that over the year cos if he does he could be a high quality QB.

Our D is poo!!!! Absolute Poo!!!!

Gone from the best to so pisspoor it's horrible to watch, we get leads and then the D makes stupid mistakes and then they get a run on and our O line collapses.

Fisher will be gone by week 14.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
