I just had a look. It's tough. Might have to wait one more week. lol

Might do the same ... can only find 3 locks for the division titles and they're all in the AFC.

The NFC is a nightmare to figure out - especially in the West

Yeah it's nuts. You just wouldn't have confidence with so many. Actually there's very few teams in the NFL that don't have massive gaping holes. Denver would be the only one that seems solid everywhere.

Does beg the question wether the divison winners should automatically advance to the playoffs.. The saints could go 7-9 or 8-8 or the panthers 7-8-1 or 8-7-1 and make it... While other sides could go 9-7 or 10-6 in a strong divison but not make it... Seem stupid

Nope division winner makes it. I'm happy with that.

But I do think the team with the better record should host the wildcard game. The 10-6 wildcard should host the 8-8 division winner.

It would certainly be an interesting coincidence if Seattle finished with the better record and had to go play the Saints as the reverse happened a few years back and Seattle as heavy underdogs at home got the win.

 

San Diego, Colts and Denver.

Was very very tempted to go Washington instead of Denver but decided against it.

Tough, tough week to find 3 road winners ... a point gained this week will be invaluable

Eagles

Colts

Arizona

San Diego

Washington

Eagles

Rg3 is back against the vikes. Not sure if that bothers me too much. He hasn't found form for some time. Colt McCoy looked pretty good against Dallas. Hard tipping week so I'll back rg3 in to play well.

I was going to tip the Eagles but I keeps seeing in my own mind JJ Watt smashing Foley every play...

Can't wait to watch the cards/cowboys game, is Romo playing?

 

Could easily end up with nothing this week

Ravens

Indy

Arizona

Should probably have put in Denver over Pats but I want to watch the game with nothing riding on it

I'm worried about him and Clowney... could this be the week?

They've given up 2 sacks in about 6 weeks, but that's mostly cos Foles is throwing it away like a frightened child.

Yeah looking at Weeden he seemed to cope well in a pinch. It's a good one that one cos win or loss, Eagles win.

I traded away Ingram for Maclin midweek. This way madness lies.

Not a bad game today, Cam needs to drop a few mph of his passes tho, reminds me of Buckley, beautiful user of the ball but if your team can't hold the ball cow it's sent to them too hard then the pass isn't any good.

I can't see him playing but they're saying he might - hasn't practiced all week so he'd have to be doubtful - you'd think.

Romo Has Fractures In Back; Might Play Sunday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo suffered two fractured transverse process in his back in the loss to the Washington Redskins, but there remains a chance he could play Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, according to multiple sources.

Romo just got pulled from the game. Good move by Cowboys.


Chargers, yuck... Well normality returns to my tipping... Filthy I've got to work today, broncos/patriots would be the perfect way to start the week

Back and forward game against Washington. Gotta stop RG3 and Jackson connecting on huge plays.

Week 9:

San Diego

.

Lol.

Pretty comfortable day for the Chiefs. Had to take care of business today. The game against Seattle in a couple weeks is shaping as the third easiest we have left, so we couldn't afford to slip up.

So this is what it feels like to have your team win two in a row.

First and goal from the Rams' 2 on the final drive of the game.

We lost.

Only Colin Kaepernick knows how to lose games from that position.


The Steelers & Ravens really don't like each other, do they?

Stand out moments today ...

49ers losing - that's gotta hurt

The Pats are right back in business and maybe Denver aren't that good

The Eagles,KC, Cinci & Arizona all had vital wins

Miami might be a good team and are the Vikes back in it?

Seattle win in unimpressive fashion but Pittsburgh continue to impress.

And Dappa, picking those division winners, Conference match-ups and wild-cards is going to be hard work - I'll have a go in a day or so.

Two stories that stick out for me are Big Ben has gone mad. Holy crap he can play. He is destroying teams with the help of a defense that can get the ball. The other story is the AFC is an absolute mess. I Wouldn't have the faintest idea how the AFC is going to play out. Apologies to St. Louis who had an awesome win.

Forgot to mention Aussie punter brad wing who scored a 2 point conversion.

 

RRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

8 SACKS!!!!!

A TD that should have stood, A safety that may have been against us (WTF were you thinking Austin???)

Great defensive game, but wow, 8 sacks!

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
