I thought the Steelers might be ok without Ben for 4 weeks, but vs Ravens, at Chargers, vs Cardinals at Chiefs is absolutely brutal.

Then when he gets back it's SeaHawks, Colts and Denver (plus Oakland) and Divisional games to finish the year.

They'll need to win at least 1 if not 2 of the 4 (if it is 4 weeks) to keep on pace.

 

I keep waiting for your boys to take the next step. There is too much talent in St.louis to be losing those type of games at home. I think Fisher is on his way out but then you will beat Arizona or Seattle again and all is forgiven.

We are at Arizona this week the. Have GB the week after so we will prob be 1-4.

Our D holds us in the game, special teams score 1/4 of our points pretty much. Our O line is young, but not doing well yet so the running lanes are not there.

Yeah. You did. Thanks. lol


Ha ha, seriously tho, how good does Rogers and GB look! Thought Nelson might have hurt them a bit but damn, they have just changed their game and not missed a beat!

Week 4 games

Week 4 for is for 1 point only but we have a bonus week coming up in week 5 (2 points) ... other bonus weeks are weeks 8, 10, 13, 15 & 17

Also, this week the Jets are the designated "away" team even though their game against Miami is being played in London. Previously we've allowed the designated away team (in London) to be allowed in your tips so unless anyone has any objections, we'll continue to allow it.

My tips ...

Panthers

Packers

Eagles

 

Any public holiday where I get to see an NFL game live is fine by me.

These Ravens/Steelers match-ups are always good games too - they hate each other and it's a huge rivalry. The Ravens are lucky that Big Ben is out but Vick is still quite capable on his day.

Ravens in a close one.

I'm taping it, I'm out this morning, hope to be home by midday and start watching then, but I feel the wife will have us fixing things on the property so I'll prob watch this arvo.

Yep, the Steelers had a number of chances to at least pick up field goals but they either missed them or as we saw towards the end of the game, not even attempt one of those field goal opportunities.

The game itself was close as usual but lacked the ferocity of previous encounters.

Agree, seemed a lot less aggressive as normal.

Flacco doesn't look sharp and a 1-3 record probably shows that.


I only saw the last quarter and OT but neither side looked like they wanted to win... Not sure why the steelers didn't go for the FG on that 4th & 1, yes it would have been a 51 yd attempt after their kicker had missed a couple previous but they had to go for it!

Good win by the Ravens, even if it was against a Roethlisberger-less Steelers.

My tips for this week are Packers, Panthers and Raiders.

I have a feeling all sorts of records are going to be broken in GB-SF, and not in a good way for the 49ers...

Bloody raiders!

I hate them! Never should have picked them. Bah!

Good win by the Rams, held the cards offence to 5 fg's before they got a TD. Our O line actually played well. Gee I saw why Gurley was rated so highly.

Now to see if Fisher can finally, finally get us to win outside our division. We are off to play the packers away... Eeeek.


Back from a short break with no phone reception so I missed the tips but I would've failed anyway. Vikes lost a close one at Denver but they played very well. Denver's pass rush is scary good but Peyton has dropped off a bit.

A lot of close finishes in today's games ... 7 games decided by less than a TD (most within a field goal) Redzone couldn't keep up in the early games - still great viewing though.

Many of the games carried a fair impact too ...

  • Biggest losers were the Eagles, Raiders, KC & probably Dallas
  • Biggest winners were Atlanta, Carolina, Denver & Cincinnati again whilst the Giants, Jets, Redskins, Chargers & the Rams all had important wins.

Seattle should win comfortably tomorrow so a Lions win really would surprise.

No points won this week in the tipping comp ...

SeaHawks got away with one today. Can't believe the refs either didn't know the rule or didn't review that. Had to do one or the other.

The Hawks defense still looks amazing but without Lynch at least the O line doesn't do enough to help Wilson or the run game. For the life of me I can't work out the Jimmy Graham trade.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
