CFL is on live right now, watching a bit of it, it's making me miss the NFL.

Agreed, hanging out for the season to start. Only 7 weeks till the first preseason game... Even if their preseason is rubbish!

T least with the Rams pre season I should see the QB nice and early.

 

  • 2 weeks later...

Had a look at gamepass to see what  the pricing was & seems as though there is only the full package available... I cant remember in previous years if the individual team packages come closer to pre season or not.. Im not to keen on paying $260 to watch Falcons games, I wouldnt get much time to watch any of the other stuff

Edited by JV7

 

I  think i paid $130ish no playoffs a few years ago.

Mate just told me he had tix to see Eagles opener and is flying over for it.

Just read that officially the only Gamepass package avaliable this season is the full package at $260.. Previous years I have just got the Falcons games for around $130. Seems like I'll have to pay the $260 for the full package if I want to watch Falcons games. You do get all games & all playoffs but I wont watch many other games & playoffs are free on fox & 7mate so seems $260 is a rip off!

We released Foles. 

No suprises there really is there... Surely Goff will be the #1 when they release the first depth chart & given first crack at training camp & pre season games ?

 

You would think so.  I know fisher had said Keenum is in the mix but surely Goff can hand the ball to Gurley 50 times a game...

Hanging for the season to start. At the moment I'm soaking in all the attention the vikes are getting on NFL network as a contender. I don't think we are better then Carolina,Seattle,Arizona or Green Bay at their best. New stadium looks great and I think Atlanta are building a new shiny stadium as well.

So Tre Mason is missing...

His mum has now called in the police to try and find him.

Seems the young bloke has some issues... Strange his just dropped off the radar, you'd think someone would have raised the alarm before now. 

Dwight Freeney signed a one year deal with the Falcons, heres hoping he can improve our dreadful pass rush... Although not good to rely on a 36 year old.

Yeah it is strange, but during the off season the clubs are not able to contact the players so easy enough from the club point of view.

Flicked over to ESPN to have a look at the Hall of Fame game and see the games been cancelled due to field condition... Wouldn't see that too often!! 

Read on bleacher report that tee mason was seen doing training drills out the front of his mother's house. He told reporters he won't attend training camp and he has had some run ins with police in the off season.

Alright the season is only a couple of weeks away & I'm getting excited... I'm going to kick off with some season predictions.

AFC  East
Pats
AFC West
Cheifs
AFC North
Bengals
AFC South
Colts

NFC East
Giants
NFC West
Cardinals
NFC North
Packers
NFC South
Panthers 

Wild Card- Raiders, Steelers, Vikings, Seahawks 

Superbowl - Packers

MVP - Aaron Rodgers

Passing Yards- Drew Brees

Receiving Yards- Julio Jones

Rushing Yards- Todd Gurley

 

Gurley I'm typing to start ok.  Then to be hampered by the fact the rams still can't throw the ball. 

Cards look the best in our div. Seashawks second. Our D just doesnt look as good in the secondary. I'm going out O line actually performs this year and we find some recievers to catch the bloody thing. 

Just realised I've left the defending champs out of the playoffs... I'll stick with it, don't think Sanchez will be all that great at QB, having said that Peyton wasn't all that good last year & Denvers defense won them the SB, not sure they can do it again this year. I'm bullish on the Raiders chances in that division, really like them on both sides of the ball & I'm a fan of Carr, hope they make the playoffs...

I'll have a go at the division winners etc on the weekend ... the season kicks off in just over 2 weeks - that came around quickly this time probably because of the footy team still being thereabouts and getting all of our attention.

Does anyone take any notice of the preseason games? I'm well and truly hooked on the real stuff but barely even look at the scores in the preseason games.  The games are ultra important for formations, schemes, running routes and what not but the importance of the winning & losing is probably reserved for the real stuff. 

Anyway, we can do the tipping comp again if we have enough starters (5 or 6 or more) ... thought it best to leave it as it is (tip 3 road winners from 3 picks) but may throw an extra bonus point round in (or 2)  Bonus weeks can be the odd numbered weeks starting with week one ... 2 points max except week 17 which traditionally carries 3 points.

Yeah 100% Melbourne been alive late in the season has taken my attention away from the NFL. 

I enjoy the tipping so if you can find the time again Macca I'm in for sure... I like the 3 road winner system we've got going!! 

On the preseason, I tried to watch the Falcons/Browns game last friday but I just couldn't get into it, with no real meaning it's quiet boring. I think with so many random players who aren't even going to make the 53 man roster it's hard to even watch for young players & see how they go. I'll have a quick look at the highlights but there pointless from a spectacle really. 

Anyone else getting gamepass this year? I ended up forking out the $260!

In preseason I don't pay attention to much until well 3 when first team play about a half. Week four is really thier only meaningful game. 

 

Well here goes ...

NFC North - Vikings

NFC East - Dallas

NFC West - Arizona

NFC South - Panthers

AFC North - Steelers

AFC East - Pats

AFC West - Denver

AFC South - Colts

Wildcards - Seattle,  Packers,  Bengals,  KC

Super Bowl - Panthers

MVP - Cam Newton

Passing yards - Carson Palmer

Receiving yards - Julio Jones

Rushing yards - Adrian Peterson

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
    Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
