Terrible news.

Gees his had an injury riddled couple of years... Dak Prescott has looked good in the pre season whether he can take that into the regular season or not...

Yeah, he's been quite impressive by all accounts ... regardless, that division (NFC East) is always a total mystery anyway. 

Any team can win it but Dallas will miss Romo ... I picked them to win the division but I'll stick with the tip because they've probably still got just as good a chance to win it as the other 3 teams.

Be interesting to see how the Eagles go with their new QB (Wentz)

Been moving house so haven't been able to keep up with everything. Romo hurt again is not much of a shock. Is weeden still their back up? I'll post my predictions during the week as of now I think Oakland, Pittsburgh, and the Jets will be good and those packers look fit and firing again. Vikes O line is still a mess so I'm not so confident this year.

I don't think our season will even get off the ground.

Not long to go now ... final practice games on Thursday night and then we're into it.

In the meantime I'll post up all the playoff game highlights from last season ... 2 games at a time for the next week and a half.  The links will take you to youtube where you can full-screen the highlights.

Chiefs @ Texans AFC Wildcard

Steelers @ Bengals AFC Wildcard

Given San Fran is probably the worst side in it this year, my main interest is in watching some of the traditionally weaker sides improve and push for playoffs - I'm thinking Jets, Jaguars and Bills.

Bridgewater done with a possible ACL at practice. Anyone got a spare QB I could borrow? 


Ouch, thats awful. Don't stress your back up QB will still probably be better than all three of ours.

Not good...I saw Denver contacted Dallas after Romo went down for a possible Mark Sanchez trade, maybe he could be an option

Oh yeah.  I remember him...

In his defence we didn't have any wise recievers or an O line...

Now we have an Oline I think....

Don't tell me that Gorgoroth... If they finish higher than us I'll be sick! Reckon they'll finish last in the NFC South 

I find it hard to write off the saints. 

No rational reason why. Brees can win you games you shouldn't. 

I'd forgotten about the Bengals blowing that game against the Steelers ... post #3983 in case you missed it.  Anyway, here's the other 2 wildcard games ...

Packers @ Washington NFC Wildcard Highlights

Seahawks @ Minnesota NFC Wildcard Highlights

Rotten news mate ... I was expecting Teddy to take it to another level this season too.

Yeah I know it was only pre season but all of his plays were downfield throws of 20+ yards. The plan was to throw deep and run with AP opening up big plays with the play action passing game. This year will remind of the Christian Ponder era where we pass the ball not for yards but just to give AP a rest.

Aaaaaaaaaand Goff is number three on the starting QB.

Sigggggghhhhhhhhhhh

From memory these arrangements often start out this way but any change could happen quite quickly if the outcomes don't come up to expectations. 

Win early and Goff has to wait ... but if you lose games early then Goff may well get fast-tracked.

You think ? Mannion took majority of snaps today. Game 4 of pre season is a joke, it's literally a game 90% filled with players who will wind up on the practise squad... Jags held out 28 players from the Falcons game!

After completing 3 of 4 passes for 53 yards on the opening drive, he was a disturbing 3 of 12 for 14 yards with two turnovers on the final seven first-half possessions.

The Rams' quarterback of the future finished his first preseason 22 of 49 (44.9 percent) for 232 yards (4.73 yards per attempt), two touchdowns, two interceptions, three fumbles and a 55.8 passer rating.

Perhaps most telling, Goff has shown little awareness -- struggling with snaps, taking too many hits and failing to process at NFL speeds.

 

Only hope Fisher gets the sack week 2...

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
