Bolton also won 4-0 this morning to go second, 1 point from the top. 

What a good day!

I will get home soon, watch the Sunday night game and have a drink. 

Much rejoicing!!!

A 'cuban' is called for as well Gorgo.

As well as all that you've hit the outright lead in the tipping comp

Ha ha, I prefer Dominican Republic cigars to Cubans, although I did purchase a lovely Magnum for NYE.

Just realised I didn't pick for Week 14.

 

There's still a total of 6 points up for grabs in the tipping comp including 2 points this week ... another tough week to find 3 clear-cut road wins though.  Still, the comp was never designed to be easy ha ha

Romo being talked about again ... no surprise really, it was only going to take 1 loss like the one Dallas had yesterday.  On top of that, Romo is being paid a hell of a lot of money to sit on the sidelines 100% of the time.

If Prescott starts having another off day in their next 3 games, I can see Romo at least being given some phases during any of those games.  And that may be enough for the switch-back to happen.  Dallas' next 3 - vs Tampa,  vs Detroit then @ Philadelphia.  Jerry will probably find an opportunity for Romo in that string of games.

Some other observations ...

  • Miami, Tennessee & Houston are making claims in the AFC and any of those 3 teams are genuine chances to advance
  • The Broncos might be in trouble - next 3 ... vs Pats,  @ KC,  vs Oakland
  • Pittsburgh are starting to hit their straps - the Ravens can't afford to slip back too far (they play against one another in 2 weeks)
  • The Vikes & Packers stay alive but both teams will need help if either are to advance ... the teams meet each other in week 16.
  • The Giants defence is A1 and they're a real smoky especially if Eli can find his best form
  • Washington & Tampa continue to win games - both teams are realistic wild-card chances ... the Falcons should now win the NFC West with their run home.  Atlanta might even snare the 2 seed.
  • Detroit's next 2 will tell us how good they might be - @ Giants,  @ Dallas.  They can wrap up the NFC North if they win both.
  • Regardless of today's result, Seattle should still be able to secure the 2 seed - next 3 ... vs Rams,  vs Arizona then @ 49ers.  They just had a bad day today and ran into a hot Green Bay.

Once again I can see the vikes at Green Bay for a playoff spot. It's all Detroit's fault 8 times they have been down in the last quarter and come back to win.

We definitely need the Giants to beat Detroit this week ... that's apart from both of our teams needing to win this week as well.  We're running out of games otherwise. 

I reckon all 3 games involving the 3 contenders will be close anyway. 

Is it just me or has this season been all over the place?

normally by now there are loses of teams that have clinched their division.

 

no one willing to bet on the Rams for an upset today... Ha ha

Yeah your not wrong, apart from the NFC East (although Giants, Redskins in the WC race) & NFC West & AFC East (Miami still in WC race too) all the divisons are in a tight battle, I was quiet confident when we had a 3 game lead on the Bucs... All of a sudden if we drop 1 of the 2 remaining divison games & the bucs win both the win it. I love this time of year though, on holidays, can watch lots of games & if your in thw playoff race watching other games which have a bearing on your side

On the Rams, they have the wood on seattle & Fishers gone.. Who knows, I'll be rooting for the Rams in the chance we could sneak the #2 seed from Seattle or Lions 

Edited by JV7

I must admit ive been on the buccs bandwagon for a while. I'll be happy if they make the playoffs. But I did think they would not catch the falcons and thought they would get in as a wildcard. 

Just did the ESPN play off calculator. This is my predictions:

AFC 

New England - #1 seed

Kansas City - #2 seed

Wild Card Week: 

Denver #6 seed @ Pittsburgh #3 seed

Oakland #5 seed @ Houston #4 seed

NFC 

Dallas - #1 seed

Seattle - #2 seed

Wild Card Week: 

NY Giants #6 seed @ Atlanta #3 seed

Washington #5 seed @ Green bay #4 seed

Our own mistakes are killing us. 

Not getting the yrd on 4th and 1, fake punt in our own 40.

Missed throw behind a player with no one wothin 10yrds in the end zone.

Backing seattle up in their own 10 and letting them get 29 yrds on 3rd down and long. Penalty for holding 5 yrds from their td.  We go in 3-10 and tbh we have had the better scoring chances.

I hope we get these mistake out and really push Seattle. We need to buy in a WR next year. Britt is doing well but we need a star WR to help Goff, Britt and Gurley.


Terrible call!!! That's an interception all day long which then coats us a TD. All the 50/50 calls have gone in seattles favour.

They always do in Seattle :rolleyes:

Tbh, the most frustrating thing on the night was the simple mistakes. And on the first two drives, it killed us and any hope of getting momentum. The D was pretty good all day and really kept us in it innthe first half before getting tired.

Here's my outcome ... (I've got both Green Bay & Denver missing out)

AFC

New England - #1 seed

Kansas City - # 2 seed

Wild Card Week:

Miami #6 seed @ Pittsburgh #3 seed

Oakland #5 seed @ Houston #4 seed

NFC

Dallas - #1 seed

Seattle - #2 seed

Wild Card Week:

Washington #6 seed @ Atlanta #3 seed

NY Giants #5 seed @ Detroit #4 seed

There are a lot of variables though ... if any of Tampa, Green Bay, Baltimore, Denver or Tennessee can snag 1 more win against my projections, then any of those teams can make the play-offs.  The Panthers can have a big say in things in the NFC West as they play both Atlanta & Tampa.

One thing that is almost guaranteed is that week 17 will decide a lot of outcomes.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
