The leauge has moved the Bucs/Miami game to week 11.. Huge blow for both sides, following week 11 the Bucs now have 2 road games @ Atlanta and @ Green Bay... While Miami now come off MNF to Tampa, throw their London game in and their schedule got all that harder. Will definitely make making playoffs tougher

    Righto Macca, we'll see how long I last before I forget to put my tips in

    Let's start with

    Falcons

    Steelers

    (shudder) Eagles

    I have  the same issue GTB so I generally put the tips in early.

    I post up the lines (see below) as a reminder to myself!

    Here they are again seeing we're on a new page ...

    Wow. Eagles?

    I'm a fan, but jeez. I can't see us getting anywhere near Giants or Cowboys... and probably struggling against Skins TBH.

    Cowboys most likely lose Elliott for 6 weeks which sends their offense back to earth and their defense is ordinary. They aren't better than a 10 win team. Giants defense is legit but their offense can't run the ball or protect Eli, again, they shouldn't win more than 10 games. Eagles have a chance to be very good on both sides of the ball if the additions at corner and WR work out.

    Do give my Jags a chance this week as long as Bortles isn't actually killed by Watt or Clowney. Interested to see how Fournette goes in his first game.

    Every morning I get up and look to see if Donald is back, every day I cry. 

    I truly have no freaking idea where the Rams will end up.

    Anyone give KC a chance tomorrow?

    I'd like nothing better than to see the Pats get beaten but I can't see it.  Hope it's close at least.

    TBH Macca I do. First games throw up strange matches and I think KC have some decent weapons, no Edelson for Pats is huge.

    All I can think about is Belichick and what new game-winning idea he comes through with.  Andy Reid's teams are nearly always in the contest though so it could be a close one.

    A big night of sport tomorrow night ... Footy,  NRL & NFL.

    KC defence looked like they had 2 players less than the Pats. Brady found wide open players without even trying.

    Nothing I've seen in the first half has convinced me that the pats won't be a force, even without Edelmen.

    Chiefs are doing well but pats seem to be in 3rd gear.

    KC have dialled it up to 11! Hunt has been huge. Pats need to do well a... pats to get them outta this.

    I gave them (KC) a chance today... but wow, just wow.

    I listened to the game (on & off) but that is an impressive win.  They were saying that the Pats have only lost 6 home games in 10 years and only 1 of those 6 was an AFC team.

    Was a good game to watch, Pats started on fire, but KC jus hung in their, the. They blew them away second half. Few injuries to both teams by the end.

    Ended up watching extended highlights and the Chiefs were great.  Alex Smith's best game?  Kareem Hunt had some sort of game too.

    Smith looked great. I think he is a solid QB. Hunt was Immense, especially after fumbling his first ever carry, he didn't drop his bundle but bucked up and got going.

    All sensible (except for the 6 games part. Seems he's playing the year now).

    I reckon though it's a more-or-less league-wide opinion that while Zeke is good, it's the OL that makes this team. They made two rookies of the year in Dak and Zeke. If they're all there, fit and playing... then I don't think it matters who they give it to. personally I have Boys at 12-4... possibly 14-2... at WORST 10-6 as you say, on the strength of that OL and Dak. Also I think their D will improve a lot. They've put a lot of work into it. Lee is still there, Lawrence, Taco. They've snuck up on us.

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • 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.
