Although Watson's rushing TD was quite impressive though.   Don't know much about him but he looks like he can at least run well with the ball.

That was a good play. One of a very few that happened all game long.

    Yep.

    Looking ahead, Houston might win their division if Watson is decent.  They'd have a chance regardless as the AFC South is wide open.

    The D of both teams was very good. If the Texans get their players back their O might be decent enough.

    Yep ... and such is the nature of divisional football, a team can win a division, get hot at the business end and win the whole thing.

    We've seen it happen with the Steelers,  Giants,  Packers and 1 or 2 others. 

    For that reason alone, the sport is fascinating.  It's like following 8 different leagues within the 1 big league.  It's a great system.

    I feel like everyone will pick very similarly this week. I'll take Pats, Cards and Titans.

    Same as last week, I'm always looking at a point of difference, hence I liked th Vikes this week.

    WOO HOO! My first points of the year thanks to Arizona being marginally less terrible than Indi.

     

    Meanwhile. KC. Damn fine football team.

    Why do we not have a fantasy comp for players on here?

    Ah damn, I've forgotten to do this tipping thing for the first two weeks. Rookie move!

    We could do it Dappa ... maybe a designed system where we don't have to ever come back here and adjust our line-ups.  Just pick our players, lock 'em in and see how it pans out. 

    Here's a idea that I thought up ... we all pick 2 x QB's,  2 x WR's,  2 x RB's,  2 x Kickers,  2 x TE's & 2 x Defensive players.  Bur then, we only count the fantasy score of 1 of each pair of players.  This allows for injuries and such-like. 

    Others might have better ideas but the above idea could take less than an hour for participants and that's the extent of the time needed. 

    The time consuming bit would be for whoever runs it :ph34r:

    A few observations ...

    • Atlanta have bounced back and they're the team to beat in the NFC ... however,  the Panthers might push the Falcons especially if they at least split their 2 games against Atlanta. 
    • Order is restored with the Pats doing it easy in the big easy
    • The AFC West division could turn out to be a real battle - KC,  Denver & Oakland all look the goods whilst the Chargers can play spoiler.  Carr looks terrific and Reid's teams always compete well
    • Baltimore could push the Steelers all the way in the AFC North.  They look solid,  Pittsburgh the same
    • Jay Cutler gets a win for Miami - whooda-thunkit?
    • The Rams drop a game they could easily have won ... the NFC West could be a tight division with Seattle not looking all that impressive either.
    • Packers outplayed but again,  the Falcons came out firing and full credit to them.  The scoreboard flattered Green Bay in all honesty.
    • The Cowboys came down to earth with a thud although playing in Denver is nearly always tough.  Siemian continues to impress for the Broncos. 
    • For divisional purposes,  I'm hoping that Eli & the Giants can get it done tomorrow.

    Rams D was horrible against the run again, Wade will rectify this over the coming weeks I'm sure but we got smashed early. 

    I honestly think Goff is starting to look like a decent pick as QB. Kupp looks like a great pick as a WR, Gurley was back in form. After watching decent chunks of the game I think with another 10 odd games together we probably win that game. I think the changers. 4-3 to 3-4 is leaving bigger gaps we are not use to but will tighten up.

    Got the niners on Friday. Looking forward to a full game.

     

    Falcons looked good, but I'll disagree Macca, I don't think the panthers will be a serious threat after what I've seen.

    Seattle and cards look very average and Inthink our div is very very open.

    Raiders look bloody solid. 

    Broncos also look like a team to beat. Dismissed the Cowboys at times.

    shattered that Bradford missed the Vile's game, wouldn't have tipped them.

    Yeah Gorgo ... the Panthers have got a tough road schedule.  You're probably right.

    Tampa might be decent though ... they're getting talked up.

    Buccs looked great. I've always had a soft spot for them.

    Love how Beckham wants to be the highest paid player in the NFL. I wouldn't even have him the highest paid WR. Giants looked very poor on offence today, their D was solid enough especially without Jenkins.

    Losing your two starting tackles was always going to make life tough for Rodgers wasn't it.... Having said that he gave up 14 points with unlike Rodgers plays, that interception he threw right on the half and the forced fumble (which was line ball) whether those mistakes were due to the pressure he felt with the makeshift O-Line or not.. I'm okay with how we are looking, I honestly find myself in some sort of feeling nothing, is this what it's like to following a side when winning more games then not ? Or I just may be been reserved after what happened last season...

    Falcons were always going to be a weird one really season as no one knew how badly the loss last year scared them. Panthers wwent to a heap after their loss.

    The Panthers are a weird one. I wasn't that impressed with them in week 1. They may well have the most fierce defense around though and Luke Kuechly is back to his old self.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
