Good game today ... not fantastic but a good game all the same.  Newton seemed off with his throws all game but the Eagles D-Line and their run defense was immense.  Wentz was very impressive and Blount made a number of terrific carries. 

Thought the Eagles drive for their final TD was great ... that throw under extreme pressure early in the drive from Wentz to Hollins was 'Rodgers-like' - hemmed in at their own 19 yard line and facing up to a 3rd and 16 - that was the game clincher right there.  Clutch.  3 plays later the ball is in the end zone and the score is 28 - 16. 

The Panthers couldn't bridge the gap after that and never really looked like it either.

5 & 1 and the Eagles are flying.

    Brave. I don't trust our ability against the run yet. It has been much better last two weeks but jags run it so well. 

    Yeah ... but I am the world's worst tipster.

    I thought about the Giants but they couldn't possibly win in Denver could they?  Detroit would have to be a realistic chance although their road form against quality opposition and/or against solid home teams is not good at all.

    I thought about Detroit too.

    Giants? You'd have balls of stainless steel to pick them.

    Giants won’t even come close without Beckham, Marshall and looks like DRC being suspended, their D will suffer.

    This is like my old reverse happiness. Tip against and if they lose, you get the going win. If they win you are too happy  to care about the tipping!

    Deep regret in not doing my tips before TNF

    Bucs I guess.

    Was tempted to take Indy, I don't hate how they are playing as much as I should.

    Jags 14 points in the first then 3 for the rest of the game. Rodgers collarbone cost me the points this week.

    Geesus, I just finished watching the Atlanta game... Pretty much ready to pack it in for the season, we're not good enough but things could be worse (alluding to Rodgers @Macca) That is a huge blow... Philly are the favs for the NFC now surely!

    Was that a serious question or are you trolling again?

    Hey hey. I aint no troll.

    And yes. I saw Hundley a couple of pre-seasons ago and thought he had the goods. I think you're suffering from the fact you're used to watching Rodgers or Favre running around. You have to lower your expectations now that you have mortals under centre.

    I don't think the falcons will play like that again this year. Seattle are building nicely, and Dallas are unlucky not to be 3-2.

    Beat the Skins next week, and the lid that's off will be vapourised.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
