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.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
