Rams, Eagles

As well as Clinto's Jags. 

As for the Packers & Falcons,  we won't be seeing a repeat of last year's NFC Championship match-up (unless a minor miracle occurs)

But as you said JV,  the Rams & Eagles are the standouts in the NFC ... the Saints & Vikes are both 6 & 2 as well and will take some pegging back.  The Panthers,  Seattle & Dallas are thereabouts but that loss by the Seahawks today could be costly.

I already was. you'll need to work on Gorg tho.

Actually... for all the fun Eagles fans are having right now... Check this out. Eagles are 8-1, Cowboys 5-3... Next week Eagles have the bye, while Cowboys should take care of Falcons. Then Eagles and 'boys play each other in Dallas. If they win that, Dallas will be 7-3 and Eagles 8-2... With Dallas holding the tiebreaker with superior division record. Basically a half game back. And that's all very plausible. They just beat KC... a feat the Eagles couldn't manage.

Crazy.

Yeah the Saints have surprised me a bit, you know with Brees that the offense will always be good enough but their D has been a lot better than expected and they'd now have to be favorites for the NFC South... Each and every week the Rams offense flourishes under Lafluer a bit of me gets angrier & angrier as to why we didn't appoint him our OC! 

Yeah seems those sides you mentioned are the ones to beat in the NFC. Yeah a  crucial lost at home by Seattle, I really don't rate them at all TBH

Wow. I'm still pretty scared of Seattle. For them to put together that many wins with basically no run game.

Cowboys are right back in it, even without Zeke. Rams are amazing. Vikings, if Bradford can come back and get good again... can beat anyone.

Seattle's next 4 will paint a clearer picture ... @ Arizona,  vs Atlanta,  @ 49ers and then vs the Eagles.  If they win 3 of those 4 they'll be sitting on a record of 8 & 4. 

Washington aren't a bad team either but they'll probably need to get to 10 wins just to have a chance at a wild-card.  At this stage I can see the 2 wild-cards coming out of the South,  East & West ... probably not the North unless Detroit get their act together. 

10 wins normally gets a spot but not always ... the Pats went 11 & 5 once and missed out completely.  It's happened a few times like that I believe.

Haven't really looked at the AFC closely but it's probably the same sort of story. 


Bloody happy with my Rams, but keeping a lid on it as we have a big few games coming up and the Seahawks just keep themselves in games with their D and Wilson is too good to keep quiet all game and as you constantly see, when their O fires they are usually within 10 points due to their D.

Eagles are just simply the team of the NFC.

You should be thanking McCarthy.  Detroit were never tested.

An example of what I'm talking about is the Eagles going after a RB in Ajayi ... they are obviously trying to get stronger in other areas apart from QB,  WR & defence. 

A really smart move by Philadelphia - the payoff could be huge.

 

A number of us have got some catching up to do but we're running out of weeks - however, there is a total of 13 points still available.

Surprised a lot of Philly people. Left tackle was what many of us wanted, to replace Peters. And Brown went to Seattle. Also thought we'd get middle Linebacker help as we're desperately thin there now. Ajayi though count for 1.5 mil over the next two seasons as he's on his rookie contract. So that's a pittance. He may only get a few years before his knees give out, but only a 4th rounder... It's massive, as you say.

Watching on the weekend, his pace and ability to cut has him ahead of Blount as a player. And he's better at pass catching and most importantly, blocking, too.

NFC North just got real.

Just quietly Gorg... Second week running with Eagles at 1 and Rams at 2 on the power rankings.

I don't have much money, but putting it on Rams and Eagles for NFC Championship game would probably pay well. Still a lot of people out there yet to discover the Wentz/Goff show. We are totally spoiled.

I was thinking of putting some $$$ on the rams but don't want to jinx us ?

1 point only on offer this week ... Pittsburgh & New England are the standouts whilst Seattle,  New Orleans & Minnesota are all favoured as well.

Going the soft options & finally getting on board for a Thursday game

Seattle

New England

Pittsburgh

was tempted to continue picking against my '49ers but the Giants ? That game is a Taliban beauty contest. Very hard to see a winner.

Yeah, I'm not betting for the same reason. I was actually thinking of putting money on the cowboys. Whatever way the NFC East works out. I win.

  • 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.
