@JV7  would have to be disappointed even though the win was there for the taking at the death.

As for the Eagles,  as Barassi once said when he coached us,  a win is a win is a win.  Bank the win and go to Tampa and hopefully advance to 2 & 0.

That's why I was happier post game. Pinched one I thought we could easily lose, especially with  5 goal line plays defended.

I'm relieved that Eagles have Bucs, Colts and Titans... the first two stink, and Titans aren't much better. Feels to me like a rusty squad needing to get things sorted. Also Wentz will be back after those 4. 

 

Oh,  and by the way,  we do it all again next week week with the NFL/Demons double.

Ravens @ Cinci then Demons vs Hawks - let's ride this one out right through September hey NFL fans?  It's novel,  but we're alive and kicking.

The other games in week 1 promises a bit though ...

  • 49ers @ Vikings
  • Texans @ Pats
  • Jags @ New York (Giants)
  • KC @ Chargers
  • Seattle @ Denver
  • Dallas @ Panthers
  • Bears @ Packers
  • Rams @ Oakland

There's no shortage in the NFL.

Every game there will have more to watch than today's.

We've had the same problems for years even in the SB run of 16' we were poor in tbe redzone. Ryan was so off last night, he seemed uneasy all night.

That final drive was like watching years playoff game, exactly the same. I'm not surprised by the result/performance, I don't hold great expectations of this Falcons side this season


Average game, Cox was immense as always. I got bored really quickly tbh but if I was a eagle you bank it, walk away and be happy that if Foles can keep the wins ticking over with some regularity then Wentz doesn’t have to be rushed in.

AFC East: New England
AFC North: Baltimore
AFC South: Houston
AFC West: Chargers
WC: Jacksonville
WC: Denver

NFC East: Philly
NFC North: GB
NFC: South: New Orleans
NFC West: San Francisco
WC: La Rams
WC: Minnesota

Saints over Texans in the SB.

 

I’m stuffed. Wish I had tomorrow off. Tomorrow night is usually reserved for all the footy shows to bask in our glory how I’m gonna sneak in a minimum 3 hr 49ers and Vikes game I’ll never know.

 

I already hate the the new helmet rule but more so the new rule of not landing your body weight on a QB. that hit on Rothelsberger was perfect, if Ben holds it that long h3 deserves the hit and the player who prob weighs half as much as Big Ben landing on him.

Bloody hell how about the Bucs.

Ummm.... Do we have a tie rule? lol

Oh no, Rodgers...

Wow. Lazarus.

Rodgers adds to the legend.

Looks like no points for anyone this week.

A lot of us picked the Steelers, right? Doesn't get much closer than that.

@Macca Where are you?!!!!

In shock!

That was some sort of comeback victory .... and as you said,  adds to the legend.   So many twists and turns including the Fuller dropped interception that could have ended it. 

To be honest,  once the injury happened (MCL perhaps but to what degree we don't know) all I could think of was long term.  But Rodgers has said that he will play next week.  

McCarthy was forced to play a conservative game-style and we looked quite effective because of it (apart from the 2 game-changing TD's)

The Bears played well,  especially early,  but couldn't finish it off.  It's going to be a dog-fight in the NFC North though,  all the same

Yeah just saw his post game presser. He said he'd have more answers on Wednesday, but that if he still feels ok he'll play.

Half time, with no news, and seeing his face as he was on the cart coming off, and seeing how Kizer was playing, it was season over for Packers... Now it's the complete opposite. I can't remember a game that had such wild swings in implications... from doom and gloom to the best comeback of his career (I think... in terms of score).

Rodgers just keeps doing these sorts of things but that was out of the box great.  But his lack of mobility helped the team advance the ball in a different way (quick,  short 5 - 7 yard passes that I have been advocating)

Loads of other highlights from the day of course ... but it's only week 1 - we'll know more in a month.   Washington,  KC,  Jags,  Ravens & Vikes the most impressive?  And Tampa won't be easy next week for your blokes.

Thursday night I was thinking 4-0 would look good. But my goodness, Tampa just smashed a team many have picked to play in the superbowl. Eagles spluttered too... Lots to play out here, and what was an easy win is now nothing like that.

Ravens and Vikes, yeah... Vikes everyone knew were good. Ravens looked awesome... But for me it's KC I was most impressed with. Second year QB playing like that. They look a bit scary.

As you know,  I'm an Andy Reid fan as he keeps getting his teams into contention.  KC keep racking up the wins and often fly under the radar.  Mahomes with 256 yards with 4 TD's and no interceptions at the Chargers is impressive.

A lot of the teams were all a bit rusty though ... as an example, Green Bay couldn't advance the ball with a fit Rodgers in the first half but did advance the ball with an injured Rodgers in the 2nd half.  Ravens are worth keeping an eye out for same for the Panthers.   Jury is out on Cinci but the Pats won as expected. 

The 2 games tomorrow are of high interest for all sorts of reasons.  The Rams @ Raiders game especially.  Gruden might have some surprises in store for us.  And such is the divisional implications in the NFC North I'll be barracking hard for the J.E.T.S tomorrow!  That's divisional football for you.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
