One way traffic in Arizona so far this morning. Sounds like the Broncos have more fans than the home team.

It was like watching the Rams under Fisher...

    Hyde to Jags!

    Strange... sure their bac’ up is getting more yards on a lot less carries but that will change when he is the only back and in obvious carry situations that Hyde would have taken and for only a 5th round!!! Jags got a steal in my opinion.

    Agree, I think that's a big win for the Jags, given they know their offence stinks without Fournette so they need someone to be able to capably run the ball.

    Funny trade, signs a 3 year 15mil contract with the Browns and then he’s gone. Granted Chubb is performing better than expected.

    Very good get for the Jags. I think a power runner will suit them. As long as he stays healthy, can be injury prone.

    Looks like nearly everyone (possible everyone) is getting points this week. Barring a disaster in San Francisco.

    How about the end of the Dallas game? Crazy stuff with the snap penalty and the FG smashing into the upright. Made quite a noise too.

    A few great finishes actually... Ravens one blew me away. And the Browns one.

    Yeah,  there were a number of standout moments today ...

    • Titans going for the win instead of taking the game to overtime with a converted point after.  In such a tight division that decision was quite questionable.
    • Rams & KC careering away from the rest .. both look morals for the 1 seed in each conference.  Saints & Pats are close enough but the top 2 will need to start losing.
    • Eagles lose again ... 3 & 4 now and in a bit of trouble.  Panthers staged an excellent comeback though and they might be alright too.  Washington keep winning.
    • Vikings are well and truly back on track and they should take out the NFC North unless they slip up or unless the Packers can win against the odds in the next 5 weeks.
    • Chargers win again and go to 5 & 2.  They should be able to secure a wild-card but a division win will depend on KC slipping up.  With Mahomes playing lights-out as he is,  that's not likely

    Just finished watching the highlights, suicidal snap penalty. Pushing it back to a 52 yarder. Hits the upright, Cowboys lose, all is good in the world.

    By the way I’ve officially had enough of Cris Collinsworth. I will be watching all Sunday night games with the sound down from now on.

    Amari Cooper traded to the 'Boys. For a first round pick it seems.

    Really? I like those two.

    I miss Mike on MNF.

    Love Al. Used to not mind Cris but all I ever hear from him now is the following line:

    "Here's a guy who *insert point being made here*".

    I also miss Mike. Underrated.

    The browns found a new way to lose a game, I truly feel for their fans.

    I don't so much. They've got a lot to love about that team now. They're in much, much better shape already. I'll be watching them fondly over the next 3-5 years. Chubb taking over at RB a good move too. And I really like Mayfield.

    Very pleased with this as an Eagles fan. A bit worried about what it does against NFC East oppo this season, but he wasn't as big of a deal to the Eagles going forward as he would be to Cowboys. Howie offered a second rounder, which is as high as I'd have wanted him to go... With Alshon, Ertz and Agholor I don't think he'd have made enough of a difference. Force Cowboys to give up a first for him... I reckon everyone wins in this one. NFC East is a dumpster fire this year, but it got interesting, at least, with that signing.

    Just did a lazy ladder predictor. A bit too early probably, but I still like to get a rough idea... based solely on what we've seen so far...

    NFC:

    North: Green Bay win the Div over the Bears who get the wild card. Min a wasted season on 8-7-1

    South: Saints all the way 14-2.

    West: LA go 16-0 (they probably don't but it won't matter). Gurley to be rested for last 2 weeks. Seahawks get the other Wild card with 10-6. Redskins and Panthers probably the big challengers there.

    East: Eagles and Redskins are two months away from a week 17 fight for the NFC East crown. Winner goes through 9-7.

    AFC:

    North: Ravens clinch. Steelers get wild card. Or the other way round. Cincy struggle as the season goes.

    South: Houston will play Jax for the crown in week 17. I take Houston.

    East: Patriots... yawn...

    West: Arguably the best Div in football.. KC 13-3, Chargers 12-4 for the wild card.

    Hard to argue with that Dappa, except we won’t go 16-0

    we will drop a few games, have Packers, saints and. Chiefs in the coming weeks. Can’t see us winning them all.

    • 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.
