Yeah read that, who is the third string QB? call Kap? What other QBs are able to be signed? Massive loss for the niners.

Baker Mayfield released by Panthers, rams should claim him. Two reasons, he is better than what we have (not hard), but stops the niners from going for him ๐Ÿฅน

Whenever l'm about to interject and stake my claim for these things I read till the end and you have me covered!

One of the best rosters around and bam two QBs down. Happy to go with Purdy this week but not sure if it will last the season. Looking at who is available: Cam Newton, Baker Mayfield, maybe 40 y.o Ryan Fitzpatrick if you can pry him away from Amazon. Not real convinced any of them will fit the system.ย

Realistically the niners need a QB who can hand the ball off and get quick passes into the flat and a few yards down field reliably. Thatโ€™s your go, Deebo, Ayuik and McCaffrey do their work from there.ย 
Your D is still very good, the problem will come in Jan when you come across very good Dโ€™s but also with very good Oโ€™s. Then itโ€™s can you score enough and also keep their O off the field. Newton and Mayfield both can do this and Iโ€™d be surprised if either donโ€™t get a work out.

This is true but man I'd love to see Ayuik with a deep throwing QB. I also always felt Kyle held back because he didn't trust Jimmy throwing deep often, the only deepish plays we'd call would be throws to RBs or TEs. These are all nice to haves though, Numero uno is the underneath and shallow routes and getting it to the flat as you said.ย 

Newton's running would be handy but if Kyle intends to use him the way he was using Lance between the tackles it could be a short lived experiement, the guy is banged up enough as it is. Mayfield has undeniable potential but is a turnover king. Having said all of this I agree they should get workouts.

In a perfect world Fitzpatrick would be the best stop gap, actually in a perfect world you would give us a healthy Stafford for nothing.

Rams claim Mayfield who is flying tonight to LA and likely to start Thursday night.ย 
He is an upgrade on our back ups but not by much. But I did read if he signs with another team in the off season we can get a compensation pick. And as our first pick goes to Detroit there is no reason to not try and win.ย

I stand by what I said but there is a hint of jealousy now that this has happenedย ๐Ÿ˜

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... itโ€™s time to discuss this weekโ€™s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliverโ€™s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line โ€ฆ Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the clubโ€™s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the clubโ€™s perspective, and the teamโ€™s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarksonโ€™s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed โ€” roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.ย  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
