Got my concerns over Darnold as a backup. Doesn't quite cut the mustard and I'm not just saying that after today.

    The Bills do have something to play for because if they win, they win their division!

    2 days ago there was a chance they were going to miss the playoffs altogether

    Amazing finish and of course if the Eagles had not have fallen in a hole, the leaderboard would have had a completely different look

    Those who tipped away from the Eagles were on the money.  The Jags losing put a few out as well

    A whole year of upset losses and this week was no different

    Jags stuff up cost me dearly.

    Cowboys won't take anything for granted against the packers next week although no Aaron Rodgers to torment them this time.

    Been a good game and Josh Allen is must viewing (mostly good with the odd, costly, unexpected error)

    Miami's defence has been very good in the red zone.  Leading 14-7 at the end of the 3rd quarter, I reckon they win

     

    Edit:  er ... special teams comes to the rescue!  Bills draw level!

    A wild game a week out from wild-card weekend

    Another costly dropped catch by Miami ... punted it away 4 in a row now

    Bills can put the game away with this drive (leading 21-14 with 5:28 left in the game)

    Edited by Macca

    Fantastic 2nd half from Josh Allen ... overall has thrown for 370 yards with 2 TD's, 2 interceptions, 1 fumble and has run for 69 yards

    1:17  left and Miami have got the ball back.  PI so Miami on the Bills 40 yard line (14-21 so they need a TD)

    Interception!!  Bills win the division

    Wild Card Weekend Schedule (AEDT)

    Sun 8.30am  Cleveland (-2) @ Houston (+2)

    Sun 12.00pm  Miami (+3) @ Kansas City (-3)

    Mon 5.00am  Pittsburgh (+9.5) @ Buffalo (-9.5)

    Mon 8.30am  Green Bay (+7) @ Dallas (-7)

    Mon  12.00pm LA Rams (+4) @ Detroit (-4)

    Tues  12.15pm Philadelphia (-2.5) @ Tampa Bay (+2.5)

    A really good selection of games with maybe Dallas and Pittsburgh being the only clear favourites

    So, if we get enough starters, we can have another post-season tipping comp

    Here's how it works ...

    Straight winners & margins (1-6, 7-13,  13+ or post up your scorelines)

    Week 1 ... 1 point per win plus 1 bonus point for each correct scoreline bracket

    Week 2 ... 2 points per win plus 2 bonus points for each correct scoreline bracket

    Week 3 ... 3 points per win plus 3 bonus points for each correct scoreline bracket

    Week 5 ... 5 points for the SB win plus 5 points for the correct scoreline bracket

    You can use the above list of games (copy & paste) to post up your tips but don't forget to add a scoreline or points bracket (1-6,  7-12 or 13+)

    A 2nd chance at tipping glory without the arduous task of trying to find road winners!!

    I'll prompt up everyone tomorrow or Wednesday but feel free to go early on your tips

    I'll wrap up the regular season tipping comp soon enough but well done to Gonzo (winner) and those that finished on the podium (DemonDave, Gorgoroth & layzie)

    And thanks to all for your participation

    Be interesting, both sides got a little banged up, but I didn’t expect the rams to even get 6 wins so I’ll take a wild card spot.

    Yeah same

    A nothing to lose attitude can sometimes be good in terms of taking chances

    And the Packers definitely have to take risks to beat Dallas ... for instance, we can't be satisfied with 3 pointers at BigD.  Going to have to score 3 or 4 TD's to have any sort of chance.  As it stands, it's a big ask but you never know

    Dallas is a big ask but their crowd and town expect big things, so the pressure is right on them. 
    Love has proven enough this year but a good play off game vs a great D would give him and. The team huge confidence going into next year.

    Right now at this point in time I'm edging towards the Rams. Laporta is a huge out.

    Agree. I'm really impressed with Love this year. Good offensive coach, solid running game, a few reinforcements and they could be back with a bang.

    • 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.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • 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.
