just watched the cowboys highlights. 

Conceding 44 points is a whooping. Dallas D carved up. Saints ran the ball at will and Carr had all day in the pocket. Zimmer with lots of work to do.

    Well Any Given Sunday was in full flight today… Some big upsets! 
     

    Have a strange feeling my Falcons will keep the trend going in Philly tomorrow…

    Just watched the PI on Cinci in the last minute.  Different rules in American football but there didn't seem to be a lot in it

    I've seen a lot worse not paid (and vice-versa)

    If Kirk Cousins can find his best form you're at least a chance of competing well

    The Eagles are a good team though.  Error free and you can match them (easier said than done)

    I knew I should've put the Saints. I was almost going to, that is the level of confidence I have in these Cowboys 🤣

    It seems like Alvin Kamara has been around for well over a decade but he's only in his 8th year.  Certainly had a day out with 4 TD's and big yards

    So Nacua looks like a 5-7 injury now, Kupp, John Johnso and Jonah Jackson all got injured and looks to be missing "an Extended time" I think thats coach speak for 4+ weeks

    So lose our best WR, another G and our most experienced Safety after being slaughtered... 

     

    EEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

    Don’t even get me started with the crud that was served up yesterday. The only thing worse than rocking up on Monday after losing to the Weagles in Perth this year is rocking up after losing to SAM FREAKING DARNOLD! No-one at work follows NFL so no-one has actually said anything but you can imagine what it would be like if they did. 

    Kyle, Kyle. You’re a decent coach, apparently an offensive mastermind, but take away the play action and you’re not left with many ideas. No CMC is absolutely killing us, Mason has been great running between the tackles but Minnesota stacked the box repeatedly and snuffed this out. No McCaffrey means no outside runs, minimal play action, no sneaky routes into the flat and as a result, no receivers getting open. 

    Even without CMC, Kyle has two of the highest paid receivers, a great TE, a half decent power RB, a future hall of fame LT and we still can’t beat the Vikes with Sam Darnold? A very good coach but has been and continues to be overrated in my eyes.

    And on that I'm glad we paid Aiuik 30m to run around unsighted. Perfect example of someone who cannot get open without McCaffrey in the team, very little shake and bake when it comes to man coverage.

    So rumour of Deebo being out this week too, but thats ok you are playing the Rams who are worse than you 😄

     

    Add to this list Higbee who is out most of the year, so essentially 7 of our best 11 on offence are out. 😢

    Yeah he'll be out for a couple. Another who the offense struggles without when he motions.

    Honestly think this game could be a coin flip Gorg.

    One more thing I'd like to add.

    Thank you gentlemen for helping me get my head out of footy. I feel exhausted with all the drama from the last 4 weeks. 

    Feels nice not to feel the urge of scrolling down all the current threads.

    How 'bout them Cowboys!

    Could be, but your D is very good, ours is poor, but in saying that its in LA and Verse has looked very good in his first two games. Just young and without AD99 we look shaky across the board😄

    Good first half, Falcons run game looks very good, Eagles Run game good too.

    Hope it opens up a bit more scoring wise for the second half.

    Falcons are moving the ball well but once in the final 10 they cant get it home and keep settling for FG's

    Barkley dropped the game!

     

    Eagles just didn't bother with playing D in the last 2 mins.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … 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 club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — 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.  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.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
