Early indications are we got our first two picks right 

A comparison...

Jared Verse: 74 pass rush snaps, 16 QB pressures, 18% rate of pressures, 5 quick pressures

Micah Parsons: 110 pass rush snaps, 20 QB pressures, 17.5% rate of pressures, 6 quick pressures

 

A comparison...

Braden Fiske: 87 pass rush snaps, 14 pressures, 15.9% pressures, 4 quick pressures

Maxx Crosby: 100 pass rush snaps, 12 pressures, 11.7% pressures, 5 quick pressures

 

I know it's early but that's good company to be trending with. And yes they other teams will scheme for for those two stars but it's the tuft of grass on the cliff I'm holding on to 😂

    Atlanta wins!

    The Bucs were always winning until they weren't!

    No idea how we won that game… I turned it off after the missed conversion on 4th & 15 with a minute to go only to turn it back on to see it going into OT! 504 yards & 4 TDs for Kirk

    The 3 Lead-pipe locks all failed to salute unless we did a Seinfeld and went the opposite!

    So shove that idea!!

    Yeah last week was pretty diabolical for my tipping. This week not much better, I'd go Steelers as my lock with Parsons and Lawrence both out and you just know Sal having to front up for Guess The Lines straight after means a loss for the Cowboys.

    Don't see how Giants cover either with Malik Nabers unlikely so Seattle also a good bet even though they're giving a lot of points. And while the London games always throw up funny results I don't see how the Jets O-line withstands Flores' Vikings D. Jefferson, Addison and Nailor three decent receivers which we'll find it hard to cover too, only saving grace for the Jets is Darnold turns back into a pumpkin but more likely he gives an FU performance.

    Big miss by the refs at the end, Buccs should have had a facemask. But that's the game.

    Holding at the line of scrimmage occurs first.

    Colts, Packers, Ravens 

    Jets & Vikings on at 12.30am ... if I wasn't working I'd be tempted to do an all-nighter

    Oh for the days when I could just take Monday's off! Probably get through the first half of the Jets/Vikes game though

    SNF & MNF are good match-ups this week

    Wrong fred.

    If you could ever get your head around a sport where gaining 2 or 3 yards in territory is often seem as a huge positive, then the NFL might be your go, ET

    It's certainly an acquired taste and it can take years to fully appreciate.  But as slow as the sport can look, each play is unique and is hard to predict

    And any sort of score can come from nowhere.  No 2 games are alike as well

    The sport is way less violent these days but players will still use their helmet as weapons

    And the Quarterbacks are well protected!!

    Tell me it’s more exciting than NRL? At least more athletic? I’m definitely willing to give it a try, would be good to get into a different/another sport. I only watch AFL and the NBA.

    I'd be happy even just with Monday  mornings off

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
