    Stafford passes Dan Marino into outright 9th all time completed passes made.

    For all the fools that have said he isn’t that good nor should be a first ballot HoF QB….

    EAT A GIANT BAG OF THEM!

    Nice win by the Rams today, bad call at the end but realistically would it have mattered? Vikings hadn't scored a TD since 1st quarter and had to go the entire field with about 1 min 40s and no timeouts. Not impossible but unlikely

    Rams with Nakua and Kupp back are a whole different ballgame, NFC West up for grabs and they hold a tiebreaker over SF already.

    All these people picking the Jets, you crazy. I mean we should win running away with it but I've watched too many Jets games to get too confident. In fact this has the makings of a Drake Maye breakout game just to officially kill our season off and add to the misery of Jets fans everywhere thinking the Pats have found a QB already.

    Hahahahahaha what did I say? This franchise is a [censored] clown show, I don't know how you ever fix this, send them to England, London Jets has a good ring to it (nice Red Dwarf reference too).

    Browns beat Ravens...

    wow

    With a 2nd string QB (Jameis Winston) ... but to be fair to Jameis, he had a fine game throwing 334 yards and 3 TD's (no interceptions)

    The Eagles look to be back in form as well

    Quite a few talking points in the NFC with Washington & Green Bay continuing to win (Love injured again but Malik Willis is a ready replacement)

    Although, Detroit are likely division winners in the NFC North ... Vikes, Packers and maybe the Bears playing for wild-card spots

    And any of the 4 teams in the NFC West could win that division with the Rams & Niners getting their starters back

    Atlanta have a great chance to win the NFC South with their next month to tell a story

    Winston should have been picked the play before the winning TD, Ravens player flat dropped it.

    Yeah sure and that dropped catch draws the focus ... but I see numerous dropped catches in every game 

    They are like free kicks in footy

    As an aside, are there ever any holding calls on a hail-mary?

    Of course, but when its at the end of the game its more of a focus. 
    But Winston flat balled out. Ravens offense is always decent but the run game was no where near as good and the Ravens D is the weak spot for the team.

    The focus should always be on the whole game 

    For instance, years ago a team was seemingly gifted a SB berth on the back of a bad call right at the end of the NFC Championship game

    But that same team copped a couple of bad calls in the first half

    Dropped catches should be a stat ... as should non-attempts!!  

    I'm damn sure the coaches would keep stats for those sorts of misses

    That wasn't a bad call, it was a good call :P

    And I agree with you, but its what we do.

    Ha ha!

    The yanks should get it right with their stats as what we see doesn't present the right picture

    Especially the dropped catch howlers!!  

    Where as Baseball goes the other way.  The stats in that sport are almost too meticulous!

    • 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.

    • 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.
