    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.

    Nah @Dr. Gonzo you got this! 10pt win coming up.

    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!

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
