As for the Eagles, they are right in it despite not being at their absolute best today 

Philadelphia will be at home next week against the Rams, Vikes or Tampa (if Washington win today the Commanders will be at Detroit next week) 

The AFC match-ups are already decided ... Houston @ KC and the Ravens @ Buffalo

very tame. considering the bone jarring contact that's permissible (some huge hits in this game) seems strange to have penalties for nothing contact like that. 

Agree it’s not much but it’s unnecessary and he was well over the line, just dont do it.

Washington go for it on 4th and 2 instead of kicking the chip shot… dumb.

Yeah, but it's what they do and it can get them to where they want to get to

We see a ton of teams going for it on 4th down passing up the chance for a field goal these days with Detroit leading the way

The days of just automatically taking the 3 point option are long gone.  Also, on the road, in the playoffs, the road team are almost compelled to try and get TD's

I still vividly remember the Packers (McCarthy) continuously taking the 3 point option against Seattle in an NFC Championship game 10 years ago yet he had Rodgers at the helm. In my view it cost the team victory with his boring, conservative thinking

And a SB opportunity! 

The weird bit was that he (McCarthy) was usually all-in with Rodgers

In that game the Packers scored 5* x 3 field goals and only 1 TD whilst Seattle scored 4 x TD's

Packers @ Seattle Jan 15

I can fully understand the modern day thinking but more so when a team is on the road

And not every time, obviously

 

*On 2 occasions the ball was on the 3 yard line in that NFC Championship game

Washington should have had a PI in the end zone, wasn’t called, then a few plays later Mayfield coughs up the ball.

Washington finally get the TD ... they had enough chances!!

Mind you, the Tampa defence stood up amazingly well

3 points in it!

 

All here for the Commanders, get 1 yard, run the clock down and chip FG will win it. Can they get that yard?


Geez the pressure on the kicker is huge!

Doink's it in off the right hand upright!

So we now know that Washington go to Detroit next week 

And either the Rams or Vikes will be on the road to Philly

Washington can win if they can somehow curtail the Lions scoring power (but I don't like their chances)

And the Eagles match-up will be interesting, either way


Next Week's Schedule (AEDT)

Sun 8.30am  Texans @ KC (-8.5)

Sun 12.00pm Washington @ Detroit (-8.5)

Mon 7.00am  Rams/Vikings @ Eagles (???) 

Mon 10.30am  Ravens Buffalo (1.5)

Packers never really in it despite getting within 6 points

And the issues are overall (and that includes Jordan Love) ...  we beat the teams we should beat and then struggle against the better teams.  That's been the pattern the past 2 or 3 seasons

Still, that's still a lot better than being a cellar-dwellar but we're not a true contender ... maybe next year

I just don't think we were ever going to get the best version of Jordan Love this playoffs or the Packers for that matter. Those elbow injuries are no laughing matter, especially when you lose feeling in the throwing arm, nothing can replace rest in that situation. 

I can't decide whether it looked like Green Bay had hardly played together or had just played 3 days earlier in that game. Defense hung in but it got too much in the end. 

Plenty of positives, could use a corner and a pass rusher but have the cap room.

McCarthy and the Cowboys have gone separate ways

That was a fun 5 years..

@layzie Yeah not having feeling in your arm would be fun... 

I mean its nigh on the worst injury other than a thumb for a QB I reckon

100%

Especially if it's nerve related, you literally have to just wait to get the feeling back.

Love didn't look right but the Packers had the option of playing Willis

But in all reality, getting past a top outfit like the Eagles on their turf was always a tall order for a team like the Packers

In that situation you need a few things going your way like a pick 6 or recovering a fumble.  Or a magical play or 2, leading to a TD or 2

And none of that happened.  Scoring only 10 points told the story

But the Packers should at least know what they need to do to become a genuine contender

 

Great start by the Rams!!  

no nonsense first drive form the Rams. Their offence looks switched from the get go here

  • Welcome to Demonland: Steven King

    The Melbourne Football Club has selected a new coach for the 2026 season appointing Geelong Football Club assistant coach Steven King to the head role.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
