Rams win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Give me Stafford over Darnold in a playoff pick'em any time. 

The Rams D was absolutely ferocious in the first half. Vikings interior line just couldn't handle what was coming, it felt like Donald was playing!

How far can they go? They'll likely be on the road for the duration so it could really bind them together.

Do you think Willis would have given you the best chance of winning Macca?

I'm afraid you're right about the Eagles though. They're a scary defense no matter who is at QB. 

Not really,  layz,  but Love wasn't 100%

Eagles win anyway and I reckon they can go all the way

But no game is a gimme.  A turnover or 2 in this sport can change the course of any game.  So the Rams next weekend are in with a shot, no doubt

He's quite mobile from what I've seen.

Plus Gemini AI in Dr Google seems to think it was a sure thing!

I think people have been a little hard on Darnold, he had no protection and they didn’t seem to call many short quick throws to help him.

AD was at the game too, so the D prob scared to play badly! 😂

The Minnesota tackles aren't but the work from the guards and centre was amongst the worst I've seen. When your QB is sacked 9 times there's something wrong.

Darnold has had a decent season and has proven himself for sure but for neutral tipping and betting purposes I'll take the other QB 🙂

Chiefs 13+

Lions 7-12

Eagles 7-12

Ravens 1 - 6 should be a beauty this game. I reckon the Lamar Jackson / Derrick Henry double act will be the difference.

I honestly think this game will be in the 1-6 category and a belter.

Saying its going to be cold and possibly snowing... 

We don't like the cold, let alone the snow :)

I read Stafford is 1-8 outdoors in the cold/snow, but as they writer also said, that was mostly with Detroit.

[Macca 17,079]

Buffalo is being listed at -7/-11 for the Sunday evening game (with snow showers)

Scoreline might be minimal!

Yes and we know what those seasons were like.

Peyton Manning is an undisputed legend but I remember so many big games in bad weather that he didn't perform in. It almost became an omen when the TV broadcast started and you'd see him warming up with the rain coming in sideways and cold as ice.

Chiefs 7-12

Lions 1-6

Bills 1-6

Do give the Commanders a real chance

[DemonDave 1,096]

[Macca 17,079]

Detroit 7-12

Eagles 1-6

KC 7-12

Bills 1-6

Bills/Ravens game to be decided by an error in the snow?!!?  Hard to split them otherwise

And the Rams are a real chance as is Washington (if the Commanders can somehow stifle Detroits offense) 

[Macca 17,079]

By the way, the 3 favoured home teams with either the Bills or Ravens combines for 30-1 if all taken at the 1-13 bracket

rubbish personal foul call against the texans turns a chiefs punt into a 1st down. Texans fuming and rightly so.

Texan defence playing well. 2 stops in the red zones to limit chiefs to field goals

[Gorgoroth 13,110]

And now another. Chiefs get the rub from the refs so much

[Gorgoroth 13,110]

Calling it now, who ever wins out of Buffalo or Ravens will smack the chiefs. With the refs help or not.
