I'm still nervous the Rams will move on from Stafford. 

If anything I'd rather stay with Stafford and be looking to stock pile some picks in the coming years that we might be able to trade for a higher pick to get a young QB.

I don't think they will move from Stafford. That would be a Raiders thing to do.

Really hope @Dappa Danis enjoying this. Great job mate.

Local lads Hall & Oates might be front & centre in those Philadelphia bars right now (just after 2am?!)

Dappa used to spend a bit of time in the States so he'll no doubt be celebrating hard!!!

Eagles 7-12

i actually think of Eagles win they prob do it by 14+

Good call, what a shocking performance by the Chiefs although the dominance of the Eagles D line just gave them nothing. Mahomes couldn't pull any tricks out of his sleeves though, just had absolutely nothing to give.

Congrats Philly, well deserved, can't believe Sirianni is a SB winning coach. Was a couple of losses from getting fired earlier in the year you'd think.

The front four of the eagles D were the Most Valuable People.

They were the most valuable people, most important players and very important persons

Donald Rumsford-like, layz

Not-noticed important players (the OL), barely noticed important people (the DL) and always noticed important persons (QB's, RB's, Andy Reid)

They probably had the best offensive line this year as well as the best D-line. Great example of building a team from the trenches.

The Eagles flew under the radar a trifle too ... Detroit & the NFC North, The Bills, Chiefs & Ravens in the AFC were often the main talking points

The final real pointer was the Eagles demolishing the up & coming Washington in the NFC Championship

And KC's luck ran out after so many narrow wins

But hey, isn't hindsight a wonderful thing!!

 

Josh Allen wins NFL MVP

Lamar Jackson a close up 2nd

Saquan Barkley a long way back in 3rd spot.  Yet his season definitely rivals Adrain Peterson & LaDanuan Tomlinson (who both won the award as RB's)

Could he have played any better? Averaging 142.7 yards per game

He's the main reason the Eagles got to the SB (in my view)

Funny enough the Rams got the closest to the eagles in the playoffs.

Gratz Macca!

It was all a bit anticlimactic (a bit like the actual SB!) but nevertheless, someone had to win the post season comp

More importantly, the regular season comp worked well with the changes in the points system ... kept everyone interested throughout, which is what we wanted

I might add, @Gorgoroth

The new regular season tipping comp points system, designed by you !!

Next year will be the 13th NFL tipping comp ... time flies hey!!

Now for the footy season and the Mighty Demons!  (I'm quietly confident we will at least play finals because if our list stays relatively healthy, we should get to at least 13 wins) 

Edited by Macca

13 years... man how time flies.

My Physio who I saw yesterday was talking about here time in Milwaukee working with the buck and how crazy the tow got when the packers were playing. said she had never seen the likes.

 

Combine, then draft and the trades, soo enough its September and the season is off and running again!

It's funny isn't it.

Wisconsin is undoubtedly a football state. Basketball has a solid following there with the Bucks and Badgers but football is definitely king.

I did think of getting an American footy for the winners to sign and keep for the year

But getting people together is problematical ... maybe Crown on a Sunday during the playoffs?  Week 2 of the playoffs

Bring a mate or 2?  I've got 3 or 4 mates who have a keen interest in the NFL

Worth a try, would take the DL NFL tipping group to a whole new level!

Rams have given Stafford permission to seek a trade... Flub me.

Yeah what's going on?

Raiders very interested.

So I'm hearing that both want for Stafford to stay and Stafford will accept under the $50m he wants to stay in LA. But they need to come to this arrangement.

But Raiders and Giants are coming hard, but would he leave for a little more money and go to a team rebuilding? 

If he does go, Rodgers is keen to play for LA and would be cheap so the Rams might be thinking, let stafford walk, get picks, have Rodgers at QB for a year or two and see what happens, trade up, not this draft but the next and get a QB then as the QB class is not great going by the experts.

Interesting two weeks coming up I reckon.

Can Rodgers really give the Rams much more than Stafford at this point of his career. It would have to be based around a cap saving surely but I just think why go through the whole new QB and learning a new playbook thing if you don't have to just yet?

Much cheaper and I heard that Rodgers last 9 games or so were rated up there with the best in the league.

We have also hired his old QB coach as ours has been promoted to another team iirc and I honestly think he could easily lay out playbook after being in Green bay.
Rodgers has praised McVay multiple times over the years too.

  • 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.

    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?
