Good game today ... not fantastic but a good game all the same.  Newton seemed off with his throws all game but the Eagles D-Line and their run defense was immense.  Wentz was very impressive and Blount made a number of terrific carries. 

Thought the Eagles drive for their final TD was great ... that throw under extreme pressure early in the drive from Wentz to Hollins was 'Rodgers-like' - hemmed in at their own 19 yard line and facing up to a 3rd and 16 - that was the game clincher right there.  Clutch.  3 plays later the ball is in the end zone and the score is 28 - 16. 

The Panthers couldn't bridge the gap after that and never really looked like it either.

5 & 1 and the Eagles are flying.

I had nigh on given up when that pass went there. My thoughts on the game, Rams did well stifling their run and run pass option, but our offence just couldn’t finish. I couldn’t believe that hit

On the Rams!!!

Brave. I don't trust our ability against the run yet. It has been much better last two weeks but jags run it so well. 

Yeah ... but I am the world's worst tipster.

I thought about the Giants but they couldn't possibly win in Denver could they?  Detroit would have to be a realistic chance although their road form against quality opposition and/or against solid home teams is not good at all.

I thought about Detroit too.

Giants? You'd have balls of stainless steel to pick them.

Giants won’t even come close without Beckham, Marshall and looks like DRC being suspended, their D will suffer.

You think you were weak. How do you think I feel.

This is like my old reverse happiness. Tip against and if they lose, you get the going win. If they win you are too happy  to care about the tipping!

Deep regret in not doing my tips before TNF

Bucs I guess.

Was tempted to take Indy, I don't hate how they are playing as much as I should.

Massive news for the NFC and NFL in general. Broken collarbone for Rodgers. Blows the whole thing wide open.

Jags 14 points in the first then 3 for the rest of the game. Rodgers collarbone cost me the points this week.

I'd take him over Hundley but he has been black-banned.  Quite literally.

Geesus, I just finished watching the Atlanta game... Pretty much ready to pack it in for the season, we're not good enough but things could be worse (alluding to Rodgers @Macca) That is a huge blow... Philly are the favs for the NFC now surely!

Was that a serious question or are you trolling again?

Hey hey. I aint no troll.

And yes. I saw Hundley a couple of pre-seasons ago and thought he had the goods. I think you're suffering from the fact you're used to watching Rodgers or Favre running around. You have to lower your expectations now that you have mortals under centre.

I don't think the falcons will play like that again this year. Seattle are building nicely, and Dallas are unlucky not to be 3-2.

Beat the Skins next week, and the lid that's off will be vapourised.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
