Good hold by the D.

Super nervous now, we are trying to be cute with throws when Gurley should be given that ball.

    Can’t plan for it hitting the foot like that. Thought Peterson had recovered then realised it had squirmed out again... sigh

    Both D's playing very well ... turnovers,  fumbles could decide this game.  Atlanta's running game not there and the Rams need to use Gurley more.

    If we don’t put a drive together on this next series we won’t win, this is how we went vs a few teams this year where we didn’t get going in the first quarter and floundered the rest of the game and it looks mightily similar to that early Seattle game. 

    Falcons are starting to move it a little, we have missed Ryan a few times now and he is making his throws, starting to look comfortable which worries the hell outta me.

    Wow 2 muffed returns in the first ... We need a TD here, got to take full advantage of thess turnovers

    Cooper looked like he had no idea what to do when fielding that punt then. Normally he picks a line and goes, he looked like a deer in headlights there.

    Thank god for Donald and Brockers.

    Ryan has done well to hang on to the ball - they've come at him hard.

    This field is horrible. Both sides slipping everywhere

    Why they replaced it always seems bizarre. It’s never good. Ever.

    Good fight back from my boys.

    Smith goes now. Question for me is what sort of pressure now goes onto Andy Reid. They go on these great runs, then slumps way too often.

    Philly fans smiling a little smile...

    I saw Freeman early in the game take off to the sideline, pushed out, and a couple of metres over the line is a slab  of concrete that he slipped A over T on. It boggles the mind.

    Had 3 opportunities to force a kick and Falcons have got the first down. Gotta hold them to a FG. gotta keep it under one score.

    Was just writing how good the secondary from Atlanta have been, then Wood makes a great catch.

    Atlanta held on to the ball for 26 plays in that 3rd quarter ... playoff experience at work.

    Gurley g3ts us going, That sack cost us a shot at the end zone, got the game back to single score. Need to force a turn over or a quick out, cant let them take it up field and use clock.

    So my thoughts on today’s game.

    Pretty much everything that worried m happened.

    Atlantas secondary were huge, the open field tackling was excellent.

    Ryan was pretty good without being great. Played a little safe at times. But when the clutch plays were needed the good players stepped up. Ryan, Julio, Sanu.

    to my Rams, Donald was amazing, Brockers until injured was also very good. Really hurt losing him.

    Gurley was decent, but dropped so many catches. Woods good, same as Kupp. O line decent. 

    Goff was pretty good in that he didn’t panic, hasn’t done stupid things and I think the experience today will set him up for next year. 

    McVay I think today was average. Hardly called screens and did not run Gurley enough. He needs to learn from today and from all losses he has so far.

    Special teams are usually a strength but they cost us the first 10 points and realistically the game. Cooper has been amazing all year but terrible today and that’s being nice.

     

    Falcons can go to the championship game, Philly would not want the Falcons.

    Good year overall for the Rams, disappointing night.

    good luck JV7.

    Hard luck Gorg... You are right though, have to be happy with the improvements made in year 1 under McVay,  the future is bright. I think the experience helped the Falcons & like Macca said they controlled TOP. Quinn gets the D playing right at the right time of year again. A foles lead Philly next opens it up a bit

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
