    Unless they miss the field goal ... 11 seconds to get 3 points for the Eagles if KC get the field goal

    8 seconds ... can't see the Eagles performing a miracle (but you never know)

    Eagles the best team but chiefs have the best QB. Very close one to call. Reckon a late field goal could decide it. 

    I wish I was a betting man.

    Great game. Mahomes is a rare talent. 

    Mahomes was magnificent, dodgy ankle and all.  He was in genuine pain but kept marching his team down the field.  Brady-like

    There's talk that Mahomes might eventually rival Brady as the best of all time

    But first he needs to catch Joe Montana who, up until 5 or 6 years ago, was regarded as the best

    But as great as Montana was, Brady has to be regarded as the best ever, especially with 7 x SB rings.  In a 32 team league, 7 SB wins is extraordinary!!  Played under great coaching of course (and with great teams)

    KC should get at least 1 or 2 more titles you'd imagine as Andy Reid always seems to get his team into contention.  And Mahomes is only 27 years old so another 8-10 years at his optimum?

    For me Brady isn’t even top 3, prob not even 5 QB’s if you go by talent in the position, he just won the most. 
     

    No one ever talks about how good the defence he had on the pats team was. They are always left behind. 
    Then add in The coach etc

    oh and the cheating.

    But he is to this day one of the best 5-8 hrs across the middle passers I’ve seen. And he had a mental toughness that will be hard to beat and a desire to win like no other.

    As a QB, he knew his limitations, and excelled at what he was good at. 
    Put Montana and Rice in the modern pass happy, protected game it is no and he would be next level on the greatness he was.

    Brady's greatest strength was his management of games.  No one else comes close and that is a rare talent

    It's like he was another coach actually playing.  Steven May x 5 or 10 in my view

    I'd agree with you on the rest but all things have to be taken into account including the biggie ... game management.  And he did it all well into his 40's.  The whole cheating aspect was over exaggerated too.  Mostly borne out of jealousy & envy

    Brady is the G.O.A.T,  Gorg.  In my humble opinion!

    If you have an opinion why be humble about it 🤣

    I’m blatantly biased. AD99 is the best for me, like Brady, he was too short, arm reach and hand size too small, proved them wrong to the point that he has done things on defence that interior linesman shouldn’t ever be able to do.

    Not to mention in a salary cap era too Macca. Brady is lapping everyone at this point. 

    Once you get into that rare mix of great coach and great QB, the special stuff happens!

    Well, you've got a point.  So I said it, so it must be true!! haha  ... forget the humility! 

    But if we're talking all time best, any position,  then the debate could go on for quite some time.  And Aaron Donald would certainly be in the conversation as his influence and great playing ability is immense

    How about Jerry Rice and his numbers?  1549 catches, 22,895 yards & 197 TD's (thanks google) ... and 10 first-team All-Pro lists

    Surprisingly, Brady only has 3 first-team All-Pro lists

    Aaron Donald has 6 first-team All-Pro lists

    Rice and Montana for me were next level. I watched them toy with the Rams for years and when it seemed over they replace him with Young who lost to the Rams like once.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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.
