    Stafford passes Dan Marino into outright 9th all time completed passes made.

    For all the fools that have said he isn’t that good nor should be a first ballot HoF QB….

    EAT A GIANT BAG OF THEM!

    Nice win by the Rams today, bad call at the end but realistically would it have mattered? Vikings hadn't scored a TD since 1st quarter and had to go the entire field with about 1 min 40s and no timeouts. Not impossible but unlikely

    Rams with Nakua and Kupp back are a whole different ballgame, NFC West up for grabs and they hold a tiebreaker over SF already.

    All these people picking the Jets, you crazy. I mean we should win running away with it but I've watched too many Jets games to get too confident. In fact this has the makings of a Drake Maye breakout game just to officially kill our season off and add to the misery of Jets fans everywhere thinking the Pats have found a QB already.

    Hahahahahaha what did I say? This franchise is a [censored] clown show, I don't know how you ever fix this, send them to England, London Jets has a good ring to it (nice Red Dwarf reference too).

    Browns beat Ravens...

    wow

    With a 2nd string QB (Jameis Winston) ... but to be fair to Jameis, he had a fine game throwing 334 yards and 3 TD's (no interceptions)

    The Eagles look to be back in form as well

    Quite a few talking points in the NFC with Washington & Green Bay continuing to win (Love injured again but Malik Willis is a ready replacement)

    Although, Detroit are likely division winners in the NFC North ... Vikes, Packers and maybe the Bears playing for wild-card spots

    And any of the 4 teams in the NFC West could win that division with the Rams & Niners getting their starters back

    Atlanta have a great chance to win the NFC South with their next month to tell a story

    Winston should have been picked the play before the winning TD, Ravens player flat dropped it.

    Yeah sure and that dropped catch draws the focus ... but I see numerous dropped catches in every game 

    They are like free kicks in footy

    As an aside, are there ever any holding calls on a hail-mary?

    Of course, but when its at the end of the game its more of a focus. 
    But Winston flat balled out. Ravens offense is always decent but the run game was no where near as good and the Ravens D is the weak spot for the team.

    The focus should always be on the whole game 

    For instance, years ago a team was seemingly gifted a SB berth on the back of a bad call right at the end of the NFC Championship game

    But that same team copped a couple of bad calls in the first half

    Dropped catches should be a stat ... as should non-attempts!!  

    I'm damn sure the coaches would keep stats for those sorts of misses

    That wasn't a bad call, it was a good call :P

    And I agree with you, but its what we do.

    Ha ha!

    The yanks should get it right with their stats as what we see doesn't present the right picture

    Especially the dropped catch howlers!!  

    Where as Baseball goes the other way.  The stats in that sport are almost too meticulous!

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
