Wow. Flacco. 5 TDs in the first half. Still plenty fo time left in second quarter too.

 

Redzone would be a treat to watch right now.. Nail biters everywhere

Oh wow Green Bay. What a finish. And that makes it 3/3 for Dappa Dan.

Holy crap Cinci.

GMMM... Good point, however, they USUALLY put on Denver. And as much as they're like the Hawks of the NFL.... a good advertisement for the game... I'm dead set bored of them.

Oh yeah no interest in Denver smashing the Jets, it was Seattle (who are also like the Hawks in more ways than one) who I wanted to see because whilst I'm sick of them as well I thought Dallas might serve up a big game against them. And they did.

Anyway Washington Arizona hasn't been too bad but its felt inevitable for a while. Cousins throws too many picks.

Bears win, offense found some rhythm and defense despite missing out 4 best LB's and holding the falcons offense so that makes me happy.

And I got a point. GB and San Diego both made it hard work but the point is scored!


That's a huge win for Dallas ... in terms of the actual win and the confidence that comes from it. Maybe they are the real deal? ... the implosion might come in the playoffs however :)

Points galore to allocate in the comp but Dappa is still the clubhouse leader - I'll tally it up after tomorrow's game.

Gee things are hotting up in NFC East.

What a fizzer your game turned out to be ... first Monday I've had freed up for ages and the Giants decide to not turn up.

I doubt many were predicting that the 3 teams with the best record after 6 games would be the Chargers, Dallas & the Eagles ... maybe the Eagles but the other 2?

 

I've been telling everyone within ear shot that Dallas would be horrible this year. I obviously know nothing.

Not for me it wasn't lol.


I'm a broken man... The same helpless, frustrated, depressing, angry feelings that I suffer march to September each year has now turned to a full year round feeling

It's all good mate. Vikings haven't scored a TD in 3 weeks. It can turn around and the advantage of NFL is you only have 16 games to suck or succeed. Once Minnesota games are finished I actually enjoy watching any game of NFL. It's the only time I don't scream at the TV. I just kick back and watch some very entertaining games. I don't really do that when our footy season is on.

I'm the same, Cowboy. I'm so used to KC being decent once every 4 years and rancid in between that I've just always enjoyed watching any game. Also, the fact that we are rarely on TV has contributed to this.

It's what got me started on this thread. Unlike AFL with it's appalling admin... The NFL has the entertainment aspect down pat. I love the storylines and even have genuine soft spots for other clubs.

I watched the Cowboys/Seahawks game and it was a pretty good game to watch, Cowboys D was excellent, especially against the run. iirc Seattle only got 6 yards from beast and the other running back in the first half.

I gotta tell ya. This Davis kid can play.

Kap is like the Ablett of the NFL... in that he can't be tackled.

St. Louis throwback uniforms are awesome.

All games are presented very well and a NFL games looks so much better on TV then the standard definition crap we have. I don't have a real solid hatred for any team. I get a kick out of seeing Dallas die off at the end of the year and the jets are good for a laugh. With so many games they aren't all the same either. Watching a eagles game is different to watching a Seattle game. I'm even a fan of Aaron Rodgers. He destroys us every year but it's a bit like watching Ablett play.

Yeah I agree. There's players you just tune in to watch, much more than AFL. Shady I think is one. Petersen when he's not busy looking for his switch and smoking dope. And to be honest the reason I'm into the NFL is about 50% Eagles (I traded following Eagles and Philles in the NFL and MLB to my mate if he followed the demons and Aussie cricket team)... and 50% Mike Vick. He's still the most fun NFL player I've watched.

I actually prefer Rogers to Manning. Manning is the best, but there's something dull about how he plays. Maybe it's cos I can't read what he's doing as well as someone who grew up with Grid Iron. He's more an intellectual fan favourite.

So all the NFL fans in here who bet.... where do you go to make complicated bets?... For example, I wanna find out how much they're paying for both Eagles and Cowgirls to go 12-4 or better?

*Shock, Horror* ... everyone picked up a point in the comp - a remarkable turn of events.

Points tally ...

2 - Dappa Dan

1 - JV7, Go the Biff, cowboy_from_hell, pantaloons, Gorgoroth, Georgiou R. R. Martin, Macca

0 - Anyone else who fancies their chances

Week 7 games

  • Author

Tough week this week.

Cards, Browns, Hawks

 

Bloody niners...

I like Davis, I think he is good, but when things start going against us, he doesnt step up and take control, I hope he learns that over the year cos if he does he could be a high quality QB.

Our D is poo!!!! Absolute Poo!!!!

Gone from the best to so pisspoor it's horrible to watch, we get leads and then the D makes stupid mistakes and then they get a run on and our O line collapses.

Fisher will be gone by week 14.

Getting in early... Saints, Seahawks, cardinals

  • 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.
