Was bound to leave for a HC job. I do worry about the Lions. As a team gets more expensive you either need an elite coach or an elite QB. I think Dan Campbell has done an amazing job and seems to be a great man manager but I do feel a lot of his success is down to his coordinators. Jared Goff has had a great season and is definitely in the good QB category. I would not say elite though. Will be interesting to see what off-season they have.

Me too. Hopefully they can do this halftime show again.

He must feel sick to the stomach right now. Clever play call but his foot slipped just before the catch attempt, you just gotta catch those! I'm on the Bills now for the duration, hopefully 4th or 5th time lucky against those filthy stinking Chiefs!

You're both correct.

Pass intended for Nacua incomplete, game over. Great heart shown by the Rams to fight till the end.

Huge play from Nacua. Game is well and truly on!

2 minute drill coming up. Lots of soft zone coverage to be expected.

Turner in with a massive sack! 3rd and 19!

2:48 left, all 3 timeouts remaining. DON'T GIVE UP GORG!!

BAM! Parkinson through the middle TD.

Into the red zone, come on!!

Hopefully Rams score on this drive to make it interesting.

Gonna be difficult from here but both teams still have all 3 timeouts. Edit: Nek minnit Saquon goes 78 yards to the house.

It's that kind of game, execution won't be easy.

Firstly, welcome back! Secondly, I agree wholeheartedly.

I'm looking forward to when Freo are bursting at the cap seams.

I think you're right and that repeat speed is the thing I've been most impressed with. I haven't seen enough of his ability in front of goal but I think there is more than enough there to be a menacing pressure man.

This game is probably going to come down to yards on the ground. Eagles lead despite having 25 passing yards.

Fair observation. More often than not at least 1 one seed team makes the superbowl each year so it does help to get that rest in especially if you're an older or banged up team. I also like the do or die nature of this playoff system where these games are the ones that you absolutely must perform in. Every now and then you do get some heartbreak stories like the Minnesota Vikings of 1998 who went 15-1 only to go down by 3 points in the NFC Championship game to the Falcons. A week off and home field advantage which would mean more in the NFL than AFL seems to be enough of an incentive I guess.

Thank god others feel the same. I felt like the world were all just becoming Kelcie-Swifty Mahomes losers and people not knowing anything about the sport jumping on the Chiefs train etc.

Yes and we know what those seasons were like. Peyton Manning is an undisputed legend but I remember so many big games in bad weather that he didn't perform in. It almost became an omen when the TV broadcast started and you'd see him warming up with the rain coming in sideways and cold as ice.

Sounds like playing in that game scratches the go home itch enough, that's what I'm choosing to believe anyway. No need to leave the club.

I hate that place in the snow.

No surprises there with the already huge initial costs blowing out. No-one saw that coming 😜 Hardly an expert in this area but I find it hard to get my head around the AFL demanding that they build a stadium to a certain level in order to have a team but then impose big fines to the Tas government if not half completed by Oct 2027 and completed by the 2029 season. With the Tassie government capping their commitment at $375 million they're going to have to sell quite a bit of land..

Good prediction. Once he gets some kms in the tank he'll be ready to go.
