Spare a thought for the poor old Miami Dolphins fans in the NFL.

After the completion of 16 rounds and the H&A season the Dolphins won 1 game  :o

Compare this to the New England Patriots who went 16-0 - yep didn't lose a game.

Derby County in the EPL has only won 1 game out of 21.
Currently they are on 7 points with 1 win and 4 draws and are on track
to eclipse Sunderland's record haul of 15 points for the entire season in 2005/06.

Just for the record Sunderland had 3 wins 6 draws and 29 losses in thier 38 game season list.

One of the reasons I'm glad we don't have 30 rounds. It's bad enough watching 22 games when Richmond has a horror year like last year.

Incredible effort by the Patriots btw. They're going for 4 Superbowl win in 6 years too.

They will MT now that the chokers in Indianapolis are out who were their greatest threat.
It will be a New England vs Green Bay Final pitting quarterback legend Brett Favre in his swansong against the incumbent no 1 if he already aint there in Tom Brady. In 1972 the Maimi Dolphins went undefeated in the season only to lose the superbowl. How cruel is that?Indianapolis have lost 7 games in 3 seasons yet only have 1 superbowl. Sport can be very very cruel.

Yep sport can be cruel. Learnt that in 1982  :P

If it turns out Patriots vs Packers then it could go down as one of the greatest Superbowls ever. The two greatest quarterbacks of the modern 21st century era go head to head. A promoter's dream. Brady would be going for his 4th Superbowl champion ring which would given him the record along with legendary quarterbacks Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw.

NY Giants Eli Manning can maybe emulate the achievement of his brother from last years superbowl (Peyton Manning) and be part of superbowl winning team. Although they have momentum and have beaten better credentialled opponents away from home the task seems too much. They came in having been ranked 6 and beat Tampa Bay , no 1 ranked NFC Dallas and no 2 ranked Green Bay. Having said this I still think New England will romp home but only two years ago the Pittsburgh Steelers won the superbowl having been the 6th ranked team in the AFC going into the playoffs so it has been done before although the AFC is much much stronger than the NFC, but nevertheless good luck to Giants. They will need it.
I merely envy the week off the competing superbowl teams get in some tropical paradise relaxing with bikini clad girls all around them attending all their needs both mental and of course physical. :cheers Some blokes have all the luck :thumbsup
You would think that these sort of distractions in the week leading up to the biggest game of the year would have an adverse effect on the players. :rollin :lol :rollin

The Giants have supposedly won something like 10 straight away games :o but yeah it would be a massive upset if they were to beat New England. Manning at least can say he led his team to the Superbowl 5 years sooner than his brother did.

Not a real fan of NFL but been following the games on Ch 10's HD channel. Ben Graham should buy a lotto ticket. Dumped then reinstated then dumped again by his former team before getting picked up by Arizona at the last minute and now he is one game away from playing in the Superbowl.  If Phillie wins this morning (Sav Rocca's team) then we'll have both punters in the NFC game next week being former AFL players with the winner heading to the Superbowl.

Could be a Pennsylvania derby in the superbowl with Pittsburgh playing off with Baltimore for the AFC title and Philly away to Arizona for the AFC.
Personally I think Pittsburgh who incidently wear black and yellow and are my team will win the superbowl.
In 1980 Pittsburgh won the Superbowl and Richmond won the flag and even though the Steelers won in 2006 I'm hoping for a black and yellow double this year. :pray

Bad luck to Graham. Most of his punts were good. The Arizona defence gave away too many costly penalties while Pittsburgh was always able to pull out the big play or 1st down when they needed it. That interception right on half-time in the end cost the Cardinals the game.

Aussie punting invasion continues
Chris de Kretser | April 15, 2009 03:10pm

THE son of a former Richmond star is latest Australian to crack the world of NFL punting.

Jy Bond has been signed by the Miami Dolphins as a punter in America's National Football League.

Bond, 30, is the son of former Richmond premiership player and 3AW football commentator Graeme Bond.

He was drafted by Richmond under the father-son rule, but only played for the Tigers' reserves team.

He spent the past three years getting intensive punting training before moving to the US to try his luck.

There's even a hip hop song called funnily enough "black and yellow" with their fans waving their Y&B "terrible" towels. Some of the younger posters on BF want us to chant the chorus but they're kidding if they thing the AFL will allow those verse lyrics played over the PA at the 'G :nup.

Atlanta Falcons vs New York Giants

What a last round of the season proper. Bengals get into the playoffs without winning and probably playing the easiest team of all the teams in the playoffs..  Houston only limped into the playoffs losing their last 3 games and their QB with injury worries :clapping Although Houston's last win was against the Begals.

The quirks of the conference system make it tougher for Pittsburgh. They finished 12-4 but were pipped by Baltimore on head-to-head record in their division and so now Pittsburgh has to play away at Denver despite the Broncos far poorer 8-8 record.

Trying to think of any Aussie Rules draftee who like Tebow was a gun junior yet was written off by many experts/recruiters as far as playing at the pro level but comes in and is a major factor in his side making the finals in his debut season. The only one I can think of is Joel Selwood as some recruiters were concerned about his knees holding up in senior footy.

Experts wil say biggest upset of the 2011 NFL season

Does anyone else think USA media have blown Tim Tebow's religion and his one knee kneel praying style way over the top. I swear its getting more coverage then the games are that his actually playing.

They probably have but I don't think young Tim has helped matters. Now he actually seems to be milking it a fair bit. Granted in interviews it is usually being brought up by the media but when the media isn't asking about it he seems to bring up his religious beliefs all by himself.

NY have been very inconsisten this season. Their best is right up there with Eli Manning but they have also lost a few games to sides you'd expect a playoff bound side to beat. That's why they only just scraped into the playoffs.

Baltimore beat Houston so they travel to New England next week.

Brady and the Patriots are off to another Super Bowl after getting over Baltimore 23-20.

The 49ers have taken the lead in the 3rd qtr 14-10 against NY.

The poor kick returner for San Francisco will have to move to Brazil lol after costing them a trip to the Super Bowl. NFL fans are pretty unforgiving. Especially as they missed out when the possession was turned over because the ball glanced the kick returner's knee  :wallywink. If he had got out of the way the 49ers would've had possession and most likely closed out the game as they were leading at the time. The turnover cost them a touchdown. To make matters worse the kick returner then dropped the ball in OT which lead to the Giants' winning field goal.

I didn't catch any pro games on the weekend (ESPN hardly show Lions >:() but in TAM v LT, LT were down by 27 at half time. The lead kept shrinking and extending. It seemed in the bag but LT scored a 13yd TD with 38 seconds left on the clock at 59-57 to TAM. The final play was an incomplete pass in LT's TDZ and TAM took the win. Something like over 1,200 combined yard match.

Sounded like an excellent high scoring game, from the sound of it the defenses weren't too strong.
I caught some of the lions v eagles match live on channel ONE on the weekend. It looked a very good game from what I saw. Again I'm spewing I missed the whole game, your lions got the chocolates with a winning field goal in OT.

Problem with Pittsburgh too Mr Tigra is they have a great D and yes they are missing Polamalu but I just don't rate Roethlesberger.  Gets sacked too many times.
Although if there is a time who can recover in the AFC its the Steelers. Remember 2006 won in the playoffs away to Bengals the choking Colts and then the Broncos to beat Seattle in the Superbowl and send Jerome Bettis off in style.
I think Green Bay are dangerous in the NFC and I think they can go one better and make the Superbowl this year.

As for my team the Washington Redskins they just let me down year in year out regardless of coach or playing roster and other than a few players. Although RG3 has been great for us we have no serious defense and that will be our downfall.

How about Peyton Manning at Denver today leading the Chargers back from 24-0 to beat the perennial underachievers San Diego 35-24. :thumbsup

Gotta admit the Pittsburgh aura is not what it used to be 5 yrs ago. Even last season they just couldn't get it together. Always dangerous at home though.

Big come from behind win by the Steelers away game against the defending champions NY Giants 24-20.
 2 touchdowns in the final term, a dump-off pass to Mike Wallace turned into a 51-yard touchdown on the first play of the fourth quarter that closed the gap to 20-17.
I wonder if the stress of the storms had anything to do with the Giants form?  Anyway it was still a great and much needed win.
Now we sit second behind the ravens and get to play the Kansas City chiefs 1-7 @ home should be any easy win.  :thumbsup

From CBS Sports:

NHL lockout: NHL cancels games through Dec. 30
By Brian Stubits | Blogger
December 10, 2012 11:08 am ET

As expected, the NHL canceled another round of games, those scheduled Dec. 15-30 on Monday. The league made the announcement after a report earlier in the day from TSN's Darren Dreger.

The move is perhaps overdue, seeing how the league's last cancellation left games on the schedule as soon as this coming Friday. But after talks broke off Thursday, we knew there was no way it would be possible for a season to begin that quickly.

Stating the obvious, it also means the hopes for games to be played in 2012 aren't totally gone. After all, they could play games on New Year's Eve.

This latest cancellation brings about a couple of questions. Is the fact that the NHL decided to go with only two weeks -- instead of four weeks and into the middle of January -- a good sign? The case can definitely be made. If there were zero optimism that a deal could get done, they might have taken a bigger chunk of the schedule. Then again, the NHL's M.O. during this lockout has typically been to cancel two weeks at a time, so this doesn't deviate a whole lot from the script.

i would almost go as far to say that they need to win 1 of the next 2..  Steelers and Ravens...  Going to be a tough gig but they have been in form and both the Steelers and Ravens have lost form, particularly the Steelers.  Fingers crossed. If they win both they're a chance at the AFC north title..   Thats why it was so gut wrenching to lose to the cowboys

My thought is the Bengals have a huge mental barrier to cross.  If they do, they could go deep into the playoffs

Possibly, I just think the impact RG3 has had this year has transformed us and given Kirk Cousins our rookie understudy has come in and had an impact immediately producing the match winning TD against Baltimore after RG3 limped off and had 4 TD's against the Browns last week has just made us a legitimate playoff team this season with a chance to make a real impact for the first time in a long time.

Right now I think the 49's can go one better than last year and make the Superbowl. Unless they meet the Redskins. :thumbsup

Falcons were in ripping form a few years back at 13-3 and lost at home 24-2 in the first week I think to the Giants. Chokers IMHO.

they big games this weekend are 49ers v seahawks and bengals at steelers..  And lets not forget giants and Ravens as well. All huge games and will be high quality.. Watched the Falcons today and wasnt that impressed with them against a 2nd rate defence.  Lions went to Johnson way to much to get him over the line for the record..  Even though falcons won 31-18 they only had to capitalize on poor lions defence.. A good side would never have let a receiver on such a poor team get 225 yards in a game..

I reckon they just let Johnson do his thing because he wasn't damaging. He only required single coverage as the DTs were pretty average and Stafford was more often than not throwing under pressure. Don't forget how good Johnson really is too. Suh has given me the poos this season. Bring on last season's form please. It looked like the Falcons just played really conservative and did just enough for the win. Every time they were third and long Ryan managed to throw a first down.

Reckon that if Lions can manage to hold on to Stafford and Johnson, with a fit Pettigrew and an in form Suh, once these geriatric DTs bugger off and we get a real FB, we will finally have the nucleus of a good side. Keeping my fingers crossed that since the best QBs still have a few seasons left in them and there are a heap of really good rookie QBs coming through, that we'll be able to hold on to Stafford after this season.

Agree wait till they play a team also with a half decent D in the NFC playoffs like Green Bay, New York or San Francisco and Atlanta will be like Port Adelaide of 2001/02/03. Choke choke choke. What has helped Atlanta in their division is e tipsy turfy form of New Orleans despite the brilliance of Brees. The NO controversy has has not helped them.

Yeah I agree Dwaino, 49's will clinch division anyway but a Seattle win clinches a playoff berth. They have more to play for this week. Will be a huge game in week 1 of the playoffs in Washington against the Seahawks, they have been awesome in the last month.

Washington 28 Dallas 18. :clapping

Once again Tony Romo fails in a one off game and on the back of RG3 at QB and Morris receiving we wore down the Cowboys. Robert Jacksons intercept from Romo when the score was 21-18 was critical after Sav Rocca had gone a head high tackle costing us a 15 yard penalty.

We win NFC East for the first time since 1999 and are at home to Seattle in week 1 of the playoffs.  :cheers

No need for rebuilding in the NFL.. If you got the money you buy in free agents.  Grab a couple of high draft picks, say like a young QB  and a gun wide receiver.. Bring in a great defensive coach and wammo you're in the the next playoff.  Just like the Bengals did.

Wild card weekend tips?

Going Texans over Bengals, but finding this one hard to split. Bengals starting def 4 are a brick wall, but JJ Watts is a wall unto himself. Schaub been average though.

Packers over Vikings. Ponder might not even play yet yeah?

Seahawks over Redskins. Will be a good game and RG3 is on song. Just reckon Seahawks are one of the most complete and all round teams this season and could go all the way. Lynch, Wilson etc just too good.

Ravens over Colts. Colts would be feel good story of the year but they've got their hands full here.

NFL Kickoff 2-Minute Drill on ESPN predicting Ravens v 49ers Superbowl.
He's also backing Bengals, Packers, Ravens, Redskins this weekend. Most of the panel pumping up the Seahawks but their dubious road record might not be in their favour.

If Kaepernick can keep this up then Gore and Crabtree will take the 49ers all the way. I've probably mozzed them lol but that's my prediction. SF's offence is hard to stop as they can rack up touchdowns and blow teams away. Very similar to the Montana-Rice teams of the 80s.

Baltimore wins it 34-31.

49ers had their chance on their last drive when they got to about 10 yards out but they couldn't get the touchdown. Crabtree was held back by the guernsey in the endzone but the refs let it go. Like in any footy when you're playing catch-up you need everything to go your way and to take all your chances which normally doesn't happen.

Baltimore deserved the win but the Niners didn't deserve to lose

Got the rough end of the stick from the refs for most of the game while the ravens got the rub, but it came down to Kaep not being able to get the touchdown from 3 seperate 1st and goal attempts

Forget the fumble and the interception, Niners outplayed them but couldn't convert in the red zone

That's QB inexperience - was screaming for them to throw Alex Smith in for a play just to mix it up at the death, might have got the TD to win it when they were 2nd and goal with 2 mins to go

Kudos to Flacco, he has a killer arm, deserved the MVP

I wonder how his FIGJAM attitude will go down though. But their defence will be almost impenetrable with his addition. Could nearly pencil them in for the Superbowl now. Lots of depth on their Dline, probably why the Lions could tempt over Jason Jones.

Boss gave us the full long weekend so I got to watch the draft. I watched the top 15 or so just to see where the best blokes went. WTF at Detroit with Ansah at 5?! Sure needed to fill that DL spot since Avril (went to Seahawks lol) and stuff left, but surely better options than a feel good story out of Ghana who has only played like 9 games. Was really keen on  Milliner since we could go a quality corner despite his injuries.

So many tackles went high  :o

Can fit right in with Cam Chancellor. They have a monster defence right now and they may go one further in the NFC this coming season. They were unlucky to lose to SF 49's in the playoffs and after quarter time gave my Redskins a lesson in playoff defense. :thumbsup

Going 5th round may take some of the gloss off his sense of self worth

But I'll back his new teammates to beat the poo out of him

Tried watching it but it just takes so long between picks I got bored - except when Jets fans started booing their selections lmao

Tebow does it again.

Trying to think of any Aussie Rules draftee who like Tebow was a gun junior yet was written off by many experts/recruiters as far as playing at the pro level but comes in and is a major factor in his side making the finals in his debut season. The only one I can think of is Joel Selwood as some recruiters were concerned about his knees holding up in senior footy.

He got released by the Jets. I read a article that he could be going to play in the CFL.

Been busy so haven't watched a single game yet. Only some Lions highlights. Reggie Bush really adds something (no more just throwing everything to Megatron  :lol) and finally a d-line that's nearly NFL quality. Disappointing to just get pipped by the Cardinals to make it 1-1. NFC will be tough this year. I reckon 49ers and Seahawks will be neck and neck for division, and either will have a good enough record for first wildcard meaning only one left. Can't see the Packers with Rodgers ever not winning North so Lions need a miracle to aim for the last spot. At least by the time the wheels have fallen off the Lions season by about 1-6 the hockey will have started  :lol

I hope they do so the Niners can steam home and clinch the div  :clapping ;D

Sportscenter blowing their load over a late Packers go ahead TD to win North. Can't stand the fanning the Crappers get. If the Lions didn't chuck their season by trying to fake a FG against the Steelers then Aaron todger and his merry band of green fudge packers would have been irrelevent. ::)

Was stuffing horrendous. Nothing will beat our game when we are 10-0 down, DeAngelo Williams nearly goes all the way, fumbles and Atlanta recover. Then on the first play Matt Ryan throws an intercept pass for a TD. ;D

Post by: dwaino on December 31, 2013, 02:02:52 PM

Had to go. From playoffs to winning only 4 to then missing the playoffs after being 6-2. Detroit have been a joke team for yonks but on paper have the best line up in NFC north IMO. No excuse. Stafford, Houston, Bush, Johnson, Suh, Ansah etc. Schwartz was a dead set dud. Trying to fake a field goal against the Steelers to seal the game was the nail in his coffin. Didn't even try to win a couple weeks ago, ran out the clock, one TD behind with 2 TOs to spare. Really solid d-line, just get a first round WR in there to make the long passing game to Megatron less predictable and that team could go a long way. /fanrant

Just read that they've cleaned out most of their line coaches too. Start fresh  :cheers

Anyone here a Cowboys fan? Yesterday was classic.  ;D

Missing that field goal? Or throwing the extra point to the covered bloke while Witten was standing clear in the end zone? Or the intercept on the final drive?  :lol 8-8 again, but reckon Tony Homo would have got them across the line this time. Oh well  ;D


Anyone up on the hockey at the moment? Team USA goalies leaked, one of them Jimmy Howard. After the Swedes and Ruskis bugger off to Sochi and now Howard, don't think the Wings will be able to field a team for a month  :lol

Your niners are a chance Gerks. Seattle have been a little down lately.  Hard to beat at home but if anyone can do it it's the tin arse 49ers.

You've got that around the wrong way Mr Gerkin

Cincinatti are the teachers of "how to choke in any game, anytime" as well "3 easy steps to on field implosion" they wrote the book. Actually I think they are working on the "thesis" as we speak  ;D

Had a feeling this would happen when I read the Ford plane set to go pick him up was delayed  :banghead bit annoyed. Detroit seemed as good a fit for him as he did for the Lions. Out of our other options I hope they go Caldwell. Detroit have long been a joke but I reckon their offense is pretty potent with Stafford, Johnson and Bush but they were poorly coordinated this year. The defense with Suh and Ansah kept Detroit in it up to their ears all season and still have Jason Jones to come back. So another offensive orientated coach such as Caldwell, like Whiz should add the fire power.

Don't see the point in Munchak and if they go for Kubiak then I give up as they as well have got this guy

Might be a bit quiet around here this season without the great Gerkin, but the season is about to kick off.

So hard to make an early call outside the obvious ones, so many changes at so many teams. NFC west will probably be a poo fight again with the 49ers and Seahawks.

Really bullish about the Lions this season. New coach and staff so hopefully there are no teething issues but will be good to be rid of the long passing game as we got found out late in the season with no plan B. Stafford with Bush, Tate, Megatron, Bell and now Ebron has to be the most devastating offense in NFC north. Bell has really come on as a RB which frees up Bush to play receiver more and increase the longevity of his crook knees. On the D really need Jones back on the line because between him, Suh and Ansah the Lions will be eating QBs for breakfast. Hopefully Slay and Levy continue their improvment from last year and build in our weak secondary.

Now that we have Bell releasing Bush to play receiver and Tate taking the heat off Megatron you just can't double team him like in the past. Giants found out quickly by giving CJ a paddock and he made them pay  8)

Lions tight end Joseph Fauria missed Sunday's game against the Jets with an ankle injury. Pretty standard stuff until you hear he injured his ankle while trying to stop his dog from peeing in the house.

Reckon he'll rest up another week before back for the Vikings game to put our foot down on division. Reckon the Packers are stuffed so our only threat really is the Bears. NFC north is fairly average so really doubt a wild card will come from it, divisional winner will probably only walk away with 11 or 12 wins.

Only time I watch EPL is the occasional match on at a decent Saturday night time slot and I don't think it bounces around to different matches? I miss way back when ESPN on Optus Vision showed Bundesliga. Can't be stuffed paying that other mob (setanta sports or something?) $19 a month to show it on my foxtel box.

As for NFL, I can only catch one or two quarters when I'm getting ready for work. I generally then try to keep up with videos and stuff from a variety of free apps and websites. Only recently upgraded to windows 8.1 and jumped on their app store and grabbed the NFL app which has quite a lot for a free app. I get to keep up with everything Lions in glorious HD  :thumbsup

Not sure what the problem is at Detroit. We're not poor. We're owned by the Ford family. But maybe that's it. Maybe the Lions franchise needs someone to take it over that loves the team, and not just something that the rich Ford kids inherit. Saying that, things look on the up with the new staff and players with good attitudes like Bush and Tate actually want to come and play in Detroit  ;D

Until we do something though the jokes will just keep rolling

Wonder if playing Oakland had anything to do with it? They're absolute pox. Just like the Demons. Seattle is usually renowned for having a really loud home crowd to the point where the visitors can't even hear the QB call a play on the ground and they have to signal time outs.

Apparently Dalton had the worst pass completion record for a Cincinnati QB ever or since '94 or something. Granted the Browns are probably improving for the first time since forever,  still embarrassing to get flogged by them by that much. Would be like going down to Melbourne by 60.

Not that I can talk yet, not expecting the Lions to go well against Miami. They belted the Chargers who are a passing team like us so unless we get our running game on I don't like pur chances. Megatron is back in the team I think and it's at home so that might be in our favour  :help

Post by: dwaino on November 12, 2014, 12:14:58 AM
Need some form, 4 straight losses and 3 home losses for the season is pox. Going through divisional standings you're like us, need to improve offense if serious about winning division. Check out the top team in nearly every division, 30+ TDs. We're both 10 behind. Green Bay have got their game going so we just have to keep winning, dropping any stupid game and they'll get us. Luckily we've still got some big offensive outs still to come back like Reggie Bush. We've got the best defense in the league at the moment, conceding less than anyone else and I think most or close to most scores from turnovers, so as long as that holds up and our offense can score more and stop relying on Stafford to throw a game winning TD pass in the last 30 seconds of the 4th then we should be good ;D

I don't know why our Off is struggling to put up big scores though. We've had all of Megatron, Bush and Pettigrew out for a few weeks but they're slowly coming back. At full strength our receivers are Johnson, Tate, Bush, Bell, Ebron and Pettigrew who are all guns. Might just getting used to the new style since getting a new coach. He was offensive coordinator at the Ravens when they won it two seasons back and was Peyton Manning's QB coach at the Colts when he was there so all the more reason our Offense should be firing. He's managed to squeeze more out of late pick receivers like Riddick (game winning TD last game) and still win games without our stars.

We've got some really tough games coming up. We still have to play Cardinals, Patriots and Bills, with the only real reprieve coming from Buccs, Bears and Vikings. Looking around the conference I think we're a good chance to at least go wild card. Currently 7 wins, so as long as we win some and only lose a couple then it should only come down to us, Cowboys/Eagles and Cardinals/Seahawks. Looks like both NFC wild cards this season will have more wins than NFC South winner  :lol :shh
Title: Re: NFL 14/15
Post by: tigs2011 on November 13, 2014, 11:24:15 AM
 :lol our offense is total arse. Not only do they not score but they concede points too or turn it over in scoring positions and put the defense under immense pressure. Newton looks totally broken at the moment. Poor bastard could barely stand up on Tuesday. Our bye week is after the Falcons game so that should come in handy.

Played against this bloke a lot in juniors (not directly, our teams as he was a mid and I was a forward) since we are the same age and were in the same region/division. As the only one to make it from our year I followed his career a bit. One memory is of a semi final where I opened up early with a couple goals after playing a little closer to goal than usual. Despite the height difference the opposition coach moved Harding on to me since he was always a state rep player and as far as I ever made rep footy was district captain. A runner came out and told me to switch with the full forward taking Scott with me to the square and I got two goals off the next two deliveries.... and thus my only 1 on 1 with him ended ;D I'm sure he has long moved on from that and would well and truly have my measure now lol

Dick move but he didn't actually break any rules as it was against another linesman who wasn't already engaged and it wasn't from behind. He's pretty hot headed and most Lions fans wanted Raiola gone last season but with any luck this will be the last season we have to put up with that dud. Not the first time he's done something like that. Rumor has it he won't be re-signed. Maybe after we lose Suh to FA we will free up cash for two new tackles and a center.

Some fans are starting to go off that a team like the Lions may miss out who will finish 12-4 or 11-5 when the NFC South winner will only be like 6-10 or 7-9 lmao. Have to admit that is stuffed  :lol

If us and the packs keep winning we will have a massive final game show down as we play each other at Lambeau. Winner takes all. They are a game ahead but we've already beaten them once and are ahead on divisional wins.

Yep against the Steelers too who have you on divisional and conference wins. Only that draw keeping the Bengals ahead right now. Ravens and Browns also hot on your heels. As long as you don't drop many more then Bengals should at least make wild card as AFC isn't the same log jam that the NFC is right now.

Who would you rather play? GB or Detroit?  ;D will be in Carolina too. That's another thing with GB v Lions in week 17.

If the playoffs were to start right now you would play Seahawks, I think the playoff positions will change up over the next two weeks though. Just read up some scenarios, if we win next week and GB lose we will win division regardless of what happens last game against them due to tie breaker rules  ;D philly look to be the unlucky team to miss on 10 or 11 wins.

We haven't won at Lambeau in about 20 years so not getting my hopes up but how big is det v go next week. Winner takes division, second nfc seed and a week off and a home run into conference . Loser falls as low as 6th seed and goes on the road. I don't think we've won a play off on the road in as long. Our offense is stuffed for some reason. our defence is awesome and keeping us in games but that won't be enough against GB or any play off team (excluding South  ;D). offense really needs to reward the D for their effort. With Stafford, Bell, CJ etc there is no reason we shouldn't be putting up big scores against crap sides.

I think what everyone is crapping on about is if the playoffs were to fall right now then you'd be playing the Packs at home when they're 11-4. Since division leaders get a free ride in there is always a team who makes who are a game or two behind someone else who misses out on a wildcard but right now you're 4 wins (well 3.5 wins ;D) behind your opponent and get the home ground advantage. Won't even be a 0.500 team  :lol but thems the rules and everyone has to suck it up.

Dwaino -

You have complained about an NFC South team hosting a playoff game on about 20 occasions like it's some new event.

Get a grip. Just because Detroit make the playoffs, it doesn't change the way things are.

Since 2002 when the structure was changed to 8 divisions plenty of teams have won divis with 9-7 records.

Chargers won with 8-8
Seattle won with 7-9
Denver won with 8-8
Your own divi was won with an 8-7-1 record all of a year ago by the Cheeseheads

Winning divisions with crappy records is common.

One other thing (and I can't stand them), mock the Raiders at your own peril. They have been VERY solid under Sparano late and have a potential superstar young QB and possibly the best young defender in football. Apart from the 52-0 flogging they have played with a lot of heart down the stretch and he has changed the locker room dramatically  apparently.

Your own mob has a very Richmond like history the last 20 years and hasn't won their division since 1993. At least the Raiders won the division in 2000, 2001, 2002. Including making the Super Bowl in 2002. Would think those three years alone would give them the right to have merchandise somewhere near the front in the modern era. However, in saying all of that they are ranked 28th by Forbes in NFL team value. So they can't be selling much, lol.

Anyhow, enjoy one more week of Odell Beckham for this year. You are about to watch the journey of the best receiver to ever lace them up unfold over the next decade.

Ok, I finally read your diatribe and don't know what point you're trying to make? Just about everything you brought up has been covered at some point over the past few pages but of course through the rose tinted glasses of our own teams. Even the point about teams making it with average records. My point is the one that is raised whenever a less than 0.500 team makes it. Yeah you're damn right I'm happy about the Lions making it,  because besides the Pistons in the early 2000s the only thing I've had to cheer about out of Detroit is the Wings, and since Gerks isn't around any more to keep this thread rolling I'll do my best to keep it going even if it is about my own team. I'm one eyed, deal with it.

Look they're just words on the screen and can be misconstrued pretty easily but it seemed like you unnecessarily having a go. Me and tigs (since we're really the only two that are posting in here so I'll throw him under the bus lol) aren't experts or claiming to be but to suggest we aren't dealing in facts is just plain wrong (however negative sentiment against other teams is subjective and never wrong) . Feel free to regularly jump in and join the discussion instead of just coming in late and firing from the hip, and so we're not just toing and froing about how Carolina are going to Bradbury a play off berth and who Suh is going to stomp next next. The more teams we get in here the better and the more balanced it gets.

Our season ends next week. I think we'll play Dallas? We'll get blown away. Can't believe this ref could turn over the 2 point play with insufficient footage. Whatever happened to benefit of the doubt? Unlikely we would have won another onside kick but sill. That safety call was unfair too, but that's just another day at Lambeau. After we lose Suh to FA hopefully we use the free cash to buy a new centre and some protectionfor Stafford. Had no help from the line today and was always under pressure.

I know I was trashing the South  :shh  ;D but you do have to like your chances at home. I think the Cards are a good side, especially at home and imo going under the radar a bit in terms of play off odds. Might hinge on whether or not Stanton plays.

Good to see Suh won his appeal. If he wanted to stomp on Rodgers he would have. He was definitely being a smart arse with every intention to walk over him but if it were anyone other than golden boy Rodgers then nothing would have even come of it. There was more malice in what Raiola did. Rodgers is such a good QB and is amazing to watch him thread those passes but stuff me he has one of those smug expressions you just want to thump.

Annnnnd there's the let down. So Richmond. These flags are rubbish though. Everyone is holding each other yet they always manage to throw one us. I think the cowgirls have nearly gained more yards on flags than Tony Homo.

4 points. Called it. Our offense couldn't score for an entire half.
Title: Re: NFL 14/15
Post by: dwaino on January 05, 2015, 12:00:04 PM
The pickup of this flag for interference sums up the performance of the black and white. Still bummed at our offence though, 20 points not good enough in the playoffs. Dominated the first half. About as gutted as the EF against Carlton.

I thought we were no chance at the start but we got ourselves in it. Seeing stuff like this since fills the hole a little. We should have put them away earlier but that flag pick up and Princess Bryant allowed to storm the field to protest, but we were up against more than the Cowboys. Even if the call was right (their defence was one ref didn't believe there was enough contact and Pettigrew was face guarding... Which is a rule in college but not Nfl so that's another story) then we should have got 15yd and a 1st down for Bryant running onto the field, without a helmet, to protest. All the while the play clock was never stopped so by the time the flag was lifted were forced to go 4th and 1. Would have put us in FG range had we not made the TD and the entire game changes. We got pinged 2 or 3 times for holding on their resulting drive to rub salt into the wound.

Money talks http://www.mlive.com/lions/index.ssf/2015/01/nfl_admits_another_officiating.html

Digging deeper, Jerry Bergman who insisted to overturn the call was directly involved in the Steelers vs Dolphins fumble gate, Jim Schwartz costly unsportmanlike red flag against the Texans that earned them a TD they wouldn't have got on review (granted it was his fault but Bergman wasn't overly interested in soft unsportsman penalties when Bryant took to field to protest this time), and after a complaint from the Bills in the 70s his old man never ref'd another Bills game. Sounds like a great bloke http://www.aol.com/article/2015/01/05/i-prefer-not-to-think-before-speaking-nfl-official-blamed-for-blown-call-playoss-cowboys-lions/21125075/

Detroit is hockey town and that is all. Even the Pistons have been garbage and we lost Monroe at the end of last season so no way we will ever do anything as long as the Bulls and Cavs are strong. As for the Lions, time to pee Lombardi off. Our offense has been rotten with him there, probably only got the job because of his name. I though Caldwell did great things in his first season last season but he has stunk this year. Stafford will be stretchered off the ground before too long with the lack of protection the OL are giving him. I don't care that Suh is missing from the defense. If the offense wasn't so crap and consistently going 3 and out then the defense wouldn't be on the field so long. We have Johnson, a genuine generational player and not only did we waste his prime we are still wasting him now. We don't throw to him, instead we keep trying to run it when all we gain is inches. Absolute joke of a franchise right now. They were all drinking the koolaid after last season.

It's powdered cordial. Sort of seen as a poor drink that is consumed mainly in the ghettos but it's often used at someone in a sort of derogatory manner. If someone says something stupid like "let's trade our first pick for Yarran" then you could say "get off the koolaid."

If we grabbed captain fumbles it would probably only be as a backup. Would start behind Abdullah who has been in form (despite the team's form), Bell and probably Riddick. I know we were keen on him the off season but we picked up undrafted rookie Zenner instead who was a revelation in the pre-season. Unfortunately he's injured for I think the rest of the season.

I think he would be a better chance of getting picked up by the Seahawks.

Way to blow another solid lead, but just like the last playoffs when we were up on Dallas, choked and eventually lost to a controversial decision in which a face mask was involved, we again blew a lead to GB for them to win off a face mask penalty which has since been deemed incorrect. I know we're crap in terms of silverware but what pees me off about the NFL is that these sorts of junk calls always seem to happen in favour of teams like Dallas, Fudge Packers, Pats etc.

We were just on a roll too since booting that spud Lombardi.

That's where I disagree. He didn't actually break the written rule, there was no grasp.

Quote
“No player shall grasp and control, twist, turn, push, or pull the facemask of an opponent in any direction,” Rule 12, Section 2, Article 14 states.

The rule comes with an important caveat: “If a player grasps an opponent’s facemask, he must immediately release it. If he does not immediately release it and controls his opponent, it is a foul.”

Lions defender Devin Taylor grazed the facemask of Aaron Rodgers, at best. If there was any grasping (and there wasn’t), Taylor immediately released the facemask.

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/12/04/facemask-rule-as-written-wasnt-violated-by-lions/


We should never have been in that position to begin after being 17-0 or whatever it was at home, but it's not the first time this has happened to us. I think it was Levy? Who had his face mask pulled by the WR against Dallas in last season's wildcard round. It was more blatant than this and wasn't called, instead he was pinged for interference. Very inconsistent calling.


Edit: sorry, you said correct or not. So ignore my disagree bit  ;D still didn't break the rule at the end of the day IMO (which my opinion is subjective in this instance), regardless of where his arm was and if it should or should not have been there.

The win in OT was a great finish. Great watching as a neutral. Thought it was going to be a blow out for a bit there, then the Pats came back and the massive run in OT to set up the Jets win. The chant leaving he stadium was "Brady sucks! Brady sucks!"  :lol

My first NFL game I've attended though so can't say definitively but I thought the fans of both sides were great. The banter was awesome and no one took it personally which I see at AFL games all time (I'm guilty of too).

Title: Re: NFL 15/16
Post by: mightytiges on January 10, 2016, 05:48:19 PM
I don't follow them but I think the Bengals today just topped anything Richmond has stupidly done in the past to lose a game.

After being asleep for 3 quarters to be down 0-15, the Bengals awaken to comeback and grab the lead with less than two minutes to go (16-15). They then get a intercept to regain possession with just 1:30 to go. That should've been game over just by safe running plays to down the ball infield and run down the clock.

Nope! The comedy relief begins with a strip of ball before the ball-carrier's knees were down to give the Steelers back possession. Then when a long throw is too high and incomplete, a moronic Bengal defender (#55) loses his marbles and tries to knock the head off of the Pittsburgh receiver as he was falling backwards to the ground. It was an absolute mindless cheap shot. The receiver was out cold before he hit the ground. To add to the stupidity, another Bengal defender (#24) pushes an opposition coach and gives away a 15 yard penalty to put Pittsburgh in friendly field goal range with just 10-ish seconds to go. The kick was good and the Steelers won 18-16.

Tiger eyes to turn towards Super Bowl

Herald-Sun
February 6, 2016


RICHMOND players will be watching Monday’s Super Bowl with more interest than most, all because of Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton.

Newton, the likely NFL MVP, will play in his first Super Bowl after leading the Panthers to an incredible 17-1 record this season.

But the Tigers may be taking some of the credit after helping Newton refine his non-existent footy skills on a trip to Tigerland.

Newton travelled to Australia last July, training with Richmond at Punt Road and watching the team face off against the GWS Giants at the MCG.

Key defender David Astbury was clearly a massive fan, wearing Newton’s guernsey when he met the quarterback, but he claimed there were Tigers who were even worse.

“Some blokes probably took it a little bit too far,” Astbury said.

“With Brett Deledio it was a bit cringe-worthy.

“He had to google NFL to understand what it was and then he found out that Cam earns more money than him, so that’s probably why he was so impressed.”

Midfielder Shaun Grigg agreed and said despite Astbury’s choice of attire, he acted responsibly.

“(Astbury) wasn’t too bad, he was a bit too shy and a bit scared,” Grigg explained.

“I tried to talk to Cam a couple of times but got rudely interrupted by Chris Newman.”

Grigg is the resident gridiron expert at Tigerland after winning the club’s fantasy NFL competition for the second year running.

He did so without Newton in his squad, instead watching as teammate Dustin Martin squandered his talents.

“(Newton) was in Dusty’s team and he sat on the bench all year, so Dusty didn’t have too much of an idea,” Grigg said.

Newton’s Carolina Panthers will face Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 50, which can be watched live at 10:30AM AEDT on Monday.

Don't worry Billy, I'm still waiting for the Lions to have a decent offense despite year after year saying it is being addressed. Our head coach was QB coach at Colts during Peyton's years and the OC at Baltimore when they won it FFS. Classy defense but already I can tell it will be another crappy season of low scoring. Yet again we were on top at half time only to add a FG for the rest of the game and lost by a point.

Title: Re: NFL 16/17
Post by: dwaino on September 19, 2016, 05:14:50 PM
It's not far from the truth. 80s-90s Pistons with Rodman, Thomas, Dumar etc long gone, just a memory. Auburn has had declining crowds for 15 years and is the butt of many jokes. Much like the city itself and players of any sport don't want to go there. Was looking up briefly there with Drummond, CP and Monroe but Monroe leaving was a kick in the guts. I'll believe it when I see it. It's a tough division with the Cavs, Pacers, Bulls never down for long. Still the best thing out of the D are the Wings, 25 seasons and counting. I'm sure you will disagree though as you do.
Title: Re: NFL 16/17
Post by: Damo on September 19, 2016, 05:35:55 PM
From 2001 to 2007 the Detroit Pistons made the Eastern Conference finals 6 years in a row.

They have been rank since then.

But I think you are ignoring an exceptional period for the franchise.

It was the Big Ben, Rip, Chauncey, Sheed, Tayshaun period. At which point Dumars was in charge of basketball operations.

I'm not disagreeing at how good the Red Wings are. Just completely disagreeing with lumping the Pistons with the joke Lions.



Title: Re: NFL 16/17
Post by: dwaino on September 19, 2016, 06:10:00 PM
They were competitive through then but they were still on the way down from being conference champs and there has been very little upside since. I really like Caldwell-Pope and 15/16 was definitely an improvement on the past I just don't see where the significant improvement will come from. When I was in the NBA store in NY not long ago and after aimlessly wandering the 3 levels a store assistant asked who my team was and proceeded to show to a massive range of two different hats and a Drummond t-shirt  :thumbsdown :-[ it probably sounds trivial but I've always taken into account a team's ability to move merchandise because at the end of the day who can stuffed spending money on losers unless they're the miserable rusted on types like us to who keep coughing up for the Tiges.

After we got the Packers and Vikings I thought they would be important in terms of tie breaking for a wildcard spot, never thought we sit top of division! Early form may come back to bite so just fingers crossed at the moment. While you would take a win any day I just wish we could be more convincing.

Big road win and the Lions go 4 straight. Two games clear of the Pack but who have two divisional games left (not including us) to our one. I can see it now, next three weeks we go 2-1 (including a win over the Bears but will drop the Giants at home), they go 3-0 then we face each other in W17 for them to win and take division on tie breakers. Huge set up for another epic Lions let down.

Brady into another Super Bowl leading the Buccaneers to an upset away win over Green Bay. Tampa Bay will be playing the Super Bowl at their home ground too (where's Kane Cornes?).

Looks like they will be playing Kansas City who are thumping the Bills.

Tampa Bay won easy 31-9. Brady does it again. That's 4 Super Bowl wins for him since the age of 37 and he said he is coming back next season too.

They were. Madden was the voice of American Football. RIP.


ps. Credit also to Madden's NFL video game which helped to make sense of the sport for those of us like me who didn't grow up with it.

Both top seeds knocked out today. WP will be a happy and relieved Bengals fan  ;D.


LOL at all the Aaron Rodgers jokes on twitter :lol. After just 3 pts all game, the Niners pull out a TD off a blocked punt and then a last play FG in the final 4 minutes to win  :o.

The last two minutes + OT in the Kansas City vs Buffalo game was crazy. 4 touchdowns and a FG with 5 lead changes  :o. The poor Bills once again the St Kilda of the NFL.


ps. Kane Cornes to sook about the Superbowl being in LA if the Rams make it  :wallywink.

No team had ever won the super bowl at their own stadium until the Bucs last year. Amazing it could happen back to back

Rams won it 23-20 with a touchdown in the last 2 mins.

Was SHocking in charge of the NFL refs as well?

WP's Bengals one game away from the Superbowl after being far too good for the poor old Bills in the snow.

NFC: Eagles vs 49ers .... Niners on a 12 game winning streak.
AFC: Chiefs vs Bengals

You should check out the photos of the Bengals ground today, no green grass to be seen. Completely under snow

Sorry @Bengals fans but take heart knowing you have a generationally brilliant player at the most important position with a terrific coach in place to keep everything on track. The old days of the Bungles are long LONG gone.

ps. Out of interest, this tweet could apply to the Tiges as well after last year's near misses.

Crazy Superbowl. Just a shootout. 35-35 with 2 mins to play :o.

KC won it 38-35. Field goal with 11 secs to go.

Every sport has its eccentricities but it's still weird (albeit clever knowledge of the rules) that time management is the better option than scoring an open touchdown.

Don't think either there's another team sport where one position wins you titles. Pat Mahones' second half won the game.

As for the Aussies, Siposs is copping it for that ordinary punt kick in the last quarter although the whole Eagles' coverage stuffed up allowing a record punt return.

The punt return was obviously the fault of Siposs

Hang time is so crucial and that punt was a debacle
