NFL week 1.
« on: September 08, 2008, 12:51:33 AM »
Ok so week one is almost done.  Let's see what we learned.

Tom Brady is human after all.  On this note the guy on sportcenter (Not Burman) side with this ONE injury the balance of power had shifted to the NFC?  WTH?  I personally don't agree, but you can argue since the AFC Powers Pretty much had a terrible week.  Sand Deigo lost and so did Ind.

Favre will be fine and maybe the Jets will make the playoffs.  They look good.

My Last though is....  Who will win the NFC West.  Wide Open  Arizona beat SF.


thoughts anyone?

Well I'm just happy that the Bears upset Ind tonight, we had a horrible preseason so tonight was great.

And btw it's San Diego.  :aok

sweet Tom Brady was my first pick in my fantasy football league. And the worst part is i got a offer to trade him for Eli manning and Calvin Johnson  about a hour before the game.  :mad: :mad: :mad:

Well Dallas is awful tough and that might be what he was referrign to.  Also Philly will surpirse this year. Giants still have strong D.  Packers.. a question mark for now but a very deep, young, and talented team.

The Colts looked very ordinary against a bad Bears team. Pittsburgh is still tough.. San Diego... maybe overrated.  Who else in the AFC could be considered?

It sure was good to see Chicago play good ball again.  Orton looked good and didn't make any Grossman's...err mistakes.  Gonna be a good year.

I'd be very surprised.  Their really not very good, beyond Hester, a couple of defenders and Forte.

Steelers looked good and are not talked about...I personally get tired of hearing about New England...then Indy and San Diego as the only teams in the NFL that ever have a shot at winning the Super Bowl.

San Fran was a fluke, Arizona couldn't play their way out of a wet paper bag.

It would be nice to see them have a +500 year this year, seeing they haven't had a decent year since they came to AZ.

Next time AZ gets St. Louis garbage, make sure we at least get some free beer out of the deal. Bidwell, I'm lookin' at you sport.

Brady out for the season is a gigantic blow for NE.  They need a QB that will save the season or they are chewed, skrooowed, & BBQ'ed.

I think Steve may be a tad hard on the Bears. 

Hester tried a very stupid return from the end zone move that I would have benched him 3 games for that ended in a punt.  Lucky it wasn't a game breaker.  Manning didn't have the confidence that he normally has.  He did throw some great passes, and from what I saw in the second Q--Manning could have marched it down all night but after 4 or 5 plays the Bear defensive backfield figured out what he was doing and stopped it cold.

The Bears are tougher than most think.  We need a good 3 or 4 games look to be sure.

My Hawks laid an egg, not surprising since we lost 3 starting wide recievers before the season started, then lost a 4th wide reciever during the game (Burleson) and our starting RB during the game.  :cry  There won't be any 5th consecutive NFC West Champsionship this year...

I'm certainly glad I chose to work outside listening to the game on the radio than waste the morning watching them lose to a Bills team that will finish last in their division!

Could be if
1 - the O line stays healthy
2 - Horton remains in a coma and forgets he sux
3  - Forte wasn't a fluke
4 - Mike Brown stays healthy
5 - Hester doesn't try to be cute and run every kickoff back ten yards deep in the end zone
6 - D line stays healthy
7 - other various things
Was a fun game to watch - Manning wasn't playing his A game - and give credit to Bear D - they had good coverage

I'm a Packer fan... lived in Minnesota.  I think it's going to be an offensively inept game with the exception of a big play or two caused by defensive blunders...

Go Pack.. I guess(Bitter about Favre)
