I thought the Dolphins reached for Tannenhill. Hopefully they are right about him. They have been in need of a quarterback since Marino retired. All in all, I think they had a solid draft.

no doubt they need a QB...I agree that it was a bit of a reach, but it was a reasonable gamble..cause they are goin no where till they get a QB

for the first time in a decade I am mildly optimistic about my team...Da Bills....added some great talent in free agency and with the exception of the first pick (wtf?) they had a great draft...................................

I completly agree about the Bills. They surprised me last year and I think they will build on that this year. Hopefully they can take out the Pats this year.

The Bills need to be able to run the ball, cause that high flying passing attack won't do crap in November/December in Buffalo. That is assuming we actually have some type of winter this year.


The Giants picks baffled me again this year, but Jerry Reese knows what he is doing and always has good drafts; probably best GM in the league. Rueben Randle would have been a first round pick if he was on Notre Dame or Oklahoma St like Floyd and Blackmon, but he had no QB. Hosley would have been a much higher rated CB if he was 2 inches taller or if people actually threw at him this year. He had NINE ints a year ago, and 3 this year.

Da Bears made some good moves this off-season. Pretty excited to see how this season plays out given our offensive line doesn't shit the bed and let Cutler get destroyed all year....again.

i will be incredibly happy if my raiders can break even this year and win a couple key bragging rights match so i dont have to be embarrassed to be a raiders fan as usual!

[shogun86]

laugh at me all you will but im gonna make a bold prediction: RAIDERS will make the playoffs and it starts this monday when they annihilate the chargers

im guessing nine or ten wins this upcoming season. afc west champs!!!! im still not convinced with the donkeys. i still have to see how manning recovers from that neck surgery

[irishmike357]

I like the Raiders and think they are a decent team. Can run the ball and have a solid enough D. But the Broncos will be very good with Manning and the Chargers are always tough.


I got the Giants winning the Super Bowl Like I told the loud mouth cowboys fan in front of me at the game on Wednesday, winning the first game is not what matters, it's about winning the last game.

giant's look good.

raiders need to fix their secondary. need to fix those stupid penalties, that's what cost them games last season. and their receivers need to step up.ford and moore are banged up. there's a good chance he will play but still those rookie players (criner, streater) need to show up. their d-line looked great and wheeler impressed me. like i said work on the penalties, secondary and receivers need to show up. almost forgot, they been struggling in the red zone, they get that straightened out and i think they will be alright

[shogun86]

early on i gotta say the bears don't look good.

[KotovSyndrome]

Well, Robert Griffin III had a pretty strong debut for the Redskins today. I was amazed how subdued the fans were the entire game. Granted the Redskins dominated most of it, but they weren't even energized at the opening kick off.

I almost am nervous for the skins to have a good season because even though I am a skins fan, I have to admit, we are one annoying bunch of mother fuckers. I've never seen such self-satisfaction with being 1-0. Almost have to root against the skins out of spite

I thought they looked pretty solid. Granted it was against the Colts, but still a solid performance.

yea, they looked sloppy early on starting inside their own ten? but after that they got everything together

[Steveomac]

fuck packers couldnt get anything going until late in the game and we still couldnt get the job done.

[shogun86]

raiders looked terrible. i thought they would be a much improved team. sure ford and moore didn't play but that's no reason for their poor performance. looked like they just gave up. feel sorry for the fans that showed up.
