Anyone catch the Colts vs Patriots game to kick off the start of the 85th NFL season? Was a great way to start the season and i hope all the games are as entertaining. Was in a strange situation where i couldn't care who actually won this as i find New England to be horribly boring and Ty Law to be very annoying (he takes arrogance to a whole new level, he makes Jose Mourinho look like the most modest man in the world) and Indianapolis aren't much better with Peyton 'Most over-hyped player ever' Manning leading the charge.
Was good to hear the greatest commentating duo in all of sports Al Michaels and the legend John Madden back once again, no one can beat them.
But anyway the game, few interceptions thrown by Manning showing just how average he is and proving once more New England is not his favourite place (Vick and McNabb are far better) and Ty Law spending most of the game on the bench and when he did come on he got schooled by Marvin Harrison (and why Manning wasn't throwing to him more often i've no idea, he's your best reciever you muppet, use him) Great ending as well with McGuinness sacking him and leaving VanDerJagt with a hard field goal which he missed when he should have only had about a 35 yard attempt to knock threw the sticks.
Bring on the rest of the season

Another good fact for you, the Raiders are leading in the penalties column YET AGAIN :-D

Antonio Gates
Tony Gonzalez

They're so old they make Tonty look like a baby.
*Cough*
Anyway.
Yeah, there's still loads of things I don't know anyway.
But, team munn = good.
I I think I will change Gates to Gonzalez.

This explains your lack of knowledge and respect for the Raiders. "Old team" - pfffft. Although it's kind of true.

Trent Green Kansas City QB
Playing the Chargers, who also have a low ranked passing defence (5th worst or something, so I figure the Chiefs will try and exploit that.
Curtis Martin New York Jets RB
Playing the Rams, who haven't got the best rushing defence.
Antonio Gates San Diego TE
I'm wondering whether or not to switch him for Gonzalez, as SD have a good rushing defence, so KC will probably pass more, but then again, KC have a terrible passing defence, so SD may try and get more touchdowns with Gates, and Gates scores more TDs than Gonzalez. I'll probably end up changing to Gonzalez though Dunno.
Muhsin Muhammad Carolina WR
Because I can't think of a decent WR to play, and they're playing the Saints, who suck.
Jeff Reed Pittsburgh K
Up against a good defence (Buffalo), and they may rest their better players for the playoffs, so they'll probably kick more.
Baltimore Baltimore TEAM
Ravens - Dolphins.... errrr.....
Javon Walker Green Bay WR
Against the Bears, this still isn't final, but it's really difficult to think who to play.

This time last year though, I knew nothing about American football except that it was hours long, so I never really knew who would win (and I wanted the Patriots to win because the Panthers have a gay strip)
And anyway, Favre did better than COllins.
Murgh.
Team munn this week will win.

The reason that the Superbowl was rubbish was because you KNEW that the Patriots would win. Even when it was close in the 4th quater you knew that they would win, and that's what made it boring. The oakland KC game was excellent - unlucky AJ, but the Colts- Chargers was sublime, especially the last Q. San Diego just collapsed, it was terrible.
As for picking Favre, he didn't do THAT well, and there was no way of predicting that Driver would get more of the ball than Walker. Larry Johnson didn't do that badly AJ, he got quite a few recieving yards and the double points TD. I've still got to watch the 2nd Sunday night game (Patriots Jets - I hope that Jets win but I know that they won't) and MNF, which I'm betting the Eagls lost as they fielded a 2nd string team. Bah

OK, in my defence, it was the first game I ever watched - I tried to watch last years Superbowl, but got jealous at all the sun because it was pouring down with rain.
It probably was crappy, but the last quarter more than made up for it.

Actually as much as i disklike Manning i think the Colts vs Eagles or Falcons would make a good Superbowl
