"NFL Season starts again"

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

Did you just watch teh Vikings - Packers game?

i WISH i'D PICKED dRIVER.

Gah.
Caps lock sucks.

Indeed they are.

And swap Chiefs with Raiders for overall defense. Raiders 30th and Chiefs 31st. Not that it really matters.

Wow.

New Orleans are 32nd in defence overall, aren't they.

I can't wait for Raiders-Chiefs tomorrow.

Raiders are 31st in pass defense.
Chiefs are 32nd in pass defense.

Raiders are 31st in defense overall.
Chiefs are 30th in defense overall.

I can't wait.

AJ's prediction: Raiders win 48-45 in OT. Oh yes.

No he's been back about 5 games and in the first game back he barely could run at all. I know because I watched it.

In Moss's last two games he's scored a touchdown, and got 100+ receiving yards.
He's only been back 3 games or so.

Maybe they'll lose to the Seahawks.
I would be happy with that.
As long as they beat the Rams on Monday.

He said he'll be the team's best cheerleaders up until the superbowl. Even if he does make it back he'll be a Randy Moss type gingerly running and not much of a threat. The Eagles can still do it, but they'll probably lose to a Wild Card (please God not Carolina or Tampa again) in the NFC game.

He himself said he'd be out to the Superbowl at the least on an interview on NASN

Up to.
I've also heard that he could be out for jsut one game.

Although I did hear this on Wednesday, it may have changed.
