In many ways the season is being determined right now.

Detroit and San Francisco look like strong contenders with young teams and sterling, developing defenses.

Will Suh mature? If so the Lions could have a defensive line comparable to the Cowboys and Steelers of the 70's when excellent D-line play is the only way to slow down today's passing game.

With the veteran teams, Pats, Steelers, Packers, and Saints be able to acquire help for their anemic defenses?

Will the Eagles play up to their talent this year?

Is Robert Griffin what the Doctor ordered for the Skins?

Will Cam Newton mature as a leader while the Panthers are built around him?

Which team will be Peyton's place?

What comments do y'all have about the draft and free agent season?

That would be bad for Detroit. But I think he will. He is a smart kid. He knows what is at stake and every effort is being made to educate him.

Hard to educate a reaction involving a short temper combined with a violent tendancy. I am not saying it can NOT be done but that is some deep shit. IMO he's got a serious character flaw because he just "reacts".

LOL!!!   Watch out Brady!!!!!

Thanks j-boy that is the biggest laugh I have had all week!

I do respect him as athlete and his character is admirable but.....

J'ville is the place for Tebow. He can sell Jags jerseys to the Gator faithful.

The man needs to become a tight end or full back and open the field with the threat of occasional throwing. The Pats defense ate him alive. He is not ready for good NFL defenses.

I agree, JtS. Flash in the pan big story to sell tickets. Unless he matures a lot, he'll never be more. BUT... where is the best place for him to mature? I know it's not HIS call but I think I know where he would LIKE to go in order to have a (possibly) better future as a QB. It ain't really all that big a laugh if you look at it from T-Bo's angle, no?

Tebow will always be a star. Maybe not in football. If he was old enough, the GOP would probably nominate him for President.

I guess the ownership there wants to hear even more complaining about Sanchez.

ARE YOU READY?

I gotta go with the Giants at home. I figure Bradshaw is gonna get a few carries tonight (not that Jacobs won't, of course) and if the Giants secondary doesn't get burned by Romo Bob's yer uncle.

I read that Dallas spent a lot of energy on it's secondary... they had to. >;-) I am anxious to see how Murray performs. About 900 (800? I think it was 900?) yards in 13 games as a rookie is impressive.

Anyway, I've got beer and healthy snacks and I am looking forward to watching the first half.

GO PATS!

NFC East will be very interesting this year. With RG3 at Washington all their divisional games will draw interest.

Likewise the NFC South has, I believe, 3 playoff contenders with New Orleans, Atlanta and Carolina. Tampa looks to take a beating in the division.

The north is still strong but maybe not as powerful as last year and SF and Seattle will battle in the west.

From: Jack the Sailor
Date: 08 Sep 12 - 07:41 PM

The pundits I have read pick Seattle but I like SF a little more than that.

The AFC has a lot of questions, New England a year older. Manning in Denver, Baltimore defense a year older, Houston? Pittsburgh? Cinci? who knows lots of good teams, but questionable improvement.

Oh my fuck. Not only do I not believe what just happened in Patsland but... I'll just say I am losing my interest in the NFL at a great rate a fuckin nauts. That was shit. Plain, obvious shit. How the fuck do you throw a game in broad daylight SO Many times IN 60 fuckin minutes and expect fans to tune in next week? I feel 8 years old again and the big kid just nailed me in the nuts with the puck. IS EVERY FUCKIN SPORT FIXED FER FUCK SAKE?

We just found out that MLS is (well, HAS been) fixed. I just watched the Owskis throw a game... unless they just coudn't handle the pressure and came apart?

Sorry but that is they way I feel. If I didn't see it right, and someone believes I am wrong, maybe... oh, nevermind... I was thinking about spending more time in the kitchen anyway. I decide what *I* fix for eats in my kitchen.

Did I say, "Oh my fuck."?

Biscuits... yeah... fresh biscuits, molasses, fried ham and eggs... I wonder who is playing later.
