Preseason Football begins in ten days!

[pure_mercury]

Is everyone prepared? This is going to be a hell of an NFL season. Predictions? Fears? Michael Vick jokes? Let's hear it.

 

[Nonsensical]

I don't know much about NFL, as par as teams go and players go, but I watch it every year and my father is a die hard football fan. I end up watching it almost every night it is on with him.

I'm really psyched for this season. I got really into it at the end of last year, and the superbowl (though disappointing) was a blast.

Yawn. Now when college football starts, THEN we have some excitement!

College football is really fun, but you can't not enjoy the highest level of football being played.

college football is the highest level of football in Texas.

but really, people where i live are pretty big Cowboys fans. but they turn on the Cowboys at the drop of a hat. they really berate them sometimes. what's the deal with that??

i'm an Eagles fan.

I agree with this.

An Eagles fan in Texas? I may cry from joy. It's like finding a proud redneck in San Francisco

Knocking the Cowboys out of the playoffs and backdooring our way in was as good as winning the NFC Championship four years ago for me. Seriously, it was like a Christmas present. GO BIRDS!

P.S. Stewart Bradley is out for the season with a torn ACL, which sucks, but Jeremy Maclin was signed today. Also, the Eagles may have signed DE/OLB Jason Babin. Things are still looking good.

 

[Clonester]

Chargers better win this year. Having our key guys healthy in the playoffs would be great also.

 

[JocktheMotie]

I love the Giants. Probably the only time I get emotional, is when I watch football. Sometimes I get sick when they lose a bad game. Glad Pierce dodged a bullet [] by not getting indicted, we'll see how Eli does without the Plax safety net. Younger guys need to step up, but I can't shake the "Romo sheds TO AND Jessica Simpson in the same season and winds up reinvigorated" theme. NFC East is where it's at.

oh shit, i hadn't heard about Bradley! and i thought he was going to dominate this year. that must have just happened, real recently?
what do you think about Brodrick Bunkley? i think he has the potential to be a great tackle this year.

i totally agree with knocking the Cowboys out on Christmas day - as good as the NFC championship! and on christmas day, how amazing was that?
you are right that was a perfect christmas present! i have great memories of watching that game!

that's how we do.
i take a piece of philly with me everywhere.

I love the Giants.

blasphemy!
the only thing worse than the Cowboys is the Giants!

Don't get your hopes too high guys, now that Brady is back and healthy I expect huge things to happen this coming season. Plus we got Fred Taylor and Joey Galloway so the chains are going to keep moving on offense this season. I truelly believe that this team is better than the 18-1 team of 07.

They're going to have to keep the chains moving with that secondary. I see a lot of shootouts in the Patriots' future.

Our secondary got revamped, right now they have a lot of potential and it's head and toes better than last season. Just a quick note, we had the 11th ranked pass defense last year so I am not going to lose any sleep over our secondary.

You need to get better blow jobs.

Fred Taylor is great...when he's actually suited up. That's always been a problem with him.

I don't know how you can say that this team is better than the 18-1 team. Until you see how Brady performs in a game, you can't know if he'll be as good as he used to be.

By the way, the preseason started this past Sunday (8/9, Titans vs Bills).

I can't freakin' wait.

Aaron Rodgers better put out.

Is everyone prepared? This is going to be a hell of an NFL season. Predictions? Fears? Michael Vick jokes? Let's hear it.

Predictions -

* The Texans finally break their playoff cherry.
* The Chargers finally put it all together.
* The Falcons show they are for real.
* The Dolphins show they are not.
* The Colts run out of spackle.
* Everyone is jizzing over Rex Ryan by midseason.
* The NFC East again has every team finish at least .500
* 9-7 wins the NFC West again.
* Josh McDaniels and the new Denver regime get hung in effigy by November.
* The Browns and Bucs compete for the #1 pick in 2010.
* The Giants and the Chargers play in the Super Bowl.

Fears -

* Winston Justice backing up Shawn Andrews is like putting out a fire with gasoline. Actually, pretty much the entire Eagles offensive line qualifies as my fear.
* The Cowboys getting their heads out of their asses.

Vick Jokes -

* Can't wait for the first time he gets in a game, does his usual "I have no idea how to read a defense" face, and some announcer says he's "dogging it".

I love the Giants Jets.

Keeping my fingers crossed for Mark Sanchez, but Pats will most likely represent AFC East.
Predicting Giants in Superbowl. Maybe Steelers or Pats. I could also see Vikings...

Or maybe YOU just need a better football team!
