Fellow football fans football is back! This is a thread to talk about some early predictions and get excited for an awesome sport.
-
Peyton manning will get sacked the first play and burst into dust.

He might have retired if he didn't get blown out in the Super Bowl lol. Mabey if Pollard or Ngata hit him lol.

Early predictions- Well, I am happy to say as an Eagles fan, we have a good shot at the playoffs this year, especially with Nick Foles and LeSean McCoy!!!
Teams I think will have a successful and possibly playoff year:
NFC- Seahawks, Saints, Eagles, and 49ers.
AFC- Patriots, Steelers, Broncos, Ravens.
Comeback year- Probably the Texans. I mean, you cant do any worse than loosing the last 14, right?

Bump. Manziel wow. Bottles, Garopolo, and Logan Thomas look the best out of rookie QBs. No way Patriots pawn off Mallet with that performance. Cardinals look good along with Saints, Buffalo and Denver. What does everyone else think.
-
Everyone here in central Florida is excited about Blake Bortles. I watched the first preseason game and Bortles looked great.
You can never tell with my Patriots. Belichick does not take the preseason seriously. ;)

True :). Easley and Dobson have participated in practice now!
-
I'm a Redskins and Vikings fan. Last season they combined for a total of 8 wins. This season I'm just hoping they can possibly double that amount.
-
Redskins will definitely be better, not really convinced the Vikes have improved enough to win in that division.
-
Titans are lookin better. they beat the packers in the preseason game last weekend, which is an accomplishment in my opinion.

Preseason means nothing. If so the starters would play. But yes the Titans are looking better.
-
I'm a ... Vikings fan. ... This season I'm just hoping they can possibly double that amount.
I'm somewhat biased, since I am a UConn fan, but after seeing Teddy Bridgewater play in the former Big East, I really feel like he is the real deal. He is the only reason that Louisville dominated the division IMO. I was surprised he dropped in the draft. I think Vikings fans will have a lot to be excited about when he becomes the starter.
-
I'd say the general feeling about Teddy up Nort (doncha know) is "cautious optimism".
-
Bridgewater will be fine, it's not like he does not have good run game. ::)
-
I agree that preseason does not reflect a team's potential for the regular season. It is just a good time to see all the new players and upcoming players in the league. This is too bad though, because so far both the Redskins and Vikings are undefeated.

To emphasize that point, the 2008 Lions went 4-0 in the preseason...if anyone doesn't remember what happened after that, let's just say this: their next win was in the 2009 preseason...

Surely you jest....

who cares if preseason means nothing? it's just extra practice and what it means for the titans is for them to show their fans how much they've improved with both Chris Johnson, Mike Munchak, and most of the coaches being gone. im for the ravens as well as titans but im gonna have to give the titans their due, their looking good though the defense needs work, locker needs to stay healthy and I think Michael Oher is our go to guy to lead the titans defense to winning some games, granted if Locker can pull off some unpredictable plays to help us rack up the score, then we may very well see the titans in the playoff picture again.
-
I can almost guarantee you that Buffalo will win the Super Bowl with Tim Tebow as their QB against Johnny Football's Minnesota Vikings after JF gets traded for AP straight up. Remember I am the won that foretold this amazing ness.

I'm just hoping the Jets do better than last year and that the Patriots go 0-18. I think that the latter is possibly more likely. But honestly unless Vick just manages to go ham this year I don't see the Jets doing too well unfortunately.

Jets have some good additions if Geno makes strides in his progress I could see making a playoff berth. Pats going 0-18, impossible there is only 16 games in a season and even if it were possible it wouldn't happen.

good luck considering how you guys picked up recently booted Chris Johnson lol
-
CJ was booted because of his contract issues and I'm not one of those guys I'm Pats fan.

Right 0-16. My bad. Hey if Lions can do it anyone can. ;)
-
Well the Vikings were 4-0 in the preseason, I hope they do not repeat what the Lions did.
Quick update: It was not my intention to jinx the Vikings. I'm a big fan and I have been since I was a kid watching Fran Tarkenton play for them. Go Vikings!

chances are they probably will cause you might have jinxed it :P ;)
-
All I have to say about the Vikings is All Day all day ;).
-
Budump, Cowboys are great, Harvin is a Jet, the fake punt pass works, and Kyle Orton is winning games. Weirdest season ever.

Or as the Raiders are saying, "Just Lose, Baby!"
-
I think we will learn a lot about the Seahawks this week.
I am scared for my steelers playing then Indy Lucks. He is a beast.
I'm going to start a prediction thread for people to put division champs and wild card prediction.
-
we have a winning record in week 7. Orton is Love. Orton is Life.
-
All I gotta say is DALLAS FOR THE WIN!
-
I'm thinking Patriots vs. Cowboys for the Super Bowl. However, I am a Patriots fan and my brother is a Cowboys fan, so I may be a bit biased. ;)

I can see that happening. But oh wait Brady is declining right? 14 TDs in 4 games, over 100 passer rating in each. Just don't think you can go to far with a QB that is in that bad of a decline.
-
The Redskins defense showed shades of the '85 Bears last night. :o
-
With the dynamic duo of Brady and Gronk the Patriots will definitely be contenders.
However, I would like to take a moment to congratulate my two favorite teams, the Vikings and the Redskins. Both won in OT this weekend and with their third starting QB of the season.
Go Vikings! Go Redskins! :)
We are starting our run for a post season slot. :)
-
Thanks guys for supporting my Redskins. That was such a satisfying win last night.
