tunaplanet 0 #1 September 9, 2004 And so it begins. Excellent game tonight. 2 of the 3 best AFC teams head to head. Should be great. Going to go ahead and make my Super Bowl prediction before the season starts... Patriots vs Eagles Forty-two Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 September 9, 2004 Meh. I wonder if TCU will have another good year and I wonder if the Sooners will do as well as everyone thinks they will.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
usedtajump 1 #3 September 9, 2004 Even though I was born in and lived in Dallas most of my life, being a Dallas Cowboy fan since the franchise started in 1960 and hating the Eagles more than the Redskins all this time, I hope the Eagles win the Superbowl this year. I really hoped they would go last year but they just can't seem to get past the NFC Championship game. I guess I'm a Philly fan this year.The older I get the less I care who I piss off.

tunaplanet 0 #4 September 9, 2004 Kearse and Owens were huge pick-ups this year. Basically you have 3 teams to beat in each conference. NFC - Eagles, Rams and Panthers. AFC - Patriots, Colts and Chiefs. Forty-two Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #9 September 9, 2004 QuoteNFC - Eagles, Rams and Panthers. AFC - Patriots, Colts and Chiefs. NFC - yeah, the Eagles should be okay. Owens and Kearse are huge, but we'll have to wait and see whether Kearse is healthy (effective) again, and we'll see if TO can change my mind about his punk ass. Rams I am still in doubt about. They've got a solid core, but I think the Seahawks are the darkhorse here. THe team looks damned good, since solid coaching is now making itself evident. I'll stick to the Panthers, too. As far as the AFC goes, I am still not sold on the Chiefs defense. And Priest Holmes is gettign beat up. I think the West will be a toss up between the Chiefs, Raiders and Broncos. I can't put my money on my beloved Raiders, especially with suspect linebackers, but the defensive line is SOLID and the backfield is fine. The Patriots are probably better than last year. And the Colts cannot be counted out of a SB run. I need to get home early tonight to watch the game, but I won't. And never count out a Brian Billick coached team (the Ravens).

tunaplanet 0 #13 September 12, 2004 Hey, Lawrocket. You're right about TO. Guess he's not that good afterall Sorry about your Raiders. Tough game. Don't feel bad. Both mine (Bucs) and Dagny's (Aints) teams got pummeled. Not a good day for me So yeah, anytime you want to apologize about my expert perspective at identifying great players (specifically WRs that came from a certain Bay Area team and end up playing for one that is famous for choking when it counts) let me know Forty-two Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Croc 0 #14 September 12, 2004 Despite the Colts loss to the evil Pats, the Colts will win 14 games and make it to the Superbowl. They looked too good Thursday--a fumble away from beating the world champs. Despite the two fumbles James looked like his (pre-injury) self, and the Colts line ruled."Here's a good specimen of my own wisdom. Something is so, except when it isn't so."

tunaplanet 0 #15 September 12, 2004 Manning is a question mark when it comes to the big games. The Colts will not make it to the SB. They are however one of the 3 top teams in the AFC. Forty-two Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #16 September 13, 2004 I was very surprised to see the Broncos offense do well tonight (despite Plummer's two stupid interceptions to start the 2nd half) and the defense did very well against one of the leagues top offenses. Maybe there is hope for this team after all to win the AFC West. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #17 September 13, 2004 I'm not ready to hop on the TO bandwagon yet. I must admit, though, he and McNabb have chemistry. 3 TD's ain't no joke. ON top of that, McNabb's numbers looked pretty balanced as far as spreading the ball around. Raiders. Upsetting, yes (Bettis had a strange stat - 5 rushes, 1 yard, 3 TD's. WTF?) Boy, did my boy Gannon make a couple of stoopid throws. Impressions? 1) Chiefs ain't all they're advertised as 2) Broncos are better than I expected 3) Raiders are right where I thought they'd be 4) Steelers, if they jel, could be playoff contenders 5) Eagles impressed (should be a great game next week at MN), and TO acted like a receiver, and Eli Manning would make a good pinball 6) Seattle's shitting about Alexander 7) Cincy might stick with tradition 8) Browns over the Team Formerly Known as The Browns is always nice!

CanuckInUSA 0 #19 September 13, 2004 I agree with many of your impressions. But let's also not forget that it's only the end of week one. There will no doubt be many more WTF ... how did that happen games. If I was to pick two teams out of the hat to be in Super Bowl today, I would pick Philly versus the Pats. But injuries and team chemistry could have much to say before the season is done. It should be an interesting year.
