The OFFICIAL 2015 NFL Thread

Found it interesting that Aaron Rodgers was talking during the Packers vs Saints game about how he thought four pre-season games was too many. Obviously it's more a chance for the younger second string players to get a run out, but makes me wonder how important they actually are considering all the focus is obviously on the season itself. Also suggested that it's more political with the revenue it brings in, etc.

As a Washington fan I'd love to have a season as bad as the Raiders will have!

 

[Shatner's Bassoon]

Has anybody got any tips/predictions for the season then? I fancy the Colts from the AFC, and one of the Eagles, Packers or Seahawks from the NFC.

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Very good, I love the Gronk moves as well

As a Colts fan I am very sceptical of the hype we are getting. O-line is patchwork, D-line has not improved, Art Jones is out and as it stands we have 1 DT on the entire roster. Not convinced we won't get run over, as we have every season. Offensive weapons, but stocking up on receivers is like adding a coat of paint to a car with no engine. Fear another strong season from New England especially after this whole offseason debacle.

Packers seem to be the trendy NFC pick of the moment, think they will do well. I think Zona will have a chance if Palmer stays healthy in the West.

My dark horses would be San Diego and Minnesota.

I wouldn't be so down on it, I still foresee a losing season but in Amari Cooper they have a potential great. I think Carr and Murray will go well this year and Crabtree is quite a shrewd pick up.

Must admit, I don't fancy the defence on any way whatsoever.

I never realized what a big rivalry the Packers and Bears has become. Even with the Bears down for a while the excitement in Chicago is brewing over the top.

As a Broncos fan I hope your season meets your expectations!

[Lyndhurst 14]

Local paper has given their picks from 8 correspondents for the season:

NFC Champs – Seahawks (4), Eagles (2), Cowboys (2)

AFC Champs – Colts (4), Ravens (1), Steelers (1), Broncos (1), Pats (1)

Super Bowl winners – Seahawks (3), Pats (1), Cowboys (1), Colts (3)

We shall see……………………..

I'm hoping the hospital wi-fi is quiet enough to let me get enough bandwidth to watch the opener on SkyGo tonight. I'm bound to wake up in the night so might as well take the opportunity

 

[Lyndhurst 14]

After all the court room shenanigans it was time for Brady to do what he does best. 4 TD passes in the Steelers v Pats game, with Pats taking it 28-21, with the Steelers getting a TD in the dying seconds. My boss, a big Pats and Brady fan, says that for a while all non-Pats fans will probably view every Pats win as suspicious and see Brady as the Lance Armstrong of the NFL. Funny old game.

 

[thedonkeycentrehalf]

From what I watched between naps, the Steerlers missed a few opportunities. Scobie missing two field goals didn't help their cause.

Thought the Steelers put up a really good fight. There was a moment in the game where a fumble could have launched a Steelers attack which may have changed the outcome of the game but which instead turned into a Pats touchdown, which I think was where it ultimately ended the game.
