[quote=skinsfaninok;939061]Rams of course I mean they have no talent, no way should we lose next week.IMO[/quote]

Some people always say that about the Rams and what has been the result the last couple of games? Rams are a lot better than you think.

I understand believe me but this skins team isn't led by rex or jc or whoever, it's a new era my man

You don't think that beating GB in GB is impressive? Especially in a dominating fashion. The Bears play the Niners later this year on a Monday Night, will see. I hate the 49ers worse than the Cowboys and want to see them lose, but they've got a great team, very well balanced all around with a great defense.

I know, but you should always be cautious. The Rams to we will be one of the improved teams this year along with TB.

I would have put New Orleans in that class too, and think they'll rebound, but the Saints did not play well today. We were, flatly, the better team at the Superdome today.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Wow, the tackling by the Denver D is horrible and non-existent.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Don't be surprised if Denver wins their division and goes on a playoff run to possibly the super bowl.

I am sure they can win their division, but they can't make any playoff runs with that type of tackling.

They'll be fine

Saints wish they kept porter

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Denver D showed up. Good game going on in Denver!

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Rapelisburger has been dodging bullets all night.....until now. Int for TD.


Checkmate.

Game over. Thanks for playing and good night.

Basically what Skinsfaninok said, they'll be fine, its one game against a playoff caliber team with lots of quick shifty guys.


Side note, Imagine if we had Peyton Manning (and still drafted RG3) RG3 would have been on the bench today in that win and we still would have been here guessing what he would have been like today, since Peyton would have been starting...ah but luckily its worked out for both teams!

Wow. Just showed broncos next five games. The start of their schedule is just absolutely brutal.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

^ Keep in mind the 5 other teams their about to play are saying the same thing. This is a 2006 Indy looking team.

[QUOTE=CultBrennan59;939132]^ Keep in mind the 5 other teams their about to play are saying the same thing. This is a 2006 Indy looking team.[/QUOTE]

Oh no doubt. Just sayin they got a mean schedule. They are definitely capable of winning alot of them too though.

Think after week one last year, anyone say the Giants were the team to beat?ahhhhhhh no.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

i think chicago has been the most impressive so far. though the skins have definitely been worth a look ;)

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

IIRC we have the Falcons at home this year coming off the bye. We'll know by the end of that game if the Redskins are legit in 2012.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

When it comes to the Bears, I just don't trust Cutler. He doesn't seem to me to be the guy who is going to come through in the clutch. They have a good team around him, their D is solid and they finally have a couple WR's who make people back away from the line. Even so, however, I just don't think they have the "it" to make it that final level.

Atlanta. I am with you on this one GTripp. Matty Ice is going to pull them through.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Laron Landry had a pretty good game yesterday for the J E T S.

Me three on Atlanta. The Falcs are going to have a good year, barring catastrophic injuries.

Losing Brent Grimes for the year won't help the Falcons

thats huge on an already suspect defense. bet they wish they had a C Griff to step in and ball

NFL Referette broke up up a fake post-game fight between former teammates Finnegan and Tulloch.

Funny photo. You'd think the fact they're laughing would give it away that they're just goofing off.

I don't know. The Giants will be circled as the team to beat on every other teams' schedule this year - just because they are the defending Super Bowl champs. That's what's more important than the fans' or media's list.

What is with the MNF broadcast? It has an arena league feel to it.

Marvin Lewis with a huge set of balls going for it on 4th and 1 in the red zone. It worked. Ended with a TD.

Ed Reed is hands down the best safety to have ever play the game. It's not even close.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

The Bengals aren't quite ready for prime time. Ravens taking them behind the woodshed.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Flacco and Matty Ice look like they've moved to that next level of QB. Flacco impressive tonight.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Yes to ed reed @NC

@Matty- The bengals will go 6-10 again this year, it's just how marvin lewis does it. One year decent next bad

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

Bengals were completely unprepared for the pace the Ravens brought with the no huddle. They've just been out of sorts all night.

Re: Around the NFL Week 1
 

The Ravens are missing the defensive player of the year and don't miss a beat. Pretty impressive performance. They look like a complete football team.
