I love that bye, but I'd like to have played Dallas later in the year again.

I like it except playing philly in their house after their bye and playin indy in their house after their bye, and the giants in their place after their bye. That really sucks. I LOVE weeks one and two in primetime, love the season closing game on primetime against the G-men when they will be weak and tired from 13 stright weeks of football and i love our week 8 bye. Also really like our chances of going 3-0 to start the season.

The finale with the Giants coming into FedEx for a nationally televised game on Saturday night will be awesome. The division could be decided right then, right there.

Yes, definitely. And here's to Andre Carter welcoming Mike Vick back to the D.C. area!

The Giants game is going to be on the NFL station.

[Twilbert07]

NFL Network is nationwide, though I guess not everyone has cable.

I'd like to say something about the Colts. First, let me start off by saying Peyton Manning is one of the better QB's ever to play the game. Of course, to a lesser extent, so is Brunell. But it's hard right now to not look at that offense at one dimensional. Their running game certainly wasn't a product of their offensive line last year. It was mostly Edge with a bit of respect for PA from Manning. But that O-line is weak, espicially at guard. Without the running game, the effectiveness of the play action pass will definately take a hit.

For the Colts to make the playoffs, that defense will have to be better than it was this year. Call me crazy, but with a lot of people predicting a loss right before the bye week, I'd be SHOCKED if we don't win a close one there.

Also, I think it's a great thing that we get them after their bye week. Although teams tend to get hot in the games to follow a bye, the week after is usually a tough week to win.

If you do not have NFL Network will it be broadcasted on ABC? Just like the Sunday Night Games did?

I don't think it will be. I believe last season they were just a repeat of the ABC games but I'm not sure. They did announce that the NFL Network would televise 8 games this season and you would think they would be exclusive to their Network.

Yes, the games that are on NFL Network will also be shown on regular broadcast networks in the home market. What station that is I am not sure...

[dirthogs311]

But I think they have to show your home team games either or ABC or UPN 20

when a game is nationally televised on cable (ESPN), a local affiliate (in the DC area, usually Channel 7) will pick up the feed. Not sure that'll work with NFL Network games, but I guess we'll wait and see. I don't see why it wouldn't.
