Official NFL 2006 Season Thread

The NFL Season starts tonight!! Dolphins-Steelers start if off. I heard Big Ben will not be playing this game. I still give the edge to the Steelers though. Then Sunday pits my Cowboys vs Jags. Jags are a pretty tough defensive team. Should be a great battle. Can't wait!

 

[Sanz]

Colts and Patriots are over-rated. I think Dolphins, Broncos and Bengals(If CP is fit) are going to shine in AFC this year. I dont think Boys are going anywhere close to SB. Lookout for Panthers (again).

Btw my tonight's pick is Dolphins over the Steelers.

You watch your tongue!

Steelers start off the NFL season with a win over the Dolphins. Pretty impressive considering Big Ben didn't play. Sanz, you should have more faith in your team!

what do you mean??? For most of DCs career he has had perfectly reasonable Interception % stats, and thats whilst playing in one of the more vertical passing games in the league.

Now if you were talking about fumbles, then I would see what you mean!!!

My 'Boys start off with a loss against the Jags. The Jags are a good team, so there is no shame losing to them. Drew had a bad game. Critical int's that cost us. TO had a good game in a losing cause. Oh well, on to week 2!

the rams beating denver with their kicking game ah well that'll play

The Vikes won in Washington.....great start for us.

Toughy at home to Panthers next week, if Carolina play like they did on Sunday, we might have a chance

IMO, the NFC is wide open for the taking. Any number of teams have a legitimate shot at being the NFC representative to the Superbowl. That includes the Giants, Cowboys, Seahawks, Panthers, and the Buccaneers. I would think that Seattle is the favorite to beat from the NFC. It should make for a very interesting season, what with all these teams thinking they have a legitimate shot to win it all!

only one of those 5 you mentioned won this week.

I think Dallas and the Buccs are only just about 9-7 standard, would be very surprised if either really challenged for the NFC title this year (esp. Buccs)

Carolina has a weakness against Atlanta but I expect them to roll over Vikes next week, although after watching GreenBay play I am not sure about my bet I made early in this thread.
