Football 08!

So it's that time again... brief thoughts.

AFC: The Chargers are 0-2 and LT is already hurt, good work guys. At least Sproles looks sick.
Carolina is... 2-0? Really? Who'd of thought. These guys are pretty good at pulling plays out of the backside at the last moment, oh and Jake looks pretty good despite the surgery.
G-Men looking good romping on bad teams and making betters happy.
NE's season lasted 8 minutes, yet they will most likely make the playoffs anyway. How befuddling.
Tennssee has to be considered the worst 2-0 team in the league. Just awful and the entire Vince Young saga is just weird.
Indy - HJAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, nice loss to Chicago. The offense has derailed, for Colts fans that O-line has to get better quickly. You were a Taravis Jackson inspired trainwreck away from 0-2.

NFC: Dallas is starting very similar to last year, which means they'll be losing in the playoffs to a team that can play defense.
Both Bay Area teams will enjoy comfy positions in the bottom six slots of any power rankings starting from week 4 onward. Possibly week 3 if SF manages to find a way to lose to the comically inept Lions.
Speaking of which, just how bad are the Lions?
Minnesota... disappointing.
GB looks great.

thoughts? annoyances? happiness?

Even for a skeptic, Brady's injury is at least prima facie evidence that there is a God.

I am a Browns fan.... our season is already in the shitter.

[Apollyon]

New England will just have to be the early 2000s team, winning through defense. They probably won't go 16-0 again, but they are still a really good team.

This looks to be one of the most interesting seasons in a while.

At least you can take some solace in the fact that the Bengals are awful as well again.

Losing to Miami after barely beating two atrocious teams isn't exactly what I'd label 'good'.

[Apollyon]

While Miami is a much improved team, the Patriots played terrible football that game, especially on offense. Their inability to put together a real drive led to the defense running out of gas.

I still think that the Patriots can go 10-6 without the MVP. Matt Cassel is having the same issues that all new QBs have. It's going to be a rocky season, but not too many teams get better when their starting QB goes down for the year.

I hope you die.

Or at least never beat Shay again.

The Miami game was pretty bad, but I really think that'll turn out to be the exception and not the rule. I still think the Patriots have enough talent for 10-6 and maybe a playoff run. The AFC East will depend on if the Bills turn out to be a flash in the pan or a legit contender.
