NFL 2006 Season Thread
With preseson pretty much over the regular season is finally here.. YUS!!
First game is Thursday.. Miami at the defending SuperBowl champion Pittsburg Steelers.. Should be a great game.. I am kinda a Pitt mark because of their defense but the Dolphins are looking like a serious threat in the AFC.. Also, before a single reg season game is played let us predict the AFC and NFC championship games.. AFC Steelers/Colts NFC Cowboys/Saints :shifty: Discuss, bitches.. |

If you people think I'm being a homer, you are right.

I also told myself not to give into the Arizona hype before this offseason, so I'm going to stick with my gut on that one.
I also think that the New York Giants could even make it to the Super Bowl (in fact, I would say that they are the fourth most likely team to do that in the NFC this year). But, there is going to have to be one team that underperforms in that division this year, and my prediction is them, them or Washington or Philadelphia. I took the pussy route on teams like Oakland and Houston, since predicting their sucktitude compared to other teams in their division is near impossible. |
As good as Miami may be this year, they won't make the Superbowl. I still think the Patriots will win the division. Also, how do you change your avatar to a football team.

Patriots are winning the AFC East
|
Yes, they are.

<font color=goldenrod>NFC East is easily the best division in football, but I still have to give the nod to the Giants. It's just so close that you almost have to pick the team who won the previous year. Of all the teams, I think they have the least flaws. All 11 offensive starters returning is gonna be huge if you ask me. Gonna be a fun year and September 10th can't get here soon enough.</font>

Could they win the AFC East? Of course they could. But the fact that anyone could actually say that they might not, undermining the wonderful "genius" of Bill Belichick, is now a taboo in football. If the Patriots were in, say, New Orleans, people would have stopped caring for them a long time ago. |

that would explain why the Pats are 2-2 against Miami the past two seasons wouldn't it
|
The last thing this forum needs is another pompous New England Patriots fan.
|
DrA I wouldn't be surprised if we see TO and Parcells go at it. I bet TO will do something to piss Parcells off and we have them say shit about each other on TV. It seems inevitable.
|
Looks like Priest Holmes is done. :(
http://www.nfl.com/teams/story/KC/9624338 The odds of seeing Priest Holmes on the field this season got much longer when the Kansas City Chiefs put the three-time Pro Bowl running back on the "physically unable to perform" list. |

I still think the Patriots are better than Miami, the team has definetly got a huge upgrade at the QB position though so we'll see. Tully Banta-Cain, tackling your favorite player soon. BANTA-CAIN FOR MVP |

2006 Dolphins= 2004 Seahawks and 2005 Vikings
AFC Championship Indianapolis vs Chowds NFC Championship Packers vs Giants Superbowl Colts vs Packers I'm basically picking the Colts based on the fact that they have to win sometime right? Oh yah and Bob Sanders. Colts Packers Superbowl would be the best Superbowl ever. |
<font color=goldenrod>Some curious decisions by the Giants...carrying 10 O-Linemen and only 2 TEs despite the fact that Wade Fletcher and Darcy Johnson were working their asses off for that #3 TE spot and its pretty much out of balance now (they have 3 backup offensive tackles...FFS, just put someone on the practice squad and use the other spot on another TE, CB, or DT)
-edit- Damn, just found out the Packers signed Charlie Peprah :(</font> |

The Patriots have lived past their shelf life and it's time for another team to step up and take that division. |
Also, why is everyone so quick to put Carolina in the Super Bowl?
Yes, they probably will be a good team and be in the mix to be the best NFC team, but I don't see anything that makes them ridiculously better than what they were the last couple of years. They kinda look like a shell of that Super Bowl team they had three years ago in my opinion. |
great offense great defense. Makes sense to me.

The whole TO/Parcells thing is just going to be one of those things that the media is going to scrutinize and take out of proportion all year long. I'm not saying that nothing will happen, but it's unlikely at this point. |
