I didn't figure the commercial was on the pages originally. Sucks that he got pushed into Reggie Bush's old role. Pizza hut has some bad commercials.

This is gonna be the Dolphins' year, guys.
But seriously, if Tannehill throws one TD against the Texans I'll be happy enough. Those expectations are probably a bit high but it's week 1 so I'm shooting for the stars.

I have no idea how the reigning champs aren't number one in the power rankings before the season starts...
GB still doesn't have a running game. And how do they know their defense is better when all we've seen are preseason games. Even vegas has fallen in love with GB. Shit is crazy.

At least Old Spice is still reliable.
Although it still doesn't come close to my favorite NFL-related Old Spice Commercial.
The second one also features a realistic depiction of the Pats' tackling abilities.

Lol, they didn't have a running game in 2010 and the Giants didn't have one last year. Welcome to the NFL, you must have been away for the last 5 years.

They only won their division by 1 game last year over 2 different teams.
Number one in a power rankings list should at least be a lock to make the playoffs.
Also lol running games.
Giants run game in the playoffs wasn't bad. Pack didn't have one in 2010 and won, but then when everyone realized it they got booted in 2011 when everyone was like "LOL STARKS?".

but I am a sheep
More power to you man! It is Week 1, the week of uncharted hope!
Hell Stephen Hill says the Jets offense is looking to put on a show, I sure hope so and hopefully it is not a laughable one.

I keep flipping back and forth on the wii-u. I bought the gamecube and wii at launch and hardly played either one. I love the idea of Mario games in HD and I am really hoping they do some 2D Zelda games in HD. I think I might wait though and see what games come out for it.
Did your team lose last year? Yes, and that was part of the reason. The giants were able to tee-off on Rodgers cause they knew Starks/Grant was gonna either fumble or suck a big one. Which they both did. Even KUUUUUUUUHN fumbled, if you don't remember. I can post the link to the vid if you want.
Did you watch that game or did the shame of getting decimated get to you?
"Even Kuhn" as though he is some sort of decent player? Rodgers played like garbage and missed a number of throws, that's why the Packers lost. They got destroyed far worse than the score and the only thing that kept them in it was the refs. Having a running game would only serve to take the ball out of the best player in the leagues hands, and that is moronic.
The Packers improving their running game wouldn't make them better, it would make them less efficient.

This should be fun:
Eli Manning in the bench? 2012 is his time to get elite, c'mon.
Couldnt it also get the best player in the league critically injured?
My money is on 50% contrite, 25% ashamed, 25% false bravado.
Only if his stupid ass doesn't slide fast enough.

What is more likely to happen this season?
• In an effort to spark his slumping team, Jeff Fisher shaves his mustache in November.
• By November, Mike Shanahan is starting a running back that we haven't talked about at all this summer.
• In a moment of confusion, Bill Belichick discloses useful injury information about one of his own players.

Giants related news: restructured RG Chris Snee's contract, frees up about $3M reportedly. I'm hoping they have some move/s planned to help upgrade the depth at guard. Petrus was re-signed but he was really poor in the pre-season and as it stands heading against the Cowboys tomorrow, he's the top backup to Boothe and Snee.

But... it HAS to happen sometime, right? And Bill is not infallible. One day he might reboot and reveal that one of his players is actually hurt and that Tom Brady has lady parts.

I know some people who went to a screening of this at MetLife last... Thursday, I think. I didn't get impression but set to record tonight, then off the season opener tomorrow.

The Cards will score more points than the Jets this week and we have the worst OL in the league and no real QB.
However we are playing a rookie QB and we have never lost to a rookie QB in week 1 even if Scam threw for like 400yds last year.

Everybody shitting on the Jets. Can't wait for the narrative to completely change after one game. The Bills are who we thought they were.

It's because the Jets didn't use their playbook in preseason. can't wait for them and Tebows wildcat package to unleash fury on the bills.
But Accuscore says the Bill will win 12 games!
I'm expecting a loss week one for the Bills because the styles don't match up. Don't have enough weapons to win outside in open sets, just invites the Jets to blitz.
That said, they should have won the second game against the Jets, a game where they went closed, more two TE looks. Stevie wrecked Revis all game, but dropped the money ball that would've sealed the deal. In that second game they had no Fred Jackson, no Eric Wood, no Kyle Wiliams, and Andy Levitre was playing LT.
So yeah, the Jets do suck, they're incompetent on offense and nothing will change that. They'll keep the point differential close because of their D, so they could luck into a few more wins than they should.

Wildcat got damn, we've gone back to 2007. Although Ronnie Brown can throw a better ball than Tebow.
They win if they don't give the Jets extra possessions. I don't think you give that offense enough credit.

Tebow can't throw a shortball but he can throw a deep ball very well and one that is actually catchable by a receiver. Having that ability out of the wildcat package is big.

What offense? Fitzpatrick was one of the few QBs who were actually worse than Mark Sanchez last season.
Dude ran hot for a few games and got paid and then turned back into the shit QB he is.

It's weird to see Sparano giving another team hope. I almost feel bad for you Jets fans.
I was actually talking about the Jets offense.

Go Routes every play then? Fuck Tebow and all the bullshit he brings with him, I don't mind the Jets but seriously FUCK TEBOW!!! I don't care if it's blasphemous I'll take the damn risk.
Just feel the #2 WR is our biggest weakness. They're going to leave Steve on Revis, double Chandler and Nelson depending on the formation. It really comes down to the #2 guy, can he win.
The real test is stopping the Jets run game. Jets rushing total last 6 games against the Bills.
23/138
39/126
50/276
49/273
43/249
40/318 and they lost this one because Sanchez threw 4 or 5 ints.
They're always in 3rd and short.
The Bills have a considerably better offense than the Jets, though. D is good enough to stop that explosive Jets attack.
Only way we lose this one is if Fitzpatrick has a terrible game. I don't see that happening with everyone fresh.
