Only time will tell though, eh?

Speaking of TB, I've actually been excited to see how the Bucs run this year. Despite a less-than-impressive preseason, I can't wait to see how they play against Dallas on Sunday.

You're one of only two Giants fans I've met in my life. Sad.

lol, and we haven't actually met

Tampa... Interesting team, I reckon they will play above themselves this week and keep it quite close, if not pip it in the end, but as the year continues class (Or lack thereof) should shine through, Lefty will get worse as the year goes on (Opening up the spot for JJ or Freeman to get some reps in) whilst Ward is average as a runner, Cadillac won't actually hold up to a full season, but I do like Graham for his perceived 'skill level'.

Not to mention its time for Bryant to have a year off isn't it?

I am interested in the Dline as well, esp. with Bates being taken in as D coordinator (His Ds have averaged a mighty 40 sacks per season since 00/01, which ever he was first hired full time including Taylor's beastly year), and its time for Adams to step up. Will be weird to see Tampa NOT lined up in the Tampa-2 thats for sure.

This is the main thing I'm interested in. I've heard talk of change, and how it'll be something to pay attention too.
I've never liked Tampa, so it's odd for me to be drawn into them this year, I'm still learning all the players and such.

Atlanta
Nawleans
Carolina (D has been **** and I expect it to continue TBH)
Tampa

Ah the Saints, another team I'll be keeping an eye on.

Ever since I moved down to Bama, I'v found that NFL takes a back seat to NCAA, but those few who like the NFL are die-hard Saints fans. I admire the feverity of the love for N'awLins down here.
(More over, the girlfriend's Dad is a Saints fan. So if I'm staying there on the weekends, I'll be watching.

They had a pretty nice pre-season, all in all.

It seems I'll have my plate full with games this year.

True dat! My homie lives in Enterprise and he is all about NCAA and roll tide roll etc...

Anyone got picks for tonights game? I'm praying to god my Bills dont get blown out too bad.

Pats over Bills. (Though I wish it were the other way.)
Chargers over Raiders.

It feels like a really cut and dry night.

And yeah, my girlfriend just got denied during a job interview because she was a Crimson Tide fan (The boss of the place was an Auburn fan.)

I agree with the picks, even though it hurts my heart a little.

Thats the kind of shit my buddy was talking about, it must be a brutal rivalry.

I dont even want to talk about what just happened.
If I were Jauron I would fire Leodis McKelvin.

Honestly, I'm beyond surprised at how that went down. It looked like the Bills had more than a chance, more than I thought anyway.
