Slayer 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 Tampa has nearly quadruple the total yardage of the Vikings, 230-60 And the Vikings get booed as they leave the field for halftime <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They should just be glad guns aren't allowed in. I have a feeling more than boos will be flying if they have a second half like the first half they just had. In over a decade of Viking fandom, I think this is the first time I've ever heard them get booed at home. Vikings fans aren't known for turning on their own team (not like, say, Philly). It's the Minnesota hospitality thing... but I guess it's already been exhausted in a couple of hours Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still, it IS the first game of the season. The only team I think that is showing an accurate picture of the season are the Titans cause they are just too damn young. WAY too young.

So the Bears defense will get a second chance to end his NFL career. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Poor Joe Gibbs. Just call it a "Interesting expirement" and move away from Football for good. Not only that, he has been not needed for his Nascar team as they have done well without him. Just go golf and live your life. The old man just loves stress and long hours in the office.

Not that it matters to this, but still. And holy crap, the Bears have a touchdown. They will actually lead it seems, unless the kicker blows the kick. Skins fumbled the opening kickoff and the Bears ACTUALLY took advantage. Orton has looked decent enough, lot of drops by his receivers but he looks very good on the td drive.

Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted September 11, 2005 The Panther went to the Super Bowl the year before last and had alot of players injured last year. Despite that, they still played hard and almost made the playoffs. That's why they're favorites. This runing back for the Steelers is either really good, or the Titans suck at defending the run.

He took anger management classes you know? The NFL needs the yearly "Ryan Leaf tries out, makes a team, plays one game so badly they cut him the same day" event.

Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 Willie Parker is a very good running back. He lit up Buffalo last year in the last game of the season, when Buffalo was fighting for their playoff lives as the "hottest team in the NFL~" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MikeSC Report post Posted September 11, 2005 Did Buffalo go retro uniform for good, or is this a one game deal? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> One shot deal.

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 I think that was the plan by the Titans. You bring in Norm Chow, you blow the season, you draft Matt Leinart once Steve McNair gets his legs broken in the regular season when the line forgets to block for him, and you pick some second round wide-outs. Then you teach Travis Henry to stop fumbling the ball. See? Simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
