Ah what the hell, might as well give this a go. There seems to be a few of us on TiBB who are American Football fans so thought I'd try set up a thread to discuss the NFL throughout the season on the first sunday of the season

Not a great start for my team, the Denver Broncos. I've learnt not to be optimistic this year after the last two seasons where I thought we'd be certs for the playoffs (6-0 to 8-8 wtf), but I was still hoping we could achieve a win over the Jags. There were some positives, Orton had a pretty good game, Moreno looked better, defence was ok I suppose although theres room for improvement, namely with our pass rush. Glad to see the Raiders lose tonight though!

Good to see Channel 4 are showing Sunday Night Football again by the way, and ESPN are now showing Monday Night Football I believe

I watched a bit of it on Sky last year so might try and get into a bit more this season.

NE Patriots

[Ramsay]

Detriot Lions"

Pre-Season starting tonight.

The Pats game is about to kick off, there are a few streams on MyP2P but you'll need stream torrent for the best ones.

[MTVN]

Haha this thread completely died, I blame Claymores, he said it would be a good idea to start it

Thanks for that Boothy, I'd forgotten actually, might try find a stream

[Boothy]

I was gonna make a new one for this season but thought I'd do a search just in case one already existed. I didn't expect it to be half dead

Hopefully it might get a bit busier this season.

[Wildcat!]

What is the stream for the pats game! And is it on ESPN!
I want to watch the cowboys Broncos game, but it would be really hard to find. I think its only on Local TV in the Dallas Ft WOrth area. BUt with all the cowboys fans, you never know!

[Boothy]

LOL! Lichael Vick just got a 6 years, $100 million extension.

The haters, and animal lovers, are gonna be sooo gutted!!!
Cant wait to go read the yahoo hatefest!

He definitely isnt worth that kind of money, but the NFL salaries are so ridiculous now, he might as well get paid, and more power to him imo!

If Vick can stay healthy, he can potentially be the the most dangerous QB in the league. It's nice to see that the Eagles are basically saying that they're full on behind Vick, something that wasn't true this time last year.

The thing is, he is not gonna be as good this year. Their Offensive line especially the tackles are as good, he is gonna struggle a bit. Dont get me wrong, I think MIchael Vick is great, and everything, but to think he is worth $100 million, is crazy! These NFL owners have lost their minds off late I think, with the ridiculous extensions theve been given. You just need to play great for a season, and you are set for life. As a result, not only is it unlikely for lightning to strike twice, but once youve got a long contract extension, with guaranteed money, the motivation isnt even there anymore. PLayers should be getting 2, 3 years extensions. BUt I guess with the collective bargaining agreements, the players union have done a great job. I wonder how some of the retired greats feel now watching this I remember Deion Sanders getting about $5 million a year, and that was huge!

I think Vick will be just as good, if not better this year than last. Of course, I have him in my fantasy team, so that might just be wishful thinking on my part. It is a big contract, but contracts like these will become typical will the new rules. This is just the first of many like this.

Anyway, I'm tentatively excited for this season and my Detroit Lions. I want to hope that they'll finally make the playoffs, but I hope that every year, and they never do.
