NFL 2016 Discussion Thread - Ready for Some Football

Go Hawks!

I find it ironic her name is Ariana Grande yet she's so tiny.

So excited. Any football is good football.

But Patriots football is best football, just for the record. ;)

Whooo nice stop seahawks. Schoefield has looked good this preseason, expect big things from that guy.

I can't wait to see what the Patriots defense does with Wilfork and Mayo both back and healthy and Revis shutting down receivers.

Yes football is back! The best five months of the year.

Awesome, let's get this game between two good teams overwith so I won't feel guilty if I miss watching the worst two teams of 2013 this Sunday. Ah, to be a Skins fan.

Damnit Mike Daniels, he tried to block a punt and instead gave the Seahawks a first down which then lead to a field goal,

Come on Earl!

Touchdown Hawks!

That's what I want to see! What a fake out!

Nice TD by Beast Mode.

Current score: 17-10 Seahawks.

wow! three commercial breaks in a row! No wonder people say American Football is boring. I just want watch football dammit!

I think a nice little Pick 6 to end the half would be just dandy (one time!)

I've liked what I have seen from the Seahawks so far. Really concerned about the punt return situation I know Earl is new to the position and it takes time to grow but muff punt and a possible turnover with the last one.

Halftime: Seahawks 17-10.

Texans are going to the Super Bowl!!!!

.....whats that?? We dont have a QB??? Well shit :(

What are you taliking about? You guys have Case Ke... oh wait.

@mems1224: You've got two guys named Ryan who can allegedly throw footballs. That's a thing I guess?

My Skins have a QB with a little too much confidence that will probably get him killed halfway through the season, and a backup who is even worse when starting in a not-preseason game..

Int Maxwell leads to a field goal. Seahawks up 20-10.

They aren't throwing to Sherman so Maxwell is bound to make them pay.

any of these dudes are better than schuab. cant believe they wasted so many years on him. i hope case does well though. gotta root for a fellow coog

Mallet was backup to Brady last year in NE, so he's familiar with what Bill O'Brien runs over there. Not sure about the other guy but it sounds like he might be the QB they will try and develop.

- What a sack by Cliff Avril on 4th down!

Man, Seattle's secondary is scary

@mems1224: Yeah, Maxwell is a free agent next year I believe it's going to be hard to keep him in Seattle next year.

Nice stop by the GB Packers defense on that last play.

As a Seahawks fan with a hardcore Packers fan of a sister-in-law, let's just say I'm glad I'm not visiting my brother right now.

Fumble to safety!

In the words of Deion Sanders, "Russ just give'em that baby stiff arm".

Beast Mode with his 2nd Touchdown of the game!

Hawks up 29-10.

That holding call really saved this drive. Thank you Packers player.

So, Seattle's still pretty damn good.

Kinda disappointed we haven't seen any Paul Richardson for the Seahawks in the game. I think he'll become a really good Wideout.

- DC with the touchdown.

@jay_ray: who knows, early in the season and everyone knows any enemy to a good football team is injuries at key spots.

4&1 go for it touchdown!

36-16

Looks like a wrap folks.

Nice to see that the Seahawks had a better opening game than UW, but that's easy to have happen.

@i_stay_puft: Of course injuries could derail them but if nothing changes Seattle is looking like the team to beat. Though just like last year the 49ers maybe their biggest competition.

We still got question marks at Punt Returner and our 3rd down situation defensive line doesn't look that dynamic compared to last year. I like seeing Bryan Walters returning punts over Earl Thomas just because he's a little bit more sure handed. He fumbled once during the preseason but I'd rather see him punt returning over our all-pro safety Earl Thomas. With the defensive line we lost Big Red Bryant, Chris Clemons and Bruce Irvin is still returning from his injury. Alot of speed and talent lost.

wilson > a. rog

@mems1224: Nah, you guys got Tom Brady's crappy backup! You're set!

@dochaus: it's insane to watch RG3 unable or unwilling to slide. Dude runs like he wants to get hurt

Josh Gordon Might have a reduced suspension. It might even be thrown out all-together. Pick him up on yo fantasy team, dawgs!

Cannot wait to sit on my butt all day eating and drinking far too much with the return of Scott Hanson and the Red Zone.

I'm gonna name my band that.

I'm kinda interested to see the saints d this year and how it'll stack up this year with byrd added, cowboys and 49ers, and if RG3 has learned how to slide. Football!

If the preseason is any indication, nope!

Quick question which NFL morning pre-game show do you guys prefer?

* nfl network

* fox

* CBS

Trying to give CBS a shot since they added some new people but listening to Deion, sapp, and Irvin talk on NFL network makes the coverage more entertaining. Also they do the whole wolf howl thing when they're lone wolfing it.

@i_stay_puft Love NFL Network Pregame....can't beat the madness. Nothing beats Mooch howling out a lone wolf

I flip back and forth between NFL network and ESPN. Usually enjoying NFL networks coverage more.

@noboners: Ah yeah can't forget Chris Berman and those drunken rants on espn.

Foot BALLLLLL. Packers game was interesting up until the safety; don't really care about other games this week but the new "draft now" button on nfl.com is pretty neat.

- The Saints look pretty damn good, Jarius Byrd is already paying dividend to the Saints with that force fumble on Julio.

- Can you say upset Sunday? I smell an upset between the Jags and Philly.

I'm not sure if Miami's offense is weak or the Patriots defense is great. An INT and fumble so far.

Eagles losing by 17 to the Jags.

Christmas has come early.
