Oh yeah I forgot my annual facepalm over the Faider's chances this season.

Tom Terriffic is starting his 15th season this year. I figure he has at least 5 more seasons in him but hopefully the O-line can protect him this year. Gronk is cleared to play but it looks like they're gonna save him for the regular season figuring that his bad knee will be targeted. Our ramped up defense is expected to shine this year with a leaner Vince Wilfork back from his torn achillies tendon injury. Julian Edleman is looking awesome.

It could be a very good year for us...

I've got great hopes for my Steeler's this year. The way we played to end the season last year has me excited!

At least the first 5 minutes before they pull the starters.
If it was regular season, I'd say we get a little bet going, but it's preseason.

Broncos make a statement.

Note to Broncos, you picked the wrong game to make a statement.
I was kinda surprised Manning and Wilson played as long as they did.

Looking forward to a bounce back year from the Packers, they seem to have depth at most positions and I like what they
have done on defense.

Long season though with many ebbs and flows ......

Challenge accepted. Loser drinks the difference in score in bottles of Fosters.

Any thoughts on Johnny Football's performance. I only saw his first drive.

Sadly it was a pre-season game. Bet nullified.
