The "It's One (Bleep)ing Game and the Season's Still Young" Thread

Giants do not look like the push over we thought they were. Another tough game coming up when we're struggling.

I expected the Giants to be improved, but I am not buying that they are that good. Dallas sucked.

Dallas always sucks though. Giants do look like a contender.

5 teams who won week 1 last year......
Raiders, Bengals, Indy, Arizona, Washington
5 teams who didn't make the postseason.

I understand, but it seemed as soon as he was in horns and started practicing on day one, he had a knee issue. I understand someone needs to pass a physical and I also understand some things are not discovered. Todd Gurley is a good example of that.

It wasn't day 1.

It wasn't day 1.

I’m glad, however, not happy on how it was handled.

The Cardinals looked like a contender Week 1. They are not.

My 2 cents. Last season the Rams looked unbeatable for a short while, but IMO they "peaked" too soon and were not playing their best ball at season's end. They played well, but not at peak performance. I'd rather start with a loss and build momentum from there, although losing to the whiners always sucks

Starting the season off against division rivals on opening Sunday makes more cheese for the league, but I’m not sure it’s necessary in order to get huge ratings that they want so badly.
This is the effing N F L …… ratings are going to be higher opening day, no matter who’s playing who.
Seems to make more sense to be playing those games from about mid season on, when teams have generally settled into who they’re going to be, as a unit.
That would mean possibly even more meaningful, and at the least, likely we’d have better played divisional games overall for many of us fans.

Thats why it was so weird...(and petty?) that the Rams REQUESTED the 49ers for the Aussie game? Lets be honest, we got our comeuppance here and karma might have been in play.
