Alright, the NFL regular season is finally here! Here's where we'll discuss everything about the games, players, news, etc. I'll also be posting Fantasy League info and standings throughout the season, plus the various Madden Leagues details.

(Commissioners and organizers: Please PM me the info you'd like me to place in the top posts.)

SE++ League of Champeens 2008

News: If you check the League settings, we do start head-to-head action on Week 1 (the day after the Draft.) Also new this year, .5 points per reception. This is in addition to the negative points for botched Field-Goals and Extra Points rule that we incorporated last year. Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Games are 5:00 qtrs, All Pro difficulty (default I believe) and there is a playoff. Unfortunately there are no divisions so everyone has to play everyone else once.

    So join up. Trades are allowed but only with players with a similar amount of games. Meaning if you've played 15 of your games, you can't trade a great player to a forumer who has only played 3 of his in order to help him out.

    I'm reposting my thoughts on the Packers game because I can.

    I'm going to try my best to enjoy that win by the Packers, but it's hard when you consider how poorly they played for most of the 2nd half. Granted they had an amazing first half, they didn't adjust at all, offensively or defensively.

    The offense did almost nothing in the 2nd half, despite many opportunities. The offensive line was to blame for a lot of it, they couldn't run-block for anything. Receivers had trouble catching things that hit them. Rodgers made a few bad throws.

    The defense actually played pretty well considering they were on the field almost the entire 2nd half. Then after Kitna proved that he couldn't stop throwing to Calvin Johnson, the interceptions started, and they didn't stop.

    Amazing first half. Amazing last 5 minutes of the game. Unfortunately they let Detroit score wayyyyy too many points unanswered.

    Still fun to watch. But to have a 21-3 lead at halftime, and actually have the other team be leading late in the 4th qtr, you're not going to win games against opponents that have better QBs than John Kitna.

    I can't decide whether the Bengals or Chiefs will be the worst team this year. It's looking like a tight competition at any rate.

    I don't know if I should watch the Pats game. I don't have a very high tolerance for "HES A KID OUT THERE"

    Okay, Tampa Bay v. Falcons.

    Falcon's have the young team with the rookie qb (who already threw an interception that lead to tampa's touchdown).

    Tampa's got a decent defense against the pass, as opposed to the falcons who are just awful at covering receivers. Although falcons are apparently doing a pretty good job against tampa's attempts at the rush.

    Prediction: Tampa 24, Falcons 10.

    Finally all my angry bitterness has paid off in the physical manifestation of Tom Brady's stupid leg exploding.


    Also the Raiders beat the Chiefs. Our running game is looking really good. It's a shame our passing game isn't coming along as well.

    Eh, they don't want to win so much as Matt Ryan really wants them to have the ball. And one of their touchdowns came from a former falcon.

    So basically the falcon's are beating themselves. Very efficiently.
