San Francisco, huh? That's ballsy. I think Houston will contend for a playoff spot this year.

Anyone know if there is a NSBB pick em poll again this year?

Of course, thank you.

Titans/Steelers is going to be tough. The Titans won fairly easily last year, but I don't think that will mean all that much going into this game.

 

I'm not entirely sure what to expect - outside of physical run games and great defenses - but I'm looking forward to seeing the slimmed down LenDale and how Kenny Britt does in his first real NFL game.

 

I think the Titans win, but it'll be really close.

I don't understand why everyone is picking the 49ers to do any worse than last year. They were 7-9 last year and 5-3 once Singletary was hired and ordered Hill to be the starter. I'm not saying Hill is anything above an average QB but with him our offense stays on the field long enough to allow our defense to shine. Also we have a great running attack with Gore, Coffee and an O-line built for run blocking. They have almost the same exact team as last year. Last year they were one of the youngest teams so one more year of experience plus Hill and a offense built to our strengths means we should only do better.

 

Oh and 5 of those 8 games Hill started were on the road.

Because the loss of J.T. O'Sullivan will be too much for the 49ers to overcome.

I also made a post about it in Social. I figured that between those two forums most interested people would see it.

seriously, though, what is mike tomlin's job description, i mean, other than watching a team he has no direct input into win a super bowl?

[David]

He gets to be the cool young guy coach

[Banedon]

His job is to look like Omar Epps, and he's very, very good at it.

some NFL Players go visit the Lions (The Onion)

Unfortunately I don't think that distribution map on The506 is right. My directv guide says we are getting Dallas-Tampa on Sunday, not Minnesota-Cleveland.

[Andy]

Won't get to watch the Browns/Vikes because of the stupid Colts exclusivity rule in Indy. :x

Better go get all your friends to buy tickets Rocket.

I love how the Browns are keeping it a secret on who the QB is going to be.

 

Yeah, like the Vikings are sitting there on pins and needles over Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson :roll:

And the thing about it is there's really no difference in prep for either.

 

He did finally announce this afternoon that it will be Quinn.

I like how Mangini is keeping the secret from his own team moreso keeping it secret from Minnesota.

Didn't click the link, but I'm guessing they're more than 3 tickets away from a sell out.

Having Brady and Anderson on that team is detrimental IMO. It's even worse that they have waited this long into the offseason/start of the season to name one a starter. There has to be little to no continuity on that team and overall low confidence between players there, as they don't know who the "guy" is and probably both Brady and Quinn have guys on their side and against them in that lockeroom.

Do any of the players support Derek or Anderson?
