I hope the Wallace thing works out in the end. Dam three good young WR Wallace/Sanders/Brown. Hope the new line will do it's job so Ben is not running for his life again.

No more 5 wide with Bruce Arians or 3rd and 1.

I heard Big Ben hurt the same ankle again.

Yes one of Ben's teammates stepped on it again.

T.O. signed with Seattle

...waiting for "the wave" to be replaced with spontaneous salsa dancing at Giants stadium...

3rd and 1 was always give it to Bettis

I want a name

I'm hoping that RG3 has a good showing and that TO's stint with the Seahawks

goes well too. Otherwise, I'm standing where I normally stand: rooting for

the '9ers and hoping New England and/or the Giants lose every game.

I always enjoy the Niners losing. Always have. Except when it helps the RAIDERS.

NE and NYG should both win at least nine games, but G-Men may not make the postseason.

So,who's planning to go to any games? Did anyone get their season tix yet?

Since I'm in VA, I'm in between the Washington Redskins and North Carolina Panthers territory. Since I hate the Redskins, I'll probably opt for going to a Panther's game instead..that is if they play my legendary Cowboys of course.

I'm hoping Jake Cutler can actually finish the Bears season standing upright. If he can, the Bears might do well this season. Of course they are still coached by Lovie 3 career playoff wins Smith, so I'll have 2 temper my expectations.

Both NY teams play their first pre-season games Friday night. I want to see what these Giant rookie WRs & RBs can do.

Sorry i meant to say no more 5 wide with Bruce Arians on 3rd and 1.

Seems like his favorite plays were Mike Wallace wide left and Mike

Wallace wide right.

You aren't closer to Baltimore than Carolina? I have a cousin in DC and he says

there is a little rivalry with Raven and Redskin fans. These damn Panther fans are

starting to get a little irritating round here and they haven't done anything yet.

I'm trying to get to Heinz Field Sept. 16 Steelers vs Jets.

Hmm, yeah I guess I am closer to Baltimore than Carolina...but somehow I just prefer Charlotte. I like visiting that city. Aww snap! Just looked at the Cowboys schedule and they play the Panthers in Charlotte on 10/21!!! I think I need to make that one.

Ryan Matthews out 4-6 weeks. Broken clavicle.

Peyton's looking great in his first game,picking Chicago apart... If Vick's injury is serious, Eagles are done...I hope not...

Hopefully it's just a sprain, this is why I HATE the preseason

That could have easily happened in a regular season game and even moreso. The

first and last preseason games the starters are barely playing. Unfortunately Vick

has just been fragile and unlucky. The starters get their most extensive work playing

in the second and 3rd preseason games and usually for less than a half. You have

to have these preseason games to evaluate your young talent, rookies and undrafted

free agents.

I know why the preseason's neccessary, it still doesn't change the fact that I HATE IT!!!! lol!

I feel bad for Sanchez - look at who the Jets surrounded him. Aside from Holmes, who are the playmakers? Who scares the defense? Now Rex Ryan says he's open to using Tebow more to make up for the weaknesses in the o-line. What a hot mess.

Plax is working out for the Patriots.

Sanchez sucks. Wouldn't matter what team he was on, or who he was surrounded with.

I know it's just preseason but damn Andrew Luck got a gun on

him. I think he's gonna do well.

He went to two straight AFC title games when the Jets had a solid o-line and ground attack. He did make big plays during both playoff runs. Last season the line was shit, which falls on the front office. And nothing has changed. Tom Brady couldn't do anything behind that line.

Their line was inconsistent but weren't Nick Mangold and D Brickashaw Ferguson

Pro Bowlers last season.
