That game was painful enough to watch first time around. Dont think I could watch LSU blowing it so bad again.

Saints @ Patriots tonight. the two best QB's in the league. Probably both only in for about 1 series.

I think Brady went in for like 8 snaps last year all preseason, wouldn't expect him in much at all tonight.

***Sylar*** · 10-08-2012 05:33 AM

Haven't seen any highlights yet, but an impressive defensive start by the sounds of it for us, edging out New Orleans 7-6 at Foxborough. Sure enough, Brady and Brees took a series each by the reports.

Some of the other scores:

Denver 31-3 Chicago
Green Bay 13-21 San Diego
Baltimore 31-17 Atlanta
New Orleans 6-7 New England
Pittsburgh 23-24 Philadelphia
Washington 7-6 Buffalo

Like their Brady haircuts. You looking forward to the big kick off tonight against the Bengals? Holmes and Kerley are both out so should see a fair bit of Stephen Hill which will be interesting. We've also signed some back up to Sanchez apparently from Denver and he'll probably get a look in at some point. His name escapes me though

I've no interest if I'm honest. Has it kicked off or is it later tonight? I'm expecting good things from Hill but given our O, who knows. I fully expect this year to go back to the norm in that we will be lucky to make the playoffs. The whole going back to the run game baffles me when Greene is our number 1 RB. I'm afraid he's just not up to it. Cro switching to safety is the most interesting one. If it comes off then great but if not, I fear the worst. I've said it the last couple of years but we really struggle against strong TE'S which is one of the reasons the Patsies hurt us. As for Tebow, expect him to feature a lot, more than some people think. I don't agree with it as there is a good QB in Sanchez somewhere but expect Tebow to be starting by week 4/5.

So fellow Patriots - it seems Plaxico Burress is working out with us just now...

Thoughts?

If it works, great. I hope it doesn't end up shooting himself in the foot....

**Haymaker** · 13-08-2012 12:23 AM

Andrew Luck posted some good scores today for the C****, sorry, Colts. It was a pre-season game and obviously it was against the Rams but still.

***Calvin*** · 13-08-2012 12:41 AM

Yeah Luck did look good, but one can't read much into pre-season.

I see that Chad Johnson (Ochocinco) has been released by the Dolphins because of his domestic violence arrest.

Dam, was enjoying watching him on hard knocks. the boy is crazy.

How dull must the Dallas vs Oakland pre-season game have been (unless you're a huge fan of defense football I guess):

Final: Dallas 3-0 Oakland

That's the exact same argument as my American friends use against football matches that end up 1-0 or 0-0. It could have still been a good game. Maybe.

To your point, 3-0 sounds pretty bad. Or good.

**DH1875** · 14-08-2012 05:08 PM

Just noticed that the Rams have pulled out of next year and the year after. Can only be a good thing if you ask me

They only pulled out of playing in London, right?

***Sylar*** · 14-08-2012 05:50 PM

Wonder if St Louis are about to lose their NFL franchise then

**DH1875** · 16-08-2012 03:18 PM

How much is a replica jersey in the states these days? Nike have set an RRP of £70 a jersey over here

. No chance I'm paying that.

Back to LA.

Back to LA.

Was certainly the rumour when the NFL game this year was in doubt

**Haymaker** · 16-08-2012 09:00 PM

LA is a good shout but why did the leave in the first place?

***Sylar*** · 17-08-2012 11:07 AM

Further pre-season wins last night for Cleveland (35-10 over Green Bay) and Cincinnati (24-19 over Atlanta).

Nah, not yet anyway. Rodgers looked comfortable in the short space he did play last night but the rookie QB was all over the place (going on the short highlights I seen anyway).

Hard to gauge anything from pre-season as a lot of the newer players are tested and new plays/coaches try things out.

Politics and money. Basically they were the worst team in the league and their crowds were dropping year after year. They were playing in Anaheim and wanted the city to build them a new stadium. They were told to bolt and the Rams owners tried to call their bluff and said they were moving to Baltimore. LA wouldn't budge and then St Louis said they would build them a new stadium and put other other offers and promises on the table. Rams owner took them up on their offer.

**Haymaker** · 17-08-2012 03:12 PM

Doubt a return would be on the cards unless the city decides to build them a stadium.

Still can't get my head round teams moving cities.

**DH1875** · 17-08-2012 03:20 PM

Did anyone watch the programme with the Buckeyes in it on ESPN last night? Didn't even know it was on, was it any good?
