It's going to be interesting.

Big Ben will be missing for Pittsburgh due to having an emergency appendectomy. He had just recovered from a motorbike accident that nearly killed him.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Come on the Bears ! :D

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

cowboys will win it this year !

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

You could well be right, good defense. As long as TO doesn't have his usual falling out they are in with a shout.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Should have won it last year bit unlucky if you ask me :) but i know for sure this Is are year lol

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Put the coffe pots on ! tonights the night :D :tu: can't wait

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Be interesting to see how the Phins do. If Culpepper can regain his form from a few years ago they could be a force.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Indeed you should be right gazzae :) the show now starts at 1am not 2 :tu:

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Think kick off is at 2. Probably starting at 1 to show the pre game show. Featuring Diddy - formerly P. Diddy, formerly Puff Daddy. Think I'll tune in at 1:55. :)

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Good game hope all of tham are like that !

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Was a good game. Panthers V Falcons and Jaguars V Cowboys up this weekend.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Yup my team's on tv

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

I hope Sky show the Rams @ the Chargers on the 29th October. I'll be in San Diego then and will probably be at the game. :)

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Lucky git how did you get tickets for that ?!

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Well Bledsoe started off where he left last season throwing 3 picks. Abraham was immense for the Jags.
Falcons looked pretty good.

Redskins and Vikings are up tonight (tomorrow morning) on Five.Will have to set the Sky+.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Good win for the Bears 26-0 at Green Bay :D

The first time Green Bay have been "shut out" for 15 years, looks like they could win the division again this season. :D

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

I'm going out to SD to visit a friend and he's getting tickets.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Nice one.

Hoping they bring a game over to the UK soon. Also going to try and get tickets for the Bills next time I am in Canada.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

The Tuesday Morning Quarterback is a good read for a different review of the weeks games.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

3 wins out of 3 for the Bears, looking good so far. :D

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Seattle 6 Chicago 37

Great win for the Bears :tu:

Last seasons NFC champions didn't know what hit them. :D

A great start to the season so far.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

They are live on Sky next weekend against the Bills.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Unfortunately, I don't have a subscription. So it looks like I'll have to make do with the highlights, unless I can find a live stream from somewhere.

Thanks for the info though. :tu:

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

there are 4 count than 4 games on sky tonight 18:00 Chicago v Buffalo and on Interactive Green Bay v St Louis than at 21:05 Philadelphia v Dallas with arizona v kanses city on Interactive

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Buffalo 7 Chicago 40

Another good week for the Bears. :D

The best start for 20 years, though the pessimist in me says the bubble will burst soon. :erm:

Not just yet though. ;) :D

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

i'm amazed how long some of the players have been going - I used to watch American football many moons ago, so when I do catch it and I see someone like Drew Bledsoe, and they have still got the skills - wow! :tu:

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Bledsoe is having a pretty poor year.

His O Line didn't help much last night.

---------- Post added at 14:45 ---------- Previous post was at 14:40 ----------


Da Bears looked pretty good last night.

Looking at their schedule their next 5 games are all against teams with losing records (with the exception of the Giants who are at 500).

I wouldn't be surprised if they end up 10-0. Then you meet the Patriots for a hammering. ;)

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Bledsoe may be having a poor year, but I'm still amazed that he's still playing. hmm, am presently watching the replay of yesterdays game - i see what you mean... no wonder Troy Aikman always looks so smug when they cut to him!

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

The patriots haven't had things all their own way though. They lost at home to Denver in week 3, and only just scraped past buffalo by 2 points, again at home in week 1.


We shall see ! ;) :D

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Oh well, looks like I won't be going to the Chargers/Rams game after all. The cheapest tickets (in what my friend referred to as "the nosebleed seats") were $74. Getting seats where I'd be able to watch the game without the use of binoculars would cost me $150-$300. :(

Going to watch the college football (SDSU Aztecs vs Cal Poly Mustangs) on the Saturday instead. The most expensive ticket for that game is a massive $30 (and they're playing at Qualcomm Stadium for that game). Should still be a great atmosphere.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Wow, what a game that was. San Diego at Cincinnati. Cincinnati where up 28 - 7 at half time and in control. Final score was 49 - 41 to San Diego!

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Ya saw it on sky one of the best games of the season so far ! :)

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

It's Thanksgiving so 3 games on live tonight from 5:30 on SSX

Detroit v Miami
Dallas v Tampa Bay
Kansas v Denver

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Anyone catch the Sunday night game between the Chargers and the Chiefs? It was well worth staying up for, even if I did have to listen to John Madden.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

No didn't see it. The saturday night game between the Cowboys and the Falcons was a cracker. As was Eagles - Giants.
Should be a good game tonight Colts V Bengals.

The Chargers are looking good. Rivers is looking far far better than Manning Jr.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Broncos' cornerback Darrent Williams killed in drive-by shooting

:(

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Not good is it.

Don't know how true they are but they are reports saying it stemed from an arguement in a nightclub over the Broncos not making the playoffs.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

What a great weekend of football. Some great games.

Patriots at the Colts in the AFC Championship game. I predict another Brady Belichick playoff masterpiece and Manning to choke.

Saints at the Bears in the NFC Championship game. As much as I want the Saints to win I think they won't be too fond of the cold and the Bears will win it.

Patriots - Bears Superbowl - rematch of Superbowl XX.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

The Chargers were robbed! Unfortunately it was by their own players. They made far too many stupid mistakes for a playoff team.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

They certainly didn't help themselves with the personal fouls on 4th down and after the TD.

---------- Post added at 15:35 ---------- Previous post was at 15:17 ----------

Did any one notice during the Saints game the blonde girl in the crowd who the producer focused on? He was obviously to busy checking her out to read her tshirt which said, in big letters "F**K DA EAGLES"

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Thats the one

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Well its the Bears against the Colts in the Superbowl
Fair play to Manning, after a shakey start it was a great comeback.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Colts are gonna win it - Manning/Dungee partnership finally comes together.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
 

Hope not.

Colts O v the Bears D with the Bears to win.

Re: 2006 NFL season thread !
